Holy shit. This is Angelo Elia, a legislative correspondent for Congressman Dave Taylor. According to @rooster.info, during a Zoom meeting today, he had an American nazi flag displayed in the background.

@janetmillsforme.bsky.social This is ridiculous. 4 fundraising texts in the last 48 hours. I've replied STOP to all of them. Tell your vendors to follow the law and honor opt-outs.

white reactionaries disenfranchising black voters to secure political power? that’s a jim crow. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/15/u...

Take it from me: You do NOT negotiate with abusers. So if Trump wants to illegally take New Jersey’s funding, we have to fight back with everything we’ve got. My idea? Eminent domain Trump’s golf course for affordable housing. My debut in @nydailynews: www.nydailynews.com/2025/10/04/t...

the following reps drew new challengers this week, the first of the cycle for all but Norton: Eleanor Holmes Norton, DC-AL Kweisi Mfume, MD-07 Jared Golden, ME-02 Wesley Bell, MO-01 Maggie Goodlander, NH-02 Ritchie Torres, NY-15

20 years ago, Hurricane Katrina left families stranded in water and tore people from their homes. The pain was real, but so was the fight to come back. youtu.be/4swp0AhrQlA?...

I have never seen so many public servants protest the mismanagement of a government. Trumpists will point to this as proof of the deep state, but the reality is that these are professionals who are desperately trying to get the public to understand how bad things are.

the actual communication problem democrats have is this: their most prominent national figures filter everything through focus grouped lines and are incapable of plain speech

Great insights from @whstancil.bsky.social is his conversation with @gregsargent.bsky.social. newrepublic.com/article/1995...

@pegueroformiami.bsky.social you’ve texted me twice this week. I’ve never heard of you (before I just googled you) and you didn’t include your last name in your texts. If I’ve never heard from you before, you need you introduce yourself!

1. The extra marginal tax rate will affect millionaires' daily lives almost not at all, which is why in reality none of them would leave the state. 2. When you have this much money, your accountant/financial folks are already making you as tax efficient as possible. www.wbur.org/news/2025/04...

Big deal—after correcting, it turns out that moderate candidates do not perform better than extreme candidates in general elections. Kudos to Andy, Dan, and Adam for updating a key question in political science

If Lander’s voters rank Zohran the way Lander explicitly campaigned for them too, it’s Cuomover

FYI, we likely won't find out the results of the NYC mayoral election for another week. Tonight we're only expecting to get the results from the *first round* of ranked-choice voting.

Democrat Billie Butler has won a special election for the NH House by a 55-45 margin, very close to Harris' 55-44 margin in 2024. Butler, a trans woman, was the target of vicious anti-trans attacks by Republicans. Background on the race: www.seacoastonline.com/story/news/p...

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife. While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE. This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

"A reporter from @thecity.nyc had overheard one agent say to another minutes before Lander’s arrest, 'Do you want to arrest the Comptroller?'"

NYC Comptroller and mayoral candiate Brad Lander was detained by federal agents inside 26 Federal Plaza moments ago, as he tried to escort a man from a court hearing. www.thecity.nyc/2025/06/17/b...

Here's a longer video of Brad Lander's detention just now inside 26 Federal Plaza as he tried to walk a man out of immigration court, by masked federal agents.

You can’t see me bc I’m holding a flag but guys I live in a 2k person extremely rural town in one of the reddest counties of WI. So many people showed up there was a line all the way to the highway. I often feel a bit afraid due to my identity in this area but #nokings brought out so many

Do you know how badly you have to screw up as a Republican to get this kind of turnout in IDAHO? #NOKINGS

Philadelphia right now 🤯🇺🇸 #nokings

The rain isn’t stopping the massive #NoKings march in downtown #StamfordCT!

Elect a 🤡 ➡️ Get a circus #NoKings #StamfordCT

Over 1,000 people in #Stamford for #NoKings. One of *30* protests today in the state of Connecticut alone.

Wow! Wow! Wow! Here at the #NoKings rally in Nanuet, NY with @indivisrockland.bsky.social. Turn-out is INSANE and the energy is off the charts. THOUSANDS of people, with more streaming in every minute (video below is only a *fraction* of who is here). An inspiring display of democracy!

No Faux King Way! #nokings #stamfordct

Enormous crowd at the #NoKings protest in #StamfordCT! 🇺🇸

Sunday night’s town hall in Somers, New York was yet another horrifying example of the brutal suppression of free speech in America under Trump. Constituent Emily Feiner courageously stood up and quite courteously asked Republican Rep. Mike Lawler a simple question about upholding the…

#Andor makes me want to rip my heart out but also run through a brick wall but also punch a fascist but also tell everyone in my life how much I love them

BREAKING: Police just surrounded Rev. William Barber, prominent activist and pastor, as he and others prayed in the U.S. Capitol Rontunda. Police then expelled everyone (including press!) from the Rotunda to (presumably) arrest them. I've covered protests here a lot. Never seen anything like it.

So much of what I don’t like about Democratic fundraising packed into one text from Raja Krishnamoorthi. First off, he DIDN’T text me those previous days, so why say you did? Second, he’s in a super safe House seat in IL, so donating will not advance the cause of taking back the House majority

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Never, ever let anyone tell you Americans only care about their economic self interest and therefore we must frame everything through that lens alone. That merely aids and abets fascism. People care about the things they hear repeated over and again.

Seems like this would be a big deal for the Sincere Enemies of Anti-Semitism

"If liberal funders are going to have any more convenings, they need to do some soul searching and examine why—when everything is burning down—they are still hesitant to fund the strategies the right-wing has used to such breathtaking and horrifying success."

2025 truly is the year of things I shouldn't have to say out loud but apparently do.

Don't tell me Mahmoud Khalil standing with Jewish people for justice for Palestine is antisemitic when you pardoned the Nazi terrorist wearing a "Camp Auschwitz" shirt as he violently stormed the Capitol to hang Mike Pence & kill Nancy Pelosi. Shame on the MAGA regime & every silent politician.

‘Kill these cuts before they kill us’: Federally funded researchers warn DOGE cuts will be fatal I was on the ground Tues. speaking w/ union members protesting the Trump administration’s cuts to life-saving research, healthcare, & education programs @therealnews.com therealnews.com/kill-these-c...

Associated Press: "Nearly 40% of contracts canceled by Musk's DOGE are expected to produce no savings"

As the author of a history of concentration camps, I would like to emphasize that this is a very bad idea, and we should definitely not do it.

Why on EARTH is Jack Reed, Senator from the blue state of Rhode Island, voting to confirm Trump's picks to run the Pentagon? Even Mitch McConnell voted No. There's still no accountability for Signalgate. Nothing should be moving. He needs to join Fight Club or lose his primary. #risen
