If you support what’s happening with ice and the current president, I am so sorry. I’m sorry your schools, churches and communities failed you so badly. I’m sorry your experience in America made you believe that people who are different from you are a threat.

Half the battle with this guy is just reiterating government can and already does good things that are so ubiquitous they’ve become invisible. He’s able to remind you in a way that you understand that good government can exist outside of a 24/7 vengeance operation, and in NYC already does.
Stay warm, stay safe New York.

Since Congress passed a law requiring Trump to release the Epstein Files, Trump has:

- Tried to start a war with NATO over Greenland

- Threatened to use the military to suppress free speech in Minnesota

- Illegally withheld 99% of the files and heavily redacted the ones that were released

If you live in the Cities, an easy way to help immigrant families in hiding is: laundry! Laundromats are ICE magnets, so people without washers need help.

The People’s Laundry will drop off laundry to your door to wash and dry and pick up a few days later:

This isn't just a casual observation. Fascism scholars have long made this point. It's why calling them "weird" was a more effective strategy than talking about the prices of eggs. Fascism is an aesthetic political movement - you need to make people feel embarassed and horrified by it.
one of the most effective weapons we have against fascism is mockery, especially when its really funny
It occurs to me all the yelling at ICE in MPLS isn't merely funny. Getting made fun of like this is awful for morale. ICE is losing field officers faster than it can wave them through training, and a big part of it is how little of this these little weasels can take.

On my way to the Supreme Court where I'll be proud to support 15-year-old Becky Pepper-Jackson, West Virginia's only transgender athlete, as she opposes the state's effort to ban her from playing as herself.

Win or lose, Becky and her family are heroes for standing up for what's right

Cool how instead of paying for health insurance the government is paying incel losers to terrorize its own people.

I learned about the Iran protests earlier than most of the people I know because I’m friends with a Persian man I met 18 years ago while I was in Istanbul. The more you travel the broader your perspective. The states with the highest percent of passport holders are the most progressive.

I don’t like that we call people like Charlie Kirk “activists”. His life was was dedicated to trying to make demonstrably worse for millions of Americans. His is a legacy of hate.

Woke up at 3am and can’t get back to sleep and where does my brain go?

There are no “good” billionaires, but if Taylor Swift wanted to try, she could start a Universal Basic Income Program and call it “Oops Look What You Made Me Do.” And maybe wipe out some medical debt, too.

Vote or not, it doesn't matter for this. There is an assumption that there will be a stable period with a democrat that we can go back to normal and we can't. They refuse to issue any kind of statement for the future. There are positive outliers we can support, so there ARE some, but nationally...

No I don't want "humane" deportations, for the same reason I don't want "friendly" cops in schools or "understanding" genital inspectors at sporting events.

The problem is the fascism, not that the fascism is rude.

The extremely simple fact is that Jeff Epstein was the most notorious child sex trafficker in history, and the President of the US was his close personal friend for decades

Acting like this is complicated is absurd. The man knew what Epstein did, didn't care, and participated

25 years ago, I was 17 years old. I got into an accident, rolling my parents 1991 Toyota 4Runner with my best friend, no substances involved, just inexperienced driving. A few days later, I went on a trip with another friend’s family to Lake Powell, on a houseboat for a week.
