It's that magical time of year when private jets descend on a Swiss mountain village to discuss climate change and poverty! Anyway, here's my annual reminder. I'll stop posting this when they stop avoiding the real issue: their own massive tax avoidance 💰
History tells us how autocrats rise and it also tells us there is still time—but not much. If we want to stop American autocracy, we need to treat this as the emergency that it is. Read my piece with Dr. @KimLaneLaw for @TIME: https://t.co/WYMFRRlBgN
Last week in Southwest Georgia, I heard from folks who want the opportunity to thrive and support their families. They're showing up and speaking up and holding their elected officials accountable. That's where progress begins.
.@RyanHoliday's lecture on wisdom was canceled because he refused to stay silent about a book ban—at the U.S. Naval Academy. This isn’t just censorship. It’s a warning. Read his piece. Keep insisting.

This Pennsylvania barbershop is helping children build their confidence, paying young customers $3 to read stories aloud while getting a haircut deserves unlimited retweets..
630 radar shows a couple of decent snow bands yet to come through Davidson county from the west. Accumulation likely minimal. Use caution on elevated surfaces.
Accepting the election results does not mean we will passively accept fascism.
Like many, I woke up feeling despair. Our nation is broken and sick, but it is in times like these we must remain unbowed.
To District 52, thank you for re-electing me to fight this MAGA extremism.
