I don’t know what Bill Clinton did, but if he has anything to say about Epstein that could impact Trump, I pray that Bill Clinton can put the best interest of his country ahead of his own reputation.

If I were Democratic leaders in Congress, I’d set up a table in front of the White House and just sit there all day β€” with a sign above that says β€œReady To Negotiate” …. And just constantly create social media posts/videos while Trump & GOP don’t show and continue to DO NOTHING

Congratulations to my friend Randi Weingarten on the launch of Why Fascists Fear Teachers.

From banning books to controlling curriculum, authoritarians go after public education because it's a cornerstone of democracy. Randi's book is a critical read for this moment. sites.prh.com/whyfascistsf...

So that gives YOU permission to be inhuman and offensive? Absolutely nothing justifies violence. Period. Full stop.

Violence is never the answer. Ever.

May Charlie's memory be a blessing β€” and may his tragic death inspire us all to remember our shared humanity.

Instead of getting the resources and supports they need to help our children thrive, teachers and public schools get smeared. That's why I wrote this book: Why Fascists Fear Teachers. It's available now for pre-order; in bookstores in Sept. www.WhyFascistsFearTeachers.com

Knowing Trump, does anyone really think the more likely reality was that Mr. They-Let-You-Do-Anything was NOT in on the child sexual assault ring?!??

Dunno if I’m more excited that Mamdani won or that Cuomo lost.

Congrats to Zohran Mamdani and NYC!!!!

And hope the Democratic Party is taking notes. Voters want principled leaders who understand their lives and offer bold solutions to their problems. Not corporate billionaire-backed mushy centrist BS.

Fascist governments attack and handcuff people just for asking questions because fascist governments are afraid of truth.

Last I checked, even when Republicans weren’t just trying to ask legitimate questions but unproductively heckling Biden and his administration, no one threw them to the floor and handcuffed them.

They swore to defend the Constitution.
Not to disappear citizens into unmarked vans.
Not to serve fear. Not to serve factions.

Oaths matter. Or they mean nothing.

Please try to imagine how OUTRAGED Donald Trump would have been had President Obama violated the Constitution by accepting a $400M bribe from Qatar in the form of a private plane.

Schumer doesn’t seem to understand that when the fascists are inside our government jackbooting our democracy, you stand outside holding hands with your allies β€” protesting and trying everything possible to stop the fascists.

What you do NOT do is offer to help tie the fascists’ laces.

And that the Trump administration is taking these steps in the wake of encouraging Germany to allow more pro-Nazi speech and protests is just ….. y’all see that, right????

US authorities arrest Palestinian student protester at Columbia University, students say The detention of graduate student Mahmoud Khalil appears to be one of the first efforts by Donald Trump to fulfill his promise to seek the deportation of some foreign students involved in the pro-Palestinian protest movement.

This is an unacceptable un-American attack on the First Amendment!

Whatever you think of the protests #MahmoudKhalil helped lead, the right to protest and speak your mind is a fundamental right in our nation.

Donald Trump also clearly performs only for an audience of one: Vladimir Putin
