I’ve interviewed a lot of victims stayed in an abusive relationship because they worried their loved ones would judge them for not leaving sooner. They needed support and they knew they would get ridicule instead.
And that’s something I’m thinking about a lot in this political environment.

West Coast numbers are coming in, and estimates have now surpassed 5 million. People are still pouring into the streets—nearly 2% of the American population is rising up. America, we are so proud of you. You did it.

Republicans, who control both chambers of Congress and previously railed against executive overreach by Democratic presidents, have sat on the sidelines as Trump carries out controversial — and sometimes legally questionable — executive actions and orders.
Republicans take a back seat as Trump steamrolls Congress with flurry of unilateral moves
Trump is moving at breakneck speed to disrupt and reshape the federal government, challenging oversight powers reserved for lawmakers.

I will give either a limb, or my undying gratitude,* to the first news site that publishes a story detailing the extent to which the DOGE actions are illegal or improper, exactly which laws are applicable, and what legal action would be feasible to reverse these moves.
(*I get to choose which)
(*I get to choose which)
Big national media outlet still failing.
Headlines suggest some dispute over data access at US AID.
*Not connecting the dots with other DOGE moves.
*Not conveying illegality.
*Not communicating constitutional crisis.

This short clip from @NewsHour is a great example of something you'd never see on Fox News. Trump's plans to slap tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China caused the stock market to take a dive last Friday. Fox News would never tell its viewers this basic truth.

Any news outlet reporting Mexico conceded anything to Trump to get him to delay tariffs has not done its homework.
Trump boasts he got Mexico to commit to stationing 10K troops at our border. Apparently he didn't realize Mexico already has 15K troops deployed there

Just spitballing, but things that could happen today:

*Someone introduce articles of impeachment
*Dem officeholders go to USAID offices with USAID workers

Hey, BlueSky geniuses: Has anyone yet made a starter pack of Canadian thought leaders, public intellectuals, journalists, and progressive activists, scientists, economists et al that we could all follow and open lines of communication with?
I think that would be popular. And is deeply needed.

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out.
This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.
