Q: "How do you respond to Governor Newsom?"
Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."

“This isn’t a dialogue—it’s a war. They’re gambling that you won’t realize this until it’s too late. If freedom is important to you, if you care about all the people marked for death and deportation, start taking action.” 🧵
If we succeed in blocking their hideous plans, they will accuse us of breaking off dialogue, of violating their free speech. They will try to lure us back into conversation, playing for time until they need no more stratagems to keep us passive while they establish tyranny.
This is not a dialogue.
This is not a dialogue.
This Is Not a Dialogue
You’re not in a dialogue—you’re in a power struggle. How the rhetoric of free speech is leveraged to create space for the far right to organize violent actions, and how else to understand freedom.

It always boggles my mind that I, a journalist, am expressly forbidden from trading stocks, but members of Congress, with vastly greater knowledge of market-moving news, are allowed to profit by front-running markets, and so may profit by in essence stealing from the public they represent.

💥 "90 day delay except China" was leaked 1 day before the actual announcement. This is the biggest insider trading scheme in history.

Donald Trump is truly an inspiration and role model to young people who aspire to public service AND are also committed to exploring a rewarding career in public corruption, sexual assault, sedition, and a litany of other crimes.

Zooey is doing WORK in Montana and teaching everyone several lessons:
1) You can stand on your values as a Democrat and not harm trans people.
2) Doing so can actually move hearts and minds in a traditionally conservative state.
3) There is value in having representation in our halls of power.

Two more wins for trans people in Montana!
(1) A bill creating a new "indecent exposure" crime for trans people was amended to remove the anti-trans provision.
(2) A bill allowing detransitoners to sue their doctor was amended to only be valid if the doctors didn't follow medical best practices.

Many Donald Trump supporters “claimed that this was the plan all along, suggesting that dropping the tariffs against the rest of the world would only further isolate Beijing,” but Trump himself gave away the game, @jonlemire.bsky.social and @russellberman.bsky.social write:
The Art of the Retreat
Trump’s abrupt pivot from his planned global trade war was touted by allies as grand strategy. The president’s own words suggested otherwise.

You lost your 401k... and did Trump make money doing it?
He posted "THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!!" just hours before pausing the tariffs. It's time for everyone to ask House Republicans why they aren't fighting for an investigation into this.

I must have missed the chapter in “The Art of the Deal” when the pullback erases prior gains.
Don’t be fooled.
Yesterday’s over-reaction exuberance is giving way to (1) loss-limiting sell offs, & (2) realization that remaining #TrumpTariffs are still devastating to the economy.

That sound you hear are thousands of investors waking up hungover, realizing that the markets are now a pump and dump scheme for Trump and his allies.
They’ve lost all rationality.
A couple words from Trump sends them spiraling in either direction.

The takeaway here is that they'd rather let your kids go hungry than let trans kids be themselves
1. Trump has officially defunded school lunches in Maine for kids and disabled adults because of transgender people.
Trump is holding the funds hostage and will allow kids to go hungry unless Maine discriminates.

I am saying it again - I absolutely refuse to fly out of DCA. That airport is a powder keg, as someone who flies regularly. I made the decision after the last plane crash, but the airport has a long history of near misses like this.

This is important - GOP members of Congress own this crash as much as Trump.
House and Senate seats will be up for election in 2026. We cannot let any of those enablers get a free pass because we are focused on Trump.
Every Republican is to blame.
