Dear senators who think you can’t do anything,
Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT.

How did Trump pull the "tariffs" out (of his ass)?
They aren't tariffs at all. He took the ratio (US to X trade deficit)/(X to US export) when there is one and called that the fractional tariff on US goods per James Surowiecki on X. Charged 10% if there was no imbalance.

Wow. Pelosi coming out HARD against a yes vote, and hard against Schumer's argument specifically.
She doesn't mention cloture specifically. But I think it's clear what Pelosi is saying here. And I think her saying it is a pretty big deal.

Trump Fires Joint Chiefs Chairman Amid Flurry of Dismissals at Pentagon
The decision to fire Gen. Charles Q. Brown Jr., a four-star fighter pilot, upends a tradition in which the Joint Chiefs chairman traditionally remains in place as administrations change.
