If you watch one thing today, let it be this. Be aware of the psychology of fear and manipulation.

Reminder that you can criticize and jest at the president for what is coming out in the Epstein files & emails without using and re-traumatizing Monica Lewinsky. She is a human being who has been through enough. Wordplay with her name, memes with her resemblance, etc. ARE NOT OK. #DOBETTER

Texas Democrats left the state Sunday in an attempt to prevent the state House from holding a vote Monday on new congressional maps that Republicans hope will net them several additional U.S. House seats in the 2026 midterm elections.
Texas Democrats leave the state in effort block vote on redrawn House map backed by Trump
The dramatic move could expose Democrats to fines and other penalties — with the state's attorney general having previously threatened to arrest them if they took such an action.

Chuck Schumer makes it to the New Yorker cartoon section. And not in a good way. Chuck, this is your legacy unless you seriously step up.

Thurmond's filibuster was performative. He read from the Encyclopedia. Cruz's filibuster was performative. He read from Dr. Seuss.

Cory Booker spoke issues and history and people's needs for over 24 hours. Nothing performative. He may have just started to pull us out of this mire.

I have warned about the rightwing attack on empathy. It is as dangerous as any attack on democracy. It will accelerate in Musks’ hands. open.substack.com/pub/sherrily...

Anyone up for a little passive resistance today?

Let's help our friends at The Heritage Foundation get some ver good data in their very unserious DOGE survey:

While we're all in "Fuck Bezos" mode, two things you've probably heard before:

1) Shop local instead of through Amazon

2) For books, set your local bookshop at Bookshop dot org, and buy through there to get them a nice chunk of change:

bookshop.org/pages/bookst...
Bookshop.org: Store Locator
Discover local and indie bookstores in the United States. Choose your favorite bookstore to support with your order. They'll receive the full profit from your purchase.

I wrote a message to John Cornyn (unfortunately one of my Senators) asking him to work for Texans, uphold the Constitution and integrity of the Senate, and enforce accountability for DOGE. His response is what you'd expect (with very AI-esque language.)

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

As a survivor of abuse, this is what it’s like to be in an abusive relationship. The US went back to its abuser and it’s now 100x’s worse. The hits will be harder, the gaslighting will be more extreme and someone could die.. and it might be democracy at the hands of an abuser

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

A memo leaked to the Associated Press reveals that the White House has told the U.S. CDC to stop working with the WHO immediately.

This breaks protocol which requires the approval of Congress and a one-year notice to leave the WHO.
