Just to be clear, a Utah judge didn’t throw out the GOP’s biased new map because of a “partisan opinion.” Utah voters approved redistricting standards. The GOP ignored them. The map violated the voter-approved rules, that’s why it was rejected.

Voters > politicians.

So Trump says he has to “bring in” foreign talent because American workers don’t have it. I also notice he says “No YOU don’t have it, instead of WE, Americas President is a literal foreign agent

This likely won’t be the last intelligence sharing suspension we see over this - based on the publicly available evidence, these strikes don’t come close to meeting the threshold for deadly force.

Saying you inadvertently backed the US into a “National Security Event” isn’t the flex he thinks it is.
Oh, so he totally stole the money

Very bad.
Every one of Trump’s 27 judicial nominees refused to say Trump lost in 2020. They all dodged with the same line: "President Biden was certified."

Josh Orton: "These were political loyalty tests. If they told the truth, Trump would pull their nominations."

19 now have federal lifetime seats.

My wife and I pay for life insurance even though we have never died. I pay for fire insurance even though my house has never burned down. That's not because we want to throw money at insurance companies. It's because THAT'S HOW INSURANCE WORKS.

Sanders: That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

seems to me that those democrats inclined not to fight perceive themselves as living through a somewhat ordinary cycle of presidential overreach and backlash and not something much more significant and dangerous

Pardoning your co-conspirators to own the libs!

Most of their charges are state charges, so this doesn’t actually help them. It’s gross, but it doesn’t really move the needle.

Absolutely correct
American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength.

Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans.

The American people need more from their leaders.

Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social, I'm no expert on cognitive illnesses, but it feels a bit detached from reality for a sitting POTUS to forget that he was in power during an attack on the U.S. Capitol, doesn't it? Do you know anyone in journalism with experience covering dementia-like symptoms?
