This is not a group of people who dislikes Democratic voters and ideas. This is a group of people who dislike the leadership of the party— *because* they hate Trump far more.
“Weak” “paralyzed” “afraid”… they are expressing a desire for fighters and leaders that will harness the public energy.

Flanagan is the real deal. Her opponent Angie Craig gets money from Chuck Schumer and corporate PACs. Craig also voted to thank ICE for its service a few months ago(!). I know Minnesotans are going to back the fighter in this race, and you can back her here: secure.actblue.com/donate/pf-web
In this moment, we need leaders who will stand up to our wannabe, Donald Trump, not vote alongside him.
No one knows that better than @indivisible.org and the @mnindivisible.bsky.social. That's why I'm so proud to have earned their endorsement.

Lawsuits, Ibogaine, and AI
This week, Missouri's legislature is hearing bills on treating mental health conditions with psychoactive substances, reducing the time plaintiffs have to bring lawsuits, liability for using AI, and a lot more. Which bills are you following?

Health boss RFK Jr.'s 1-year anniversary week was packed with new disasters and reminders of old ones. But even those who should care most are MIA. GOP senators Bill Cassidy (a doctor) and Mitch McConnell (a polio survivor) top my list. My latest at @thebulwark.com open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

When you’re a republican they let you do it.
Thomas Albus, a federal prosecutor from Missouri, authorized the seizure of roughly 700 boxes of election material in Georgia — far outside of his usual jurisdiction.
Former U.S. attorneys say that type of authority is rare.

Similarly, JD Vance claiming Scots-Irish heritage seems to have missed the point that the Scots-Irish as a group were largely despised in Ireland as usurpers of traditional Irish landowners serving the crown. Their traditions of discrimination against Catholics fueled the Troubles.
