Tesla shareholders voted to offer Elon a trillion dollar incentive. But whether he gets it or not is up to us. He's gotta sell millions of cars and robots to bring in that ungodly sum. If you want to block it, join us in the streets #teslatakedown #MuskMustFall actionnetwork.org/event_campai...

Between what came before and what happened tonight, Dems ought to treat encounters with CBS reporters as presumptively hostile and untrustworthy. A small thing, but there’s no way out of this disaster if the party continues helplessly submitting to unequal treatment from ~all mediating institutions.

The NY Mayoral isn’t just about who leads New York. It’s about what kind of power defines our future. Zohran Mamdani’s campaign is what feminist politics looks like when it’s about redistribution, not rhetoric. 🧵 Why his win could matter for everyone → shaunnathomas.substack.com/p/mandani-v-...

Paragraph at the bottom confirms my suspicion that he’s ordering the DOJ to pay him $230 million so he can finance his ballroom. The Epstein Ballroom.

“Hope is not the conviction that something will turn out well, but the certainty that something makes sense, regardless of how it turns out.” -Vaclav Havel (on repeat, in my mind, all day)

The Kavanaugh Stop is now happening.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system. I am not fearful — I am fearless. We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

A Trump-loyal prosecutor just indicted NY AG Letitia James—days after Trump demanded it. This is a five-alarm fire for democracy. 🎥 Full breakdown: youtube.com/shorts/y-k4e...

At a conference about how we- the left- take more seriously our responsibility to broaden the tent and level up our approach to persuasion. Hosted by @waytowinus.bsky.social and @swayable.bsky.social and the brainchild of @jenancona.bsky.social Sharing my takeaways live…

Another great announcement today… The billionaire takeover of our Supreme Court has a name and a face: John Roberts. @thelisagraves' new book "Without Precedent" shows how he became the first justice installed by dark money—and how he's spent decades paying back the favor. Buy it!

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!

Trump directed the FBI to go after leftists so this seems like a good time to start talking in public again. To start… I need a roundup of what exactly just happened these last 2 weeks. Who has one? Fair warning: This post will not end on a high note.

This kind of repudiation of the Supreme Court by a state Supreme Court justice is very rare. But — speaking as a former Alaska Supreme Court clerk — this is also part of their structural purpose. There’s a reason our rights can be, and often are, given *better* protection under state constitutions.

The following is a statement from the WGA on ABC’s decision to pull ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’

Stunning. Nearly a dozen federal judges blowing the whistle on the runaway Roberts Court.

This is good: With Trump/RFK destroying CDC, JB Pritzker's officials are exploring the possibility of buying Covid vaccines from manufacturers and distributing them in-state themselves, source tells me. Dem govs must step up and fill the void. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1998...

DO NOT LOOK AWAY ICE arrested a 6yo boy with leukemia at #immigration court

The Roberts Court, in one fell swoop, has: 1) Allowed states to defund Planned Parenthood even for non-abortion care so to... 2) Rip away people's right to choose their care provider under Medicaid while... 3) Advancing a neoconfederate understanding of our civil rights laws. This can't go on.

If Musk & his pals are so concerned about increasing the national debt in Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill, why don’t they cut the $664 billion in tax breaks for the 1%; the $420 billion in tax breaks for large profitable corporations; & the $150 billion in increased military spending?

Hayes: Every provision in this program is cruel and they know it. That's why none of them spoke on it in committee. That's why they have no response. That's why they don't hold town halls. That's why they don't answer questions. All they do is tweet, repeat, and hide in the back until they vote yes

This kid writing a thoughtful and eloquent letter about teammates and support and working to be better and do better every day while members of my own fucking party run anti-trans ads gives me hope for the future when our generation is dead and these kids are in control

“Polestar wants to deliver the final blow. … Polestar is offering anyone who owns or leases a Tesla $5,000 off a lease on a brand new Polestar 3. Combined with their latest $15,000 Polestar Clean Vehicle Incentive, any Tesla driver can buy a Polestar 3 for a whopping $20,000 off.”

self-vandalizing

🧵 The passage of this dangerous Republican funding bill is a travesty. The ongoing administrative coup led by Donald Trump and Elon Musk is a constitutional crisis. The authoritarians stripping away our rights and trying to loot the government to enrich the billionaires are a five-alarm fire.

Every worker deserves a safe a secure retirement. Just this week we saw Tesla stock continue to sink faster than a Cybertruck in quicksand. So we're asking asset managers to honestly look at their investments in Tesla. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/27/b...

Happy belated Jen- if you don’t follow the great JFA this is the day to correct that.

I voted ‘no’ on H.R. 30. This bill empowers rapists and criminals, putting survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault—including those who are in this country legally—at risk. Rather than protecting the vulnerable, this bill will enact horrific consequences on survivors. 1/

@ilyseh.bsky.social wrote about the election and what it prescribes for the future- highly recommend. Covers a lot of ground very efficiently and insightfully and offers something a lot deeper than Slotkin-esque critiques of “identity” politics (on both sides). democracyjournal.org/arguments/ar...

Friends, the backlash we’re seeing is a bigger problem than DT’s abuser cabinet. It’s a symptom of a problem we will only overcome by working with our own people in our communities and building from there. We need to start now. @ultraviolet.bsky.social wants to help you do it: mobilize.us/s/73ct5f

More to build on here given the “discourse” this weekend: Fellas (I do mean the men talking rn), NAFTA had more to do with this moment than any aclu questionnaire. You cannot be an avatar for the institutions people don’t trust and expect them to vote for you. The Democratic brand is that avatar.

Finally read the Jentleson oped, the various reax and wow. The number of factions of the Dem party looking for any reason not to have to talk about neoliberal economic policy is astounding.

My initial take on this election is aimed squarely at corporate Democrats: you will not use sexism to hide behind a conversation about neoliberal economic policy. Sorry. medium.com/@SLThomas/ka...

Went from a women’s leadership conference in Iceland to a women donors conference in Denver. Similar stories, fears and sources of hope: 1) being in a two way conversation w/women across race and class between and during election cycles is how we win— how we counter disinfo and build community

New thread. the men and boys panel needs its own. #Reykjavik24 Gary Barker at Equimundo who I published with last year about the ways the radicalization of young men impacts all of us asking: How can we call out the men who do harm while calling in all other men to be a part of this cause?

The problem isn't that we lack a liberal media ecosystem to compete with the right, it's that we have a liberal media ecosystem whose biggest platforms are committed to flattering the assumptions of liberal elites instead of informing and mobilizing an actual political movement.

This is fun trivia. According to Dr. Anino Emuwa, founder of 100 Women @Davos. Women CEOs make more money than men among the S&P 400 (there are only 40). Not because of salaries but because of bonuses. Their compensation is tied to data driven performance (and doing better). #Reykjavik24
