We don’t talk about Russ Vought enough and he’s the most powerful villain in Washington, D.C.

The Trump White House will sabotage mail-in voting, blocking before and disputing after, disenfranchising Americans however they can. The Roberts Court will make up some BS to allow it. It’s wrong, it isn’t fair, it shouldn’t be. But it is. And it’s beatable. Big numbers in person and they lose.

As of this week, hundreds of thousands of Haitians lost their legal status. Most have lost work permits as well. That's left many people unable to support themselves. Here is a verified link to a fundraiser supporting Haitians in Springfield. Please drop links to other fundraisers in the replies.

“And when a judge forced his name off a murdered president’s memorial, he left the building draped in white tarps, obscuring Kennedy’s name so that nobody can see it either, because if the public can’t see Donald Trump’s name, then by God they won’t see anyone’s…” open.substack.com/pub/jojofrom...

There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man." A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

This will not end w/ voting rights. The fundamental premises of these SCOTUS opinions are: 1) Anti-discrimination is actually unconstitutional discrimination; 2) Intentional discrimination isn't actionable if any alternative rationale is presented. It's the beginning of the end of civil rights law.

This heinous ruling confirms a worst-case-scenario reading of Callais as an all-purpose shield for racist lawmakers who want to gerrymander Black communities into electoral oblivion. And it’s outrageously partisan—a totally unprincipled gift to the GOP. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

📌The Jim Crow South has returned, and I just don’t think most people outside of the Black community understand how maddening and truly terrifying this is. We all must rally to their defense RIGHT NOW, and stand with this nation’s most dependable patriots. My God, we owe them at least that …

Today, President Barack Obama and I read to a group of toddlers at Learning Through Play Pre-K Center in the South Bronx.  In between singing wheels on the bus, we discussed our administration’s vision for this City — one where New York’s Cutest have the strongest start possible.

If there are any Democrats who are thinking of running for the presidency on 2028 on anything less than a clear agenda of widespread prosecution for this administration's corruption and fundamental structural changes to ensure it can't happen again, they should just stop right there.

Walz: "The federal government needs to pay for what they broke here. There's going to be accountability on things that happened, but one of them is the incredible and immense cost borne by the people of this state. The federal government needs to be responsible."

Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here. Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

Trump's racist video depicting the Obamas as apes wasn't a mistake—it's part of a pattern. From DHS posting neo-Nazi recruitment material to erasing slavery exhibits, white nationalism has become official government policy. My latest in @theunpopulist.net

Today is the 5th anniversary of the release of the infamous #Lawyercat video, which I posted roughly thirty minutes after the start of the second impeachment trial. Who would have thought it would have such a lasting impact on the world! Happy Lawyercat Day for all who celebrate!

Happy #Lawyercat Anniversary for all who celebrate! It's been four years since the kitten appeared in my Zoom courtroom, and I released the 48 second video that made the whole world laugh. Here is the full video showing the big reveal at the end (in two parts because Blue sky). Enjoy!

None of them regret their vote. NONE OF THEM REGRET THEIR VOTE. NONE. OF. THEM. REGRET. THEIR. VOTE. (and one says he hopes Trump doesn't trigger a constitutional crisis...but he DOES NOT REGRET HIS VOTE).
