If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.
Do not be quiet in this moment.

It’s worse than we feared. Beware.
The ICE Man Cometh
Trump’s Gestapo is here. It operates throughout the country. It can suddenly arrest anyone, with no crime alleged, and deport them for permanent imprisonment overseas. Will anyone stop this?

Look, I understand the urge to say "I'm autistic and I date and I pay taxes," but that's unintentionally just buying into his argument. We are not the autistic people he is talking about.
Some autistic people CANNOT IN FACT do these things. They also deserve care, protection, and basic dignity.

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism.
If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone.
Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

My favorite quote about the media: “That's just PR.”
The most fundamental responsibility of a journalist is NOT to blindly repeat false information just because it came out of the mouth of a powerful person.
That's just PR.

The richest man in the world spent more money than most of us will see in our lifetimes to lose a state Supreme Court race by 10 points.
And the fact his $25 million was a drop in the bucket compared to what he's spent on other elections is exactly why we must overturn Citizens United.

My politics have evolved to be radically antifascist. It’s literally the foundation for my political beliefs. I don’t believe in the devil, I’m not spiritual, but fascism is deeply evil, and if there is any higher calling for humanity, it is defeating fascism wherever it rises.
