Elon Musk is against cruelty to AI but not people. He is fine with starving the most vulnerable in the name of deficit reduction or a war on “woke”l.” His red line is telling Grok to get bent.

Democrats need to be saying it now: we need ethics reform; Court expansion to reflect the appellate division; and to relitigate every case that stinks of corruption.

The correct Democratic position on every issue is “I will undo everything Donald Trump has done, I will destroy everything he has built, and I will impose consequences on him and everyone who helped him do it.” No negotiation. Rip it all down.

Military personnel are signaling their fidelity to the rule of law, but are wise to maintain ambiguity. Military intervention should only follow a complete failure of normal politics, such as the suspension of elections. An active, engaged citizenry can save our democracy. Let’s not punt the work.

For the last decade, extreme rhetoric has kenneled political violence —testing our bonds of affection and our polity. As citizens, we must reject discourse that seeks to villainize our fellow citizens because of their beliefs and deplatform those who amplify division or violence for personal gain.

Over on twitter a few days seeing all these CA GOPs whining, tears of rage and despair at the unfairness of it all. I tried to hit them all with a very productive two step plan for recovery. 1. Sucks to be you. 2. Time to talk to your pals in Texas.

Authoritarians often uses race as the starting point to social reorganization. Orientalism or otherism then moves to other components of identity: faith, political affiliation, education background, etc. Whiteness is not a shield. If anyone is unsafe, no one is safe.

The GOP requires a simply majority (51 votes) to enact and confirm policy it cares about (tax cuts, social program cuts, and SCOTUS appointments). Democrats require a supermajority vote (60 votes) to pass what the country needs. It’s time to end the filibuster.

The average American family had to finance 56 percent of healthcare costs prior to Medicare/Medicaid. That limited most Americans’ discretionary spending and resulted in slower economic growth. The GOP is embracing a return to that model but promising faster economic growth.

The Senate GOP just voted for the most regressive tax policy in U.S. history. If passed by the House and signed into law by Trump, he will be responsible for 1/3 of all the national debt between his two terms just in the first year of his second term.

Tonight was a historic night as New York City voted for the politics of promise. New Yorkers chose character, vision, and hope over the cynicism and fear that has demarcated its politics for over two decades. I wish Mamdani success in the days ahead as a better New York makes for a better America.
