Dan Nexon hits this excellent level-set out of the park with a timely & sober message. The one thing I haven't been able to verbalize (until now) is that "our constitution has failed." He's not wrong. We are at an inflection point & we need to choose our next steps carefully, with this in mind.

These disgusting "government officials" are shameful, boorish & dangerous agents of their dear leader, imitating the reprehensible conduct he routinely models. We are in treacherous territory & we must continue to hold their feet to the fire, demand accountability & #resist. #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

Trump’s voters have become like the members of the administration, delighting in the crassness and obscenity that pours out of the president and his circle whenever they are challenged. But policies suffer and the public is poorly served. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Precisely why I canceled my WaPo subscription. They have chosen to bend the knee many times and in many ways... And they obviously continue to do so with abandon.

Last night, tragically, 8 Democrats caved. But the struggle continues. Short term, we must not allow health care premiums to double for more than 20 million Americans. Long term, we must provide health care to all as a human right.

Bernie said: “What this Senate is about to do is make a horrific situation even … worse ... we are on a pathway to throw 15,000,000 Americans off of Medicaid and off the Affordable Care Act … It would be a policy and political disaster for Democrats to cave.”

The depths to which the R's will sink knows no low. The Senate D's are trying to match the antics by selling out the American people who have said loudly, in no uncertain terms, that we will have #NoKings. Every new day brings a fresh hell of infuriating and deplorable behavior from these jokers.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

🙄 He must be waiting for December 3rd.

Don't worry, Donald Trump, all those middle fingers were simply signaling that it was first down

YES!

What she said! 💪 Way to go, @mikiesherrill.bsky.social! Thank you for standing up for your constituents, common decency, the very basic principles of humanity, and for all Americans who thirst for leadership with a heart AND a spine!

So. Much. This!

If you cannot see the problem(s) here, you've not been paying attention. #resist

One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

Empires don’t fall when they run out of money. They fall when they run out of mercy.

In the past month, a serial child rapist has murdered 100 people in the Caribbean, destroyed the East Wing of the White House, neutralized our Congress, & stolen food from 20% of American children. We pay him, house him, drive him, fly him, and pay for his bodyguards. Call your reps 202-224-3121

Please give if you're able. There are families going without food in the richest country in the world. This is unacceptable and we mustn't let our better angels be trampled under the tyranny. give.feedingamerica.org/a/donate-mon...

ICE has been targeting young kids for months, separating families and instilling fear. Tell Congress to pass legislation ensuring no child is arrested without a warrant and coerced to give up their rights by immigration agents.

Yet another disappointing day in the obituaries. 🙄

As 42 million Americans who rely on SNAP go another day without November benefits, I am leading the introduction of the Keep SNAP & WIC Funded Act of 2025 to stop the Trump Administration from illegally withholding available funds.    Learn more: hayes.house.gov/2025/11/haye...

@michael-feinberg.bsky.social you are always so thorough and insightful on @nicollewallace.bsky.social's show and it's SO GREAT to listen to you and @weissmann.substack.com speak in paragraphs. Thank you for your service. You are an inspiration and I appreciate you, Nicolle & Andrew!

I want to make sure people understand what a big deal this statement is: the FBIAA is only effective inasmuch as it preserves access to and a relationship with the Director. If it is articulating these concerns this forcefully, explicitly referencing Patel, things are much worse than people realize.

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification. I glanced down at the message. “Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began. So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/anna...

You just know that there are at least a few discussions in newsrooms today where they are sitting there gobsmacked at what Jeffery Goldberg had the stones to do, and they are saying, "wait, is this what we should be doing too??!?" Yes, motherfuckers, yes. Courage is contagious.

We confess to having waged a progressive war in the cause of a kinder, more diverse, more compassionate nation where access to education, care, opportunity, and dignity is the right of every human being—and the Right has been largely victorious against us. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/congratula...

Look, I get it: it’s terrifying to admit what’s happening right now. No one wants to believe their nation is falling into authoritarianism, that the norms they relied on in the past are no longer givens, that the “can’t happen here’s” are happening here... johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/to-my-apol...

Kilmar Abrego Garcia isn't a criminal. Those trying to deny him his human and civil rights while using the most powerful platforms in this nation to intentionally slander him are criminals. Donald Trump JD Vance Marco Rubio Pam Bondi Karoline Leavitt

Remaining quiet in turbulent times is a luxury that perceived privilege and intellectual ignorance afford. That passivity is born out of the illusion of safety. (Trust me, none of us is safe.) johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/to-my-apol...

I do not consider myself a religious person; however, I have the greatest admiration for every word that I've read written by @JohnPavlovitz. Thank you for your clear-eyed & firm but loving steadfastness in the face of so many hypocrites who speak “love” & “Jesus,” but who hate in their hearts.

Happy One Month Anniversary to this story.

Wow- Himes during a heated exchange w/Will Cain on Fox: "I'm not gonna listen to to you tell me that this about a partisan advantage...it is by the grace of God that we don't have dead pilots right now...it makes me want to throw up to hear you turn this into a partisan issue. You just need to stop"

Israeli settlers beat up Hamdan Ballal, one of the Palestinian co-directors of the documentary film No Other Land, in the occupied West Bank, according to witnesses. He was then detained by the Israeli military.

The Trump administration just blatantly broke the law according to their own top intelligence official.

Casar: You can quickly explain Doge with just two numbers. First: $8 million a day. That’s how much Elon Musk collects in federal government contracts. Second: $65 a day. That’s how much the average senior—someone who has worked their entire life—gets from Social Security.…
