ZERO arrests at No Kings in NYC. (And the NYPD isnโt notorious for being sympathetic with people anti-Trump.) This proves what shameless liars Speaker Mike Johnson & Karoline Leavitt are to slander the participants as violent anarchists.

Swearing in isnโt some ceremony. You arenโt a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that. No phones, no staff, nothing. I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until sheโs sworn in. And solo visitors arenโt allowed during shutdown!

After the midterms Trump will be a lame duck, no matter what he says and the worst we all fear. Apparently itโs now slowly dawning on some of these career GOP pols that there will be life after Trump, and theyโll still be here after heโs gone and the angry public recriminations begin for real.

Stare decisis is a crucial democratic guardrail. But SCOTUS justices have been chipping it down to nothing - turning themselves into unelected lawmakers in a way the Framers never intended. If thatโs the job they wanted, they should have run for office, not taken lifetime appointments on the bench.

weโll see how his mayoral tenure shakes out but i am convinced that Mamdani has the juice. not just the charisma to win an election but the temperament to govern and the measured pragmatism of someone who genuinely believes what theyโre saying and wants to accomplish real things.

The correct response to Republicans widely depicting the coming protests as terrorism is to go out and protest. Each person should get 10 more people to do so. If Republicans are going to hint at violent state responses to legitimate protest, the only answer is bigger numbers.
