Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

Angus: I’m saying we need to start building progressive media that people actually listen to.

I’ll give you an example: MeidasTouch. Wherever I go in Canada, working-class people listen to MeidasTouch because they talk about what’s happening in a practical way. They give facts.

Hey there Scott Walker. I noticed you deleted this after learning that in fact the shooter was from the right. I don’t think it matters either way, violence is violence, so I’m waiting for you to tweet the same thing with corrected facts?

Cuz you’re uh, to use your words, “being silent.”

Minnesota’s flags will fly at half staff in honor and remembrance of Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman.

She woke up every morning determined to make Minnesota a better place, and she will be greatly missed.

This is how Mitch McConnell should be remembered:

Without him, there’s no President Trump right now—he had the chance to convict during impeachment and end it, but he didn’t.

Without him, there’s no stacked conservative Supreme Court—you’d have more rights today.

Pritzker: If we don’t want to repeat history, then for god’s sake, in this moment, we better be strong enough to learn from it.
