So many INSISTED there was nothing to worry about (& were *so* angry at people who did worry). We discuss why.

Harvard Law professor Michael Klarman gave an inspiring lecture about the need for lawyers to protect democracy. I was honored that he noted the attacks and threats aimed at me. His words serve to steel my spine and make me more committed than ever to fighting for democracy.
Thank you professor.🙏

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.
Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

I'm watching CNBC. These anchors are so angry. They really didn't believe he'd do it. They're actually just now, 10 years into this shit, realizing he's a maniac hellbent on revenge and there's no grand plan for the markets. Better late than never but holy shit.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.
No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

He made genuinely “good trouble.”
During his brilliant record-breaking filibuster, he asked “Where does the Constitution live, on paper or in our hearts?”
All of us are called in our own way to answer that question by our actions, not just our words.

FYI, I know you are all upset & I’m devastated. We’ve tried to mobilize people from all over to get the Senate Dems to do what’s right.
