Today is pub day for my third book and debut monograph! This baby has had quite the journey, and I'm so thrilled to see where it lands in the world. Link below for the info - please buy it if you have the means, ask your libraries to stock it if you don't, and ask me to things!

Mo Goldman: The Fight Is Now.
Mo Goldman: The Fight Is Now. YouTube video by Mo Goldman For Congress

I’m Mo Goldman, and I’m running for Congress in #AZ06.

Republicans are tearing this country apart β€” and too many Democrats are too afraid to stop them. I’ve spent 20+ years fighting for families as an immigration attorney. Now, I’m taking that fight to Washington.

It’s really fascinating what happens when you remove diversityβ€”white male incompetency is placed on full display and with no one to blame for their actions β€”so they just lie.

A buddy in publishing is trying to runs ads for a book event (nonfiction history of transgender medicine) and Facebook won’t run any version of the ad because it’s a β€œsensitive social issue that could influence public opinion”. What the actual fuck.

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options.

Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

If it is in the opinion section, that’s not necessarily inappropriate (tho encouraging whataboutism is a problem). NPR is different imo because of their loud struggles with a paucity of opinions (and how this internal struggle has broken the 4th wall lately).

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.

He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.

Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

Sending love out to every author who learned that their publisher’s marketing plan for their new book was to have an intern visit a remote woodland in winter, dig a hole in the frozen earth, and whisper their book’s title once, β€˜neath the crescent moon.

β€œDon’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record.

They run them bc people react to them the most.

If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change.

It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

Pardoning Hunter is so far out of character for Biden that it’s really scary to imagine what he knows is on the horizon.

It feels like a way more wholesome version of Tiger King.

So obvious we’re all debating how much space they need and if they’d have a bb if we got two.

Holy shit, Kash Patel as trump's Director of the FBI is such an insanely bad pick, it makes Matt Gaetz and Tulsi Gabbard look like rational, savvy picks.

Seriously, who's picking these clowns, Steve Bannon?
