One thing we've learned from the American judicial system: The first 34 felonies are on the house*.

*Terms and conditions may apply. See prosecutors for details if you're not white. Or rich.

When referring to people who are anti-Trump, don't fall into the trap of calling them "Antifa."

That is a loaded, mangled word. Call them what they are, "anti-fascists."

Reporting live from Chicago, there’s no “hellscape” I’d rather be in.

I am a proud woman of faith, and I know that faith and fear cannot share the same space. And so today I am not fearful, I am fearless, and as my faith teaches me, no weapon formed against me shall prosper. We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights. And I will continue to do my job

Capitalism, business, corporations whatever you want to call it, can do nothing in the face of fascism. It only bows and does what it is told. No one but the people will get us through this.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

The America we used to live in—the America we want to think we live in—is gone.

We’ll have to build again.
We want to think that the repeated, widespread abuse of basic rights by DHS; the DOJ actions against former officials like James Comey and John Bolton; the presence of 2020 election deniers across congressional and executive branch leaders; the unconstitutional dismantling of federal agencies; the consolidation of old and new media under leadership favorable to Trump; the use of lawsuits and executive branch power to intimidate and silence critics; and the clear attempts to subvert the 2026 and 2028 elections; and Trump's constant insinuation that he might seek a third term do not all in fact mean
that we have crossed the threshold into a competitive authoritarian environment.
But we have. We have passed through the veil. Whatever becomes of American liberal democracy in the near or distant future, it will be a resurrection and not a continuation.

Republicans are showing us every day that they are exactly what we said they were. And doing exactly what we said they would do if in power. And now a lot of people are afraid for their lives, health, family, freedom, neighbors, community, schools, work.

There will be those who will once again council empty reconciliation with Republicans, on the grounds that “we need to be better than them.”

But here’s the thing: we ARE better than them. Much better than them. Everyone is far far far better than them. That’s why they all need to go to prison.

Everybody who pushed Democrats to be more aggressive after the insurrection was right. Listen to them next time (if there is a next time).

“The original version of this story mistakenly stated Newsom has chosen not to sign trans protections. It has been updated to say he has until the end of the week to act.”

Please, everyone put pressure on Newsom to sign protections for trans and gender education!

Johnson: "He has defunded our education system. He has defunded our transportation system. He's firing black women across this country. He's defunding our healthcare system. This president is absolutely out of control... Chicago is going to stand firm in protecting humanity."

"Chicago isn't licking boots!

No hate no fear. Immigrants are welcome here. All power to the people.

No human is illegal.
No raids. No deportation. Down with the occupation!"

A talented protester played the theme to the “Schindler's List” with his violin at Portland’s ICE detention center last night.

I hope the world gets the message.

Trump obviously will not be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize tomorrow.

He will attempt to discredit the Nobel Committee as 'rigged' and eventually announce that he's creating his own version of the awards, with panel members appointed by his administration. He will be the inaugural 'winner' in 2026.
