Like you I am celebrating Tuesday's victories. However, my job is not to sugarcoat things and tell you it's all fixed. It is to warning about what to expect next and fight back.

This picture may haunt me to the end of my days.
It is an ICE agent taking an axe to the car window of an immigrant in New Bedford, MA. Not far from where I sit now. An immigrant with no criminal record was abducted by this smiling man.
An axe taken to a car window and to our democracy. 1/

Anyone else remember that old SNL sketch in which Jon Lovitz is playing Michael Dukakis and Dana Carvey is playing George H.W. Bush and they're debating and in mid-debate Dukakis turns to the camera and says, "I can't believe I'm losing to this guy"?
Yeah, *that*
Yeah, *that*

Semi-regular reminder that a sane country would have already impeached and removed. But then again a sane country wouldn’t have elected a maniac criminal twice in the first place.

Jimmy Kimmel isn't returning to the airwaves because of "thoughtful conversations" with Disney executives.
He's back because consumers sent Disney a clear message: selling out our fundamental rights is not an acceptable cost of doing business.

Noem on South Park: It’s so lazy to just constantly make fun of women for how they look. It’s only the liberals and the extremists who do that.
If they wanted to criticize my job, go ahead and do that, but clearly they can’t.

Ken Paxton is the most corrupt Attorney General in Texas history.
This malignant clown was impeached by his own party.
He has ZERO credibility on issues of law and order. Pipe down.

🚨 Ken Paxton wants Dems arrested for refusing to help rig an election.
That’s rich coming from a guy indicted on three felony counts of securities fraud, accused by his top deputies of bribery, abuse of office, while allegedly using burner phones, secret emails & fake names to dodge accountability.

Crockett: My former colleagues from the Texas House—decided to get the hell out of Texas… breaking quorum is where they’re at right now. And they didn’t just do it by themselves—they went to Illinois, where there is a governor that gives a damn. This fight is going to take all of us.
