Rep. Angie Craig: "The attacks on Black and brown people in Minnesota have been egregious. At the end of the day, what they wanted out of Minnesota was for us to riot. I think this will go down in American history as one of the greatest examples of peaceful resistance from an entire community."

Reflections on a Halftime and after

The positive joy and hope
The negative anger and hate

The youthful creativity
The elderly dark vision
February 10, 2026 at 9:53 PM
The healthiness of movement and sharing
The illness of sloth and greed

Continually conveying positivity
Always a dark serpent’s strike

Party includes everybody
Party with pedophiles and victims

Singing the truth
Shouting the lies

What an assembled team of scientists and communicators. Clearly great work.
Shared decision-making, informed consent, and the rhetoric of false empowerment

Let me try to articulate what I think the central economic issue of the current moment really is.
Wolfers: This is the most interventionist government of my lifetime. It’s the least conservative government of my lifetime. When you are the richest country in the world, maybe you are not the ones who should be tearing down your existing institutions. But that’s exactly what this president is doing

Wait, it’s not a wheal.
But the hand owner is likely asleep.

Absolutely. Our slide can be traced back to Citizens United, not fictitious criminal gangs running wild.
On the anniversary of Citizens United, I have one thing to say: get big money out of politics!

Elections belong to the people, not billionaire donors, corporations, and dark money. The people.

This MUST be a top priority when we take back the House. It’s time to overturn Citizens United!

The first thing Virginia Spanberger did after being sworn in as Governor of Virginia was repeal Youngkin’s executive order requiring state and local law enforcement to cooperate with ICE.

This is the kind of leadership Democratic governors nationwide should be emulating.

Say it ain’t so Sec Lori Chavez DeRemer.

Doesn’t this administration at times resemble a pack of rabbits?
Not even in the top 100 worst ethical lapses in Trump's presidency, but the Secretary of Labor apparently had her staffers create fraudulent records of fake work trips so she could take time off (and have an affair with a subordinate)

At the start of 2025, we knew this movement would play a pivotal role in the fight against authoritarianism.

Still, we’re blown away by the level of commitment and dedication you have shown throughout a difficult year.

Thank you for reminding the regime that power still belongs with the people.

A smarter model for paying for college: income-based repayment. You start paying your student loans only once you earn enough to comfortably get by. That turns higher ed debt into something more like a tax surcharge on success, not a choke collar on people who are struggling.

Context you rarely hear: global stocks are up about 30% over the past year. U.S. stocks? Around 18%. That means American investors underperformed the world by about 12 percentage points, even while headlines called it a “fantastic year.”

Dozens of energy projects cancelled in California. 
 
Now five more on the East Coast. 
 
All because Donald Trump wants to kill cheap, renewable energy. 
 
Want to know who will pay the price for Trump's job killing cancellations?

Check your utility bill next year and you will see.
