Masked thugs are attacking and kidnapping people on the streets of American cities. This state terror is designed to make Americans feel helpless. But this has happened before. And The People have stopped it before, as I discuss here.

the press doesn't seem to understand that we genuinely no longer have functional federal regulators or corporate oversight in any serious form across labor, financial, public safety, and consumer protection

it's kind of a big story, but they're so cowed by ownership they genuinely don't care

TAKE ACTION: The Election Assistance Commission is accepting public comments on this request for a “show-your-papers” requirement. Will you speak out against this attack on the freedom to vote?

Something tells me its not the vehicle itself but the message sent by purchasing and loving a truck that enriches someone such as elon musk.

Women don't like what the vehicle says about its owner's morals and ethics.

But sure, keep blaming anything other than oneself for negative consequences.

Shaheen: "That's the kind of rhetoric that was used against people who were marching for civil rights, students' rights, women's rights, people who were marching against the war in Vietnam ... it's one of the things that makes this country great and different from Putin's Russia -- peaceful protest"

In 2024, I wrote a story for Texas Monthly about Michelle Haas, whose complaints resulted in the removal of books about slavery from historic Texas slave plantations. Haas sued us, alleging defamation, and was represented by the preferred lawyer of billionaire J.P. Bryan. Today, we won on appeal.

Raskin: "There's a regime of fear that has come down on the Republican Party. They've looked at what happened to Liz Cheney, to Adam Kinzinger, to Mitt Romney, to others who have taken on the president. They insist on absolute 100% loyalty above everything else."

Walking into a Republican's office in 2025.

I didn’t think this guy could get any better.

Real "Epstein wasn't Trump's friend. They just happened to be in a photo together" energy here

One thing I learned by writing a parenting book: the national pastime of the US isn't baseball, it's criticizing parents... ESPECIALLY moms.

I think that culture creates a fertile environment for this kind of stuff. Young moms are paranoid that they will be judged for not protecting their kids

We need to talk about how social media algorithms push moms down a slippery slope of distrust.

From "Are my kids getting enough support in school?" To "Maybe I should homeschool." To "Maybe modern medicine is bad."

I've seen this first-hand in research I'm doing on parenting apps. 1/🧵

man...

A federal judge extended for two more weeks orders barring President Donald Trump and his administration from deploying National Guard troops to Portland, but an imminent decision from a higher court could upend them.

Trumpers are deeply frustrated that their violence is being met with nonviolence.

Remember the first few months of this year, when all we talked about was DOGE and spending cuts and waste, and this administration gutted USAID?

And now they’re giving $40 billion (!) to Argentina.

Insane the amount of amnesia in this country and in our politics and media.

It’s day 15 of the Epstein shutdown

Bayard Rustin was one of the most influential organizers of the civil rights movement, leading key protests like the 1963 March on Washington for racial justice.

Bayard dedicated his life to fighting for equal rights for the Black community, LGBTQ people, and economic justice.
