I don't think we'll ever be done with the "I fucking told you so's." The Food Research & Action Center reported that these changes would weaken safety nets and worsen food insecurity for low-income families: frac.org/blog/project...

Go Tribe! We have to go with Vogt's decisions. Let's hope we can win this one and the last three. Thanks for this interview. I really like your writing.

They don't want to know, because then they might have to withdraw financial support form Israel. The Military.com article is below if you want more information: www.military.com/senate-block...

New bro code: "Protect women. Respect women. Believe women." The code is accountability, human decency, human kindness, respect. It has to be.

Todd Blanche's excuse for sitting on Epstein files was that producing them is a hassle. The judge's answer: nothing "excuses him." Congress passed the law. Tell them to enforce it: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

Tell Congress: Demand AG Blanche release ALL of the Epstein files now
Contact Congress today!

There is a moment at the very very end of Abdul El-Sayed's podcast with Ezra Klein (book recommendation section) where he talks about the idea of "speaking truth to pain" and this will be staying with me for an extremely long time. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/25/o...
But there’s also something about truth to pain. We talk a lot about truth to power, but I think it’s actually a lot harder to speak truth to pain. I say that as someone who went to medical school, realizing that in a lot of our politics right now, we’ve got to get a lot better at speaking truth to pain if we’re going to get through some of these challenges that we have.

What does “truth to pain” mean?

It’s one thing to look power in the eye and say: You’re wrong about this. But there’s a way in which pain is very difficult to reason with. Because when somebody is in their pain, they’re in their trauma. They see that pain, and they may not see what’s causing it.

I remember just very explicitly being in a trauma ward with a gunshot wound patient and watching this big guy with his hand on his gunshot wound. All the folks are trying to pull his hand off his pain, that point of his gunshot wound, this clear vulnerability.

And this emergency room doctor had the presence of mind to be like: Everyone, stop. And she looks him in the eyes, and she’s like: I get that really hurts, and I’m so sorry that you’re here. You don’t want to be here. We don’t want you to be here. But if you don’t let us fix this, you could die. So I’m going to take your hand, and I’m going to move it off, OK? Because I need to get there so that you can live.

She was speaking truth to pain. He understands he’s at the hospital, he needs care, but he also doesn’t want anybody to touch the wound. Which is a natural thing. And I think it is a really great metaphor for how we think about a lot of these challenges we talked about today.

"Saying no" is the 1st step in bringing change as it unleashes your personal power and contributes to the collective power of all people. History has shown that collective power has the ability to bring down governments! VOTE!
