It makes me angry for all the laid-off and struggling journalists, particularly political writers, who would be doing a much better job in these high-profile positions. It just makes the whole elite media industry feel like a joke.

Again, can you imagine if a writer of color, a Black reporter specifically, did what Olivia Nuzzi did, what would happen to her career?
Would she be rehabilitated in less than a year? Hired by Vanity Fair? Given a book deal? A NYT puff piece?
It's a big club and we ain't in it.

We have Trump because we fought Bush instead of the white supremacist systems that created Bush, just like with Reagan before him and Nixon before *him.*
Want to prevent another Trump? Dismantle the systems that created him. They go back to the founding of this country.

Also, Gayle Smith, the special assistant to Obama and senior director for development and democracy at the National Security Council, was also in the Epstein little black book and flight logs.
The Epstein files themselves are just a small piece of the puzzle. Their release won’t be the whole story.

The prices we get under the ACA are based on Americans as one large group. We won’t get lower prices bargaining individually or by state. And how do people in a country our size bargain as a group? Government! That’s what government is for!

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.
Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

Her husband told her that detainees at Broadview had to get up at 5am to get in line for one bathroom. He often peed himself. One time he had to wait until 2pm to use the bathroom. You could only use the bathroom once a day. He said the agents would beat you if you used the bathroom on yourself.

Taxing commercial flight to reflect its true environmental costs presents genuine policy & economic tradeoffs, but taxing private air travel does not, and the latter should be taxed at ludicrously punitive rates to address the deficit created by the former.
Impact of flights on global warming severely underestimated by many carbon calculators & offset schemes that don’t properly account for taxiing, sub-optimal routing or non-CO2 climate effects which are larger component:

ICYMI: I've proposed a rule change that would protect the ability of undocumented and disabled people to appear in court remotely, increasing access to justice and reducing the incidence of vulnerable people losing cases simply because they can't show up in the courthouse.
Hello Friends! I need your help.
I've submitted a proposal to the Illinois Supreme Court, docketed as Proposal 25-05, to guarantee that undocumented immigrants, disabled people, and legal aid and pro bono attorneys can appear in court remotely. My proposed language is the underlined text below!
