Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.

I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.

Remind you of anyone?

On April 18, the Old North Church—where two lanterns once sparked the American revolution—will ring its bells for democracy.

I hope houses of worship across the country will join them in this nationwide call to protect our freedom.

Learn how your congregation can take part.

Any traders with inside information that Trump was going to walk back his tariffs — some of them, presumably, Trump family members and cronies — just made a fortune.

It all feels like chaos until you look more closely at who is winning.

Hi folks: Facebook appears to be taking down my posts. Please remember they are available for free here (no paywall), and can be received by email (also free-- just don't put in your credit card information). I guess if I'm being banned I'm doing something right?
The government ignored his protective legal status & deported Abrego Garcia. “Now they claim that the court is powerless to order any relief. If that’s true, the immigration laws are meaningless because the government can deport ANYONE & no court can do anything about it once it’s done.”

Thank you Senator Cory Booker. This guy truly cares about the people he represents.
"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

I just got off the Senate floor where I joined Senator Booker who has been speaking since last night. His words remind us: this is not a left or right moment—it’s a right or wrong moment. We must stand up and fight back.

Let’s face it. Getting rid of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is to make way for less qualified white men to take positions they don’t deserve.

Despicable.
To recap, Trump:

-Forced out the FAA chief at Musk's insistence
-Imposed a hiring freeze that reportedly included air traffic controllers
-Fired the TSA head and gutted a key aviation safety committee
-Blamed the DCA crash on DEI

This is disastrous leadership.

We are 8 days into Trump’s chaos, but there are some absolute bright spots: outspoken, forceful, determined leaders, who will never cower to Donald. If we want to beat Trump and maga, these are the types of champions we’ll need to rally behind.
These Democrats Aren't Afraid Of Trump. Not One Bit.
Onward.
