I want to see a whole new class of Democrats willing to ram the most progressive agenda through the next time they’re even technically in a place to do it.
I want elected progressives who obstruct this administration period. No compromises. No bailing out Republicans. Just sand in the gears.

Being a historian, people ask me if I think the US is living through Germany 1933.
I answer no, analogies are always imperfect but to me it feels more like Russia 1999: a blatant theft of state assets and liberals in a fugue state, refusing to believe the arc of progress is bending against them.

To every American tuning in to Trump’s address tonight, do two things before you watch:
Check your 401k.
Check your last grocery bill, and add 25%.
No matter what the President says tonight, that’s the reality of what he’s doing to your family finances.

I’m headed to a corn and soybean farm in Cannon Falls to hear about the impact of Trump’s tariffs on Minnesota farmers.
Farming is a tough job, and it certainly isn’t made any easier by two out-of-touch billionaires cutting off economic opportunities.

The Republican Congress has surrendered. They are no longer a functioning co-equal branch of government. Democrats need to do everything to not cooperate. Use your position to slow their fascist takeover. The time of “bipartisanship” and “finding common ground” is over. Now it’s time to fight.
February 4, 2025 at 9:39 PM
Democrats need to stop bringing strongly worded letters to a fascist gunfight. Block the doors, roll the cameras, and force these GOP bootlickers to answer for their destruction in real time.

California is providing more food benefits for people in Los Angeles impacted by the recent firestorms.
Starting February 10th, I encourage eligible people to apply for CalFresh benefits, which will allow more people to access and put more food on the table.
