DURBIN: How can we give hope to people across the country who are suffering from so many diseases when our government is cutting back on that research?

RFK Jr: I do not know about any cuts to ALS research

D: I just read them to you!

R: I didn't know about them until you told me about them

Buttigieg: Like I love A1 steak sauce, but A1 steak sauce is not one of the most important things confronting humanity right now. Artificial intelligence is. And somebody who doesn't understand that probably should not be leading an important federal agency.

New in PN: @therickwilson.bsky.social on Marco Rubio's great debasement

"He’s not only betrayed every value he ever claimed to have, but he’s profoundly — at a level I can barely articulate — harming the country. It’s an astounding comedown for a guy who was once thought of as someone of principle"
Rick Wilson on Marco Rubio's debasement
"He’s become an obscene parody of the guy Marco Rubio once claimed to be."

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.

The Secretary is unfit to lead.

“Incredibly weird how many people around him seem to get an unhealthy pleasure from other people’s pain and humiliation. It seems abnormal. It’s weird and twisted how fixated they are on a brutal Salvadoran prison, and taking photos of people behind bars.”

Spent $300M of tax payer money at his golf courses in his first term. He's already spent $30M since his inauguration. His net worth is reportedly doubled since he became president. We are a coward nation to let this happen!

Raskin: Would it be problem for it to be standard practice to conduct sensitive foreign policy on a signal chat group? It just came out that Waltz’s team set up 20 signal group chats for crises across the world… I’m sure this will raise the question on whether he should continue in that position

And by the way, these calculations use real numbers, in which unnecessary tax cuts for greedy billionaires and big corporations count.

The government could hit its borrowing limit as soon as May if tax revenue falls short of expectations, or as late as September if debt stays on its current course.

Honored to join veterans in calling for accountability and investigations into Secretary Hegseth’s FUBAR situation where he texted secret war plans on Signal to a journalist.

We all wore the uniform. If we had texted secret war plans to a journalist, we likely would have been court-martialed.

Hegseth, Waltz and company texting war plans to a reporter on signal is just the tip of the iceberg. This whole administration is full of incompetent, inexperienced, and unqualified clowns. Our national security is compromised in ways we’re just beginning to understand.

In case you’ve forgotten how we used to treat this sort of thing…

There would be bipartisan calls for investigations

Impeachment would be a foregone conclusion

Several people would’ve resigned or been fired by end of day

Back when responsible adults were in charge, not this insane clown posse
