My prayer for US political journalism: Stop trying to predict election outcomes. Stop treating polling like science. Center the voices of voters. And focus on policy proposals and policy outcomes—not the horserace. #electionday

Hard to overstate how little respect Trump and his circle had for the United States of America, its laws and traditions.

Thank you, @lexim. Inspired by your words and actions, I decided to make my own voice heard. And encourage you, friends, to do the same. If you need any suggested language, please feel free to take from my email.
If you want to take tangible action tonight, email the man who has the power to cancel the NRA event in Houston this weekend. His name is David Mincberg. He’s a Democrat. He’s chairman of the board that owns the convention center hosting the NRA: [email protected] 1/2

It is not partisan to point out that it's profoundly disturbing that the former President of the United States was calling Putin a genius on the eve of the largest invasion in Europe since World War II. It's a fact. This isn't normal but we have become numbed to it.

I post this regularly, and many express surprise.
This is the current childhood immunization schedule. Many childhood vaccines are three+ doses, sometimes a booster.
This is one reason why, unlike earlier centuries, we don't have cemeteries full of children. We've forgotten.

Y’all need to stop doing this until Liz Cheney supports the voting rights bill. That’s actually the biggest thing she could do to save our democracy.

This looks like Harry is her hairdresser and he’s looking into the mirror explaining what he did to her layers.

There is no more telling way to convey the corruption inherent in having a Trump branded property just blocks from a Trump White House than its desolation a week into the Biden era.

Another lesson of this past week may be that it has not been such a great idea for civics and history classes to be reduced or eliminated in so many of our schools.

Clear to WHOM?! It‘s been all too clear to the Muslims banned; the children caged; the immigrants demonized; the Black people brutalized; the women sexually assaulted; the voters disenfranchised; the millions sickened by COVID; the millions more of us gaslit—bc of Trump.

.@davidfrum: "This is a moment of shame and grief. If we are not very careful, it will also be a terrible moment of opportunity for President Donald Trump. The violence Trump incited could be his pretext for further abuses of presidential power. "theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv…

"With his incitement of a direct assault on the people’s house, the president has forfeited his claim to finish his term. The House must again impeach him, and the Senate must vote to remove him." theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv…

Imagine if the mainstream media had used today’s skepticism, judgment and straight talk *all along* instead of letting Trump be their assignment editor for five years

This will go down in one of the craziest photos in American history. The scattered papers indicating a rushed departure. The posing for a selfie. The MAGA, terrorist, and Daniel Boone aesthetic. WTF is going on with America rn?

Can you imagine what the police and National Guard response would be if these were Black, brown and poor people trying to storm the Capitol? This is unreal.

"Homeless children's lack of access to the virtual classroom has been on the city's radar since the start of the pandemic, yet these children are hardly better off than they were in March," said Grant Mainland, atty for some of the students. reuters.com/article/health-c…
