Q: "How do you respond to Governor Newsom?"
Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."

Mehrere Länder bieten Trump Paroli und klagen bei der Welthandelsorganisation gegen die US-Zölle. Das ist richtig, die Welt darf sich das Trump-Diktat nicht gefallen lassen. Wir haben deshalb den Antrag in die Wirtschaftskommission eingebracht, dass sich die Schweiz den Klagen anschliesst. (1/2)

Paris hat seine Luftqualität radikal verbessert. Wie? Mit "Transitverboten, verengten Strassen, höheren Parkgebühren für SUV, weniger Parkplätzen [...] Dafür gab es 1400 Kilometer zusätzliche Velowege, mehr Fussgängerzonen, mehr Grün überall."

Alle Mühe zahlt sich aus: Die Pariser Luftqualität ist jetzt spektakulär besser
Neue Statistiken zeigen, dass die radikal grüne Stadtpolitik die Luftverschmutzung in Paris drastisch reduziert – eine mirakulöse Metamorphose.

Sometimes, when he fails badly enough, Trump can be forced to do the thing he says he never does: back down.
Today is just one more turn on the roller coaster - but it is more evidence of why we can't give up or let up.

Wie umgehen mit dem Zoll-Schock? Die SP-Spitze verlangt vom Bundesrat Haltung gegen das «neofaschistische US-Regime» – und ein engeres Zusammenrücken mit Europa.

Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too?

My YES vote is *not* an endorsement of this deeply flawed CR.
My YES vote is 💯 about refusing to shut our government down.
I refuse to punish working families and plunge millions of Americans into chaos.
I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever vote to shut our government down.
