I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.
He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

Ugh, political donation platforms…It's like:
You buy one box of Thin Mints from your local scout—and suddenly the entire Girl Scout supply chain is in your living room. Leadership, bakers, mint farmers, tractor reps…all shouting like we’ve been close for years. 1/3

What a sad day for the people of this country.
I cannot get past this. The Supreme Court has now allowed the President to make the cost of arriving on our shores to seek a better life, being disappeared into a war-torn country.
Tricia McLaughlin, a spokesperson for DHS said: “These sickos will be in South Sudan by Independence Day.”’

• Taxes without our consent (Tariffs)
• Corrupt the rule of law
• Impair due process
• Using the military improperly
• Threaten the judiciary

Congrats to Lisa Murkowski on voting for a bill that she herself admitted was not ready in hopes that the House would change it. Now it’ll become law. She had the power to stop it, and instead chose to become complicit. That’s her legacy.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

This is an astoundingly good interview. The LA Port Director explains very clearly how profoundly trade is coming to a screeching halt. This summer will be tough.
Is this bad? I'm no international shipping expert, but this sounds bad.

A really good sign that it's time to replace an incumbent politician:
Stephen Lynch, aiming to be top Dem on the Oversight Cmte, blew up at a constituent who asked him to oppose the GOP.
"I get to decide that. I get to decide that. I get to decide that. I'm elected. I get to decide that. You wanna decide that? You need to run for Congress, okay? I get to decide that"
