Hi. Quick intro. That's me, Eddie, on the floor. That's my youngest kiddo Kenji in the chair. He's a rascally teenager with disabilities caused by genetic mutations. His diagnosis is called #syngap1 and comes with epilepsy, autism, adhd, developmental delays and behavioral issues. He is my why.

NEW: The CBO says Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill will add $4.1 trillion to the deficit, $700 billion more than previously estimated

For all those rightwingers crying about how “DeMoCrAtS GerRyMaNdEr ToO,” just ask them if they support a nationwide ban on gerrymandering. We do. They don’t. They’re not mad at the concept of gerrymandering, they’re mad that they don’t get to be the only party wielding it anymore.

PULLED FROM THE VAULT: Reagan once sold the lie that “anyone can become an American.”
Now here we are:
Trump’s openly laying the groundwork for dictatorship, lying on live TV, and unleashing political purges.
Reagan must be proud. His hypocrisy finally came home to roost.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado.
11,000 people showed up.
Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

Today at a Foreign Affairs Committee briefing on USAID I asked Trump's head of USAID Pete Marocco, as the overseer of democracy and free elections programming globally, whether he was at the Capitol on January 6th.
He refused to say no.

I remember when my kid was playing club soccer and at a certain age, I realized that the parents had to stop yelling about other teams playing aggressively and maybe our kids needed to get scrappier and take some fouls. The refs aren't pulling any cards so it's time to start fouling back. #democats

Solo sesh yesterday. Finally after sick day cancellations and life in general. Weather was awesome and I was cruising! I'm feeling it today after taking an unexpected slam on a flat spot! It's always the damn packed flats...

It all keeps driving in a scary direction away from democracy and freedom.
NEW: WIRED got IP blocked by the Social Security Administration, among other outlets covering Musk's takeover.
Federal workers are now "prohibited" from accessing our reporting on "government-furnished equipment."
WaPo, NYT, and MSNBC are likewise banned, sources confirm.

I LOVE to see the people out there advocating for their rights, speaking loudly and holding their public servants accountable. And it's pretty clear that a lot of folks do NOT like Elon or DOGE.
