WARREN: That's not my question. Are you refusing to tell us if you have investments in vehicles set up by Jeffrey Epstein?
KEVIN WARSH: Those assets will be sold if I'm confirmed

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.
Historic, world altering cowardice from the hollow men running the Congress.
A joint House-Senate committee on Monday approved a measure creating a new state authority with control over Memphis Shelby County Schools.
Seems to me like Trump is desperately begging Iran to sign a replica of the Obama JCPOA he tore up. All for the low low price of thousands dead, global instability, high energy prices, and a toll on ships through the once-free strait of Hormuz.
Screenshot of a tweet by Rep. Ro Khanna (@RoKhanna) praising a breakthrough in pancreatic cancer research, calling it "the best of America" and noting that lead researcher Dr. Balachandran is the son of Indian immigrants and works at Sloan Kettering. He quote-tweets Ian Weissman, DO (@DrIanWeiss...), who reports that an mRNA pancreatic cancer vaccine showed lasting results in an early trial, with nearly all responding patients still alive six years later.
Science leads to amazing breakthroughs. Immigrants lead to amazing science.
The Justice Department demanded Wayne County, Michigan turn over every single ballot, receipt, and envelope from the 2024 election. Wayne County is Detroit the largest Democratic county in the state.
NC5: “The ACLU of Tennessee is urging @GovBillLee to veto legislation that will likely require doctors to report on transgender related healthcare, arguing it would invade medical privacy and discourage access to care.”

DOJ demanded voter files from all 50 states.
DOJ sued 31 states for refusing their demand.
My law firm intervened to protect voters in those cases.
DOJ is now 0-5.
My firm is 5-0.
Lesson: When we fight we win.
Merkley to Vought: "I think perhaps the reason you didn't want to include deficit numbers is you didn't want to draw attention to the fact we're in a situation where we're not in a major recession, and yet we're continuing to drive this nation deeper and deeper into debt."
Here’s the thing—especially on April 15: cutting the IRS isn't some abstract budget trim. It's a tax cut delivered through weaker enforcement. And it mostly goes to people with the most scope to hide income.
Can confirm
WARREN: I want to understand how slashing healthcare for families so Meta gets a $3b tax cut is a 'really good outcome for the American public'
IRS CEO BISIGNANO: I don't see the two as correlated
W: Those tax cuts were paid for by pushing people off their healthcare. Did you not follow that?
Xavier Becerra addresses single-payer healthcare in California in a way I can appreciate. He talks about the logistics of making it happen.
He says it won’t be easy, but it can be done.
I respect that. Too many politicians make it sound easy, then drop it once they’re elected. Becerra gets it.
But keep telling us @govbilllee’s private school vouchers aren’t coupons for the wealthy. @WilliamLamberth
‼️Election administrators in Maricopa County, Arizona ordered staff to grant federal agents sweeping, unmonitored access to election facilities — including instructions not to record their actions — according to newly released emails. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

BREAKING: A federal judge ordered new evidence to be turned over in a lawsuit seeking details on a secret "voter data agreement" between DOGE and election deniers.
This marks the first ruling forcing the faux-agency to disclose what happened behind the scenes.
A political action committee set up to support Sen. Marsha Blackburn’s effort to become Tennessee’s next governor received a $1 million donation from TikTok investor Jeff Yass. Reported by @friedmanadam5.bsky.social.
Turned on NBC. They talked about “President tipping a DoorDash driver $100”.
This woman participated in GOP ads before playing other roles. There is no DoorDash deliveries to the Oval Office. Please exercise proper judgement when consuming news.
Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice.
It doesn't have to be this way.
Swalwell has announced his resignation from Congress. It’s impossible not to ask why Texas Republican Tony Gonzales hasn’t done the same. And why the GOP doesn’t insist the Epstein files, which repeatedly mention the head of their party, be fully released.
This argument is utter bullshit -- Mamdani came to America with his family at the age of seven -- but it's especially rich coming from this older, somehow even dumber clone of Benny Johnson because that's Andy Ogles, a congressman who has endlessly lied about his own past.
Leo: "The message of the church, the message of the gospel -- blessed are the peacemakers. I do not look at my role as being political. I don't want to get into a debate with him. I don't think the message of the gospel is meant to be abused in the way that some people are doing."
ICYMI — Paul Rose & Tennessee Republicans just did Israel’s bidding, passing a useless, bizarre bill to dictate how Tennessee refers to the West Bank.
(Rose almost punched Kanew for asking why)

Hey JD Vance pls come campaign with @MarshaBlackburn and work your magic in her race too
This is my Congressman, unfortunately
“Why did you attack the Pope?”
Trump: “I don’t think he’s doing a very good job.” 🤷🏼
Trump attacks the Pope in a Truth Social rant, calling him “weak” and attacking his views on foreign policy, Iran, and even his legitimacy as pontiff—claiming he wouldn’t be Pope if Trump weren’t president.
