Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro got 27 years for trying to overturn the results of an election. Meanwhile Donald Trump is back in power. What does Brazil have that the U.S. doesn't? I was in Sao Paulo, Brazil and spoke to activists about what it takes to hold coup-plotters accountable.

HAPPY EASTER

I don’t want to hear anything from Theo Von and Joe Rogan besides an apology.

My proposal: - Abolish the Senate - Proportional representation in the House - Strip the presidency of most of its powers - Turn the Supreme Court into a Constitutional Court without the ability to overturn the legislature - Public financing of elections and limits on political spending

Giving my social media a serious pruning today. It's Tuesday; if you are a 'social media presence' and you haven't posted anything at all about #NoKings yet; you are dead to me.
