I'm going to try to do this cleanly. Today's right wing governments are networked to each other. Those networks are well-documented. You can read about them in books. Following the elections in one node of that network is good practice for understanding the U.S. node.
I just think Matt's wrong about this. We're at a point in our technological development where a ton of problems spill over national borders--if Flavio Bolsonaro burns down the Amazon, that will flood houses in Miami.
Fascists around the world are building cross-country partnerships. Any competent pro-democracy effort at home would do well to partner with and learn from pro-democracy movements abroad. So congrats and appreciation to the democratic movement leaders in Hungary, Serbia, and Brazil!!!
Yes well it does require things like “empathy” and possessing a basic understanding that all of our lives are interconnected

I really like the point made here: Dems should be making a public case right now for novel tactics like defunding Trump's corrupt prosecutions, to make them more intelligible later:
Democrats laying the groundwork for real opposition, with Congress asserting budget authority to stand against Trump abuses and rights violations. Will have to overcome cries that not passing Trump's budget is irresponsible. But it's the opposite. And starting now makes that hurdle easier to clear.
The orientation I want congress to have: productive conflict is GOOD. Dems have a real credibility gap. They need to communicate clearly to the public what they are for. Hold the regime accountable and force Trumpists to oppose popular stuff. Don't muddy the message with watered down bipartisan BS.

I can confirm. Indivisible Action spends about a dime of every dollar raised on fundraising costs, which is very efficient. They are a good example of what a genuine grassroots operation looks like.
We’ve seen a lot of recent reporting on shady fundraising tactics that get Democratic consultants rich, but don’t do much to help Democratic campaigns. So let us be as clear as humanly possible: Every dollar you donate today will be spent on winning the midterms and protecting the results.
Make sure you're sharing, following, and signed up to defend our free and fair elections with No Kings. Take the pledge at bit.ly/longlivethevote.
At a time when fascist tech zillionaires are using their obscene wealth to fund the entire Republican Party, it's absurd and self-defeating for any Democratic politician to oppose this. This isn't rocket science. They're the bad guys! The people want you to fight them!
Just to be clear... Prop 40 is a ONE-TIME retroactive tax. It applies ONLY to billionaires and would tax just 5% of their wealth — which grew 30% in 2025. California's billionaires would still be worth $2T+ AFTER the tax. The revenue will fund healthcare for millions of Californians. Vote YES.
"You're tweeting about the streamer you didn't want to talk about more than the Republican you say you want to defeat." Establishment elites trying to maintain plausible deniability while undermining the Dems in the general election will fail on both fronts. We will win, and we will remember.

This is unacceptable. We can't let billionaires and tech companies like Mark Zuckerberg and Meta censor our movement and meddle in our democracy. No corporation should have this level of power over free speech in this country.
🚨 EXCLUSIVE: No Kings organizer Ezra Levin SOUNDS ALARM after Meta suspended the movement’s Instagram during nationwide protests. LEVIN: “We might be seeing something similar from Meta in our country right now.” “We're not gonna stop organizing against this regime.”

that's real weird because there were Maine Indivisible groups in your office every single day during the Kavanaugh confirmation repeatedly telling you he was going to do exactly that
Susan Collins on Kavanaugh: "I'm very disappointed in his his vote to overturn Roe v. Wade. There was no way for me to anticipate that."
The fish rots from the head. The No Kings coalition has not received a response from Zuckerberg yet for meta interfering in No Kings day on Saturday. This is a transparent ploy to cozy up to the new congress as Trump loses power. It will not stop accountability for what meta has done.

after uproar over its silence it is forced to come out with a (albeit mealy mouthed) statement: "Regardless of intent, its use can reinforce harmful tropes about Jews and normalize language that has long been used to target the Jewish community."... REALLY??? That's it?
Why has the ADL said nothing about Trump's invocation of the grossly antisemitic "Shylock" trope? Have they entirely given up any pretense of caring about rightwing Jew hatred?
Ezra Levin ❌👑 reposted
if Zohran Mamdani used the word "Shylock" the ADL would have called in a nuclear strike on New York City by now
The ADL finally chimes in… with one very short post: "The term 'Shylock' is rooted in a longstanding antisemitic stereotype. Regardless of intent, its use can reinforce harmful tropes about Jews and normalize language that has long been used to target the Jewish community."

Paul LePage claims he never really "moved" to Florida, but he obtained a Florida driver's license and registered to vote in Florida after leaving office in January 2019.
Working families in Maine are heading into winter and staring at the highest heating oil bills they've ever seen. Paul LePage openly said that when it gets too cold, he goes to Florida. I'll never abandon Mainers, and I'll fight to end the war in Iran and bring down your heating prices.

Thanks so much to @maddow.bsky.social for having me on to talk EARLY VOTE, No Kings, and our quest to get answers from Meta 👇
“This is not a situation in which anyone is getting the benefit of the doubt. We need a full and transparent explanation and we need it to be public.” @leahgreenberg.bsky.social and @maddow.bsky.social discuss Meta’s apology for censoring No Kings and the @nkcoalition.bsky.social’s letter to Meta.
In a delightful change of roles, I am watching MSNOW waiting for @leahgreenberg.bsky.social to talk to @maddow.bsky.social about No Kings and what's next. Tune in!

Glad to see President Obama and so many Democrats have spoken out against the regime’s sham “investigation” of Rep. Ilhan Omar. Makes the silence from the current Senate Democratic leader @schumer.senate.gov even more unacceptable.
Barack Obama issued a rare public statement Sunday criticizing the Trump administration’s investigation of Rep. Ilhan Omar. Read more from Erum Salam.

A one-year-old Black BABY was murdered and the state of Mississippi is claiming the white officer who did it was "justified". An absolutely horrifying outrage and injustice.
JUST IN: The police shooting that killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley as he sat in his mother’s lap in a Walmart parking lot in Senatobia, Miss., in June “was justified,” Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s office said on Monday. Her office will not charge the white officer who shot the child.

A good summary here of how much Meta is in the tank for Trump. And a reminder that the authoritarian threat comes not just from within the Trump administration but from its oligarchic allies. Oligarchic power is now a clear and present threat to our democracy. open.substack.com/pub/populari...
We’ve built historic marches, we’ve protested on a previously unseen scale — and now we’re taking that power to the polls.

If Meta suspended the account at the request of or under pressure from the admin, that would be “jawboning” — and a 1A violation. This was exactly what the MAGA states argued wrt the Hunter Biden story and COVID minsinfo. The purpose of the investigation would be to find out if that happened
People demanding Zuck be hauled before Congress to explain why No Kings insta was suspended... how would you feel if MAGA GOP hauled MSNow execs to explain why they covered Trump the way they do? Both are editorial choices protected by the First Amendment. If this annoys you...
