A win! Thanks to everyone who spoke out. Following public backlash, Mike Lee backtracked on the National Parks proposal, which would have rescinded legislation protecting national parks and maintaining their boundaries as federal lands.

Dear Billionaires,

I’m sure you worked very hard, on the backs of your workers, to get morbidly rich.

Now please do the rest of us a fucking favor: stay out of politics and let the other 99.9% fix this nation and have a future.

Thank you.

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

He was a man interested in the arts, culture, education, language, history... It is beyond comprehension that the president has sought to rename this great memorial.

C’mon my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny... It’s downright weird.

Hope you all boycotted 47’s speech or talk or vent or whatever it was tonight. There’s no point in listening to him anyway since he can’t tell the truth and lives in his own reality! The damage to clean up in the WH grows by the day as 47 hangs gold on walls and vandalizes the Hall of Presidents.

Warnock: He's got a lot of nerve saying that I'm using faith to divide people. This is a man who literally had protesters gassed and beaten down so he could hold up a bible in front of a church.

I am angry. And I'm tired of being angry. I'm angry at the people doing this, and I'm still angry at the people who voted for it. Being angry all the time is bad for my mental and physical health, and it's ruining my normally sunny disposition.
Walking around the #NIH hospital and seeing all kinds of patients getting care here: kids in wheelchairs, adults in masks and chemo caps.

And all of this is being cut down, undermined, and destroyed by Trump. It should make us all incredibly angry.

Urgent update.

Our bipartisan petition to force a vote on a straightforward extension of the Affordable Care Act tax credits now has 218 signatures.

Mike Johnson should bring the bill to the floor immediately.

Junk Fees: the word of the day. We took on Greystar for hiding junk fees and pushing rent hikes, and won $1M for Colorado. I’ll keep holding corporate landlords accountable so renters get a fair deal. #affordablehousing #philforgovernor #copolitics

Remember all the lame excuses the made up for Trump's mocking of a journalist TEN YEARS AGO? Republicans preyed our tendency to see the best in people, and to doubt the presence of evil.

I think it's a good time to revisit that image because there is no doubt now what he meant.

In my furious revulsion at what Trump said about Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele, I missed that it was Michele who took the flattering cover photo of Trump for his book, The Art of the Deal. Impossibly, this makes his reaction even worse.

MORE from Jack Smith:

"I made my decisions in the investigation without regard to President Trump's political association, activities, beliefs, or candidacy ... We took actions based on what the facts and the law required—the very lesson I learned early in my career as a prosecutor."
BREAKING on MS NOW:

Jack Smith, in his opening statement to House Judiciary, says:

"Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election and to prevent the lawful transfer of power."

The GOP’s health care “plan” does nothing for millions who will see their health insurance premiums go through the roof in January. Facing a choice between seeing the doctor and paying your rent is appalling but that’s life in Trump’s America.
