My parents and I went to a Chinese restaurant near the hotel we were staying at in NYC several times. Then, both TVs were on Fox News. We talked to the owner, who didn't give a damn, and we left before ordering.

When Trump admin officials get asked why a certain sector of the economy is so bad, 90% of the time their answers begin with “we inherited.” Did everyone forget what Biden inherited in Jan 2021? Or what Obama inherited in Jan 2009? When are Republicans ever responsible?

Holder: The Supreme Court is a broken institution. And it’s something that has to be part of the national conversation in ’26 and in ’28.
If there is a Democratic trifecta in 2028—and I think the possibility of that is pretty good—Supreme Court reform has to be on the table.

I've wanted to see more of this for a long time. And I'd love to know if there is any longitudinal data that could tell us whether the public has become less informed over the years.
I’ve been thinking a lot about a new kind of polling I’d like to see. We have polling that measures public opinion, which is obviously important, but I’d love to see a little more empirical work on public knowledge: what do voters know about politics and policy?

There's a plain and simple word to capture the 6–3 Supreme Court majority who say Trump's masked agents can grab people because of their skin tone or accent:
Racist.
There can be no doubt now that the majority of justices support white supremacy.

We got a hold of VA staffing numbers, which reveals that the claims by VA Secretary Collins that “we’re not cutting VA health care providers” is just untrue. The system is down by thousands of direct care providers.

Just a reminder of who Thom Tillis is:
In 2013, as N.C. House Speaker, he passed a massive voter suppression law that was struck down because it targeted Black voters "with almost surgical precision.”
In the Senate he voted against the Freedom to Vote Act and the John R. Lewis Voting Right Act.

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022.
That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations.
So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

One thing Newsom has shown is key to effectively deal with Trump & the MAGA propaganda machine: You must respond immediately & call out the lies. You can’t wait until hours/days later, then answer in a press conference, statement, scripted speech. All Dems should learn from it.

ABC News has cut ties with its senior national correspondent Terry Moran after he posted that Stephen Miller is a “world-class hater” who “eats his hate.”
Kudos to Moran for having the courage to speak the truth — and screw ABC News for not standing behind him and backing his right to free speech.
