"orgs listed on Summers’ résumé disputed his involvement ... Brookings Institution, a left-leaning think tank, said Tuesday that Summers 'is not & has not been a member' of the org’s Board of Trustees, which Summers’ résumé listed him as serving on since '02."

Tomorrow is International Men's Day.
So if you're one of those dickheads who asks on International Women's Day "why isn't there an International Men's Day" then A) tomorrow is your day, mark your calendar.
B) fuck you.
That is all.

Hiding your phone from Ro Khanna because you're texting Jeffrey Epstein in the middle of a hearing.
Jeffrey Epstein appeared to text with Del. Stacey Plaskett (D-Virgin Islands) during Michael Cohen's 2019 congressional hearing and may have influenced her questions.

not enough chatter about how frequently members fly and how attacking airport capacity directly affects them in a way that cutting SNAP does not

Senate Democrats think this is the appropriate response because they begin every conflict with the assumption they will lose, and then ask “How can we end this as quickly as possible while creating the appearance of having tried to win so the base isn’t mad?”
I truly don’t know how you look at the past week and THEN decide THIS is an appropriate — let alone the right — response.
Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

About to publish something on the airplane mess. But this too is ON THE REPUBS. It is not a reason to cave. Dems, it is a time to keep standing up.

Opening the government with no concessions from GOP merely to alleviate airline cancellations - when Congress has been dragging its feet for years on chronic FAA staffing issues - is a lame ass choice.
Also, doing it while the House refuses to work is appalling.
