Insane to me that Allred moderated on trans issues, outperformed Harris by 4, and people are saying he shouldn't even CONSIDER running in 26 against cornyn/paxton. He ran the more moderate playbook and saw results! Imagine a blue year and a more refined and aggressive campaign against Paxton!

Authoritarians govern through fear, not legislation. The simple fear of what they would do in certain situations can push even the opposition to capitulate. That’s success for them.
We lose when we fold due to a hypothetical. We win when we challenge the REALITY that is hurting working people.

Its time for Schumer to resign
Schumer tells me Republicans might try to jam Democrats again in September, but thinks Trump will be less popular then and Republican appropriators might be more willing to stand up to him. He said they refused to do so now.

@schumer.senate.gov If you vote for cloture you are a stain on this country’s history that will never go away. You are willingly passing power to a tyrant in waiting, and you are a disgrace to every oath of office any senator has ever sworn. Your legacy will be one of cowardice and contempt.

A republic, if you can keep it
one thing i keep thinking about is how there is simply no way to design a constitutional system that can resist authoritarian incursion if participants in that system do not actually care that much

Sam Seder is right btw; unless you're a billionaire, religious fundamentalist, or a xenophobic nationalist voting for Trump was a mistake

the reason why it is important to say that the illegal actions taken by this lawless administration are, in fact, illegal is because
1) it's true
2) it sets the narrative for setting things right

just so everyone's aware there is absolutely zero legal authority for the State Department to revoke a green card
that's not a real thing that exists, they're just trying to disappear someone they don't like and hope nobody cares enough to stop them

I don't care what the protesters are saying, this is the United States of America. The first amendment is first for a reason. Disgraceful

Its crazy that we have people should understand the economics pushing this "economic blackout." Like going a day without shopping is normal. That's not a boycott or going to do anything. And economy wide? This is just absurd. Boycotts work when they're targeted and durable. Not fleeting and broad
