Simple rule: the Senate should not confirm any appointee to any post who can’t say clearly who legitimately won the 2020 presidential election. Not just who was “installed”, but who won the vote and the electoral college.
🚨BREAKING: Pro-voting groups sued the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) Tuesday to block its bid to build a national voter database using private voter data from every state. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Wow 🤯
I honestly don’t see how the USA will survive the moral bankruptcy, democratic wreckage, and loss of international credibility caused by Trump 2.0
The Southern Poverty Law Center says it's the subject of a criminal investigation by the Justice Department and faces possible charges over its past use of paid informants to infiltrate extremist groups.

A really easy question to answer, a telling one to get technical on.
CHRIS WRIGHT: What happens when the wind blows right now? We turn down natural gas plants and we save 2 cents in reduced natural gas price. We pay a 4 cent subsidy and save 2 cents
WYDEN: What you are describing is fiction
RFK Jr. is testifying to a House committee.
Dem Rep. Diana DeGette tangling with him over cuts to family planning services.
"The secretary refuses to tell the American women whether he will let poor women used the contraception method of their choice."
"Let the record also reflect: It is 2026."
Doing this video with a painting of Washington in the background is a level of irony that even he’d probably cross the Delaware again just to get away from
HEAD QUARTERS MORRIS TOWN 12TH MARCH 1777 Sir You are hereby required immediately to send me an exact return of your regiment, and to send all your recruits, who have had the small pox to join the Army. Those, who have not, are to be sent to Philadelphia, and put under the direction of the commanding officer there, who will have them inoculated. You are to leave a sufficient number of proper officers to carry on the recruiting service, who are to bring up their men as soon as they are ready. No pleas, of delay, on account of the dispersion of the officers can be admitted, as every commanding officer ought to know where his inferior officers are, and they what recruits they have, and where they are to be found. You are to remain at Philadelphia, to procure arms clothing &c., and send on, your Major to Camp, to receive your detachments. Your Lieut. Colonel is also to come on, as soon as circumstances will permit. I am Sir Your most humble servant Go: Washington George Washington wrote this letter to Lt. Colonel David Grier on March 12, 1777. In it, Washington instructs Grier to send new soldiers to Philadelphia so they could be inoculated for smallpox. Washington wanted to make sure that his troops were not affected by disease, and he believed that inoculation would help with that. So, just before this letter was written, Washington created a mandated system of inoculating his soldiers.

I remember the Vietnam War well. Trump should too — we're the same age.
I was too short to serve and lost good friends in the war. Trump pretended to have bone spurs.
That war was characterized by lies, arrogance, and stupidity.
What's happening in Iran is starting to feel a lot like Vietnam.
"The coming months should be brutal for Johnson — and will, hopefully, end with his majority and speakership destroyed in a humiliating and titanic blue wave."
Spot on from @nberlat.bsky.social in @atrupar.com's latest PN:

Democracy doesn’t defend itself—people do. Virginia, this vote is about fair maps, fair voice, and equal weight to every citizen. Don’t let power be pre-decided behind lines on paper. Show up, participate, and say YES for a system that represents everyone.
🎥 VIDEO: @briantylercohen.bsky.social joins Marc Elias to discuss why an eagerness to fight should be the Democrats' North Star.
They dive into Trump's desperation, the importance of a Democratic media-ecosystem and Brian's new book, "The Day After: How to Wield Power in a Post-Trump World."👇

I will not vote for a billionaire governor. No matter what they claim, or their origins, it’s not their world that the rest of us live in.
Central California - 1.25 lb of 10% fat hamburger $17.99 - unreal and ALL Trump's fault...it didn't have to be this way...
The economy had nothing to do with high egg prices nor their return to more normal pricing.
The Avian Flu Crisis (H5N1).
The single biggest driver of the spike in egg prices was the outbreak of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza.
Beef prices just hit a record high. A pound of ground beef in many stores now costs more than the federal minimum hourly wage. These people are so out of touch it’s ridiculous.
😢
I guess he never heard of the 1918 pandemic. Started amongst American soldiers at Fort Reilly, Kansas. In the end, it killed more American soldiers than the Germans had. 64K died from the flu. 53k were killed in action. Abject, imbecillic stupidity is the hallmark of this Administration.
Kevin Warsh just lost me. He argues he's going to be an independent Fed Chair, but refuses to acknowledge that Trump lost the 2020 election. If you can't state simple facts when you're in the political spotlight, you aren't independent. You're a coward.
Every single article I read about Madonna at Coachella mentioned that she’s 67. Not one article I read about Nine Inch Nails at Coachella mentioned that Trent’s 60.
ISN’T THAT WEIRD?
It’s almost as if everything Madonna has ever said about misogyny is true, or something. 🤷♂️
The DOJ is now 5 month in breach of releasing the Epstein files.
Holding these criminals accountable should be the Nuremberg of our time.
SORKIN: There's a whole number of very large companies, including Apple and Amazon, that have not sought reimbursements yet for the tariffs. From what I understand, part of the reason is they're worried about offending you.
TRUMP: I think it's brilliant. They got to know me very well. I'm honored.
Vance was the choice of the tech elite, not a nationally popular politician. Will be interesting to see if they go all in in trying to carry him to 2028.
There’s something mentally wrong with the President of the United States.
lol
HAHA he’s the judge who asked the Mueller team if they had investigated Mike Flynn for treason and called Flynn a traitor hahahahaha
New in PN: Speaker Johnson's beginning of the end
"Johnson has such a small majority he can’t afford to alienate anybody, & he has nonetheless managed to alienate everybody. The coming months will be brutal for him & are likely to end w/his speakership destroyed in a humiliating, titanic blue wave"
