Corey Booker just raised the bar, concluding with a call for “good trouble.” Now his fellow Dems need to clear it—and raise it higher.

The question I've been asked most as we endure the legal dumpster fire that is the Trump Administration is, "What can we do about it when it's not election season?" @timothynoah.bsky.social has an outstanding essay in the @newrepublic.com addressing that question. newrepublic.com/article/1931...

This is the simplest and most obvious explanation.

Trump’s address to Congress was a long-winded, dishonest, & authoritarian spectacle. He criticized Biden, falsely claimed economic victories & played the bully by removing Rep. Al Green for protesting. But more concerning than his rhetoric is the broader impact of his policies. Jen Rubin explains.

When Trump and his crime family comes for your data, American tech won't save you. They'll hand it over because they have no choice. European and Canadian alternatives aren't perfect, but at least they aren't under Trump's thumb. Here's my post-Trump tech stack.

How I’m Building a Trump-Proof Tech Stack Without Big Tech
The world can no longer trust American tech. If that sounds dramatic, take a step back and consider the facts. The United States is a nation in the thrall of authoritarianism, owned and operated almost completely by a far-right doomsday cult intent on betraying every alliance, every contract, every promise

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right. The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter. Everyone must choose which side they’re on. Now.

This is a friendly reminder that the size and health of your body have nothing to do with your worth as a person. And they have nothing to do with your commitment to veganism, which is an ethic of justice, not a diet. #HappyNewYear

Cruciferous vegetables are the ones in the cabbage family like kale, broccoli, collards, turnip greens, and mustard greens. Other leafy greens contain lots of calcium, but we don’t absorb much of it. (They provide potassium, though, so are still good for bone health.)

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens. Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”
Post from Latino pollster Mike Madrid:

“Doing some research for an upcoming article on the last “mass deportation” of Mexicans during the 1930’s.

Over half of those deported were US citizens.”
