Last night the Government steamrollered its Planning Bill through, slamming the door on vital protections for nature.
They said it would be a ‘win-win’ for the economy and nature.
But in reality, they’ve pushed nature into last place.

Trump, Hegseth, and Republicans think their meltdown shows strength, but it’s the opposite. They’re showcasing decorated Democratic veterans like Mark Kelly who make them look small and petty. They should pay more attention to lowering grocery prices than ridiculous threats of court-martialing.

Trump has no right to pose any demands on Ukraine:
1. He instantly stopped ALL financial and arms aid to Ukraine. US republicans continue to lie that the US is financing Ukraine & giving it arms. Stop lying!
2. Trump has repeatedly lied that the US has given $350 bn to Ukraine.

Tom Friedman’s piece in the NYT today again brings up the specter of Neville Chamberlain in ‘39. I disagree.
A better analogy is saying to Hitler: “keep the Sudetenland, don’t worry about the Holocaust, & we’ll give you a few years to rearm to attack into Belgium again. Let’s sign that!”

Every Democrat in Congress should put out a video saying troops have an obligation to refuse unlawful orders. Make them prosecute all of you. This isn't a close call.
I'd add Republicans too if I thought any of them had the courage to actually cross Trump on this.

This might work “Individual states — either through their legislators or their citizens wielding ballot initiatives — have the authority to limit corporate political activity and dark money spending, because they determine what powers corporations have.”
We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way to get rid of Citizens United. Let me explain. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-get-rid-of-citizens-united

Unprecedentedly good fiscal & monetary policy. Again, I hope everyone likes Lost Decades, because the lesson the Democrats have now learned, for at least a generation, is that you should never again try & avoid them, because you will be destroyed in the media & the court of public opinion.

The South African anti-apartheid jurist Albie Sachs recently said that "the sacrifice is not in the doing" but "in missing the chance to be doing." @esglaude.bsky.social says insight from people like Sachs can "fortify the spirit" in the fight for democracy. #Velshi
We have to face the reality of our own time' & answer the call to fight for democracy
Recently, Ali Velshi met with Albie Sachs, a 90-year-old former judge and veteran of the struggle against apartheid in South Africa. Sachs shared that, in hard times, "the sacrifice is in missing the chance to be doing." That means that history calls on all of us to stand up for justice. Princeton Professor Eddie Glaude adds that, as we learn from history, "we have to admit that racism still occupies the throne in this country" and we must "get at that moral rot."

The “lame duck” myth: Trump won’t depart until he ‘burns it all down’
Donald Trump is often cast as a “lame duck” president, but Lincoln Project co-founder Rick Wilson argues that Trump’s second term has given him an even “greater sense of autonomy,” unrestrained by tradition or law. Wilson warns that Trump’s need to remain the center of attention means he’ll grow even more chaotic and dangerous if he feels sidelined.

Ghislaine Maxwell: as she is doing time already, Congress shd immunize her which would force her to have to testify (she is currently objecting based on the 5th A). She can be prosecuted if she lies or refuses to testify. And it would make it that much more outlandish for Trump to later pardon her.
