This is a brilliant piece.

Bad Bunny didn’t just ask for a seat at the table. He flipped it over and brought in a bigger one. A new America is emerging with a more expansive view of patriotism, love of country and Americanness. It’s coming! It’s here! Whether you like it or not.

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

The President has no power to nationalize elections under the Constitution. Democrats will fight like hell to make sure that does not change.

I am not cosigning community terror.

Democrats are demanding ICE and Border Patrol conduct themselves in accordance with real police officers. Real police officers don’t wear masks – they wear body cameras. They also cooperate with investigations and use judicial warrants. These are normal, commonsense standards.

@mikemadrid.bsky.social was good on this today open.substack.com/pub/greattra...

Trump promised he would cut prices. Instead, he's killing people.

"Because here’s what last night proved: when Democrats run candidates with authentic working-class credentials, when they focus on kitchen-table issues instead of consultant-driven messaging, when they organize in communities that have been written off as unwinnable, they can compete anywhere."

“Latino voters—the demographic both parties have been both ignoring and claiming to be fighting over—just sent a message that should reshape the entire 2026 landscape in Texas.” Read Mike’s piece about Texas.

Read every word of this at least three times. And then get to work.

When empires decline. It’s rare in human history that we can so readily identify one man’s name with the decline of empire but at the current pace of American devolution, it’s clear that name will be etched in eternity and most likely in faux gold letters: Trump. open.substack.com/pub/greattra...

The end days of Trump. They're starting to turn on him "The elite of Rome knew the madness wouldn’t last forever. While public spectacle & lavish pageantry masked an empty treasury, fear & obedience replaced any real loyalty. Senators applauded in public while whispering threats in private"

Amazing essay - a must read.

this is such a powerful historical analysis of where we are and what could come next. maximally enraging and frightening.

The Wall Street Journal poll dropping right now showing Americans blaming Trump for the bad economy on top of this morning’s historically bad CNN poll are setting a narrative that’s gonna be hard for him to climb out of before the midterms.

Greenland should rename itself Epstein Island and Trump will do everything he can to avoid them.

Great analysis, Mike ..."The ICE collapse reveals something critical about current political realignment: traditional left-right immigration positions are being superseded by broader skepticism of concentrated federal power."

This is an important and excellent read for those angered by Trump’s enshittification of our nation’s sacred spaces.

The desecration of the Rose Garden offends more than standards of beauty, it’s a violation of the sacred. Trump has turned it into The Olive Garden - a fake sense of experience when it’s nothing more than empty calories and free breadsticks. open.substack.com/pub/greattra...

After reading @mikemadrid.bsky.social’s newsletter yesterday, my goal for this year is to get *one other* person to attend a protest this year. We need to hit that 3.5% number. That means *doubling* the turnout for last October’s #NoKings protest, and repeating that again and again.

"“there’s what’s called the 3.5% Rule, which is that if you look at authoritarian regimes of various kinds all over the world over the last century, once you have 3.5% of a pop protesting nonviolently against a dictator or an authoritarian, that is essentially an unstoppable force,” she explained"
