Can do! 🪜🖐️
Three years and one month from today, I’m going to grab a pickax and pull those letters off that building, but I’m going to need help holding the ladder. Are you in? Applying for my carpenter’s card today, so it’ll be a union job!!!

Agree, PBS has the best
mystery shows!!!!
A pitch for those of you canceling Disney+/Hulu this week would be to use that cash and subscribe to PBS/PBS Passport.

Public media is foundational to our democracy and supporting @pbs.org is just about the best value for your dollar. Plus, there are so many British mysteries!!!

This story needs to be flogged, amplified, lifted.
"Despite Trump officially activating FEMA on Sunday, FEMA has just 86 total staff deployed at this point [to Texas], according to figures shared with staff Monday evening...In the past it would normally be in the several hundreds at this point in the disaster recovery process."

My latest:
FEMA response to deadly Texas floods delayed & deficient with Noem in charge
Staffers sound the alarm.

My great grandparents came over from Poland and Russia, worked in the meat packing plants in the stockyards of South Chicago. Most of us came from immigrants. 👇
Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

I joined Nicolle Wallace to discuss Trump's weaponization of the Justice Department to indict political opponents like Rep. LaMonica McIver, the military’s deployment in Los Angeles and the president’s weekend birthday parade.

I hope you watch, learn and share.

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

Here’s a rare member of the U.S. Senate who seems to understand how close we are to a dictatorship.
Chris Murphy: "We can't be preparing for the 2026 election. It might not come. All of our focus right now has to be on protecting the democracy, about stopping the corruption."
