Very excited to announce that my new book, The Day After, is now available for pre-order. The book explores how Republicans have abused power, how Democrats have failed to effectively wield it, and finally, what Dems must do when they get power back.

"This Supreme Court has shown that it is nothing but an illegitimate arm of the Republican Party. You have Supreme Court justices who swore up and down they respected precedent as it relates to Roe-- the first thing they did is overturn Roe. Same exact thing with redistricting."

BTC: As Republicans continue to go down this path and gerrymander states across the country, I hope the next governor of California goes 52-0, New York goes 26-0. Katie Pavlich: So you're for gerrymandering now? BTC: I am across the board against gerrymandering, but not for unilaterally disarming.

"The same Supreme Court that told Black voters in Alabama and Texas that they’d have to live with illegal maps because a primary was four months away had no problem blowing up an ongoing election in Louisiana."

Why haven't we heard from a SINGLE Democratic state about steps they're taking to counteract the post-VRA GOP power grabs in Louisiana and Alabama and South Carolina and Tennessee? Do you think this is going to fix itself? Why is it so fucking difficult for Democrats to fight back?

"Democratic governors and state legislators need to realize that this is no longer about fairness; it’s about fighting back so that they are not engineered out of the House forever. And I get that Dems don’t have the stomach for this kind of warfare--- find it."

@marcelias.bsky.social said this a YEAR ago. It was sound advice then-- and even better advice today. We need to start taking action. Looking at you, Democrats in NJ, NY, MD, CO, IL, WA, OR. Marc: We "need to tell Republicans that if they take 5 seats, we're going to put 30 seats on the table."

"I concede that when you have a gerrymandered map, certain people are disenfranchised... I didn't agree with it when it happened in Texas, but what I don't want to see is unilateral disarmament."

Virginia is "a wakeup call to Democrats across the country - in NJ, NY, MD, IL, OR, WA, CO - this is the time to start fighting back... Republicans don't believe that Democrats have the right to exist. If we don't start fighting back, we're going to good government ourselves into obscurity."

"So what needs to happen now - and it needs to happen now - is that Democrat-led states need to set aside procedure and redraw the maps. New York, New Jersey, Washington, Oregon, Illinois, Maryland, and Colorado need to get it done. Do it in 2026 if possible. By 2028 is non-negotiable."
