I keep trying to tell folks there are Republicans pretending to be Democrats in the Democratic Party.

Full transparency: I phoned banked to help get Laura Gillien elected to Congress. So it is disappointing, but not surprising to learn that she supported Rep. Al Green to be censored.

Where a person lives has nothing to do with paying to drive on roads they ALREADY pay for in taxes!. And keep that same energy for the billionaires that pay ZERO taxes, while city workers pay the highest taxes in addition to congestion pricing.

And more NEW YORKERS pockets are empty because they are paying to travel on roads that their taxes already pay for. Meanwhile, the rich get richer off tax breaks!!!

Most of us have had a moment when we said to ourselves, “What would I do during the Civil Rights Movement?” Well here we are, in the old, but new Civil Rights moment. So what are you going to do?

Trump is shutting down at midnight tonight the federal website for ordering free COVID tests (four per order).

I just ordered four—can’t be easier.

Last call.

"In other countries, this would be called 'an authoritarian coup.' In America, mealy-mouthed officials call our transition into a mafia state 'deeply troubling' and do little to curb the damage."

New and devastating reporting from my colleagues showing just how dangerous it has become to be pregnant and in Texas after the state banned abortion.

Please read and share:

Texas Banned Abortion. Then Sepsis Rates Soared.

ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis is the most detailed look yet into a rise in life-threatening complications for women experiencing pregnancy loss under Texas’ abortion ban.
