I think the Greenland threat is a troll. I think.

But it would sure be nice for some senators and GOP house members to speak up now and make it clear that an attack on a nato ally would lead to removal from office

I’m fascinated by 40+ year olds who come to concerts and just talk the whole way through.

Dude sitting behind me taking very loudly so I ask him to lower his chattiness beneath the music. He goes, “relax dude it’s a concert.” And I said, “yes. We came to listen to music and not you.”

People suck

On that last post: I genuinely cannot think of any good-faith reason to bar international adoptions from those 39 countries. Under this new ban, consulates will refuse adoption visas for any baby from Cuba, Haiti, Venezuela, Nigeria, or any of the 39 other countries.

NRSC v. FEC, happening now: Justice Alito asks who is helped and who is hurt by party coordinated spending limits. That's an important policy question, but it's for Congress to consider, not the courts! It does not weigh on constitutional analysis under the First Amendment.

Mike Johnson is big mad that we forced through a petition and forced a vote on releasing the Epstein files.

So let’s do it again. This time to restore the ACA credits he stole from us:

Ohhhhmygod!!! Look how many people are supporting down-ballot Democratic nominees in Missouri. This is just within the last few weeks.

We are taking the fight to them.

Scroll through the list for a little balm for your soul. ❤️
Friends, I'm speechless. In just the last two weeks, we've had HUNDREDS of people join Blue MO.

When I started Blue MO in 2017, I dreamed of what we could do with a grassroots community of people supporting nominees throughout the state.

Just goes to show.

Dreams can come true.
Friend, we are blown away – the last 16 posts of new members are just the folks who have joined ... IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS.

Blue Missouri is a movement with momentum.

So why does it matter?

What are these folks doing that's so special? Glad you asked!

This is a remarkable article. Federal judges are increasingly speaking out against SCOTUS’s approach to the shadow docket. This isn't typical & underscores the impossible position for lower courts when SCOTUS makes new law on its emergency docket – especially when it doesn’t explain its rulings. /1
🚨EXCLUSIVE:

Federal judges tell NBC News the Supreme Court has got to do a better job of explaining emergency rulings, with frequent decisions in favor of Trump at least appearing to validate harsh criticism of the judiciary at a time of rising threats:
