“The truth always lies somewhere in the middle” has to be one of my least favorite phrases. Sometimes, one side is actually truthful and one side is actually malicious and lying!

Surviving Trump is practically as traumatic an experience as serving in the military, which rewards you with citizenship. It should too.

I argued that communities targeted by ICE should be granted citizenship immediately. This is both a matter of justice and an imperative if we're going to crush fascism.

If there's one empirical insight I'd want everyone to understand about American politics, it's this:
America's problems are solved problems. Just not here.
What would change if the US simply matched the average of 31 peer democracies? Not Denmark or Norway. Just the middle of the pack. 🧵

Hide their replies and block them. I’ve had it with everlasting doomers.
Guys, with understanding that everyone is angry right now, I am honestly going to start blocking people who say things like, "Who cares? The law doesn't matter anymore," or "They can do whatever they want, they can't be stopped" etc. I mean, if you really feel that way, you're a part of the problem.
