As his approval sinks, Trump will turn to the emotion from which his power derives: fear.
Fear closes us off from each other, weakens what is our strength, deprives us of our future and only serves to secure his.
The antidote is hope. An autocrat cannot defeat a hopeful people. Hold fast to it.

#HappyPublicLandsDay! Today, I celebrate the San Gabriel Mountains National Monument, where millions of Angelenos can hike, explore, and connect with nature close to home.

Previous generations fought fascism in nearly every corner of the earth. Today it’s on our streets, silencing opposition and attempting to control the airwaves.
The GOP has declared all out war on free speech. It’s up to us to fight for it.

I LOVE the sandwich references 🤣🤣🤣
It’s extremely rare for a grand jury to decline to take indictment. Twice in the same case suggest prosecutors can’t read the room—this grand jury is refusing to indict their ham sandwich. That doesn’t bode well for their Subway sub.
BREAKING: Federal prosecutors said today they went to a grand jury twice to indict a D.C. woman for assaulting an FBI agent during an arrest by ICE — and were twice rejected.
Notably, she faces the same charge as the District's alleged sandwich thrower.
