Good. Oregon has just sued the Trump Administration, saying that they “infringed on Oregon’s sovereign power to manage its own law enforcement activity” & that doing so “threaten to undermine public safety by inciting a public outcry.” Fighting back works.

What a moment. Jimmy Kimmel tonight with the best redemption line: “We are broadcasting to 100% of the country tonight.”

James Talarico is so good at this: “We have politicians in congress with Christ follower in their Twitter bio, but they are kicking the sick off their health care.”

“This is JB Pritzker, reporting from war-torn Chicago. It’s quite disturbing. The Milwaukee Brewers have come in to attack our Chicago Cubs. We’ve seen people being forced to eat hot dogs with ketchup on them.” THIS is how you do it.

Whatever you think about Zohran Mamdami, there is no denying he is a once-in-a-lifetime candidate — offering a bold vision for New Yorkers, energizing new voters, & being one of the best communicators our party has. He is a force to be reckoned with & we should all embrace him.

Did something I’ve never done before & gathered concerned citizens to come together in person & learn from one of the foremost scholars on authoritarianism, Tim Snyder. We talked about how we can collectively resist in this moment. Find your people, gather, & fight—together.

NEW: Mikie Sherill AND Abigail Spanberger will be the next governor of their respective states. Turns out that Democrats are NOT dead and Republicans are losing popularity.

Hope everyone watching this speech sees that Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani is a truly incredible communicator & orator. His delivery is so clear, energetic, exciting — truly a once-in-a-generation communicator.

If you don’t know Lina Khan, now is a great time to know about her. She’s now on Zohran Mamdani’s transition team. She’s also the former FTC Chair, only 36, & committed to leveling the playing field for everyday Americans. She is an absolute star. This is what hope feels like.

Let this sink in: in a Tennessee district that Trump won by 22 points in 2024, Aftyn Behn, the Democratic candidate, has closed that gap by *20* points. Only 2 points separate her and her opponent. Republicans & Trump are running scared. All eyes on Tennessee.

I don’t know how or why anyone can look up to him. There is nothing moral or decent about this guy. He is disgusting, despicable, and an evil human being.
