This is the way. Phenomenal.
This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

Community action works.

It would be terrible if he became upset over some chant like "WE. 👏 WANT. 👏 THE EPSTEIN. 👏 FILES. 👏"

I earnestly hope and pray this does not happen. 🙏🏼
From @theathletic.com: President Trump is expected to attend the U.S. Open men’s final on Sunday, his first appearance at the tournament since 2015, according to a White House official. The New York crowd booed Trump during his last appearance.

Well, I had an interesting Sunday night, how 'bout you?
🧵
NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler had a local social worker physically dragged out of his town hall Sunday night.

Emily Feiner was singled out by private security, lifted out of her seat, as the crowd chanted “let her stay” and “shame, shame.”
She’s a constituent.
Not a threat.
Fascism again.

Not for nothing but I don't like MSNBC Prime Weekend. I'm watching it now 10:00 p.m. EST. They seem overly rehearsed. It's not real and awkward. Sorry, I'm out.

What's with all these changes? I'm not into these round table talks.

P.S. They made a mistake getting rid of Joy.

Just my two cents.

If you wanna know why Dems lose all the damned time, right here you go. This kind of bullshit right here. We’ve got an aspiring dictator tearing our country apart and these idiots are still too concerned about decorum and standards. Get these assholes out of office.

Hey media, and hell, dems too... Stop saying DOGE is cutting programs and firing people. Congress controls the "purse" Congress controls funding. Congress is run by Republicans. So Republicans are cutting funding and firing everyone. Give them the credit they deserve.

Shadow Surgeon General @vinguptamd.bsky.social giving you the advice you need
We spent nearly 8 minutes this morning trying to set the record straight on a number of health matters.

I’d expect the Surgeon General or NIH Director to do this, but since they’re not, here it is in 4 clips.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.

It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.

They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.

I’m happy to invest and/or help

What can I say? From my substack this am:
"And it will be lampooned within hours. I’m looking forward to SNL’s Mikey Day playing Zelensky, growing increasingly incredulous at Trump’s nasty patter & little by little letting his bafflement and contempt show."

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.
