- sports coverage is not about box scores anymore. it's about power and politics and corruption and sovereign wealth and real estate and the use of taxpayer money and the most publicized labor disputes in the country and yes, sometimes about ball go in hoop
- maybe that's why they want it gone
- I really admire Sam for doing this; particularly now, people with ideas about how to make democracy work better need to be running for office
- News from central Jersey: I'm running to represent New Jersey's 12th Congressional District. By entering the fray, I hope to bring ideas of repairing our frayed republic. Not only to defend it in 2026, but to build something stronger, for generations to come! samwang.substack.com/p/entering-t...
- Really excited to see my pal @samwang.bsky.social running for Congress in NJ, and happily donated. :-)

- State control of elections has undermined democracy throughout US history. Jim Crow, the 2000 election, etc. It helped lead to Trump. As Hasen notes, presidential & judicial supremacy are what we need to end. Independent national election admin works in parliamentary systems, & we should adopt both

- Once Trump's regime is removed from power, we need a constitutional refounding to finally create a fully egalitarian democracy. Reconstruction did not go far enough, and we can't repeat the failures of that era by keeping the flawed political institutions that helped bring us to our present crisis

- A lot of criticism of the Biden White House is unserious. But the one unforgivable failure: Merrick Garland had four years to hold these criminals accountable but chose looking nonpartisan over enforcing the law. A catastrophic error that cleared the way for even more corruption.

- On a phone call heard by millions, Pres. Trump pressured GA's Sec. of State to “find” him 11,780 votes to overturn Biden's electoral victory in Georgia. Fulton County Commissioner Mo Ivory & @davedaley.bsky.social join @ 10a to discuss why the FBI would seize the county's 2020 ballots & voter rolls

- And by "the theater," Tom Homan (paid by us) means the occupation (paid for by us) by state agents (armed & paid by us) of a state that annually sends $44 million more in taxes to DC than it gets back in federal support for the 5.8 million Americans who live there - or, as they might say, "us."

- I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

- Bovino is not leaving Minneapolis cause he wants to. Not cause Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Vance or Trump want him to go. He’s leaving because the extraordinary “ordinary” citizens of that great city - by peacefully protesting en masse - kicked him out. Lesson to be learned. We have power.

- On the execution in Minnesota: Obviously, the individuals involved should be held accountable. But responsibility goes to the top of ICE and CBP, and DHS. Their appropriations come up next week in the senate. Not a cent for DHS without pulling ICE and CBP off the streets, in MN and everywhere else.
- At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.
