Meanwhile over on the other place, rightwing free speech warriors (this guy is a former DeSantis campaign staffer) are calling for me to be denaturalized and deported because they don’t like my political speech. This is what fascism and racism looks like, folks.

These are e most important #s for the Dems. They should be tracking all local media and influencers in these states and reposting it everywhere

The economic pain tariffs can indlict on red states need to be talked about more than anything else right now. It will flip voters.

As I head into the work-week, I hope to hear from you.

My oath is to the Constitution. I have a responsibility to ACT to defend what is right. I will hold myself accountable. I won’t be able to report it all due to anonymity but will try.

Can you share— what do you see as your responsibility?

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

I’m doing this cool thing where when I see a politician standing up against authoritarianism (especially if they’re standing alone), I go to their website and donate money to them.

Thou shalt not claim to be improving efficiency when all you do is fire people and then beg them to come back.

I've been thinking a lot about that bumper sticker which says "everything looks like a conspiracy theory when you don't understand how anything works" and folks it's pretty obvious to me that the people in power right now have absolutely no desire to understand how anything works.

After firing federal workers at the CDC, some 180 of them have received emails begging them to come back to work.

"Read this e-mail immediately" was the subject line according to the AP.

So much government efficiency going on.

What a joke.

I was just an Education Department guy under Reagan and the most junior WH senior staffer under G.H.W. Bush, so what do I know? But if I were an ex-president, and the current president were executing the most disastrous turn in American foreign policy in 80 years, I think I might say something?

Everyone has things in their career of which they're ashamed.

Nothing...and I mean nothing...in my career in politics makes me more ashamed and regretful than supporting and promoting Marco Rubio.

He is the most craven betrayer of his stated ideals of any human I've ever met.

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

Our next president will have to be technologically competent, at least , in order for us to sustain our place in the world.

This will become increasingly obvious over the next 4 years as AI gets more powerful

This isn’t necessarily bad. Truly. Done right, we will be a better, more equal society
