So @PublishersWkly just gave my book about antifa a STARRED review!
To Catch A Fascist is an “urgent, eye-opening debut” that is “by turns heart-pounding and heartening glimpse of the fight against fascism in the shadows.”

- we just went through two years of parents storming school boards calling masks child abuse
- A lot of businesses in downtown Charlottesville with these signs.
- I have covered fascist rallies and Trump rallies. This Trump rally was a fascist rally.
- The dad next door to our apartment in Brooklyn just took his small kids outside to let them scream as loud as they want for a few minutes before taking them back inside
- massive march in Brooklyn right now. Been like this for 10 minutes
00:00 - After cops tackled & arrested me, & after I identified myself as a journalist, they refused to give me my phone, leaving it on the street. Later that night another journalist found my phone. Turned out it was recording while cops pressed my head into the concrete & cursed at meWhile covering anti-racist protests, police arrested HuffPost reporter Christopher Mathias even though he showed off his press pass.
00:00 - Your daddy once called for a “complete and total shutdown of Muslims entering the U.S.” He once said “I think Islam hates us.” Sit this one the fuck outDon’t give the POS NZ shooter what he wants. Don’t speak his name don’t show the footage. Seems that most agree on that. The questions is can the media do what’s right and pass up the ratings they’ll get by doing the opposite? I fear we all know the answer unfortunately.
- Sister of man killed while defending Muslims in Portland: "I am so proud to be able to call someone so brave and strong my big brother."
- It’s just such a profound betrayal of our profession - on so many levels - to describe the murder of one of our own in the passive voice
- The pivot from “it didn’t happen!” to “an illegal immigrant did it!” is one of the most breathtakingly ghoulish right-wing media news cycles
- NEW: In a remarkable letter sent to the White House today, @KamalaHarris leads 27 senators in calling for the “immediate removal” of white nationalist Stephen Miller
