I won my first election by just 6 votes. I would drag my wheelchair up stairs just to knock on someone’s door. Why? Because that’s how important your vote is to me.

I'm not running to bow to a corporation. I'm not running to raise your utility rates or help them do it. I'm not running so that your premium goes up and everybody looks the other way. I'm running to fight for you.

To me one of the most encouraging things about Francis of Assisi is how you can see his rather chaotic trajectory as a saint as an effort to figure out the traumas of whatever he saw at the battle of Collestrada and went through in his imprisonment in Perugia. The worst things can make us amazing.

The thing I love about Saint Francis is that he was NUTS, running around the countryside in a dirty beggar's robe talking to birds, and he accomplished what was his to do and reformed the whole church. ALL OF US can be saints. Weird people make excellent saints. All are called. It's wonderful.

The problem has never really been that conservative voters are reluctant to criticize Trump. The problem is a relentless right-wing media apparatus that tells them Democrats are worse.

Pete is lost in terms of modern war. I use the example of this outgunned Ukrainian army officer who successfully terrorized a Russian unit for weeks because she "did the math." At the time, someone commented, "yeah, in combat, 'I did the math' beats 'I can do 100 pushups' every time."
Ukrainian female soldier: Okay, I said the idea is this: There is enough time to empty one full can of 32 grenades and be gone by the time the return mortar fire reaches us. I did the math.

I’ve been wondering whether this was less about the shock of watching Schmitt get pantsed than it was about realizing that you’re the next Republican questioner, and your script was based on following up this accusation, and now you have nothing.

I was agnostic about universal injunctions, but vacatur is authorized by federal statute so declaring it unconstitutional is an act of judicial supremacy masquerading as judicial restraint.

This seems impeachable but per Trump v US invocation of the insurrection act is a core presidential power so absolutely immune and giving an interview talking about a core power is absolutely immune and are we fucking getting it yet, that the Republican Party is engaged in an ongoing insurrection?

The death penalty is a moral abomination. State-sanctioned barbarism pushed by incompetent morons and sanctioned by the Supreme Court. Absolute ghoul shit. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...
The lone woman on Tennessee's death row was still alive after she was administered two lethal injections, her lawyer said in a motion seeking to halt her execution Wednesday night, a stunning development after the Supreme Court had stepped in to allow the state to put her to death.
At 8:26 p.m. local time, witnesses said
"executioners had injected both syringes of lethal injection chemicals and Pike is still alive and snoring," her lawyers said in a federal court filing.
They said Pike "has not lost consciousness and still has a heartbeat," and that curtains to the death chamber "have gone down twice."

The lede is like something a soldier might have written decades after storming Omaha Beach, and having lived long enough to tell his grandchildren about how he somehow survived that fateful day.
For years, the first thing I did upon awakening was check Twitter to see if I had been canceled. After a quick name search to ensure that there was only the usual amount of frothing denunciation, I could get on with my day.
