Someday we're going to laugh at all of this. Oh, wait... 😆😆😆

@Labor Day @Unions

Labor Day and Unions go hand in hand. As we all should. My latest: constantcommoner.substack.com/p/labor-day-...

“The degree to which Russia has milked Trump’s grievances to destroy US capabilities against it is one of the reasons I view the 2016 operation as the most successful intelligence operation of recent history.”

The truth is, we can't win against the Trump regime without the Democrats. Sabotage against them isn't the answer. constantcommoner.substack.com/p/democrats-...

Might be coming sooner...

I was in this mood today. I'm not sorry. #Tabloid #Gossip #NoHate constantcommoner.substack.com/p/in-defense...

POLITICO compiled a list of all the Washington Post staffers who have left in the past eight months. It’s at least a hundred names, many of them among the biggest names in journalism. This is the fastest erosion of a major outlet ever.

All Democrats need to do is promote programs that actually help people. The people will respond. They not only will be grateful, they will trust and expect it from Democrats. Democrats will be known as the party of the people. It's as simple as that.

The Authors Guild congratulates Dr. Carla Hayden on her appointment with the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. After her shocking and unjustified dismissal—a firing we condemned—we're delighted that she has found a new platform from which to continue her vital work. authorsguild.org/news/ag-cong...

Voters respond to fighters (e.g., AOC, Pritzker, Booker) who do not hold back in attacking MAGA extremists. Prefer fresher voices expressing righteous anger rather than old fogies acting as if opposition is futile. Favor politicians who pledge dramatic change, not more of the same

Last Thursday, at our Good Trouble rally, a woman using a walker was passing out mementoes, courtesy of NoMi, the Michigan Indivisible group. What could be more thoughtful than a Honey Bee Mix of perennials, to be planted next spring? It's good to be among the good.

@repsuhas.bsky.social thank you for fighting this Big Ugly Bill for you constituents and all Americans. This bill will impact Medicare eventually. That will drive costs up for health insurance premiums for everyone across the board. THIS BILL TAKES FROM THE POOR AND OLD IT GIVES TO THE RICH 😠

It's grim out there on our Independence Day. If you're part of the resistance, you know we're out there fighting. My essay today: constantcommoner.substack.com/p/on-the-ann...

I've just added a few more names to my ongoing list of helpers to end fascism and preserve democracy. If you haven't looked at the list, here it is. Please share. We need all the help we can get. If you have a name for me to add, let me know. Thanks. constantcommoner.substack.com/p/ongoing-li...

"We don’t have time to sort out personalities or to find our perfect place. We’re a crowd now, a formidable crowd, and our main goal is to grow our numbers. We need to become so vast there’s no question about who will be in charge. It won’t be them. It can’t be them."

For anyone who is wondering why Vance Boelter was only charged with Second Degree Murder today. 👇🏻

I was at a writers retreat at Interlochen Center for the Arts last week. I write about it here. I was nervous at first but what a week! writereverlasting.substack.com/p/the-writer...

Do they WANT trouble? You know they do.

Healthcare for seniors is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse. Food for hungry kids is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse. A $45 military parade for a draft dodging felon *is* waste, fraud, and abuse. Paying the National Guard to attack US citizens *is* waste, fraud, and abuse.

I was at our local rally yesterday and these are my thoughts as morning comes: constantcommoner.substack.com/p/june-14-20...

Almost there! Happy birthday you fucking racist, Nazi loser! #NoKings

OMG WaPo, read the room! 💙💙👊👊🇺🇸🇺🇸

Already happened tonight, I just watched it on CNN The focus was on how professional the police were and how standard it is to put a CNN journalist bearing press credentials in handcuffs to escort him to another area Took five minutes to collect my jaw from the floor

Elon Musk is singlehandedly responsible for millions of deaths across the world. He normalized hate speech. He is a union buster. Under no circumstance should he be allowed anywhere near the Democratic Party. He made his bed, he can lie in it.

I will never stoop to appealing to Trump voters. They love that sort of thing from us. They see it as weakness, which it is. Resist. Resist. Resist.

We're in danger of normalizing everything Trump does now. He's still crazy. He's still ruthless. He's still immune to any human feelings other than self-love and greed. And he's still president. We'll need all the reminders we can get.

Good for Gov. Walz, who refuses to throw marginalized children under the bus because it's a "difficult" topic. As a high school teacher and football coach, Coach Walz was the faculty sponsor for Mankato High School's Gay-Straught Alliance student club. Thank you Coach for this great example!

“Thousands of newly obtained documents show” that the founders of Clearview AI—which is backed by Peter Thiel—“always intended to target immigrants & the political left. Now their digital dragnet is in the hands of the Trump admin.” This is incredible reporting by @lukeobrien.bsky.social, 4/2025 1/

The Trump regime mantra: We're not in love with the law.

"We're not in love with the law." Ladies and gentlemen, the United States Government.

A reminder that our country is being held captive by a regime wholly made up of people who know nothing about the workings of government. Trump, who knows it least of all, wants it that way. Any sign that our government works for us would get in the way of destroying it. #NoFascists #Resist

No matter who you are or who you love, you are welcome here. Happy Pride Month, Minnesota!

This is classic SOP for every abuser. “You made me do it”. “It’s your own fault for making me explain people will die regardless of what’s in the Republican budget. You’re just lucky you didn’t make me explain the tooth fairy too.” America needs to walk away from its relationship with Republicans.

The entire Trump presidency is a five alarm fire. But in terms of corruption, nothing is as problematic as what these f*ckers are doing with crypto. Absolutely blatant, wanton corruption. WATCH:

My latest: I’ve wanted so much to believe in happy endings. They'll only happen if we fight. constantcommoner.substack.com/p/dont-give-...

Astounding. Where are the headlines?

Intolerable. It’s why we keep fighting.

Not sure if democracy remains on the docket? My law firm is litigating 53 voting and election cases in 22 states. When we fight, we win.
