Instead of firing 300 journalists, the Washington Post should fire the executives who approved the endorsement of Bondi. In the meantime, if you want to support the pro-democracy outlet that understood the threat from the start, subscribe to Democracy Docket now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

It's hard to express what it meant to watch Maurice, Natalia, Celeste, and Rhea tell their stories—in their own voices—this morning. The segment revealed a brutal reality: homelessness at this scale isn't about personal failure. It's the result of policy choices and systems built to exploit people.
Some news: tomorrow at 9am, Ted Koppel + CBS Sunday Morning will air a two-part story on the devastating surge of full-time workers being pushed into homelessness. I'll be interviewed along with two families from There Is No Place for Us. It would mean a lot if you'd watch and help spread the word.

What can we do to stop him? 1st don’t worry about 2026/28 elections, yet. Focus on the Nov 2025 elections where there will be 52k races nationwide & turn out is key. 2nd, vote for pro democracy candidates that will shape the 2026/28 elections! Key elections are in CA, ME, NJ, PA & VA! #Elections2025
I’ll be at the Palm Springs, CA rally! Where will you be?
“The 3.5% rule is a concept in political science that states that when 3.5% of the population of a country protest nonviolently against a government, that government is likely to fall from power.” If you can get to a No Kings rally this Saturday, please do.
The corruption is blatant and there is no accountability. To the winners go the spoils. These people feel entitled to whatever they want.
Bessent’s friends have huge investments in Argentina. Elon Musk does too. Bessent is sending $40 billion of our money to Argentina with more to come. There is zero oversight. Congress not involved. One unelected man is sending a fortune to Argentina and nobody will stop him,

I’ll be marching in the Palm Springs protest and rally. Be there or lose democracy!
Authoritarianism is a cancer. And it's growing, metastasizing. In America. Now. YOU are the cure. Do your part and join us on Saturday. Do it for your country. For the Constitution. For your freedoms. While you still can. @ofthebraveusa.bsky.social

Kimmel wasn’t fired for his remarks on Kirk—he was fired for using his platform to expose and critique our government. Enough! We especially need large corporations, with the money and influence they have, to fight back. sign.moveon.org/petitions/ki...

Republicans dont want voting freedoms and protections. Infact, they'd be happy with 1% voter turnout. They feel the less people that vote, the better.
NEW: The Senate just reintroduced the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, which would restore and expand federal protections for our right to vote. As states continue to pass legislation that makes voting harder, it's time for our leaders to protect this essential right.
