Two things can be—and are—true

1. Trump dehumanizing female journalists is indefensible and journalists calling him out are rightfully outraged to demand decency.

2. MANY of those same outraged journalists are STILL silent as Netanyahu used US bombs to kill 255 journalists in Gaza. It's hypocrisy.

Trump commuted the 7‑year prison sentence of a private equity executive who was convicted of a $1.6 billion scheme to defraud thousands of investors in a Ponzi scheme. David Gentile joins the long list of politically connected thugs who are walking free thanks to Trump.

Senator Kelly is correct.

Plus a Public Service Announcement:

KEY section of Department of Defense's Law of War Manual is 18.3.2.1.

The VERY rule on the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders gives as its paradigmatic example of what is "clearly illegal:
"orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

Van Hollen: "It's either murder from the first strike if their whole theory is wrong, and I think the weight of the legal opinion is they've concocted this ridiculous legal theory. But even if you accept it, then it is a war crime. I do believe the secretary of defense should be held accountable"

To recap—Trump pardoned Juan Orlando Hernández, who was convicted of receiving millions in bribes & partnering with cocaine traffickers to flood American streets with drugs, but to protect American streets from being flooded with drugs, he has to mass murder innocent fisherman with impunity.

Got it

In the Oval Office Mamdani made clear the Israeli Govt is committing genocide, with US Govt funding, while standing next to Trump & calling him fascist, & while staying on his message of affordability

Zohran is leading how he campaigned—with authenticity. That's how you build trust & grow movements

Every liberal democratic voter should see the way the Mamdani and Trump spoke and how Mamdani, never having to compromise his positions, was able to get Trump to agree with him.

Thats what left-wing populism can do and it’s the direction the Democratic Party must go.

Mamdani: Today is a day that we have been dreaming of for more than a year. I'm so thankful to the more than 100,000 volunteers who have brought us to this point. We are on the brink of making history. On the brink of saying goodbye to politics of the past and to usher in a new era in this city.

The Eastern Shore isn’t just the road to Ocean City. It’s diverse, resilient, and politically powerful. And when the Shore gets written off, we all lose.

Read my latest post on Substack about the redistricting fight
Always the Outhouse, Never the En Suite
Maryland politics that leaves out the Eastern Shore is how we lose it all.

Adams has railed against vaccines, and science in general, for many years. Kennedy cut funding for promising work including mRNA vaccines for prostate cancer. Just, the audacity here.

Hit with higher insurance premiums? Trump is making them even higher.

Forced into bankruptcy by medical debt? Trump doesn’t care.

Worried that’ll impact your credit score? Trump wants it to.

Cost to fund SNAP and keep 42 million people from starving:

$100 billion

Cost of lost revenue due to tax cuts for the richest Americans in the top 1%:

$100 billion

One is decried as "welfare." One is not.

Why?

Your daily reminder that Trump absolutely can fund SNAP through contingency funds.

He absolutely can prevent 42 million Americans — including 20 million children — from going hungry next month.

He is choosing not to. Don’t let him lie his way out of this.

The CEO said that higher prices from inflation and the expected problem of cutting food stamp funding are creating a “tough environment” for US shoppers.

The White House fired all 6 members of the Commission of Fine Arts - the independent agency that would review Trump's construction projects.

There’s no one Trump won’t fire to get away with tearing down the White House East Wing to build his tacky corporate-sponsored ballroom.
