Coming tomorrow on @crosstabspodcast.com, my conversation with @dhuckelbridge.bsky.social of @paidleaveforall.bsky.social. This is part of a future vision that is (or should be) what the power is for. Subscribe to get it in your ears mid-day.

Some issues unite the Democratic caucus—and voters across party. “There are some areas where the New Democrats’ road map intersects with progressive goals. The New Democrats are endorsing the creation of a universal paid family and medical leave program” #PaidLeaveForAll www.cnbc.com/2026/02/11/e...

1. Chappell Roan says she is no longer represented by the Wasserman agency, which is owned by major Democratic donor and LA Olympics chairman Casey Wasserman. This comes after emails between Wasserman and Ghislaine Maxwell were revealed in the last Epstein files dump.

In the US, the DOJ is refusing to comply with the law, and Ghislaine Maxwell thinks she can buy her clemency. Meanwhile, other countries are demanding accountability and forcing leaders to step down. Tomorrow, I’m going to the DOJ to see the unredacted files. The fight for justice continues.

“We dream. We love. We jump. And sometimes we fall. Sometimes our hearts are broken. Sometimes we don’t achieve the dreams we know we could have. But that is the also the beauty of life; we can try.” Lindsey Vonn

He has “been in an Ice detention facility in Texas for nearly five months, despite having no criminal record, ‘not even a parking ticket’” showing a license and a work permit. What

Ossoff: We were told that MAGA was for working-class Americans. But this is a government of, by, and for the ultra-rich. It’s the wealthiest Cabinet ever. This is the Epstein class. They are the elites they pretend to hate.

“.. This is a 37 point shift left.”

Hey Europe, thanks for investigating these unfathomable crimes while our country is busy instead doing more crimes!

Cooking Puerto Rican snacks for the concert tomorrow, how about you

Americans can no longer afford health insurance. We are an outlier on paid leave and care. The minimum—poverty—wage hasn’t changed in over 15 years. Education and housing costs multiply. And workers continue to be the backbone of our economy. They think they made those billions on their own?

What a legacy.

He really told Kaitlan Collins she didn’t smile enough in response to a question about the Epstein files. He really did. That’s the best he had.

I spent much of a career building the case and research for the benefits of women in leadership and elected office—they passed more legislation, resolved more conflict, protected families and the environment. Now I cannot believe the best case is most of them do not traffic and murder children.

I hadn’t known this. Two men who were accused of sexual abuse on the Shitty Media Men document that I created back in 2017 reached out to Michael Wolff for help as they looked to sue me, and Wolf forwarded their concerns to Jeffrey Epstein. Epstein offered to help. www.jmail.world/thread/EFTA0...

Donald Trump is testing our democracy in this moment. Veterans - like the folks @commondefense.bsky.social- are standing up for our freedoms. They know better than anyone what it means to put service over self. I’m honored to earn Common Defense's endorsement of my campaign for US Senate.

DHS is quietly moving forward with a plan for “a nationwide ‘ghost network’ of concentration camps” including “biohazard incinerators.” www.commondreams.org/news/militar...

I know you've heard that a federal judge ordered the release of 5 year old Liam Conejo Arias and his father, and that they're now home. But did you look at the judge's order? It's less than 2.5 pages and well worth a minute. "Jesus wept." Link to pdf: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I just keep thinking: These are not just files. These were children. They harmed and raped and abused and tortured children in the worst ways imaginable, more than we know. They were children.

Morning Shift reports Matt Bowman, the ADF lawyer who blocked legal abortions for unaccompanied children in Trump custody who had been raped, is now advising the agency that enforces the rights of women workers subscriber.politicopro.com/article/2026...

In the most recent Epstein files, “The New York Times identified more than 5,300 files containing more than 38,000 references to Mr. Trump, his wife, his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida, and other related words and phrases.”

There are a lot of people with a lot of money to bypass the traditional or legacy media and make sure no one misses or forgets about this

I don’t want a single news story about a new arch or a horrible bribe of a documentary. I want news stories asking who’s going to jail or being investigated because of the criminal filth in the Epstein files. I want coverage and accountability.

Based on what I've seen, at least 4 current/former Harvard professors have now been named as Epstein associates. Which seems notable given prior reporting that Epstein used false promises of "elite" college admissions to lure young girls into his web of abuse. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Incontinent man with lowest approval ratings goes after the president with highest approval ratings who built a durable, multiracial, cross-class electoral coalition on heels of being exposed as one of the most corrupt criminals of all time may not have the effect he thinks

These files (actually safely redacted for survivors) should be in Super Bowl ads, Times Square, newspapers, billboards in every state. These monsters should be exposed and never have a day of peace or power again.

BREAKING: The DOJ just DELETED a document in the Epstein Files that contained allegations made against Donald Trump. But we saved it. 👇

Evil. Absolute evil.

Reminding myself it is important to share the horrifying news today but they prefer that to amplifying every act of protest, resistance, leadership, and courage. So I’m going to do that even more.

This morning feeling gratitude for every business and institution closing today and putting out statements, every business giving proceeds to mutual aid and rights groups, every person in the streets, everyone responding like this is a crisis, and with courage and clarity. This is patriotism.

Waking up to the death of the Bill of Rights on America’s Semiquincentennial.

WATCH as Maine nurses show up at Susan Collins’ office to demand she vote against funding ICE following ICE’s killing of nurse Alex Pretti. #ICEoffOurStreets

Let’s be clear, Trump cheats at everything, even golf.

This is big. In a legislative and political landscape that is so bleak, this is something we can come to consensus on. It's something tangible we can do to help vulnerable families. Thank you to our partners @abetterbalance.org and lead sponsor @pettersen.house.gov. www.usatoday.com/story/life/h...

Ossoff: "This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County Elections office ... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020."

We don’t need body cameras. The guy who shot Renée Good literally was taking his own camera video while he did it. We have video from every angle of these murders and expert analysis. What we do need is to abolish ICE. Every Democrat and elected official of conscience should agree and vote as such.

“Doctor” Oz also denies the Armenian genocide. Is fraud the new dog whistle? (Also, bakery fraud? What?) @anca-dc.bsky.social

A $1,000 “Trump account” for babies to be invested in stock indexes for 18 years misses the mark entirely. It doesn’t help cover the immediate, overwhelming costs of parenthood and is out of reach for people who need it most. Moreover, he can’t change the channel with cheap fake policy. Abolish ICE

There are more of us than there are of them. Our sincere love for each other and our simple wish to live is stronger than their hate. Here is a link hopefully it works www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

I’d be much more impressed by elected and former elected leaders showing up with the people, in front of cameras, than tweeting late statements.

The upside down, smearing a literal Boy Scout.

John Mitnick, who served as General Counsel for the Department of Homeland Security in Trump’s first term: “I am enraged and embarrassed by DHS’s lawlessness, fascism, and cruelty. “Impeach and remove Trump—now.”

Really hard to look at this and all the other examples of bravery and kindness from ordinary people in this moment not think also of the tremendous cowardice exhibited over the past year by some of the richest, most well-protected people in business, media and politics

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump. Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

NEWS: @nationalnurses.bsky.social “demands Congress abolish ICE entirely. We will be doing everything in our power to vote out any elected official who supports funding for this all-out assault on the health, safety, and civil rights of our people.”

“Freedom is not free. We have to work at it. Nurture it. Protect it. Even sacrifice for it.”

Alex Pretti grew up in Green Bay, Wisconsin, where he played football, baseball and ran track for Preble High School. He was a Boy Scout and sang in the Green Bay Boy Choir. apnews.com/article/immi...

An insane, perfect encapsulation of it all: The same day Trump’s agents kill a Veterans Affairs ICU nurse in broad daylight, the CEOs of Apple and Amazon join Trump to watch a private screening of a film about his wife directed by an alleged sexual abuser who was seen shirtless in the Epstein Files

They said “boo hoo” after murdering a bystander. A poet, a mom. A nurse. They’ve referenced the joy of video games. They’ve clapped. I don’t know where or how these people became this but they cannot be given another dollar or an inch. This must be a turning point.

He was protecting a woman they were attacking in the street. And they shot him. It’s on video.
