That Pritzker press conference was... surreal, and I think marks a significant moment of escalation in the constitutional omni-crisis. This was the governor of a state saying plainly the Union itself is being torn apart and his state is being militarily invaded by an authoritarian regime.
“Why can’t we get these ants under control?” I wonder to myself as a sprinkle a half-eaten bag of cheez-its on the ground for the birds.

A National Weather Service office in Kentucky was scrambling to cover the overnight forecast on Friday as severe storms moved through much of the eastern U.S.

Hegseth needs to be fired.
The intel he shared via Signal, including to his wife, was sent to him on a secure channel.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!
MAJOR Victory in Montana!
Bill that would criminalize parents with felony child endangerment DIES in Montana after 15 Republicans cross party lines.
The bill would have criminalized even parents of trans kids driving through the state.
It died after nonbinary rep Howell delivered a strong speech.
"You have to throw trans people under the bus to win elections as a Democrat, trans political ads work, the public is reacting to trans people poorly"

Final remarks from Senator Cory Booker’s record breaking speech on the senate floor
I just ate a mini KitKat that was solid chocolate all the way through. No wafer at all. Is that good luck or bad luck? Time will tell.
I feel like it’s so on brand for Cory Booker to talk for 24 hours and decide he’s got more to say. 🐐
How it started // how it's going
If Cory Booker makes it another 4 hours he will break the record for longest filibuster. There’s a kind of poetic irony that the record he’d break is held by Strom Thurmond who was filibustering against the Civil Rights Act of 1957.
We just got new data: Our trade partners bought nearly $27 billion in food and other products last year.
That’s a massive contribution to Minnesotans who work in our agriculture, mining, and manufacturing industries, and it’s why we can’t risk trade wars with our closest allies.

We claim that Dems need to reach out to red areas and we refuse to do it ourselves.
If we refuse to show compassion for people who are suffering because they fell for a lie, were sucked into a cult, or they voted the way their church said was the only moral way… we will only prove that their side was right about us. We can be better. We can act better even if we don’t feel it.
