“Expanding the Supreme Court is no different that redistricting in California and Virginia. It is a proportionate response to Republican attempts to degrade liberal democracy and move America toward a post-liberal order.”

They paused Oversight Committee hearings the minute we started getting answers about the Epstein files.
Now it’s “roundtables”: no rules, no oaths, no subpoenas.
You do the math. Because the moment accountability shows up, they shut it down. The survivors deserve better.
Okay, this will help Xavier Becerra; hopefully, Jay will be in charge of Social Media. Let's go @xavierbecerra.bsky.social
Graphic announcing an endorsement of Xavier Becerra. The top reads “Latino Caucus” with a bear logo, followed by “Endorses.” Below is a portrait of a smiling Xavier Becerra in a suit. Large text at the bottom reads “Becerra for Governor,” alongside an outline of California with a rising sun graphic.
A tremendous honor to earn the endorsement of the California Latino Legislative Caucus ahead of tonight's debate.
Eager to work alongside these leaders to ensure Latino families across our state have a real shot at the California Dream!

Senator Kaine just listed a lot of rural healthcare centers closing because of the One Big Beautiful Bill.
RFK Jr. denies that the OBBB is the reason for it.
He’s lying again.
Democratic House Rep. Frank Pallone to RFK Jr.:
"We don't have a strong president now. We have a weak president. Trump lets Russia and China walk all over us. You mentioned yourself that China's eating our lunch...
Nailed it!
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.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren asks Trump Fed pick Kevin Warsh if he has investments tied to the Trump family. He won't answer directly.
Kevin Warsh is refusing to disclose more than $100 million of his assets. Totally unprecedented.
Warsh needs to release this information now. What is he hiding?
OMFG! 💣💥💣 Kevin Warsh is married to
Ronald Lauder's daughter, Jane Lauder!

Epstein Files Federal Chair nominee, Kevin Warsh, is refusing to disclose more than $100 million of his assets."
Kevin Warsh wants to lead America’s central bank.
Why does he have more than $100 million in undisclosed assets?
Every Canadian needs to read and understand this. And then help the beautiful people of Fort Chipewyan.

“A fighter in Congress”
Freshly sworn in, Rep. @analiliafornj.bsky.social (D-N.J.) joins The Weeknight for her FIRST interview as a member of Congress. Her landslide victory cemented a key seat in New Jersey and could signal momentum for Democrats heading into the midterms.
A reminder:
#VoteYesVirginia
“It wasn’t going to be a fair fight nationally if you try steel seats in Texas, in N Carolina, and in Missouri…
What were we supposed to do, nothing? Just allow them to try to stack the deck…to steal seats? All we’re trying to do is…make the system as fair as it can possibly be.”
This should be front page news. The longer the Iran war goes on, the Trump family gets richer. Corruption at the highest level of government.
RFK Jr. told Congress last week that "the hepatitis B vaccine was not safety-tested. It had a four-day test with no placebo. We don’t know what the risk profile is."
WRONG. In fact, "It’s one of the most-studied vaccines in medicine" with "forty-plus years of accumulating evidence."
Tim Cook donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration.
He fawned over Trump and gifted him a 24-karat gold plaque (as Apple lobbied for tariff exemptions).
Apple donated to Trump’s White House ballroom.
And it removed ICE tracking apps from its stores following a demand from the DOJ.
Remember this.
More accurately, the “age of the Trump golden shower”
Jeffries: "Republicans have spent tens of million trying to convince the people of Virginia that President Obama and Gov. Spanberger are urging a 'no' vote. That's a stone cold lie. The 'no' vote position is Donald Trump's position, as is being evidenced tonight. He's been trying to hide it."
I've been a reader and member of @talkingpointsmemo.com for literally decades and it's one of the most impressive independent media operations in the country. Amazing how long it's been going, producing great reporting and analysis. Indispensable.

They needed a battering ram to get into Ka$h Patel's hotel room because he was too drunk to get up?
Patel is suing the Atlantic for $250 million for defamation after they posted an article detailing his issues with alcoholism.

Rachel Maddow sees it clearly: Trump’s erratic spiral isn’t strength it’s panic. When the tide turns, the flailing begins. 🌊
And that gives us hope. 💙

"BP’s first completely new oilfield in the Gulf since the company’s Deepwater Horizon disaster 16 years ago.
It will be deeper than Deepwater Horizon, and in riskier waters... drilling 6 miles below the sea floor, deeper than the height of Mt. Everest"

To expand on this a little: one thing that playing fast and loose with the facts lets you do as a judge is lie about the legal principles you're using to decide cases
With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars.
We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director.
Please stand by for more.
We are robbers and pirates and thieves in the daylight, pillaging and plundering AT THE SAME WILL OF THE PRESIDENT.
Hope the documentation is being collected for the war crimes trials that need to held as soon as logistically possible.
"In the first major case in which the Court granted emergency relief as a means of shaping nationwide policy, it turns out that the justice who led the charge was the one who was doing quite a bit more than calling balls and strikes."
