The reality is that 2024 was a fundamental test of the moral character of the nation and we failed spectacularly. We’re living with the consequences now. Maybe we improve. I hope so.

16 years ago today, the Supreme Court made its absurd Citizens United decision, opening the floodgates for big money to overwhelm our democracy.

This video is from 2020, but it still rings true today: we have to get Big Money out of politics.

I second this & million more Democrats join me! Do you hear us, @kenmartin.bsky.social?
It’s astonishing to me that Ken Martin isn’t aware of the backlash to fundraising emails perpetually being in first responses to a Republican created crisis.
Nothing encapsulates Dems powerlessness or inability to operate beyond conventional tactics when they send out fundraising emails like AI powered bots in response to crisis. This predictable soulless email from DNC is a perfect ie of preoccupation w/ tactics w/o any coherent strategy.

And who stands to gain from pushing AI?

The owner of Time, billionaire Marc Benioff.

When billionaires take control of media, it’s not a win for free speech. It’s a win for oligarchy.

Wow! Just heard an interview with Eliott Abrams on @wbur.org's program "Here & Now" without any mention of his disreputable time in the Reagan administration. Convicted of lying to Congress! Does this NPR-affiliated program not know or was a decision made to treat him as a "respected expert"?

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 95th day out of the last 107.

12 days of work in 107 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Nancy Pelosi’s career has been a masterclass on leadership. The first woman to ever hold the Speaker’s gavel—and she did it better than most who came before her. From passing the Affordable Care Act to standing up to Trump, she never flinched.

Madam Speaker, we salute you.

Stephen Miller, Marco Rubio and Kristi Noem represent “a growing list” of senior Trump-administration political appointees now living on military bases — “where they are shielded not just from potential violence but also from protest”

Wonder why

I wish all of the sane media would stop giving MAGA a pass by not pointing to Greg Abbott's help with Johnson's Congress packing. The 18th Congressional District in Texas has not had a Representative since early March. The death of Sylvester Turner should have triggered an ASAP special election. . .

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

The war in Gaza ended 6 to 9 months ago. It’s been pure genocide—a straight-up slaughter-and-starvation campaign—since then. Under no circumstances should anyone pretend that Netanyahu is still fighting a “war” just so that Trump can get a photo op and say he “ended” it.

Do better, corporate media.
Trump’s Gaza peace plan does not resolve all the issues, @yair-rosenberg.bsky.social argues. "But Trump is counting on the force of his personality, the exhaustion of the parties, and the momentum created by the initial agreement to ultimately end the war entirely."
The Gaza War Isn’t Over Yet. But It Could Be Soon.
Trump may have ended the Gaza hostage crisis. Can he end the Gaza war?

I was sent this by a Georgian this morning. 2025 premiums vs 2026 premiums for someone making $65k a year.

Republicans in Washington did this.

This is what I'm fighting to stop. This is what’s at stake in this shutdown fight.

I haven't seen anyone talking about how this guy appears to have been a pedophile. Amy Ayers was 13 when he raped her before killing her. He also raped a 14-year-old in Tennessee. As they investigate further, I bet they will find more underage girls he raped & killed.

Two days after four teenage girls were found murdered in a burning Austin yogurt shop in 1991, a man with a pistol in a stolen car was arrested at a border checkpoint west of El Paso.

Nearly 34 years later, cold case detectives have now connected that man and the weapon to the horrific killings.
