Nine months ago I put most of my hope in major institutions continuing to hold fascism in check, but had little expectation that regular people with little to no power would step up and put themselves at risk.

I had it exactly backward.
signs like these are up all over Chicago cafes and storefronts (here, cafes in Brighton Park and Back of the Yards) warning ICE not to enter without a judicial warrant

Blue state governments should start hosting lists of identified ICE agents on their own websites if Facebook and the like are going to take them down

If a democratic Speaker had refused to call the House into session for OVER A MONTH there would be wall to wall coverage on all networks.

What the fuck is wrong with our media

Love him or hate him, he understands the way the game is played now and he's playing it better than anyone else.

At what point when you’re paying troops with your own private money do they not just become mercenaries

It’s more than just bad priorities. It’s about lack of basic decency.

They don’t even pretend to care. This is the only story. You can’t open the government if the House refuses to show up.

Doesn't seem to have occurred to everyone yet that the US Congress may never reconvene.

I don’t really think the framers intended for a president to have the power to slap a tariff on products from a particular country because he didn’t like a TV commercial they ran about him, but I suppose it is presently up to the Supreme Ct to decide how far the Mad King can go.

SNAP is not the reason your taxes are high.

SNAP recipients don’t need to β€œjust go get a job”.

Most of them work. The rest are disabled, elderly, children or caregivers.

People need & deserve assistance

Your taxes fund wars and tax cuts for the ultra rich

Be mad about that

Voting locations are open today in every county. If you haven't already voted, do it today and take a friend with you. Your light bill, your taxes, your future depends on it. Let's go!

We were just notified that cell-site simulators were used during the No Kings protests in several cities. Fortunately, we planned for this. Portland, Houston, Philadelphia, and Chicago were among the targeted locations. If you’re attending protests, please remember to follow protocol.

I could not be prouder that my law firm is currently litigating 60 voting, election and redistricting cases in 30 states. Even as large law firms bow down, we continue to fight for democracy every single day.

Wait until he hears that Reagan didn't trust the Russians.

Congress basically doesn’t exist at this point
When the president is destroying national landmarks, murdering fishermen, raising prices because he's angry over a Reagan video, and kidnapping parents in front of their crying children is probably not an ideal time to have a lazy, completely incompetent legislative branch perpetually on vacation.
