I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

This morning, the federal government turned the full force of the Department of Homeland Security against a sitting member of Congress for the offense of disagreeing with the White House.

The path to citizenship should not be weaponized against anyone, including Rep. Ilhan Omar, a naturalized American who swore an oath to this country — the same one that I took.

The promise of citizenship should not be contingent on someone agreeing with the federal government.

One more possible sign that AI is already impacting employment in NYC: For the first time in decades, NYers ages 22–27 with a college degree have a higher unemployment rate than those without one. How long do we wait before we start treating this as real?

When Matthew Soerens of World Relief tells Christians the Trump administration has banned persecuted Christians, many don't believe him. We talked about why. Listen to the whole conversation: austinkocher.substack.com/p/president-... @matthewsoerens.bsky.social
Quote card. Matthew Soerens, World Relief: “Occasionally, they do not believe this data, because they’ve heard so much rhetoric about Donald Trump being a great champion of persecuted Christians.

Why winning the Senate matters: - Only it can remove a President from office - Only it can approve treaties - Only it approves cabinet Secretaries - Only it can approve military promotions - Only it can approve judges - Only it can remove Supreme Court justices - It must approve all legislation

The biggest divide is not between “right” and “left." It’s between democracy and oligarchy. The billionaires who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see that they have all the wealth and power. Remember this.

Coal companies are fighting miners’ federal black lung benefits claims, while the black lung rate surges to a 50-year high. Remember: Trump indefinitely stalled a rule that would limit miners’ exposure to dangerous silica dust, which causes black lung. The “pro-worker” president.

When Elon Musk's groups spent $20M+ on Wisconsin's 2025 Supreme Court race, his involvement backfired and his candidate lost by 10 points. Now his super PAC has quietly spent $14M+ on key midterm races, including the Texas Senate race. Would be a shame if people found out.

Elon Musk is flying under the radar in the Texas Senate race. Republicans want to keep it that way.

Trump treats WH reporters like shit. They should respond in kind. No more deference. Talk back to him. Tell him he just lied, and didn’t answer the question. Correct him. Confront him with reality. Ask him why he surrounds himself with sycophants. Ask him if he’s lying or just crazy.
