Emerging from the darkness of this era will require us to acknowledge that the previous status quo, including many institutions that may have served us well in another era, have been failing for my entire lifetime.

BREAKING: A federal judge just temporarily blocked the Trump admin's plans to lay off thousands of federal workers during the government shutdown — siding with unions, which have argued that the dismissals were illegal.

In twelve days, New Yorkers will begin to cast their ballots and face a stark choice.

A choice between democracy and oligarchy. Between a city you can afford or more of the same. Between the hope of a brighter future or a broken past.

We will choose the future.

This isn’t a peace plan. It’s a ceasefire. Why is the media calling it a peace plan?

1. Last night, John Oliver destroyed Bari Weiss and specifically called out her inaccurate and targeted coverage of transgender people.

It's the latest of several shows Oliver has done in defense of trans people.

Weiss at CBS is a disaster for trans people.

It's so telling that the MAGA folks can't imagine politics, or activism, without money being involved in it. WOW, do We The People ever have a shocker for them.

Sean Duffy says the No Kings protests this Saturday are “really frustrating” because they are all paid Antifa people.

It’s gaining momentum. News agencies refusing to sign Kegseth’s rules. Airports refusing to play propaganda. Air traffic controllers using sick days. Don’t have to do everything. Do what you can with what you got.

It’s a start. Keep making phone calls to keep partisan politics out of airport safety PSAs.

I was a podcast guest! - talking about the journey from trauma to becoming a “healer’s healer.” Fun 30 mins chat. It truly is never too late to heal. reinventimpossible.com/episode-149-...

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.
