It was wonderful to spend Rosh Hashanah last week with Missy and Elaine, two lifelong Michiganders who welcomed me into their home and taught me about the sweet and joyous meaning of Rosh Hashanah.

I proudly endorse this message from my grandparents ❤️

I want to propose a toast to Sergey Brin, who's unintentionally making the case for a billionaire tax better than anyone else could.

The new Epstein files production features numerous allegations made against Donald Trump and others.

Billie Eilish during her #GRAMMYs speech for Song of the Year: “As grateful as I feel, I don’t need to say anything except that, no one is illegal on stolen land. It’s really hard to know what to say and what to do right now, I feel hopeful in this room and we need to keep protesting… fuck ICE.”

I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired. If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution.

Today, Speaker Emeritus Nancy Pelosi announced that she will not seek reelection and is retiring at the end of her term. From her time working with Harvey Milk in San Francisco to her tenure as the first female Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi is the definition of a champion for equality.

Um, do federal prosecutors *really* want to take the position that it's not okay to receive something of value from … Qatar? I can think of 747 reasons why they shouldn't. 🤔

There had better be trials. And not just for the low-level thugs carrying out these orders, but for everyone up the chain of command. If we get past this, the solution isn’t to pretend it never happened and invite Stephen Miller to Harvard’s Institute of Politics. It’s trials w real punishments.

I heard some old friends at Pod Save America were in town, so I decided to stop by. As we saw this week, we can change this country for the better. But it’s going to take all of us getting organized and having honest conversations about the best way forward.

Democratic Rep. Yassamin Ansari was outside Mike Johnson's office today holding up a sign that read: "Mike Johnson is starving families and gutting health care to cover up the Epstein files. CHANGE MY MIND."

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 94th day out of the last 106. 12 days of work in 106 days. With full pay and benefits. The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown. It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

I am digging the creative dunking by the Dems

I had a run in with ICE snatching a man out of his car while walking my children to school this morning in NW DC I asked a neighbor to continue walking my kids to school and I turned back to document and confront the ICE agents. I am in contact with @dcmigrantmutualaid.org with the full video.

Adelita Grijalva did everything right - organized, campaigned, canvassed. @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social worked hard and it paid off, becoming the first Latina to represent Arizona in Congress. *Over a month ago.* What Mike Johnson is doing to her is abhorrent. #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

The regime’s attacks on dissent are escalating. Trump’s goal is to silence opposition through fear, but the American people will never submit to his corrupt rule. The best way to protect our rights is by continuing to exercise them.

Karoline Leavitt officially announced the "Launch of a large-scale investigation to find the people behind 'No Kings.'" I've saved her some time.

They said Red America would stay silent. Then it roared. Millions rose in peaceful rebellion from small towns and city streets to defend democracy and reclaim their power. Read the story of a nation awake and unafraid. #NoKings 👉 open.substack.com/pub/demcastu...

There are more of us than there are of them. Thank you for a truly historic day of peaceful protests across America. #NoKings

I remember commissioning this story from my friend @baxterholmes.bsky.social 11 whole years ago. It is not a complex decision when you know any history at all. And now Trump is trying basically criminalize being against this racism. www.esquire.com/news-politic...

Oh so *now* they care about due process.

As per usual, Cuomo won't take no for an answer. Every elected Dem in New York needs to come out ASAP to reject this. You rally around the primary winner. Full stop. End of story. If Dems can't agree on that, the Party is a sham. Why would any primary loser behave differently in the future?

Some reporting out from my time at an ICE detention center this weekend, and lots of action items as this secret police force balloons in size. open.substack.com/pub/ezralevi...
