Rep. Thomas Massie says Trump called him on the House floor after he pushed to release the Epstein files.

Trump told him three times: "I'm coming at you like you've never seen in your life."

This video was deleted from twitter yesterday, you know what to do ‼️‼️

Please let this be true today:

“There was always just enough virtue in this Republic to save it; sometimes none to spare, but still enough to meet the emergency.” —William Seward, Secretary of State during the civil war.

I escaped a psychologically abusive, controlling marriage. Wives required to disclose their vote to their husbands ? I voted for @KamalaHarris for my daughter and granddaughter—but also for love of my young 18-year old self. #NotGoingBack #Vote2024 #WhenWeFightWeWin #Harris

Over five years ago, I warned that Trump's reckless tariffs would wreck the economy. Many Americans have forgotten that the Trump economy was sinking well before the pandemic.

Here's my commentary from 2019. The massive expansion of tariffs Trump's proposing now is far worse.

C’mon just read this.

A century ago, Germany’s democracy was hijacked by a bombastic and charismatic tyrant — and in this five-minute video, you’ll learn how he did it. Why did I produce this? Because I believe that history is speaking to us, and all too often, those who refuse to learn from it are doomed to repeat it.

As you watch, imagine filling out a Bingo card filled with Germany 1933/USA 2024 parallels: big rallies, rage-filled and hateful rhetoric, simple answers promising quick and easy solutions to complicated problems, empty promises of a great-again future, scapegoating outsiders, and political enemies silenced on day one. And notice the caring wisdom and concern from my German friends as they share these lessons from their dark history.

It’s hard to understand how Trump could, on the eve of a tight election, paint a picture of Liz Cheney before a firing squad by actually saying, “Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, OK? And let’s see how she feels about it when the guns are trained on her face.” You can’t get into the mind of a dictator with an insatiable appetite for power — but you can recognize the playbook they all seem to follow.

Just watch this clip. It’s excerpted from my hourlong public television special “The Story of Fascism in Europe,” which is streaming free (and ad-free) at https://t.co/YA10kVH0V8. If you care about our democracy and love our country, it’s hard to stop watching.

When I produced this in 2018, I hoped this day would never come in our country. But November 5th is upon us. Please share this with anyone in your life who might need a reminder that the stakes are high...and this is very real.
