I would have sat down and sung with them.
BREAKING: we just made the pro-oil Senator Amy Klobuchar flee the stage at her book launch party. Her book title? The Joy of Politics

We should not be the world’s largest arms dealer.

We can only beat Trump by offering a genuine economic and political alternative. Otherwise voters — particularly young people — will stay home in droves.

We can find the money to subsidize multibillion industries, but we can't find the money to save a rural college. This is so sad....
Iowa Boy @chuckoburger delivers a deeply reported and moving piece on last gasps of closing Iowa Wesleyan in Mount Pleasant. Amazing how state could find $20M in incentives for Apple for 50 jobs in Waukee but not $12M to save Wesleyan, boost rural SE Iowa open.substack.com/pub/chucko…

Watching the former president on CNN tonight. If ever there was a night that proves how important it is for Democrats to have a choice in who they nominate, it’s now. President Biden debating his challengers is not just the right thing to do; it’s a critically important thing to do. Choosing which Democrat should face Trump in 2024 is one of the most important decisions any of us will ever make.

I remember when I was in college and she came there to speak against the Viet Nam War. She was so gorgeous and inspiring, I was in awe. And she’s just as amazing now.
I joined the inspiring @Janefonda at a rally this evening in NYC outside a Wall Street fundraiser for President Biden. Her simple message: we must put our bodies on the line to save the planet. "Now is the time for civil disobedience."

I have a lot of affection for this bookstore. I signed the petition. All my best to the workers there.
I haven’t talked about it much here, but the employees at Powell’s Books (yes, where I work) are fighting for a living wage and better healthcare. Powell’s isn’t keen on giving us either. We’re asking folks to read, sign, and share this petition 💖 bit.ly/tell-powells

What Norfolk Southern did in East Palestine is the embodiment of a malevolent system.

"It is important that the President debate me." Presidential hopeful Marianne Williamson thinks it's undemocratic of Joe Biden to not debate other candidates in the primary season. @marwilliamson | @piersmorgan | @TalkTV | #PMU
