I’m launching a new portal for anyone who wants to expose corruption, abuses of power, and threats to public safety with the legal protections of being a whistleblower.

I found this playlist right before the election and it has been in very heavy rotation since. It’s like my own little meditation that someone, somewhere, smarter than I am, has all the answers to what we are up against and will surface them.

AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

Commentary: "Without meaningful campaign finance reform — and a Supreme Court that will uphold those reforms — the erosion of our democracy will only accelerate."
