I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

Keep it up Portland! Don’t fall for his rhetoric
Taken just a few minutes ago outside the ICE facility in Portland that Trump claims is under siege. My message to Donald Trump is this: we don’t need you here. Stay the hell out of our city.

Aaaand this is why Bondi has dismantled the public corruption unit at DOJ. It’s now pay to play
Border Czar Tom Homan was caught by the FBI accepting bribes - on camera - to deliver government contracts in exchange for $50,000 in cash.
Pam Bondi knew.
Kash Patel knew.
Emil Bove knew.
And they made the investigation go away.
A corrupt attempt to conceal brazen graft.

Can blue states get us vaccines that are covered by insurance?
Blue state health officials can create a group similar to AG's association. Or Govs can jointly release a statement committing to vaccine science.
That would be powerful: Blue states collectively standing up for public health while Trump/RFK destroy it.

I am a strong supporter of building a blue state network where we are as independent as we can possibly be from needing goods and service from any red state.
Every Dem governor and blue state should be building parallel institutions right now.
There’s no excuse for any blue state to not have vaccine and abortion pill/birth control stockpiles to survive the next 5-10 years.

The Trump administration has taken its anti-diversity agenda to such extremes that it's killing good infrastructure projects - including roadway safety improvements that I worked on with congressional Republicans - just because they went to disadvantaged areas.
