Convo with my friend from Hungary tonight who left after Orban’s election.
She said “your head will spin with all the wild stuff they try to pull, new things every day, but don’t take your eyes off the money. It’s all about the money, and what they’re stealing, and for whom.”
She said “your head will spin with all the wild stuff they try to pull, new things every day, but don’t take your eyes off the money. It’s all about the money, and what they’re stealing, and for whom.”
I’ve been trying to keep this post in the forefront of my mind whenever they pull wild stuff. It helps keep me focused. Writing more postcards today.

Very important vote. It makes repealing ICE surge funding the mainstream position in the party, with bipartisan support.
👀 Every Senate Democrat + Collins and Murkowski just voted for the Bernie Sanders amendment to repeal the $75 billion in additional ICE funding under Trump’s “big beautiful bill.” The measure failed 49-51.

Trump’s Commerce Secretary brought his teenage kids to Epstein’s island after Epstein pleaded guilty to soliciting sex with minors. The way he lists the kids’ ages is creepy af.
But the new Epstein files show a series of subsequent interactions. That included this email from Lutnick about bringing his family and others to visit Epstein at his private island, Little St. James.

Utah voters have the power to refer a piece of legislation to the ballot and then reject it. They can do that here. They should!
The Utah Senate has passed a bill that would expand the state supreme court by 2 seats (to be filled by the GOP governor).
This comes as local conservatives are angry about judicial decisions in Utah, inc. one that safeguarded direct democracy in 2024 & one that struck down their gerrymander.

Just going to note, yet again, that our entire National Conversation™️ about Congress & ICE is about What Democrats Must Do, while the actual people in Congress - all of whom are Republicans - who can really Do Something are getting Total Free Passes from the media & the online commentariat. Focus.
I'm also going to keep banging the drum that in Washington could end almost all of this immediately, by fulfilling their oaths & caucusing with the Democrats, & we should stop giving them every day & laser focus on that:
