I am really pleased he and other democrats are saying this more. I think it's important as a way to incentivize people to resist, and also because it's a promise, and pols generally try to follow through on repeated promises.
Pritzker: "Stephen Miller is clearly ordering people to break the law. So he should know that yeah, it may be three years from now that he is held accountable, but I think it's important for them to know that whatever they do now, it's not like we're going to forget."

If this is what happens when people dare to write about things someone actually said—a necessary endeavor when it's become clear many folks have a very incomplete picture of the man—we're in trouble.

Emil Bove's confirmation was only possible because Democrats caved to a vile right-wing smear campaign of Adeel Mangi, who would have been the first Muslim appeals court judge, when Biden nominated him for the same seat last year. Absolutely disgraceful. Bove's confirmation is on them, too.
The Cowardice of Senate Democrats Made Emil Bove’s Confirmation Possible
Senate Democrats could have confirmed Biden nominee Adeel Mangi to the Third Circuit last year. They caved to a disgraceful right-wing smear campaign instead.

Considering Cuomo is literally on Netanyahu’s legal team defending him against the International Criminal Court’s arrest warrants for crimes against humanity and war crimes—and he’s heavily supported by MAGA billionaire Bill Ackman who wants war with Iran—it’s safe to say his loyalties are not here.
Said to be mulling NYC mayor run, Andrew Cuomo joins 'dream team' to defend Netanyahu
Lawyer Alan Dershowitz convened the team to defend the prime minister of Israel as he faces international war crime charges over Israel's actions in Gaza.

This one of those atrocities that you can't undo once it's sold...
Buried in a Senate budget bill is a massive giveaway to corporate developers and fossil fuel companies.

It forces the sale of at least 2 million acres of Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management land in 11 Western states *every 60 days* until millions of acres are gone.

I was thinking this morning about small-town No Kings protests. In April, I door knocked for the WI Supreme Court race in a rural area. Most of the people I talked to thought they were the only non-Trumper in their neighborhood, and many were wrong. I hope some of them found that out yesterday.

A Minneapolis community surrounded ICE agents, telling them to “get the fuck out”.

In the thread’s videos, you can see ICE detain someone and shove people around.

Great work, Minneapolis ✊. Now, @governorwalz.mn.gov what are you going to do about this?

Tesla shouldn't have this "self-driving" feature on roads with a human behind the wheel, let alone robotaxis! This is nuts.
Tesla FSD 13.2.9 will still run a kid down while illegally blowing past a stopped school bus with red lights flashing and stop sign extended.

Elon Musk how many kids does FSD need to run over before you fix this?

I warned about this danger at the 2023 Super Bowl!

Unbelievable. With Dem support, the senate passes an industry-friendly crypto bill that does nothing about Trump's crypto corruption.

Ignore these Dems' speeches. Watch their votes. They're telling you they don't get it. And then they spam you to say Trump is bad so please donate more money.
Update: I'm hearing the senate vote on this stupid crypto bill could come tonight.

This week should be about the despicable GOP reconciliation bill. The few Dems on this crypto bill aren't just wrong on policy, they're fracturing the party at a time we should be unified against GOP corruption.

A deafening amount of noise needs to be made about this. DEAFENING.
This is big: House Republicans tucked language into the budget res “rule” that bans the House from voting to terminate Trump’s emergency declaration used to impose tariffs. TL;DR lawmakers who vote for this are officially giving up their power to revoke his tariffs until October.

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.

This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.

Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.

And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.
