So… this was supposed to be about Paul Revere’s ride, but the Senator just unloaded about the Trump administration and its Republican enablers. Far more newsworthy than I expected. (You can probably see me shifting to “crap, this was not the interview I prepped!” but the result was memorable.)

Not sure if this has been shared here yet, but this is video of Rumeysa Ozturk's arrest posted by WCVB. It's terrifying.

There was a reason they attacked DEI first. It's because white christian male supremacist views are core to their movement. Dems should, contrary to the advice of some reflexive compromisers among us, respond by picking up the fallen banner of equality & opportunity. We should proudly champion it.

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.
This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.
Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.
And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow
As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

Have to occasionally remind myself that this is NOT A TV show. JFC it feels like a rip-off of Law&Order where they try to fit in ALL the things, just to boost ratings.
Judge: Isn’t the appropriate response here to appeal my ruling or seek to modify it in some way versus ignoring a court order?
DOJ: Planes are in the sky & national security is involved so “that’s not a call that can be made.”

Rep. Zooey Zephyr - My Wife - just gave an incredible speech against a drag ban in Montana. It was so strong that a Republican rose to speak passionately against the bill, chastising the sponsor.
The drag ban dies in Montana, flips 10+ Republican votes!
This is the power of representation.

The centrist and corporate wings of the party are obsessed with the idea that "the left" (whether that's like AOC and other progressives or like, rando college sophomores) are constantly embarrassing the party, but it's always the centrist swing-seaters who do shit that hurts the entire caucus
