Every major Dem politician needs to realize that, in this environment, they can schedule a "speech to the nation," like Newsom did, and get tons of media coverage.

Just do it.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

The amount of Jew-hatred disguised as intellectual discourse is truly horrifying and sickening. And it’s very dangerous.

On Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s birthday, indulge in the cinematic world of the German iconoclast — seen here in Wim Wenders’s ROOM 666.

Have a Fassbinder marathon on the channel — we’ve have more than 20 of his films now playing. 🖤 bit.ly/3N5ZAqB

If you have a Republican senator please take the time to call and write them. Regularly. They won't care about the cruelty, so hammer them on the deficit. Tell them the only way to avoid bankrupting the country is to ditch the tax cuts for billionaires.

Stephen Miller is truly one of the most craven, awful, horrifying people I have reported on in my life. It is a blight on our nation so long as he has any power.

I’ve seen estimates as high as 5+ million for total #handsoff portests today, and just doing a very rough count of the biggest ones, it certain seems like in the millions.

I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff

What’s most clear to me tonight is that this is just the beginning, that Americans across this country, no matter their title or party, are ready to be heard.

I believe that history will show we rose to meet this moment.

“Arlington National Cemetery has scrubbed from its website information and educational materials about the history of black and female service members” is the most shameful, disgraceful, dangerous thing I’ve read in the last 24 hours. #impeachtrumpvance

🪦 New Yorkers are in front of the New York Stock Exchange for a mass die-in to symbolize how these devastating cuts will destroy families & take lives.

Deep spending cuts to programs like healthcare, food assistance, and education is a matter of life & death for millions.

Ronald Reagan called Social Security “a secure and stable base.”

Elon Musk calls it a “Ponzi scheme.”

@barbmcquade.bsky.social calls it what it is: a lifeline—flawed but essential—that keeps millions out of poverty and ensures retirees see the returns on their investment
Elon Musk's social insecurity
The billionaire's reckless claims seem intended to manufacture outrage to justify an end to what he refers to as an “entitlement program.”

On this 60th anniversary of #BloodySunday, we remember the men and women who were beaten, tear gassed, and risked their lives on the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama to secure voting rights for all — including my dear friend John Lewis.

Moulton: He doesn’t have any sons or daughters who served in the military after 9/11. If just one of them had signed up, maybe he would know that we served on the ground alongside Canadian troops, French troops, troops from the UK, the Danes, the Poles—And you know, they lost a lot of lives there
