Guys don’t listen to violence agitators. The only way to get trump out is through a *non-violent movement*, like we saw across the country yesterday. Here’s research throughout history on this.

The '3.5% rule': How a small minority can change the world
Nonviolent protests are twice as likely to succeed as armed conflicts – and those engaging a threshold of 3.5% of the population have never failed to bring about change.

An investigation by that noted lefty rag the Wall Street Journal has found that using vehicles to box people in and then shooting them when they try to leave is a deliberate, repeat tactic by ICE.

They claim the delay is necessary to review the files

But here is the thing: The DOJ previously claimed THE REVIEW WAS COMPLETE IN JULY

Self-driving cars are the most transformative transportation tech in a century.

In 2025, I wrote a slew of stories exploring their effects. 🧵

In @vox.com, I explained why the convenience of self-driven rides could bring crippling congestion. Cities should act now to mitigate the risks.
A self-driving car traffic jam is coming for US cities
A century ago, cars remade America. Autonomous vehicles could do it again.

This year, many people resigned their posts at the slightest hint that the Trump regime was displeased with them instead of staying and making someone fire them.

Sharyn Alfonsi is showing us why you stay and refuse: you make clear your superiors are wrong and may them pay the costs of firing you.
Again, from Michael Grynbaum, here is Sharyn Alfonsi's full email.

Everyone who speaks to Trump is required to address him with admiration and bullshit compliments

Reporters get called ugly or piggy for defying him

Billionaires give him ceremonies and fake awards

And criminals get pardons in return for kissing his ass

1. Jared Kushner's trip to Moscow yesterday was not just unethical; it was illegal.

You cannot accept tens of millions of dollars from foreign governments and simultaneously conduct high-level diplomacy for the federal government.

It says it right in the Constitution.
Kushner’s Moscow mission wasn’t just corrupt. It was unconstitutional.
Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law, has been traveling the world to participate in high-stakes foreign policy negotiations on behalf of the president.

I can't stress this enough as a super volunteer for the Democratic Party and Democratic candidates. This should prompt you to get MORE involved, not less. Show up and use the existing infrastructure to make it work for all of us. In my neck of the woods, we've seen a ton of local victories this way.
Right, the answer isn't to abandon the party to these weasels.

The answer is to flood the party with people who will take it over and transform it.
Hey, a lot of people are talking about changing affiliation from Democratic to Independent.

Let me tell you why you shouldn’t do that in Colorado.

One of the main ways to get a primary challenge candidate on a ballot is to caucus for your party. You need to be registered as a Dem to caucus.
