Thank you for coming to my Teddy talk.

The texts published as read. Just saying. Seems like someone who flunked out of high school drama class and decided to work for Krazy Kash instead

if you want to understand tailoring, you only need to watch mid-century movies, when actors were dressed by tailors, not brands. in the 1944 film cover girl, gene kelly's suit drapes beautifully, moving with him, not against him. collar stays on his neck, even as he dances.

Starting November 1st, New Mexico will become the first state to offer free universal childcare to all its residents. It's expected to save families over $12,000 per child annually. This is a huge step forward — and a reminder that we have the power to fix the system.

I stand with Matthew Dowd.

Tonight on my SiriusXM show from 6 to 9PMET on channel 127

Trump reports Charlie Kirk has passed.. My thoughts are with Charlie’s friends and family🙏🏼 This is wrong on every level and then some and should rightly be called out and denounced by everyone..

📍RFK Jr. has crossed the Rubicon. The war on science isn’t looming - it’s here. I had hoped that after the darkest days of the pandemic, we could start rebuilding a stronger science world. I was wrong. So, starting today, I’m back. And I want you to join me. drericding.substack.com/p/im-back-be...

I’m proud to introduce the CLEAR Act, a bipartisan bill that invests $100M a year to help states, Tribes, and territories prepare for disasters, protect families, and build resilience.

On this day in 1966, Star Trek first beamed into living rooms across America. None of us could have imagined then the journey it would set us on. And not just the cast and crew, but the millions of fans who would find hope, inspiration, and community in its vision of the future.

After an extended strike-induced hiatus, we're about to record the first episode of Trek Politics S2. Watch this space for premiere dates! @maryltrump.bsky.social

The American left alienates voters with its endless treatises filled with jargon no normal person could understand. Now here's my 2000 word piece on BlueSkyism, a term that I just made up.

"AI is a series of tubes."

A very nice lady at the grocery store today asked me if I was Hank Green “from Bluesky” 😳

So true!

The Canadian boycott is costing MAGA America billions.💸 We've gotta keep hitting the MAGA fascists where it hurts. Your resistance matters. Keep the boycott strong!💪 youtu.be/3kOKPKdClBU?...

Nigel Farage looks uncomfortable as Jamie Raskin uses his opening statement to absolutely demolish him

I was a victim of childhood sexual abuse. Seeing these women getting the coverage and support they are this morning...brings a smile to my face. I don't see broken women. I see strong and empowered women. They. Will. Prevail.

🚨🚨🚨”What we heard today is a cover up. And it is a cover up of epic proportions. A cover up involving the US government, the justice system, rich and powerful individuals… and yes, a cover up by republicans in this chamber.”

Epstein Survivors Press Conference Sept 3rd, 10:30 a.m. ET Tune in to support them.

The National Guardners

I'm still waiting for the relentless onslaught of media demands for a press conference and calls to resign.

New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!

MEIDAS CANADA. COMING SOON. 🇨🇦

One week ago, thousands of New Yorkers tried something new. They heard about it last minute. They didn’t know where it would take them or who they would meet. It was free, earnest, even educational. It was the #ZcavengerHunt and it was a thing of beauty.

This “explicit” is a weird editorial choice. The constitution gives the president no power over this at all. It’s not ambiguous.

“You cannot argue with stupid people. They will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience” -Mark Twain This is why the medical experts are leaving the CDC.

The Rev took attendance…

Art depicting “Sandwich Guy” now at the scene of the alleged misdemeanor.

The federal Bureau of Prisons has posted an estimated prison release date for former Rep. George Santos (R-NY): Sept. 28, 2031

I woke up with a CRAZY scary stupid thought: Maybe I should run for Congress against Steny Hoyer. Dude’s been in office since 1981. He’s in his late 80s. If I do it, I’ll run as a progressive independent caucusing with, but not controlled by Dems. And I will NOT take PAC money of any kind.

🔥 UPDATE: Forest fire that started from an intercepted Ukrainian drone 10km away from Putin's $1 billion palace on the Black Sea coast in Russia has now engulfed 39 hectares - 96 acres.

Starbucks CEO pay: $96 MILLION Starbucks worker pay: $15,000 Coca-Cola CEO pay: $28 MILLION Coca-Cola worker pay: $14,000 CEOs used to make like 20x the average worker. In 2024, the average CEO earned 632x more. The system is rigged.

🚨National Guard has transitioned from clean up to landscaping. This is infuriating. A gross abuse of power and misallocation of the purpose/function of these men and women.

I'd say let's help pack his bags but he might get appointed to a senior position in the White House administration. Wouldn't be fair to our American neighbours. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Angus: I’m saying we need to start building progressive media that people actually listen to. I’ll give you an example: MeidasTouch. Wherever I go in Canada, working-class people listen to MeidasTouch because they talk about what’s happening in a practical way. They give facts.

💥 Russia: Ukrainian drone was shot down just 10km from Putin's palace on the Black Sea coast. A forest fire ensued, currently engulfing 32 hectares (79 acres) and growing.

62 years ago, Dr. King led the March on Washington with giants like John Lewis, Mahalia Jackson, A. Philip Randolph, and so many others. If you’ve ever wondered what you’d be doing during the Civil Rights Movement, this is your test. (1/2)

The Department of Homeland Security is reportedly barring states and organizations that receive government funds from helping undocumented immigrants. This will make it harder for the most vulnerable people to get help in the aftermath of disasters. It was always about cruelty.

Newsom: Perhaps the president could deploy the National Guard in every corner of Mississippi. Murder rate is out of control there. And the governor may want to make that phone call.

Just admit it: You love your guns more than your children. The first step is acknowledging the problem.

Sen Patty Murray (D-WA): “If there are any adults left in the White House, it’s well past time they face reality… We cannot let RFK Jr. burn what’s left of the CDC and our other critical health agencies to the ground—he must be fired.”

I’m honored to receive the endorsement of two incredible public servants on Manhattan’s West Side: my colleague Assemblymember Tony Simone and former State Senator Thomas Duane.

Did you know the great final two verses of Pete Seeger’s classic “Where Have All the Flowers Gone?” antiwar song — the ones in which the soldiers went to graveyards, and the graveyards to flowers — were added by singer, songwriter, and folk music archivist Joe Hickerson, who died Aug. 17 at age 89?

My heart goes out to the victims of the shooting at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, and I'm praying for their classmates and families. Our kids deserve so much better. We must do better by them.

"Grandpa, were you one of the soldiers in Washington, DC, in 2025?" "You bet I was. I was part of the Great Mulching Brigade on the National Mall, and I led the charge in the Battle Against Five Improperly Discarded McDonald's Containers." "Gee, grandpa. That's amazing!"

So the sandwich guy ... beat the wrap

A powerful call out for the media to speak up against the fascist threat. In dealing with gangster fascism there aren't two sides to the story.

Constituent: I've heard President Trump say more than once that he's lowered drug prices by 1500%. I'm not sure how that works
