“No, Speaker Johnson — the No Kings rally on October 18 is not a hate America rally. In fact, it’s quite the contrary: It’s a love America rally.” #NoKings

People ask what they can do in this moment: here's a crucially important election. There are 52,000 elections taking place next month, many of which will be determined by turnout.

Dispatch from Pennsylvania on a highly unusual state Supreme Court election—one of the few most consequential matters on the ballot anywhere in the country next month. New from me in @boltsmag.org: boltsmag.org/pennsylvania...

Is there a frog fund we can donate to? I'll gladly chip in for more frog suits on the streets in "war-torn" Portland.

This is why the protests are happening! No one should be disappeared! ICE is a terrorist group!

"They disappeared her." This story from @timdickinson.bsky.social is so upsetting. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Her Kids Are U.S. Citizens. Trump's Admin Disappeared Them Anyway

Donald Trump's Customs and Border Protection (CBP) disappeared an immigrant mom living in Portland and her four U.S. citizen children.

My guess is this will fail and that plane will have to be returned.

So Trump gave Argentina a $20 billion bailout and is now building a Qatari military facility in Idaho.

While Americans can’t afford groceries.

Ode to the Portland frog

From the mist of the moss
And the gray Oregon rain,
Their leaps, a green hero to ease all the pain.
My love for this frog is a powerful thing,
For the justice and freedom
his ribbit can bring
