It’s far from the most important thing, morally right now, or in terms of the human stakes, but the ballroom thing is really breaking my brain.

Why is Apple, Microsoft, Lockheed Martin, Blackstone, Google, OpenAI, Amazon and others financing the destruction of the WH and desecration of the grounds, something that is infuriating to huge chunk of the American population? Do you hate your customers that much?

Chris Murphy: "There's a lot of history that has taken place in the East Wing & it was just destroyed without any conversation in the public, without any consent of Congress. It's absolutely illegal. That visual is powerful b/c you're watching destruction of the rule of law as those walls come down"

If the National Guard is really in D.C. to protect federal
property, they should probably have been at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. two days ago

Voters should pick their representatives, not the other way around. Glad to get the chance to talk to some of the volunteers and organizers doing the hard work to make sure Prop 50 passes. This vote will have critical implications, not just for California, but for our entire country.

Trump is rigging maps to build a Congress that serves only him, not the people. @AOC knows the power to stop him is in California’s hands—Prop 50 is how we fight back and win. #YesOnProp50

While I am happy that more people are finding their last straw broken by the republican admin, I don't think they need fundraising anymore. They're now funded through Americans paying higher costs for goods to cover tarrifs. Tarrif $ goes to the govn & Congress is an open check book to #47.

Data washing – whereby vested interests engage consultants to produce allegedly independent technical analysis – is being used as the basis for some of the government's most contentious environmental policies. satpa.pe/3OBW37W

How the fossil fuel lobby captured a landmark Labor policy

The federal government’s Future Gas Strategy, which backs extending production through to 2050 and beyond, is based on contested EY research commissioned by Australian Energy Producers.

Raskin with Jeffries: "It's an alarming situation where now we have many of these January 6 defendants who have been picked up on other defenses. The Department of Justice is not zealously prosecuting them for other crimes they have committed ... it's a very dangerous situation."

America's Sleeping Giant roared when police attacked civil rights marchers.

And after tens of thousands of young Americans were killed in Vietnam.

And when Nixon tried to cover up Watergate.

Today it roars once more — at the tyrant in the Oval Office.

Storm Warnings | Mark Lilla

The MAGA movement is not fed by conservative ideas but by a nihilistic, apocalyptic determination to stage a counterrevolution against the Sixties, against liberalism, against even democracy itself.

Moskowitz: We need $30 billion to extend, obviously, these healthcare subsidies, which allow Americans—Americans, not illegal—Americans, citizens, to afford healthcare.

And the president’s like, “We don’t have $30 billion, but I am going to send $40 billion to my dear friend in Argentina.”
