VARNEY: Do you have a plan to mitigate this fertilizer problem, Madame Secretary?
BROOKE ROLLINS: Yes. We have been every day now for almost 50 days having daily meetings in the White House. During the Biden years...
VARNEY: But what is the plan? You've had lots of meetings, but what is the plan?

THERE ARE BIGGER FUCKING PROBLEMS THAN FELLATING TRUMP'S EGO.
The Trump voters I’m hearing from have strange new respect for—of all people—the Secretary of Everything.
New from me @theatlantic.com: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
"The indictment is a grotesque attempt to recast white people as real victims of racism. In the DOJ’s telling, advocates who spent decades dismantling the Klan are its secret benefactors, 'enriching' themselves by secretly creating racism — something in such short supply it can only be generated."
Eric Trump's biz partner on robots they sold to the Pentagon & concerns about autonomous weapons systems: "There are situations where you would need almost no human loop, where we would have to be able to rapidly deploy these technologies & we cannot always be calling a CEO to ask for permission"
Eric Trump on his $24 million Pentagon contract for robots: "It's gonna change industry, military application, hospitality. The uses are unlimited and I think it's a very beautiful thing, but we must win that race."
Eric Trump -- the president's son -- is on Maria Bartiromo's show bragging about one of his companies landing a $24 million Pentagon contract
New in PN: "Now, as part of the project to undo Reconstruction, the DOJ hopes to take out the SPLC using the very tools it used to defeat the KKK. And along the way, they can exculpate every bigot who ever swung a tiki torch. *Those boys weren’t bad, they were just stirred up by outside agitators!*"
Tim Walz: "I was a 6th grade teacher for a while. I've been dealing with the Trump administration, so it's a flat thing."
Tim Walz on DHS officers who shot Minnesotans: "We're gonna bring them back and hold them accountable for what they did"

You know, it’s been an interesting day when a U.S. House committee sends FBI Director Kash Patel a formal inquiry asking if he’s ever blacked out from drinking, forgotten the night before, or needed morning drinks to recover.
Lawmakers are demanding answers by April 28.
"Patel would be luckiest if The Atlantic succeeds at getting this thing dismissed right away — no, really. Because if this case goes forward, he’s stuck with discovery."

Ossoff: "I have zero interest in running for president in 2028. I love serving the state of Georgia. Let's keep our eyes on the ball, folks. We need to win decisively in Georgia and every battleground state and every competitive US House district this fall."
Kash Patel turns reality on its head: "You have to ask yourself about the explosion of crime under the Biden administration, and thankfully President Trump was put in place to tamp it down."
(The crime wave that ended under Biden started during Trump's first term.)
Ossoff: "When you throw people off their health insurance and drive up their premiums and gut the Medicaid program in order to cut taxes for the wealthiest people in the country, that's also corruption. That's the corruption that's endemic in our political system and predates Trump."
Ossoff: "The financial entanglement, the way UAE money, Emirati money has compromised this WH is astonishing. It may be one of the most significant scandals in US history. Who are Trump's 2 chief negotiators? Kushner & Witkoff. The people doing diplomacy are at the same time on personal business."
Trump also misunderstood the mood of the electorate. Democratic voters were no longer primarily divided by ideological divisions. Instead, they were united by a desire to fight back against Trump’s authoritarian power grabs. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/ive-...
The legacy media will spend the next four day's celebrating Trump. Forget their stupid pocket squares. Democracy Docket spends every day holding him and the election deniers accountable. Help it grow and get the news you need by subscribing now. bit.ly/4qmEiFz
