Trump chose to attend a Saudi-sponsored golf tournament rather than welcome home the remains of four soldiers. The vice president didn’t attended either. They don’t even pretend to care about service members.

This is a good idea. A daily Democratic press conference with a consistent, skilled spokesperson who covers two things:
1. What DOGE and the Trump administration did to the American people today
2. What Democrats are doing in response

I firmly believe @petebuttigieg.bsky.social should lead a daily press conference. We are in desperate need of simple, unified messaging
Waging a procedural war and an information war will at least delay — and possibly prevent — an actual war. I don't get why Democratic leaders don't see the necessity here.

Jon Stewart nails it: Republicans want Californians to suffer for partisan politics—but only when blue states are hurting. California pays more in federal taxes than 30 red states combined, but they won’t admit it.

Jeff Bezos announcing that he's marrying his next wife, Lauren Sanchez, in a lavish $600m ceremony. They live in Florida. $600m would cover 2 years of FL k-12 free lunch programs. Last year the state discontinued the office that helped schools file for free lunches.
