Trump will negotiate with Hamas.
He will negotiate with a Russian dictator sworn to destroy America.
He will (allegedly) negotiate with India & Pakistan over a region he couldn’t find on a map.
But he will NOT negotiate with democrats to save millions of Americans from losing their healthcare.

Fun fact: Texas is a one party consent state when it comes to recording conversations, which means that you can legally record any conversation of which you are a part — and can share it with a journalist, such as me

At 2:00 a.m., Texas Republicans passed their racially gerrymandered congressional map.
At 8:00 a.m., we at the National Redistricting Foundation, with ELG sued Texas.
As everything moves at light speed, let this serve as a reminder that racial gerrymandering is illegal.

Today marks both Ukrainian National Flag Day and Kharkiv Day.
Kharkiv is a blue-and-yellow city, and it pays a brutal price to remain that way. Wounded, shelled, grieving, yet standing. It refuses to break. It refuses to fade.
It chooses to be Ukraine every single day.
