Senator Cory Booker, his voice still booming after more than a day spent on the Senate floor railing against the Trump administration, on Tuesday night surpassed Strom Thurmond for the longest Senate speech on record, in an act of astonishing stamina that he framed as a call to action.
Friday night, March 21, in the pouring rain, over 200 people attended a Town Hall meeting at Cavu Cellars. The purpose of the Town Hall was to bring the community together.
Walla Walla County is an amazing community. Hard times are coming for many given changes at the Federal level.
Chris Hayes leads with a story about an Idaho public school teacher who was ordered to remove a poster saying “Everyone is Welcome Here.” In Idaho during the reign of Trump, that’s not true anymore.
The show follows with Republican town halls in Wyoming and Washington. At 6:25, the audience hoses Michael Baumgartner (D-WA, CD5).
Chris Murphy, the junior senator from Connecticut, has tirelessly argued—on television, on TikTok, on The New Yorker Radio Hour—that unless the Democratic Party broadens its coalition with a primarily populist economic message and takes risks to oppose the destruction of democratic institutions, it will fail to mobilize popular support, continue to lose elections, and squander (as in Hungary, Turkey, and beyond) democracy itself.

Last week, we glimpsed regenerative grazing on the bottom ground made lush by grazing management. This week, we shift from pasture management to cattle management and wildlife.

Last month in Washington D.C., Seattle’s U.S. House representatives, Pramila Jayapal and Adam Smith, sat down for a frank talk. The subject: Smith’s loud criticisms of the far-left wing of the Democratic Party, which he casts as largely to blame for Donald Trump’s return to the White House.

We’re building a community that is going to be part of a broader solidarity movement. And all of the pieces of this movement need to be supported. In the coming months everyone will be forced to choose a side, like it or not. Stand with the Bulwark community. We want you with us.

Politicians and government agencies routinely put up signs to advertise who gets the credit for public works projects. Variations on “your tax dollars at work” have been in use for a century.
But there may be no more audacious signs than the two that went up recently down in Seattle’s Sodo neighborhood. These big MAGA-red boards welcome passersby to a completely alternate reality.

Allan Savory moved managed grazing into popular view in his 2013 TED talk on “how to green the desert.” With quiet passion, Savory argued from his experience in Africa that livestock grazing could reverse desertification. And even more, livestock could slow climate change. The secret in the sauce was rotational grazing and holistic management.

I’ve been spending some time recently with top Democrats as they think about how to rebuild after the 2024 loss. And in the 20-some years I’ve been covering politics, I have never heard Democrats so confused: about who they are — aside from their opposition to Donald Trump — as well as how and why they lost.

I’ve never been much of a Chuck Schumer fan. Like all of New York’s Democratic senators since the financial deregulation of the 1970s and ’80s and the extirpation of Rockefeller Republicanism, Schumer has cultivated Wall Street as a major source of campaign contributions.
