NEWS: Federal agents crashed with woman’s car, pointed guns at her, dragged her out by legs, tossed her in a minivan, held her and (eventually) let her go without charges. This as Chicagoans say the immigration blitz is out of control. (DHS blames her.)

What we saw at the No Kings rallies--joy in the community that had come together, but also alarm for the future of the country. And the significance of the success of No Kings, and what that could portend for the future.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me — not time or political circumstance — from making sure you face justice under our constitutional rule of law.

NEW: Florida and Texas asked Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk to join the ongoing lawsuit against the FDA over the abortion drug mifepristone. They say they seek to challenge the drug's APPROVAL from 2000—going way farther than wanting to end telemed prescriptions

Whoa! Rep. James Clyburn acknowledges that Leader Hakeem Jeffries was “blindsided” by Chuck Schumer’s vote and also says that House Democrats are on retreat, talking about a primary challenge. 🔥

@schumer.senate.gov isn’t up for reelection until 2028. Chuck needs to step down from leadership now.

SCHUMER: There is, absolutely

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

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 terrible CR Budget bill — written by right-wing House Republicans with no input from anybody but themselves — was passed tonight with the support of 10 Democrats.
 
An absolute failure of Democratic leadership. NOBODY in the Senate should have voted for this dangerous bill.
