“What did they have that eludes their lesser-known heirs today? The answer is that Kissinger & Brzezinski were immigrants. Newcomers often value America’s freedoms more than its native-born and are statistically far likelier to start companies, win Nobel Prizes & launch schools of thought.”

Tonight, a Democratic candidate became the first Democrat to win the county in a federal election race since 1992. A simply stunning result. Trump won FL-1 by 37 points. Republicans have easily routed Democrats in Pensacola’s Escambia County for over 30 years. Not tonight.

Amy Coney Barrett's writings on the court give the impression of a law professor turned judge who is often exasperated by her fellow conservatives’ shoddy reasoning and corner-cutting.

The US has recklessly run up over $30 trillion in debt since 2001. When I left Congress that year, we had 4 consecutive years of balanced budgets and a surplus of $155 Billion. Today? A $36 Trillion debt and $20T more over the next decade. Catastrophic.

November brought a 6% shift nationally towards Trump. But in Wisconsin, it was only 1.5%.
At the same time, we reelected Tammy Baldwin to the Senate and flipped 14 state legislative seats.

Kash Patel said he'd “come after” journalists in a podcast last year.
Now that he's in the running to lead the FBI, the comment is troubling both sides of the aisle and may become a central point of contention if he comes up for Senate confirmation.

Kash Patel once said he would 'come after' journalists. It now hangs over his FBI candidacy.
Trump's pick for FBI director has vowed to "come after" the media. But he also later emphasized to NBC News that his comments only apply if people "broke the law."

Most of Trump's nominees are perfectly normal & deserve confirmation. But some--Hegseth, Gabbard, Patel, RFK, Jr., etc.--are not only dangerous, they'll be bad news for Trump & the GOP. Trump supporters need to stop them. Dems need to do what they can to help.

I was invited to speak about the upcoming Trump era and share some lessons and optimism. I declined politely. After more than 25 years of researching the far right, I have no more (new) lessons and optimism to share.
