HAPPENING NOW: I’m hosting my fifth Shadow Hearing, focusing today on Trump’s detention abuses.
The administration is kidnapping and disappearing immigrants to detention centers with absolutely horrific conditions. If Republicans won’t conduct oversight, we will.

Revised headline & sub are worse. "Let's not be nostalgic for the time Epstein ran rampant thru NY FL NM etc. Let's talk about the time when NYC was ruled by cool, rich power players." When wasn't that the case? And the outcome was always exposure of punished or unpunished corruption. #BrokenTimes

Just when you think Billie Holiday photographs have become so infinitely replicated, like Einstein or Marilyn, that you can't really see her anymore.

As of this morning, it is imperative that the Democratic caucus in the senate remove Schumer as Minority Leader, Durbin as minority whip and Cortez Masto as Vice Chair of Outreach.
Replace them today with Van Hollen, Murphy and Merkley. Or anyone else who actually knows how to lead and discipline.

Warning to the feds: if Trump sends soldiers to NYC, we have very varied sandwich options at our disposal. You will encounter a fusillade of bahm mi, BEC, gyro, chop cheese, BLT, doubles, lox bagel, croque-madame, torta and döner.
Hell, half a Katz’s pastrami on rye could wipe out a couple of guys.

This struck me as one of the best instances I've seen of a Dem politician—in this case, @joeneguse.bsky.social—taking a badly-framed press question & both *calling it out* as a badly-framed question & answering it with passion & smarts.

WTF is the point of the Sunday morning shows?! No one EVER pushes back in a meaningful way - they just let these awful people vomit lies all over the place. Maybe they’ll have a lame rebuttal in a separate segment but in general it’s all just bullshit from both sides.

This is an unprovoked assault. These people are not soldiers, they are not law enforcement officers, they are not in Portland to protect anyone. They are lawless, cosplaying thugs and I hope like hell they’re eventually held responsible.
Federal officer blasts chemical spray into vocal but nonviolent Portland protester, video shows
The interaction illustrates how federal law enforcement officers do use aggressive tactics against protesters who yell and needle officers but don’t appear to present clear physical threats.

Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

this thread started here and landed with a history lesson about egyptian cotton. a literal "today i learned."
US farmers are saying they "just need temporary help, until things get better."
Here's the thing. US farm exports- which are mostly soy- CANNOT get better.
Other countries expanded their soy industries to fill China's demand.
We've walled ourselves out of the global market, folks. This is it.

Trump just called American citizens “the enemy within,” encouraging the men and women of the armed forces to use OUR cities as military training grounds.
It’s time to wake up, put aside our differences, and create a united front to oppose Trump’s unconstitutional and illegal abuse of power.

This is amazing. I want to learn more about her. She makes me think of Andrea Gibson, who I only learned about in the last year or so bc of Tig and the doc she made. Women and the queer community. We persevere because we have to. We know how to lift each other so all boats rise.

Illinois State Senator Karina Villa sprang into action to protect her community from ICE raids, alerting neighbors to their rights and chasing off masked agents. This is how you stand up to authoritarianism. We should all be inspired by Sen. Villa's courage.
