"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work.

Today missed being Easter by 22 minutes.

Gregorian Calendar’s definition: First Sunday after the first Full Moon after the March Equinox. If the Full Moon had occurred 22 minutes earlier, landing yesterday (GMT), then today would have been that first Sunday.

I don’t know this representative but her analysis is dead on. The entire GOP is the enemy of the rest of us and in the pocket of the rich.

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to own, buy, and sell individual stocks.

We need to ban congressional stock trading—and I've got a bill for that.

FACT-CHECK: TRUE —- @RepTimBurchett does this for attention every time, then caves faster than Trump does on tariffs.

If he actually cared about the debt he wouldn’t be backing Trump’s trillions in Tax cuts for the richest.
