This is a really fun story. Obviously, still, fuck this guy, but it's a great demonstration that the Democratic base in MA rejected his shit so thoroughly he's desperate to run away from the reputation caused by his own comments.

Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act.

It’s easy to take democracy for granted. It’s easy to assume that the Constitution is in stone. It’s not.
This is a moment when your courage and your activism are most needed.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.
Four giants control 80% of meat processing.
A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.
The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.
It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

In 1983, 50 companies controlled 90% of the U.S. media market. That number is now down to 5.

it would be great if we had a democratic party willing to go out and say “this is an insane lie to get you to irrationally hate a minority group trying to just exist peacefully” rather than start throwing us under the bus and twiddling their thumbs
Tommy Tuberville: "We're getting to a point where women and girls sports are getting ready to be extinct. Because already in states across this country, we have high school teams that are made up of totally boys participating against girls."

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.
Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.
Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

i personally believe this is true of anti-trans policy and the only reason why hospitals, schools and other institutions capitulated so early is because so few of you — yes, i’m talking to you — have spoken up with your thoughts on these matters.
speak up. it helps.

Found out that TWENTY emails is considered a lot to politicians on an issue.
TWENTY.
As in, they call that getting slammed.
So next time you see a request to email your rep, or call, keep that in mind.

Understand, the mass rollback on DEI is a test. We are being tested to see just how much we’ll allow corporations and our government lean into discrimination.
They won’t stop at DEI initiatives.
