It fucking kills me that none of these kids is going to get the mandatory mourning, the required moments of silence, the Ezra Klein eulogies, the massive federal government policy response, of the guy who said mass shootings are just the price you pay for freedom.

More of this, please. Thank you.
The Trump administration is kidnapping and trying to deport American citizens who look “foreign.”

No warrant. No due process. No rights.

Americans voted for cheaper eggs, not for a night of broken glass.

Among other things Melissa Hortman, murdered along with her husband yesterday by a far-right assassin, was a climate champion throughout her political career. I found a few things to that effect.

If you incite violence or destroy our communities, you are going to be held accountable. 

That kind of criminal behavior will not be tolerated. Full stop.

In these heavy times, raising my autistic 10 yr old anchors me in so many ways: yes she doesn’t sleep before 10:30 but just now we both were marveling at the moon and she said earnestly that it’s beautiful and it’s “art, moon art,” as if it’s the first time she saw it. She knows enchantment.

/4 The Trump administration will use violence here to test the waters for more violence and more authoritarianism. Watch, also, for the Trump administration to give clearer signals encouraging private violence by supporters.

Last week, @rhodesben.bsky.social and I did a Munk Debates against Kevin Roberts and Kellyanne Conway on whether Trump is leading America into a new golden age.

We won. This is from my closing statement.

There’s nothing golden about a movement that bathes in gratuitous cruelty.
