I’ll put more thought behind this later. For now, I live a little west of Austin. My husband works for Willie so every now and then I have a bus story. I follow back.

TED Talks are challenging for professors! (We like 70 minutes, not 10.) But I'll give it my best in DC on November 1 when I speak about my new book AUTOCRATS VS DEMOCRATS. Come if you can!

If Republicans are going to label you a terrorist for peacefully protesting Trump's failing presidency, abuses of power, and treatment of blue America as an enemy nation, let's turn out in even bigger numbers.

On the pod, @jilldlawrence.bsky.social and me on this:

MAGA Rage at “No Kings” Boils Over—and It Quickly Backfires on Trump
As Trump allies smear the coming protests, a good writer on MAGA skewers the absurdity of these attacks on large swaths of Americans—and explains why our best recourse will be to turn out in force.

The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) today floated the idea that workers furloughed during a government shutdown are not guaranteed back pay when the shutdown is resolved.

As if irony isn’t already dead, the Hatch Act violation on the DOJ website, which blames Democrats for the shutdown, appears on the page advising DOJ employees they are subject to the Hatch Act. joycevance.substack.com/p/a-note-abo...

Why fly your entire military command in from around the world to listen to a vapid speech that is broadcast live to the public? It's all very social media. The generals' presence and attention is the product and the message.

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it?

If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say?

Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

Appalling, appalling video. I genuinely think the NYPD should investigate for assault. There was no call at all for level of violence. She perhaps brushed him with her hands but she was not posing a threat at all.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

Donald Trump wants to lend $20 billion of our money to bail out a political ally and his global investors before an election.

Oh, and Argentina just struck a major deal with China that crushes American soybean farmers already suffering from Trump's tariffs.
