Candidates should go on all of the shows, but if the host has controversial or even abhorrent views, they should bring them up and debate their differences. Not that hard…
New: @hasanthehun is driving a wedge in the Democratic Party. @playbookdc surveyed 14 potential '28 Dem candidates, asking whether they would appear on a livestream with Piker if invited. Only 3 definitively said they would. Plus: my interview w/ Piker.

Not enough attention being paid to the fact that a 19-year-old died in ICE custody in Florida last week.

The 19-year-old told police he speaks Tzotzil, an indigenous language from Mexico.

if james talarico wins we are gluing his ass to the senate floor and not letting him leave for 20 years
These are my five names, too. Although if @jamestalarico pulls off a miracle victory in Texas against the odds surely he goes to the top of the list for 2028?

So far, 61 House members have decided not to run again, including 39 Republicans and 22 Democrats. The GOP exodus is the largest since 1930 other than in Trump's first midterm year of 2018. (The GOP lost 40 seats that year.) @ash_wuu @RobertJimison

The number of Republicans departing the House this cycle is one of the highest since 1930.

This is absolutely infuriating and completely idiotic. An estimated 95,000 scientists and researchers have left federal agencies since Trump returned to the White House. These are the people tracking hurricanes, studying pediatric cancer, and modeling the climate tipping points

Organizers expect today's No Kings Day rallies — with more than 3,000 events planned across all 50 states — to be the largest single-day protest in American history. #nokings

If there's one thing Democratic women love, it's being referred to as "a lot of Barbs and Deborahs."
“I’m a megaphone, right?” @hasanthehun tells me. “There are a lot of Barbs and Deborahs out there in Minneapolis, for example, that have never encountered me, and yet they share that frustration with the failures of establishment liberalism all the same.” https://t.co/UReVI6JqKJ

BREAKING: Donald Trump claimed No Kings protestors are paid. Throwback to when Mallory McMorrow exposed his obvious lie.

People criticizing Ethan Agarwal for an affinity for threesome porn are endorsing or supporting Graham Platner. Make it make sense.

The lesson that every Dem needs to take from this--as well as the previous ~10 years of politics--is: Don't depend on the online Far-Left for political support. No matter how much you cater to them, if you say *one* thing that diverges from "The Party," they will sabotage you.

“The scaremongers were wrong. Over its first 14 months, congestion pricing has exceeded even the high hopes of many supporters. It has reduced traffic, improved the quality of life and even provided a boost for businesses. Talk of killing it has faded.”

The success of congestion pricing is a reminder that government, done right, has immense power to improve people’s lives.

Vince Lombardi died in 1970 when Donald Trump was in his early twenties and not yet a public figure. He did not know him.
Trump: "I find that people that win, it's much easier to lead when you're successful. Vince Lombardi was a very tough person. He was a violent guy, actually. I knew him. But he won and he got away with things because he won."

CORRECTION: There are two upcoming rallies with Hasan Piker. One in March, which Graham Platner is no longer participating in. The other in April in Michigan with Abdul El-Sayed, which State Rep Carrie Rheingans withdrew from. I wrongly tweeted that they were the same rally.
