I want to live, and I go on living in spite of all logic. Though I may not believe in the order of the universe, I love the sticky little leaves as they open in spring, I love the blue sky, I love one or two people – though for the life of me I sometimes really wonder why. -- Fyodor Dostoevsky

I ran for DNC vice chair after massive losses in 2024 because I believed we needed to change our party. Leadership disagreed with my work to primary asleep-at-the-wheel incumbents and challenge the status quo. Now, they are spiking an autopsy of the election that gave us Trump 2.0. (1/2)

BREAKING: The Democratic National Committee will NOT release its long-awaited autopsy on Trump's 2024 win. The report is completed but Dem leaders decided it could distract from their winning streak, so it will remain secret. Not good.

The US has now placed sanctions on 8 ICC judges as well as prosecutors, staff and NGOs that work with the ICC.
For pursuing war criminals.
Take a moment to let that really settle in.

Federal agents breaking into worksites, chasing skilled laborers and bloodying them, trapping roofers outside in subzero temperatures—and yet the construction industry isn't making a peep. Our @crampell.bsky.social explains why:

Trump Is Walloping Construction Businesses. The Industry Stays Quiet.

Raids on work sites. Roofers under siege. But builders keep mum.

Jack Smith has requested that Jim Jordan release the entire video of his 8-hour closed-door testimony which he gave this week to the House Judiciary Committee.

Will Jordan release the video to the public?

If not, why not?
