Hey Megyn Kelly,

14-year-old Eloise would like a word:

“If my voice makes you uncomfortable, good…
because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.”

Sound up! 🔥🔊

Arlington National Cemetery just erased DEI from its website—because Republicans threw a tantrum over honoring ALL who served.

The same GOP that cuts Veteran healthcare now decides who’s worthy of remembrance.

This isn’t patriotism. It’s whitewashing history.

This is a terrible affront to the veterans posthumously dishonored and canceled and to their families. It is a pathological statement that the MAGA government cannot even accept inclusion in death. taskandpurpose.com/news/arlingt...

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

What is wrong with giving a new leader a chance? A new approach, a fresh approach. Someone who has integrity, leadership skills, represents a key state, has guts and the confidence of the base. Time to put ego aside and screw seniority. This is my nominee.

This. Shout this from the rooftops. Add in the propaganda that tricks voters into thinking this is the American way and you’ve got the MAGA playbook.
🧵I know what the Trump administration is doing to the country because they’ve already done it to rural America.

They stripped public schools of funding. They closed our hospitals. They sold family farms for parts. They let our infrastructure rot. And then they gerrymandered us to keep us quiet.

As predicted, women in New Hampshire had a hard time voting yesterday because of the new proof of citizenship law:

“It doesn’t have my married name on it,” she said. Town voting officials then sent her away a second time, to get her marriage certificate.

NH’s new ID requirements send some would-be voters home to grab passports, birth certificates
The law requires all new voters to show proof of their U.S. citizenship. For some, that meant making multiple trips to and from the polls before finally casting a ballot on Tuesday.

UPDATE—Mahmoud's attorney says they do NOT know where he is.
They were first told he was sent to an ICE facility in Elizabeth, NJ. But when his 8-month-pregnant wife tried to visit him, she was told he's not there.
They've received reports he may be sent as far away as Louisiana.

I don’t know who our nominee is going to be in 2028 but I can tell you I won’t support any Democrat that refuses to promise investigations and prosecutions for the many crimes of this Administration. We’re not going to play this stupid game again of upholding “norms and traditions.” Period.

All voters look for showmanship, guts, and a sense that this candidate is fighting for YOU. I’m not sure why some Dem politicians think “we find acceptable middle ground with feudalists” is a better pitch
We are 18 months out from an election. Now is the time to (1) shore up the base, who *is* paying attention & is fucking furious, and (2) build the narrative playing field we want to be working on in September 2026. Stop playing scared.

Listen this IS in fact how it’s done.

Treanor is a brilliant lawyer & constitutional scholar. Embarrassing for Martin.
