Please read and share. But especially share with folks that might not realize how critical Section 504 is to so many people. I tried to write a simple clear explanation at the break. I hope it reaches some people who aren't already on our side. Gift link: www.startribune.com/why-are-repu...

I wonder why Musk is focused on the federal civilian workforce (4% of the budget) and not federal contractors, which account for 3x more annual spending and are more prone to waste, fraud, and abuse?

People keep saying it but Tommy Tuberville, who probably can't tie his own shoes, held up military appointees for like ten months. We are always learning that - oh, Rand Paul can just keep something from coming to the floor. I have never seen a Dem involved in any story like this.

The incredible moment yesterday when the low-income health insurance program for 72 million was shut down is a testament to the fact that incompetence and a failure to recognize the consequences of one's actions are still part of the Trump story, writes @ryanlcooper.com.

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”
