This is what you get when you take a Gen X and put her through a pandemic, an attempted insurrection, perimenopause, and an oligarchic coup threatening American democracy.

The Voting Rights Act was signed into law 60 years ago today.
At least one of Texas’ congressional maps has violated the VRA in every decade since – including the state’s current map.
Texas Democrats are carrying on LBJ’s legacy by fighting today’s voter suppression.

Here is my best guidance for action, rendered beautifully by the great John Lithgow. I first published these lessons more than eight years ago, in late 2016. They open the twenty chapters of "On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century."

Yes, we must learn from this horror show and make significant changes for the future!
America has never been subject to this level of authoritarianism, and quite frankly, sheer incompetence.
Out of the ashes, this moment should radicalize us to embark on an era of new reform — of our economy, our democracy, and our commitment to social justice and the law.

BREAKING: Trump tells NBC that he is committed to annexing Greenland and that a military option is not off the table.
“We’ll get Greenland. Yeah, 100%,” Trump said.
He added that there’s a “good possibility that we could do it without military force” but that “I don’t take anything off the table.”

The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

🧵 The passage of this dangerous Republican funding bill is a travesty. The ongoing administrative coup led by Donald Trump and Elon Musk is a constitutional crisis. The authoritarians stripping away our rights and trying to loot the government to enrich the billionaires are a five-alarm fire.

Whether you changed your name because you got married or any other reason, the SAVE Act could keep you and millions of others from being able to vote.

Stop the SAVE Act
The SAVE Act would keep millions of people from being able to vote – and would shut countless eligible voters out of our democracy. Urge Congress to vote no now.
