The Washington Post now has no Black Opinion columnists - none - at a time when white nationalism is ascendant in our nation. I am grateful to Karen for the truth and fearlessness her work has always shown. Keep shining that light, my friend.
Some personal news:
I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting.
Thread incoming.

This morning, Trump issued a threatening post against a federal judge who's trying to constrain him.
It's part of an increasing attempt to threaten judges with violence.
Trump is descending even further into dictatorship.

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right.
The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter.
Everyone must choose which side they’re on.

Elon Musk is not only determined to infiltrate every level of the federal government, he’s coming after our local elections, too. We’re not going to let him get away with it. Pitch in if you can to help us stop Musk from buying the Wisconsin Supreme Court election: secure.actblue.com/donate/scowi...

been thinking a lot about this quote lately
“There must have been a moment, at the beginning, where we could have said -- no. But somehow we missed it.”

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.
Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.
Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Susan Collins chairs the Senate Appropriations Committee and has the power to push back against the Trump-Musk misuse of federal funds.
If you live in Maine and are ... concerned? troubled? worried? ... let her know and let her know often.

The first is Susan Collins from Maine. Yes, she is a coward, but she needs to be visited in DC and in her Maine offices, and we need to call her every day until this stops. 2/ www.collins.senate.gov

This.
Any four Republican Senators could stop this at any time simply by threatening to block all action (or even caucus with the Democrats) if Trump doesn't make certain concessions. They won't, but that should be a much bigger story than whether the Democrats are doing everything that *they* can.
