This morning, Speaker Mike Johnson went on Fox News and said something truly astonishing: that it was “unnecessary” for Congress to come back into session to ensure our troops get paid during the government shutdown.

Let that sink in.

Graham Platner for Senate @grahamformaine.bsky.social · 11h

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.

We can organize everywhere.
We can flip red seats.
We can flip entire chambers.
And we can govern like we give a damn.

Let’s show the rest of the country how to fight like Michigan.

Hi Sally. When Weiss published a supposed expose on the death of George Floyd, a veteran criminal justice reporter showed in deep detail that the piece was not just wrong but filled with falsehoods and misrepresentations. Weiss did not retract the piece. What do you think of that?

This is really smart. Amazed at the hysteria over the ascendance of a woman entrepreneur who clearly knows how to cover and sell news and who's not afraid to take on a mob. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

It's also a way to show Love for America!

Show up joyfully and peacefully (even if provoked).

Do you have family/friends who believe 47 is a friend to law enforcement?

If yes, send them this.

Team Trump’s posture toward law enforcement takes an antagonistic turn

Despite months of talk about supporting the police, the White House’s conflicts with state and local law enforcement are becoming more common.

Pritzker: "You just heard a tidal wave of lies from the VP. It's a bit shocking. And you heard over & over him just making things up. There's a reason why the judge here in federal court said that they admin lacks credibility and why even the Nobel committee chair said the admin lacks integrity."

"...average Americans are realizing that they too could be dragged out of their homes in the middle of the night by Trump’s ICE agents, or tear-gassed and arrested by Trump’s National Guard, or targeted by Trump’s prosecutors, or shot by Trump’s military."

Legal scholar David Noll noted that it’s “interesting that if you say the [C]onstitution creates a separation of powers systems in which there are no kings, MAGA think you hate [A]merica.”
