Q: "How do you respond to Governor Newsom?"
Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."

If New York passes a mask ban in its budget bill, that would very much break with the fact that Democrats in North Carolina were against a mask ban, as it leads to harassment of those wearing them.

I’ve been complaining about universities failing to fight back on these lawless Title VI funding cut offs, but had missed this suit by @aaup (of which I am a member) and the American Federation of Teachers. Very heartening protectdemocracy.org/work/stoppin...
Stopping the Trump administration’s use of funding cuts to coerce speech restrictions at universities - Protect Democracy

It really is bizarre that they think tens of thousands of people paid to protest but they can't produce a single person who received money. Meanwhile, they have no concerns with Elon Musk paying voters.
Nevada Republican Governor Joe Lombardo at a private dinner: "And those stupid protests that occur in the state capital and is paid by the Democratic Party. That momentum and those crowds sizes isn’t because they're pissed...It’s because they're getting paid. So don’t lose sight of that."

Trump sold a bunch of people into slavery in El Salvador—under false pretenses if that matters to you—and when a federal judge told him to reverse that, Trump unlawfully refused, and now the Supreme Court needs to give it a think; apparently they think selling kidnap victims into slavery has merit.

A new high: 62% chance of a recession this year. For no reason. A self-inflicted wound.
Basically Trump is Cheddar Bob waving a gun around and shooting himself in the ****.

There's something about seeing it visually over time that chills the blood. It's hard to process that when we made the jump from 2022 to 2023, it still wasn't enough to convince people this was serious. Before Trump was re-inaugurated gender-affirming care was banned in more than 50% of the country.

I think it’s really good that people are protesting in their own states and cities because it shows that these protests are community driven. Americans can fix this authoritarian slide. They can fix it, but running for office in their own cities and towns. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.

What we're seeing at #handsoff protests nationwide today and what we saw at the ballot box on Tuesday are not unrelated. The public is furious. It will not be silenced. And those who side with Trump and Musk—or refuse to fight back—will be swept out of office.
