I was the guest who "flat out" last night on MSNBC said this has to be the end of Chuck Schumer as Democratic leader of the Senate. We were on live when news of the deal broke and how Schumer barely was part of the talks and he could not hold the Democrats together.

ICYMI, Trump tried to warn the world about Bin Laden a whole year before he ‘blew up’ the WTC. He also tried to warn Pete Hegseth. Why he tried to warn a 20 yr old Pete Hegseth in 2000 of what Bin Laden was going to do in 2001– I have no idea, but anyway- Trump’s so fucking smart OMG

I launched the American Mobilization Project because the fight can’t wait until 2028 or even 2026. AMP channels thousands of small contributions to anti-Trump mobilization all over the country. 1/ A few groups funded by AMP had big wins last night.

They want us to feel powerless, but we have real power.
AMP’s goal is to supercharge deep organizing and mobilize as many Americans as possible by investing in the state and local organizations already doing this work on the ground.

I know that there is going to be a lot of criticism and vitriol directed at Cheney today — particularly on this site — but we should endeavor to recognize when those with whom we disagree, however vehemently, stand up and do the right thing. We won’t defeat authoritarianism if we can’t do that.

With millions at risk of losing SNAP in the coming days, a reminder: hunger doesn't happen in isolation. When food assistance disappears, families use rent money to eat. Then come evictions and homelessness. Housing, food, healthcare—it's all connected. Cut one thread and the whole thing unravels.

Pay attention. Something dark might be coming. The murder of Charlie Kirk could have united Americans to confront political violence. Instead, Trump and his anti-democratic radicals look to be readying a campaign to destroy dissent. 1/ Here's what's happening.
