Marge gets it

Sen. Elizabeth Warren asks Trump Fed pick Kevin Warsh if he has investments tied to the Trump family. He won't answer directly.

Good morning to everyone who voted for Kamala Harris.

ELIZABETH WARREN: Did Donald Trump lose the 2020 election?

KEVIN WARSH: Uhm, we try to keep politics if I'm confirmed out of the Federal Reserve

WARREN: I'm just asking a factual question

WARSH: I believe this body certified the election

WARREN: That's not the question I'm asking

Trump Fed pick Kevin Warsh won't say if Trump lost the 2020 election (he did).

Give women their rights back. Roe v. Wade must be codified into law. This roller coaster ride of politicians using women's rights against them must end. I will not vote for anyone, man or woman who doesn't have this on their list of priorities.
What's yours?

Sen. Jack Reed to Warsh as he dodges questions about divesting his assets: "Excuse me. I must commend you on the way you can circularly go around questions and not answer them. It's a skill. Unfortunately it's not a good skill for the chairman of the Fed."

Warsh may be a reasonable guy and capable economist just playing a role here. But if integrity and independence are qualities we value in a Fed Chief, he does not have them.

Every nominee who dodges this question tells us that they have no meaningful commitment to American democracy.

This guy was installed by president trump

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

VAN HOLLEN: If the central bank were to cut rates, that would typically push prices up, right?

WARSH: Unlike many of my colleagues, I don't believe I should be previewing what a future decision might be

VAN HOLLEN: I'm not asking you that. Most economists would agree that would dive up prices

As Trump’s lies get more egregious (and repetitive) I have at least noticed fewer mouth-breathing bootlickers willing to defend him in my comments.

And the administration is leaking about how he’s hurting negotiations and how they’re keeping him on the sidelines.

I’ll call that progress.

Say Hi 👋 to these Resisters looking to meet you! Vet, F&R. Ty!💙

I hope the takeover of InfoWars by @theonion.com and @timheidecker.bsky.social that resulted from the bankruptcy brought on by Alex Jones’ evil attacks on the victims of Sandy Hook brings you as much joy as it does me.

If you believe a war criminal on the run from the ICC and a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist and financial fraudster (who is most likely also a pedophile) are waging a moral and just war in the Middle East right now, I have some bad news for you.

You’re an idiot.

I’m reading this lawsuit Kash filed against The Atlantic. I’m struggling to find where they were wrong.

FLASH: Kash Patel files $250 million defamation suit against The Atlantic

A lengthy and potentially UGLY discovery phase looks

Just filed ===>

I swear I think Kegseth has Looner on Signal. She’s been going hard on Vance’s boy Driscoll.

Navarro puts Vance in his place.

Leonard Leo, Opus Dei and the Radical Catholic Takeover of the Supreme Court Leonard Leo has put five justices on the Supreme Court: Amy Coney Barrett, Brett Kavanaugh, Neil Gorsuch, Sam Alito, and John Roberts.

How interesting that super right wing ardent Catholic (and all around hideous dangerous person) Leonard Leo has been suspiciously quiet on Trump and Vance's attacks on Pope Leo.

“Trump appears to have further complicated the negotiations and, thus, Vance’s task.

“The president spent much of the weekend proclaiming that Iran had agreed to all of his demands and expressing optimism that a deal was close.

“Iranian leaders have denied his claims.”

Peter Thiel's Secret Political Network Is Already Planning Life After Trump When these people say liberal democracy has failed, they are not talking about the left. They are talking about the American ‘experiment’ itself.

If you read nothing else today, read this about how Rockbridge is creating the infrastructure of a system that destroys democracy. "Rockbridge is not waiting for Vance to become popular. They are building a country in which popularity matters less than infrastructure." #BlueCrew

Still can't believe Vance said this:
..."It would be best for the Vatican to stick to matters of morality, to stick to matters of what is going on in the Catholic church.."

You bombed a f***ing elementary school killing 108-120 children and you're telling the Pope to "stick to matters of morality?"

Lemme get this straight…

I bought things from overseas.

I had to pay tariffs directly to companies like DHL before my items were delivered.

And they get the refund, not me?

Ridiculous.

INDEPENDENT: “Trump said if Iran officials fail to make a deal with 🇺🇸 the whole country is going to get blown up” www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

CBS: “Iran may not take part in talks with U.S. representatives in Pakistan” www.cbsnews.com/live-updates...

The rich are getting richer, while everyone else is left in the dirt.

While the ultra-rich get even richer, families are getting squeezed by a rigged economy.

It's time for the government to stop listening to the richest of the rich and start working for working people.

As I argue in this piece, Trump has transformed the presidency into a giant Bribe Delivery System.

Who is the person in the Trump admin who is supposed to be the adult in the room to make sure senior Trump appointees don’t do dumb shit like this? Susie Wiles? Scavino? Anyone? Bueller? bsky.app/profile/macf...

Holy shit, it wasn’t your imagination.

Look at this poll.

New Gudelunas Strategies numbers show Xavier Becerra surging, the same momentum we’ve been seeing online.

Not a top-tier poll, but still, the direction is clear: Becerra is rising fast after Swalwell dropped out.

Keep the polls coming!
