I helped build the vetting system they’re blaming. We are not seeing imported extremism. We are seeing American-made radicalization, created by the Trump policies that claim to “fix it.”

The shutdown is ultimately a legislative negotiation about a budget.
Hard to resolve it when the controlling party in one part of Congress refuses to negotiate, will not re-open the House, is not in DC.

Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) actually told the press that Democrats would be the ones hurt most by losing SNAP.
To be fair, since he lives in Florida instead of the state he represents, maybe he doesn’t realize 752,000 Alabamians rely on SNAP—14.6% of the state’s population.

Chris Christie: “Thie is no longer, the Department of Justice, is no longer the premier prosecuting office in America. What it is now is a capo regime who goes out and executes hits when directed by the Don to do so. That’s what it is.”

This seems like a VERY BIG rebuke of Trump’s use of the alien enemies act 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
Just before 1 a.m., #SCOTUS stepped back into the Alien Enemy Act litigation with a (remarkable) ruling that suggests, among other things, that a majority of the justices is tiring of the Trump administration’s Calvinball.

I don't normally watch CNBC -- was this Sara Eisen person a visitor on a tour who was selected for airtime in some kind of contest?
Because I can't imagine someone this deeply misinformed about basic facts is employed as a news anchor.

On CNBC today, Elizabeth Warren had to explain to anchor Sara Eisen that Congress can in fact take away Trump's tariffs authority, and also that America is not ruled by a king who can make laws by decree.
