I'm just an average American man (and a veteran, married to a man) that struggles to understand why we have lost our way in the fight for democracy. Greed, complacency and ignorance are just a few of the reasons. Dialog is enriching!

The people in this administration would not have fared well in the French Revolution and they know it.

This Thanksgiving, I’m grateful for so much - above all, for loved ones who are with us in our best and worst moments, and who remind us who we really are.
From our family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving!

Disgusted to hear of the targeted shooting of National Guard members in DC today. All Americans should unite in condemning and rejecting this violence. Sending prayers to these victims and their families, and thankful to the responders who acted so quickly.

Mr. Secretary, you seem confused. Mark Kelly was defending the Constitution. That’s leadership and you should try it.
This is an insurrection…

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

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to buy, own, and sell individual stocks. Period. Let's make Congressional stock trading illegal.

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

Democrats were overwhelmingly united on their shutdown demands.
Americans understood that Trump and Republicans were to blame.
Voters made it known last Tuesday that they'll elect leaders who stand up to Trump.
Democrats held the cards — and folded for no reason.

It’s the same old same old. Republicans do a tantrum and break the dishes. The Democrats clean it up. It’s an abusive relationship.

We have a POTUS that is going to court to fight for his right to starve children. Let that sink in.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune rejected a Democratic offer to reopen the government and extend expiring health care subsidies for a year. Thune said he thinks the offer is an indication that Democrats are “feeling the heat.”
He must have been out of the country on Tuesday.

This is officially one of the strangest pictures in American history, and I do not doubt that it will be considered iconic a hundred years from now.

WOW! @governor.ca.gov has unleashed an incredibly impactful ad that everyone needs to watch! Pay attention, folks. This is the time to push back, to fight back. It starts today, it continues with the midterms in ‘26, and in ‘28 we end Trumpism for good.

Excessive force. PERIOD!
They called them “violent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor.
📌 Keep sharing videos, everyone, because they’re evidence.
