BREAKING: Judge Reyes has issued a preliminary injunction over the golf course and begins with this: "Rarely, if ever, has the United States Department of Justice urged a federal court not to believe the sitting President." ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show...

That’s what I call Tailgate Accountability—a practice of building across our differences, holding boundaries that keep us accountable to our values, and each of us doing our part to push back on those who intentionally seek to polarize us. 2/3

NEW: Watchdog group Democracy Forward asks court to expand its halt on Trump taxpayer-funded TV ads to block ads from social media & YouTube They argue govt staff are helping produce “advertisements fawning over President Trump and attacking his ideological opponents”

Divide & conquer mentalities perpetuated by anti-democratic actors seek to have us blame each other, instead of holding those in power accountable. This robs all of us of our freedom & power. In reality, people build community across differences every day—you can see this clearly at the tailgate.

Lots of noise today. Cut through it. This is an “all-hands” moment; this election will be by & for the people. 🗳️Check voter registration at vote411.org 🗳️Vote early if possible & take a friend. 🗳️Call 1-866-OUR-VOTE if you experience any problems. 🗳️ Consider volunteering. More at vote.org.

Our government cannot deliver for its people without the public servants who make it work. Our new report examines how dismantling the civil service harms the American people — and how we can rebuild. Read The Cost of a Civil Service Under Attack: https://bit.ly/4zblBKs

I spoke with CNN midday, as the hearing was still underway, about the importance of our work to enforce the law and demand checks and balances. This is no time for “catch me if you can justice”.

East Potomac Park is a national park and golf course for everyone to enjoy. Our litigation is intended to protect this community jewel for the people and communities it serves. We'll continue to work in our plaintiffs to defend East Potomac Park from unlawful and harmful intrusion.

Today Meta removed No Kings’s page at the peak of the largest voter turnout activation in our history. While access has now been restored, this was concerning timing and we hope it is not a sign of things to come but must be prepared.

Today, we were inspired by the millions of Americans participating in the No Kings Early Vote Day. We are disappointed with Meta for the sudden suspension of our partner organization, No Kings Coalition’s Instagram account.
