Calling the press “fake news” is harmful. Calling them “seditious, perhaps even treasonous” for publishing reporting is something else entirely. Treason is a capital crime. Suggesting journalists should face it for exercising their First Amendment rights and doing their jobs is dangerous.

This is gearing up to be a horrendous influenza season.

I had 2 pregnant patients test positive last week (swabbed because they presented to hospital with significant illness)

Neither were vaccinated.

The so-called “war” with Venezuela was supposedly about stopping drugs… yet they’re out there seizing an oil tanker.

Instacart got caught running real-time price experiments on shoppers — same groceries, different prices.

Workers know this game well: Instacart’s algorithm does the same thing to their pay.

Chicago is where Michelle was raised, where I got my start as an organizer, and where we built a family together. When the Obama Presidential Center opens next June, it will be our way to give back to a city that has given us so much. obama.org/presidential-center

Elections have consequences. A man like this never belonged near the levers of power. Not the first time. And certainly not this second time when everything was knowable. We are trapped in a tragedy and must fight our way out.

THE AMERICAN WORKER IS ALL OF US. Black, white, Latino, Asian, Native, immigrant, union or not. Not the “working class” stereotype.

We built this country. We keep it running. Stop dividing. Start recognizing.

I guess the president just announced he recently took his latest in a series of cognitive tests, this one in front of a room full of medical personnel observing him?

Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.

The Trump regime is trying to normalize misogyny. Unfortunately, it’s too many people in this country that don’t have the balls to stand up against him. This pattern of abuse is only going to get worse folks! What is it going to take⁉️

I had fun reading to some Burke Elementary students at the Chicago Public Library today. When the Obama Presidential Center opens next year, we’ll have a new branch of the library for the community to enjoy.

New, from me: by embracing unitary executive theory, the Supreme Court is moving towards making all public employees fireable at the will of the President.

This will not just hurt government competence, it will aid democratic backsliding. 🧵
