Four R senators and four R House members could announce they're caucusing with the Dems for now, and will vote for Schumer for Majority Leader and Jeffries for Speaker, because the threat to the rule of law is dire. Meanwhile, they'll work with Democrats to construct guardrails against dictatorship.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.
No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

The right thing to do becomes glaringly obvious when you stop asking, "But what will he do next?" and switch to thinking:
"What can I do right now that will make his harms less damaging? What do people need to keep safe?"

I am begging blue state governors to have lunch this week with your adjutant general of the National Guard.
Cannot stress enough how important this relationship is going to be in the near future.

We just walked out of the state of the Union. My shirt showed Trump an important message: NO KINGS LIVE HERE.
In the spirit of student protestors from the Civil Rights Movement, I’m proud to have protested and walked out with many of my colleagues. This is NOT a normal time.

Despair is knocking heavy on my door, and Hope, long a guest in my home, is hiding quiet in the closet. But I'm not giving her up. Even if she's not cozy on my couch brightening my day, I invited her, and will protect her at all costs. I owe her that much. I owe myself even more.

Trump thinks he humiliated Zelensky. He humiliated the United States of America. And he made the world a much more dangerous place. Mob boss foreign policy will not work. The Trump-Putin axis fully came out of the closet today.

Elon Musk, apartheid, and America's new boycott movement
If you think mass protests can’t combat evil, remember what we did in the 1980s.

Not a bad idea -- if House Republicans refuse to hold town halls in their congressional districts, local Democrats should set one of their own up.
Every Democrat who lost in a district in 2024 should hold a town hall if those Republicans won't.

It took the Nazis one month, three weeks, two days, eight hours, and 40 minutes to dismantle a constitutional republic.

I’m in Munich and people keep asking me to decode Vance’s speech. OK: In Vance English “free speech” means “Let Musk run your elections” and “democracy” means “let Russia run your elections.” Now move on. 2025 is about what Europeans do, not what Americans say.
