We are facing a serious threat to democracy, law, and liberty. The abuse of prosecutorial power to intimidate, investigate, and detain political opponents is upon us. It is a constitutional crisis. I will keep speaking out until public outrage overflows. I just hope it’s not too little, too late.
After getting some rest, I am in awe of everyone who continues to lift their voice and speak out. This is a moment for our country, and we must make a choice about the America we want to be.
There’s so much GOP cope happening today.
“At least Wisconsin approved voter ID so libs can’t cheat”
Wisconsin has required voter ID since 2015.
You spent millions of dollars and got your ass kicked for a rule that already existed and that fundamentally changes nothing.
No, no everything is fine. Stay the course! Trust the plan! Don’t change a single thing!
It’s stunning to me that the New York Times did not put the story on the bloodbath at the NIH, CDC, and FDA on its front page this morning.
The sea was angry that day, my friends.
Today, the House GOP censured me for speaking out for the American people against @POTUS’s plan to cut Medicaid. I accept the consequences of my actions, but I refuse to stay silent in the face of injustice. #WeShallOvercome x.com/repalgreen/s...
Today in US History: On Feb. 3, 1870, the 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was ratified, granted black men the right to vote. It was passed by Congress on February 26, 1869. Black Americans were set free by the 13th amendment. The 14th Amendment guaranteed citizenship.

Nearly all of Puerto Rico is without power on New Year's Eve
Happy New Year.
2024 was a difficult year for transgender people, and yet at the turning of the year, I find myself holding on tightly to the small moments of peace we have right now.
2025 will be difficult, and it is essential that we find space for peace and rest to prepare for it.
And stay out!
(Native American dude) You came and conquered, never seeking our permission. And now you cautiously guard your borders, fearing others will enter your nation and try to harm you. Your fear betrays your character. Rather than trusting the abundance of nature and the goodness of the human spirit, you find it difficult to trust because you know yourselves to be untrustworthy.
Perfect analysis of the horrific 9-0 Supreme Court disqualification decision from the experts at Lawfare. Loved the discussion on tonight's Legal AF. Many legal experts agree it was the wrong decision, but it was what the Court ruled unanimously nonetheless.

I stand with the transgender community.
I support transgender people and they are welcome on my timeline.

First time back in the White House since I resigned during Trump 1.0. It was more emotional than I imagined it would be. Even harder to process after everything that’s happened—but also a powerful reminder of my love for this country. Yes, this is hard, but grateful for all of you. Happy Holidays!

Tried my best. Sorry I couldn’t pull it through everyone - we live to fight another day. ♥️
MAGA America is so transphobic that even when a Cisgender person shoots up a school, right wing bigots on X blame the trans community instead of guns.
They preach hate towards innocent people to fight actual hate instead of searching for solutions.
Manchester NH is a cautionary tale. The day after the US Supreme Court allowed it, Mayor Jay Ruais sent city police to break up encampments and arrest the unhoused. Now, instead of congregating outside the city's largest shelter, the unhoused are EVERYWHERE in downtown—much more visible than before.
One of NH’s worsening problems after years of caustic indifference from Gov. Chris Sununu and GOP legislators is a surge in homelessness. A new report shows a 52% increase in homelessness in NH in 2023 was more than 4x the national average. www.wmur.com/article/repo...
Proposed legislation that would harm our immigrant communities is unacceptable - and we'll be carefully following all bills this legislative session to defend and protect the rights of all of us. www.nhpr.org/education/20...
“Why don’t you stick to acting?” It’s a taunt I often have hurled at me.
I am a gay man in America whose marriage is under threat.
The last time Trump was in office, hate crimes against AAPIs skyrocketed.
I care deeply about this country and the future of our democracy.
I’ll stick to activism.
Did you know there is an organization that specifically gives to underfunded rural Democratic nominees? This is how we build the bench in red states.
I am the Executive Director of Blue Missouri. Last August we disbursed almost 230k for down-ballot nominees. You can join us! bluemissouri.org
We have a peculiar historical event shaping up where the oligarch billionaire class is about to fleece this country while most of their supporters are working people who are convinced that they are on their side because they hate migrants & trans people.
Despite spending big on ads in 2024 promising they wouldn't, NH Republicans have filed multiple 2025 bills to restrict abortion rights, including a travel ban and mandatory anti-abortion curriculum in schools. #NHPolitics granitepostnews.com/2024/12/11/n...
This could prove to be an early crucial test for incoming Republican Gov. Kelly Ayotte, given her oft-repeated promise to hold the line against any further restrictions on abortion. It’s often your own party that can cause the biggest political headaches under unified government. #NHPolitics
Having our energy cut off in the winter. What could possibly go wrong?
Stop threatening our neighbors.
What do I want for Christmas?
A mysterious manor in the Scottish countryside, a vast expanse of land, a library of vintage novels, a collection of the world’s rarest wines, an owl to deliver and retrieve my post, and my own personal pastry chef.
I'm really not that hard to shop for.
