Re-reading The Tortilla Curtain by TC Boyle.

It feels strangely appropriate for these days.

Elegant madman poetry.

GOV. WALZ: “This is not both sides. This is owned by Republicans. Dems are willing to come back and protect what passed, not let an authoritarian president do whatever he wants… people will be lined up to get food and we’re talking about a damn ballroom? DON’T LOSE THE PLOT.”

This morning we dropped off 5,000+ petition signatures in Springfield, nearly 5x what we needed to get on the ballot.

IL-09 is ready for change, and we couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you.

See you on the ballot on March 17.

Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."
How much a lb for that exotic Vegetable?
This is such an important read to share.
“If only these fretful Republicans belonged to some sort of governmental body that had the ability to limit or even stop these troublesome actions. One could image, say, a separate legislative body to check the executive, control spending & vet unfit nominees.” open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

1. Last week, there were 3 Trump corruption scandals in 4 days that would define any other presidency.

Most people are probably not even AWARE of all three scandals.

Congress is rapidly proving itself irrelevant, and the only person who benefits from that is Donald Trump.
I think you just completely summed up all of our individual, daily anger and astonishment and pain.

Destined to Collapse.

This is the most obscenely wealthy, grotesquely cruel, offensively under qualified and incompetent, outrageously & blatantly corrupt, callously indifferent, brazenly self-serving, shamelessly deceitful administration in our country’s history. A hollow gold-plated autocracy destined to collapse.
Facts matter
You can literally watch Reagan’s words side-by-side with Canada’s ad.

They didn’t misrepresent anything.

Trump is lying. Again. As usual.

"In July, three analysts who worked in INR’s Russia-Eurasia group were fired. Another analyst resigned."
In my experience, State Department's INR is the best of US intelligence. Therefore, Trump had them sacked.
Trump is an enemy of the US.

Something unexpected happened at the @meidascanada.ca town hall in Victoria.
A group of young Afghan girls who escaped the Taliban showed up and asked to speak. They told their story of the fight for education and the need for Canada to help.
We will be sharing their story.

I haven’t seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.
Quite bribey.

“We’re not his opponent on this,” he said. “We’re an ally … but we need to be able to have a voice on it as a co-equal branch.”

The only way Congress can actually be co-equal is if they use their checks and balances. The institution of the Congress depends on impeaching a criminal president
Million $ question right there.
And the press didn’t ask “And why are you and your Republican colleagues not apoplectic now?”…..
