As darkness falls on Thanksgiving day, one last thought in the spirit of Thanksgiving:

Illegitimi non carborundum.

I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired.

If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution.

To all the weirdos defending Megyn Kelly: 15 year olds are underage, and that is statutory rape.

Pretty simple

@altfaa.altgov.info Has anyone done a statistical analysis of flight cnx rates on a city and city pair basis? Anecdotally (I’ve been stuck in Montreal trying to get to Boston for 3 days), it seems like Canadian operators and blue cities are being inordinately affected…

One of my favorite photos I took today—in the heart of Chicago on Michigan Ave.. You can count many American flags, Chicago flags, pro democracy signs, & anti-fascist signs.

0 flags to a politician, confederacy, or Nazis. MAGAs claim patriotism—but its anti-fascist Americans who actually embody it.

@governor.ca.gov @govpritzker.illinois.gov Thanks for standing up for us and against all this craziness! This is exactly what we need from our Democratic leaders!

Make Chris Murphy Senate minority leader, Jasmine Crockett House minority leader. Then watch the sparks fly.

@massago.bsky.social Reupping this after seeing what happened in Worcester yesterday.
Some of us also want to know if any state or local agencies assisted or facilitated this travesty, and if they did, what you and Gov Healey are going to do about that…

do you think Cory Booker can make it for 3 years and about 10 months longer?

Corey Booker is right. At some point someone is going to have to do something or we lose it all.

I couldn’t make it to a Tesla dealer to protest today, so I satisfied myself by flipping off a Wankpanzer…

I keep saying Dems need to do a daily briefing on Capitol Hill and fill the void, fact check the WH. Hire Pete Buttigeig and give him a staff to do this.

Trump wants States to handle natural disasters, saying FEMA is a disaster.

The disaster is Trump.

Guess it’s time for California, the fifth largest economy in the world, to stop funding red states — along with a multitude of other Blue states. How about that!?
