I got to chat with Aaron Rupar about his publication, his video clipping, and what it takes to document American politics in real time for the millions of people trying to keep up with the nonstop flood of news. One of the nicest guys in media. 👇🏼

Q&A: Aaron Rupar | The Human DVR of American Democracy
One of the most reposted political accounts online, yet somehow not the most hated. Holding Trump and MAGA to the light one clip at a time.

Dem donors are scared to be put on this admins enemy list. We WILL be outspent in the midterms and teams need to be figuring out how to be scrappy and use all the tools in our arsenal.

In addition to the partisan power struggle, gerrymandering has a secondary effect: destabilizing this year's elections.

New in The Fulcrum, I describe how the forces of redistricting and authoritarianism converge to create a new risk.

Just dropped $2,730 on health insurance for two people.
Great reminder that the problem isn’t “cost” — it’s priorities.
Illegal war? Fully funded.
Healthcare? Figure it out yourself.

My friend Kate is running for Congress…as a Republican 🤯 not becuase she’s changed her values, but because in a #gerrymandered district the primary IS the real election. Follow along for the chaos. www.katebarrcanwin.com

The DHS quietly implemented major changes to a federal immigration database originally created to check immigration status for those seeking public benefits. The database can now be used as a "voter verification" tool, making it easier to remove voters from the rolls.

A thread on petty resistance:
Being petty can be unproductive, can keep you frozen in a never-ending loop of doom, hate & pain. It can lead us to let go of our compassion towards others, to stop seeing the humanity of entire groups of people. .../1
