Hey NY Times-- It is still a "fringe theory" -- every court has rejected it. There is still a "broad consensus" -- John Eastman is a disgraced lawyer under indictment. The only thing that has changed is the Times.

This is key, because low-information voters are a big reason he got into office in the first place.

Vatican to announce its choice of a new Pope in a Signal group chat.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

Liberals and progressives are the only ones with any agency, according to most political discourse. You *never* hear about a conservative need to understand liberals. It’s always on the left to fix things.

The largest office-to-residential conversion in American history, at 25 Water St., is almost done. (1,300 units!) Includes affordable apartments. Rents as low as $1,166 for a 2-bed. HPD lottery open now: housingconnect.nyc.gov/PublicWeb/de... We need to do this in many, many more buildings.

10 Senate Democrats caved on Friday by voting to give Trump more power to dismantle the federal government. These senators need to keep hearing from their constituents about this betrayal: indivisible.org/resource/tel...

FWIW, regardless of what you think on Schumer's strategies, I don't think it would be a terrible idea for Democrats to just throw him overboard. He's old, unpopular and one of the "old guard" leaders of what is currently a very unpopular party. There's no real good argument for keeping him on.

It's not too late for Mr. Schumer to do the right thing. A quick statement that he just wanted to avoid catastrophe, in good faith, but after careful consideration and thoughtful deliberation with colleagues, voting "no" is the right move.

Extraordinary moment — Nancy Pelosi issues a statement calling on Democratic senators to reject the House funding bill, i.e. to defy Chuck Schumer. "Democratic senators should listen to the women," she says, referring to Murray/DeLauro who want a 1-month stopgap bill instead.

I'm voting NO on the Republican shutdown bill. NO on handing Donald Trump and Elon Musk a blank check to spend your taxpayer money however they want. NO on cutting funding that helps families put food on the table and crack down on wealthy tax cheats. We need to push back.

Keep a list. 19 Democrats including, Chuck Schumer, backed MAGA Republicans in making corruption, tax evasion and fraud easier. They voted to repeal the rule requiring cryptocurrency bros to adhere to the same tax reporting rules as stock brokers. #3E #EndOligarchy

Homelessness is a policy choice. We could chose to decimate it!

I don’t know how to stop being mad at how dumb everyone is

BREAKING — NBC celebrates Black History Month by firing its most prominent primetime Black cable news host and its most prominent weekend Black cable news host, and pushing out its Black nightly news anchor.

This is really smart by @sanders.senate.gov Go to republican districts and push voters to pressure their republican reps. www.commondreams.org/news/bernie-...

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

I know complaining about NYT headlines is old hat, but this is NUTS to me – every word choice glamorizes him as an exciting provocative badass, instead of focusing on the danger and illegality of what’s happening

*sigh* @nytimes.com

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Elon Musk's and X's Role in 2024 Election Interference, a letter from an alleged X whistleblower. "What started as US election interference has now spread to other countries. We're currently doing the same thing in Germany and other European nations." theconcernedbird.substack.com/p/elon-musks...

Russian disinfo network “Matryoshka” is migrating to Bluesky as exodus from X continues. You may notice them as posters who are smearing Chrystia Freeland, pushing anti-Ukrainian narratives, Germany's election, anti-EU rhetoric, anti-NATO rhetoric, etc. Their numbers are still low, so stay vigilant

November brought a 6% shift nationally towards Trump. But in Wisconsin, it was only 1.5%. At the same time, we reelected Tammy Baldwin to the Senate and flipped 14 state legislative seats. Organizing and communicating year-round matters. We can do this in every state and territory.
