“I joined the Living Wage for All Coalition because we are in an affordability crisis, and no democracy can survive when millions of families cannot afford to live. Democrats need to deliver bold vision and action on affordability and living wages to succeed." variety.com/2025/politic...

For Oregonians this weekend, the big show at the historical society is...gelatin salads. I found a gelatin cookbook from the 60s. I may need to enter the competition. www.oregonlive.com/living/2025/...

The fight over whether to hang a legally-mandated plaque to honor Jan 6 police officer responders.... has literally become a federal case Just filed to CBS News

This is a time in our nation's history that will be remembered for all the broken fools who needed so much attention.

Everyday American hero Susan Tincher, arrested by ICE for simply questioning their actions against her neighbors in Minneapolis.

Excellent and well-deserved critique of the NY Time's inadequate coverage of this authoritarian regime, by Dan Froomkin.

"Readers are not asking the Times to print propaganda or stump for Democrats. In my view, they simply want the Times to be more clear-eyed and honest about the depth of the crisis this country currently faces." — @froomkin.bsky.social Sad but accurate, Dan. presswatchers.org/2025/12/new-...

"Donald Trump is getting worse. He can’t stand to be questioned. He especially can’t stand to be questioned by strong female reporters. And he’s increasingly unable to control his abusive, misogynistic behavior. This is wrong—and it needs to stop." www.americaamerica.news/p/trumps-abu...

www.usatoday.com/story/news/w... HONDURAS ISSUED AN ARREST WARRANT FOR THEIR EX-PRESIDENT THAT TRUMP PARDONED!!!

It was and is inevitable that the personal story of Trump ends in abject failure and humiliation. The only question now is if we let him destroy the country completely while he's crashing.

Ok A.I. nailed this one, credit where it’s due www.mediaite.com/politics/tru...

Another grand jury has refused to indict a person on the basis of DoJ's bs charges related to ICE activities in Chicago.

The Founders built a system designed to enable and legally legitimize popular resistance to a tyrant, via strong free speech protections, the right to jury trial, and all sorts of restrictions on direct federal government action against individuals. And the People are resisting, as elites cower.

Helpful tips for reporters from Poynter, especially in the Trump era when this is increasingly common. (Example: tried to interview Kari Lake at the Kennedy Center. She began with a series of insults, invited a nearby conservative reporter to denounce us too, and then got an aide to record us.)

Everyone loves when a billionaire grifter president who was born into massive wealth lectures them on how their affordability struggles are a hoax and everything is fine, but they also need to spend less and ration baby dolls for some unrelated reason. A winning midterm message.

Glad to hear it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zf-9...

Tommy Tuberville says things George Wallace wouldn’t have. There’s no code language to decipher. He puts the hate on a plate.

Wow. Trump personally intervened to block more than 4,100 Jan. 6 documents records that injured police officers had subpoenaed as part of their lawsuit after being violently attacked by MAGA rioters. The Department of Justice confirmed in a new court filing that Trump invoked

I’ve seen the Trump Administration do many terrible things, but this one is a first. They wrongfully deported a 19-year-old Austin constituent in shackles. When she spoke out, armed ICE agents were sent in an unmarked van to threaten her parents. (1/2) youtube.com/shorts/mgYyo...

This is a BIG deal! www.aft.org/press-releas...

holy get out the vote, Batman!✊ 👏👏👏

Say what?! This is a bummer. ☹️ www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0qK...

This is the most consequential story for the 2026 midterms. Yet, I cannot find it anywhere on legacy media. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Ignore click-bait title (this is not aimed at Trump) - but this *is* an excellent scathing parody of Propaganda Barbie, aka Karoline Leavitt.

Really great convo here with V (Under the Desk News) and Amanda Litman, founder of Run For Something, about the *massive* # of Dems running for office in 2026, and related chat about messaging, evil Heritage Fdn's Project 2026, and much more. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FG5m...

Rick Wilson asking for crowd engagement on pushing back against slop AI content that imitates real people (himself being case in point). IT's true- this shit is popping up everywhere and people think it's the real person. Saw this with Jasmine Crockett recently as well.

MAGA Traitors Need to "Go Back" and Leave America If the GOP hates the Constitution, diversity, free and fair elections, voting rights, and the concept of separation of church and state, then maybe it hates America & should leave. open.substack.com/pub/thelefth...

The most important political fault line of our time is over whether children are people or property.

Trump’s not touching a single Californian on my watch.

Great interview here with Margaret Atwood, in convo with Kara Swisher. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sn7a...

WATCH: An ICE agent pushes away a home security camera as she approaches a house. This is what a police state looks like.

Good summary of some of the b.s. the U.S. is doing right now in supporting Russia and screwing Ukraine and our allies. F this regime. www.youtube.com/watch?v=PrY4...

To be very clear: Kennedy's team is messing with a vaccine which has led to a 99 percent drop in the incidence of hepatitis B, which kills, early and painfully, 25 percent of the children who get it.

This is funny-- how our state names got abbreviated. 😂 www.youtube.com/shorts/u29XF...

Ann Lowe was the Black genius behind Jackie Kennedy’s iconic wedding gown. Before the fashion world was ready to credit a Black woman’s talent, Lowe was already designing for America’s most powerful families. Brilliant. Bold. Innovative. Undervalued. And nearly erased from history.

I want to know where the reporting is on how every significant immigration reform/improvement proposed by Dems in Congress has been consistently voted down by Rs _for decades_? They don't want to actually solve the problem--they want to campaign on it. And bash Dems with it.

From the @wsj.com chief foreign correspondent

Whether these men were on a list or not is irrelevant THERE. IS. NO. JUSTIFICATION. FOR. KILLING. SHIPWRECKED. MEN.

The grasshopper gets it — divide and conquer. Today’s robber barons use the same playbook. But together, we have all the power. Watch.

I’m driving through rural Texas, prime insane right wing billboard territory and I just saw a billboard that said “no healthcare for the peasants but a ballroom for the king” pretty big sentiment shift for the area

25th Amendment now.
