Elise Stefanik is the first Trump nominee we’ve defeated, we did it because we won the PA State Senate special. Important reminder that in a democracy elections is how you bring accountability and change. Proud to be in this fight with @demfirst.bsky.social @maloneforsenate.bsky.social

Many of us are echoing @timothysnyder.bsky.social's lesson in On Tyranny, "Do not obey in advance.” A no less vital admonition that deserves attn: STAND OUT “...without that unease, there is no freedom. The moment you set an example, the spell of the status quo is broken, and others will follow."

We live at a moment when every lecture that I give to the public about US history, I have to ponder how the current moment will shape it. Talking about the election of 1800 on Friday—and I’ll be talking about violence as politics, and the vital importance of our constitutional political process.

Democracies can fade away, decline, & even die, but only if the citizens decide to give up. This isn’t a moment to give up. It’s time to-redouble of efforts to preserve American Democracy, our Constitution, & the Rule of Law.
