I just re-read a million of these lists and by the end of my ten calls, I finally got it down to a science. Here's my strategy—

I got to write about how @bethrooney.bsky.social & I wrote LEAF TOWN FOREVER, out next month from @uminnpress.bsky.social, in a sneak peek for @chicagorevbooks.bsky.social! chireviewofbooks.com/2025/09/17/a...

"A ghost story that blends the horrors of the supernatural, the unexplainable, and the unknown." Hannah Korbel's review of "The Whistler" by Nick Medina (@berkleypub.bsky.social) is out now. chireviewofbooks.com/2025/09/18/t...

white houses only do this when they're very distressed

Big Balls finally dropped

Dems think they’re rising above partisan politics by killing impeachment. Really they’re falling down on constitutional duty. Trump illegally bombs Iran without Congress, 128 Dems + leadership join the GOP. We can’t confuse complicity for pragmatism. You don’t fight authoritarianism by enabling it.

Donald Trump illegally took military action against Iran—without congressional authorization—risking dragging us into another endless war. I am calling for an immediate emergency session of Congress to vote on the War Powers Resolution.

If over twelve million people protested my birthday I genuinely think I would launch myself into space

Two things are happening. The extreme right is doubling down on terrifying violence. And a democratic coalition for life and decency is mobilizing at a massive scale. Whatever else happens in the US this weekend, the No Kings rallies show where the most powerful political energy is surging.

If you know you know

If a military parade marches down a street and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?

Way to go, Oklahoma and Indiana! Massive turnout even in the rain. So proud of you for showing up!

Trump’s provocations have turned Angelenos into pedestrians

White people like the IDEA of tough immigration, but having to see the reality is not something they can stomach. Trump and Miller were too stupid to realize that truth.

Coyote pups at Graceland Cemetery!

i think this is exactly right

Along with abolishing ICE we should abolish all for-profit prison companies in the country.

Pope Leo’s first US episcopal appointment, San Diego’s Bishop-designate Pham, a Vietnamese refugee, invites priests and faith leaders to “stand in solidarity”with migrants at courthouse on June 20, as they make court appearances.

Every major Dem politician needs to realize that, in this environment, they can schedule a "speech to the nation," like Newsom did, and get tons of media coverage. Just do it.

One thing Newsom has shown is key to effectively deal with Trump & the MAGA propaganda machine: You must respond immediately & call out the lies. You can’t wait until hours/days later, then answer in a press conference, statement, scripted speech. All Dems should learn from it.

The Trump administration is launching a sneaky new attack on civil rights protections for women, girls, people of color, and disabled people—through the Department of @energy.

💚📣Huge thank you to all who came to the Save CDC rally and spoke out against the harm that RFKJ is doing to the health and safety of the American people. We know what will happen if vaccine confidence continues to fall and access is restricted. We cannot stay silent www.11alive.com/video/news/l...

UPDATE: David Huerta was just released from custody!

Like every day, today is a great day to call your Representative and tell them to cosponsor Articles of Impeachment. Tell them to vote YES on impeachment. Be clear, direct, polite, and persistent. How to advocate for impeachment in just five minutes: citizensimpeachment.com/advocate-for...

Memorandum from D. Trump — I hereby call into Federal service members and units of the National Guard… at locations where protests against these functions are occurring or are likely to occur. He’s afraid. He wants to be a king. And he knows we can stop him. But only if we show up. 6/14 ❌👑

NEW: Texas lawmakers quietly rejected a proof of citizenship bill for voter registration in a surprise move for the deep-red state. Advocates say Republican lawmakers backed off when they realized it could disenfranchise their own voters. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

it sounds like some people are saying you shouldn’t protest because it plays into Trump’s hand and I’m not really sure what they think sitting at home is doing
