DOJ is refusing to answer!!!
Boasberg gets the DOJ to confirm the 5 individual named plaintiffs, which were the subject of his first TRO, are still here.
Boasberg asks "How many planes departed the US at any point on Saturday carrying any people being deported solely on the basis of the proclamation."

Leadership is doubling down, but GOP members are getting nervous about the budget’s extreme unpopularity.
You can call your Representative now at 202-224-3121.

Looks like tomorrow will bring votes on a Republican plan to fund tax cuts for the rich by slashing Medicaid.
So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.

Trump’s betrayal of Americans:
He promised not to cut Medicaid—now he’s backing a House plan that slashes $880 billion from it. All to fund $4.5 trillion in tax cuts for the rich. He doesn’t care if families drown in debt, as long as he & his billionaire buddies get richer.
Don’t Cut My Medicaid!

Imagine saying this about an agency that has helped millions of people around the world avoid malaria, obtain clean water, and gain access to food & health care. Especially when you’re the world’s richest man & your net worth is something like 20 times this agency’s annual budget. What a foul soul.

JFK on why he founded USAID.
“The economic collapse of those free but less-developed nations which now stand poised between sustained growth and economic chaos would be disastrous to our national security, harmful to our comparative prosperity and offensive to our conscience”.

I am begging every Democratic committee, PAC, and candidate to get control of your damn email program right now and stop sending tone deaf fundraising emails that have nothing to do with what's happening. Stop listening to focus groups from a month ago. Stop the 2 approved talking points.

Starting an avoidable trade war is not strength. It’s weakness.
Strength would be able to fix this without pouting and throwing a fit. Trump is still a child, a weak, scared, whiney, child

So let’s see, Trump has been President for a week and now we are fighting with Canada, Greenland, Mexico, Denmark, Panama, Colombia, and pretty much the entire EU.
It does seem that Viktor Orban and Netanyahu now likes us more though, so there’s that.

A lot of folks didn’t learn this lesson during Trump’s first term, apparently:
Focus on what he does, not what he says.
He’s going to say a lot of things, but those things are meant to distract you from what he’s doing.
