This is wonderful news! Like many of us, I've been teetering on the edge of a hard cry for a while now. The tears just came--and what an unexpected blessing that the tears are tears of joy and not despair.

Let's tell President Zelensky him how broken-hearted and ashamed we are for Trump's inexcusable treatment of him and how very, very much we respect the work he's doing fighting for Ukrainian democracy. And let's donate if we can.

BREAKING: Mexican President Sheinbaum argues that if cartels are deemed terrorist orgs, then the suppliers of weapons—over 74% of which come FROM the U.S.—should ALSO face accountability for enabling terrorism.
As a result, Mexico is expanding its lawsuit targeting U.S gun manufacturers. 🇲🇽

I’ll keep pushing this line of analysis because I’m increasingly convinced the clearest path out of this mess is for Dems to adopt a relentless anti-corruption, anti-inequality, anti-oligarchy, pro-democracy platform. The Dem leadership hasn’t realized it yet, but they’re now a reform party.
How many federal workers would DOGE need to fire to make up for Musk not paying his fair share of taxes?
Answer: 677,000. That's 44% of the entire non-DoD federal workforce.
Again, this power grab is not about the budget. It’s about politics.

Take the time to read this piece by Timothy Snyder. There are all kinds of lines that we approach and that we cross. Snyder looks at "the line" in the Russian attack on Ukraine. He also looks at the line in autocrats' and our own attacks upon ourselves.
