Pelosi: "Democrats who created Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, the ACA, all of that, are now being asked to reject that so we can give a tax cut to the rich. We're not doing it. It isn't a question of, 'let's come back together so we can discuss it.' That isn't going to happen."

Agree - just I would be at pains to communicate as widely as possible the differences - is the rider pedaling? No? Then it’s not an e-bike. Is it going above 15mph? Yes? Then it’s not a legal e-bike.

This very very very bad. I cannot stress this enough. I said that they crossed the Rubicon with arresting Ras Baraka several months ago. This is very bad and portends more bad things for regular people.

I just really wish someone in the world of punditry would say, out loud, that Trump's obsession with the Nobel Peace Prize is entirely because That Black Man got one.

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.

What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

Pope Leo told U.S. bishops visiting him at the Vatican on Wednesday that they should firmly address how immigrants are being treated by President Donald Trump's hardline policies, attendees said, in the latest push by the pontiff on the issue. For @reuters.com:

As a consumer of news and a casual observer of the industry, the Weiss story feels melodramatic if not overblown. CBS made their bed with the trump bribe and ruining 60 Minutes. Weiss reflects the CBS commitment to sleeping in that bed.

Bari Weiss introduced herself to CBS News staff today on the network's 9AM call, saying she wants to "win," which requires restoring trust to CBS. She also said she was excited for staff to get to know the Free Press, and ended her remarks by saying: "Let's do the fucking news."
