Gimme all the greens
I literally never want to stop
If you didn’t catch the significance of the exploding transformers in Bad Bunny’s halftime show, I gotcha. Here’s one of a bunch of pieces I wrote from/on Puerto Rico about the crisis—and Trump’s role in it. slate.com/news-and-pol...
Puerto Ricans have been fighting for energy democracy - the right to control their grid locally and build the clean energy future on the island - for decades. If you want to support an incredible effort, get plugged into the work led by Queremos Sol! queremossolpr.org

what a shot
A we mourn the ravaging of the Washington Post, it's a great day to subscribe to your local newspaper or another regional paper. Local reporting has a huge positive impact on local rights & justice, & we are seeing local papers shut down at devastating speed
Democracy dies in darkness is still true
"ICE will leave Minnesota if you hand over your voter rolls" tells you everything you need to know.
This was never about immigration or fraud. It was always about rigging elections.

Since last fall’s election win, Trump has raked in more than $80 million in settlements stemming from lawsuits he has brought against Big Tech and media companies.
YouTube is the latest.
Trump's lawyer says the companies wouldn't have settled if he wasn't president.

Kimmel's show put together a montage of Trump insisting dozens of times yesterday to "DON'T TAKE TYLENOL." Complete insanity.
Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously
But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state
Keep that same energy of support for her
JEN!! I’m so sorry to hear this. Hope you’re feeling okay right now and that surgery is a breeze. Email forthcoming!
I am so sorry, Courtney! That is so scary, and I am glad to hear he is okay and hopefully home resting with you. Sending love and healing thoughts your way!
YOU MUST DO YOUR STRETCHES TO HAVE STRENGTH TO CRUSH YOUR ENEMIES.
The importance of these protests isn’t necessarily that they are sending a message to the “people in power.”
It’s sending a message to other people that WE have the power.
That’s the good stuff!! You are in great company
Good morning.
Listen, you have to just decide.
They are not taking the Black Smithsonian.
Resolve it in your spirit.
So much performance anger at the tesla dealerships protests… what about the schools where children are habitual murdered and remembered with thoughts and prayers.
Apparently L.J. Smith passed away earlier this month. High school me could often be found with one of her books & frequently foisted them on others. I still have all of them on my shelf. She was a foundational influence on who I am as both a reader and a writer.

A banner hangs over a highway, reading Long Covid Is A Public Health Emergency
Saturday was Long Covid Awareness Day. As we suffer through the fifth year of the pandemic, thousands are becoming disabled by this illness. I'll have more on the topic soon.
Vivian Stephens needs some help.
Let's help her. #romancelandia
Middletown, Connecticut has taken another step towards reckoning with it's slavery past. For the first time ever, the town has named a street after an enslaved person. He once walked that street every day.
The uncomfortable truth is the "Trump campaigned on egg prices" thing is something Dems tell themselves to rationalize what happened in November. Trump actually campaigned on hate and abusing power -- and won!
The sorry state of the American electorate is a difficult thing to come to terms with.
This new EO signed today appears to create DOGE as a shadow government across the entire federal government. Each agency/dept will be assigned a DOGE minder who will work with the Secry or Director and essentially be in charge of all new hiring and/or firing. People have been saying the Elon is ...
OK, I wrote my “who’s going to enforce it?” piece. It’s a lengthy read, trying to respond to a lot of questions I’ve gotten over the past three weeks, but it’s about democracy so I decided it was worth it to lay out in depth, with examples, what I’ve been talking about here and elsewhere.
The thing about fascism is that it loses. Every time. Might take us a while, but in the meantime remember the name of every corporation pulling this shit and never give them your $ or attention again if you are in a situation where you are able.
Submit this to the Smithsonian!
