NEW: Colorado Sens Hickenlooper and Bennet announce they're putting a hold on the Senate appropriations package to demand funding for NCAR.

Bennet said today that the Trump administration's move to dismantle the climate/weather lab is retaliation for Tina Peters' imprisonment.

The Kennedy Center was established and named by an act of Congress. No media outlet should call it anything different until Congress amends or repeals that Act. Trump is not a king.

Trump is taking money out their housing allowances approved by Congress and giving it to them in a “bonus” so it looks like it came from him. It’s just a shell game with military pay from the ultimate con man

President Trump's repeated wholesale attacks on Congresswoman Omar and Minnesota's Somali-American community must stop. This hate and division has no place in our politics.

Bad framing: ACIP voted to scrap the universal hepatitis B vaccine recommendation for newborns.

Accurate framing: Anti-vax conspiracy theorists appointed to ACIP by Robert Kennedy Jr., who made a fortune as an anti-vax profiteer, voted to expose babies to a preventable, incurable, deadly illness.

The dripping contempt the right wing SCOTUS majority holds for district judges is truly a sight to behold every time. When they deign to give actual reasons for their shadow docket holdings, it’s “look at the absolute idiots who keep getting everything wrong!”

Exactly. The operator isn't getting an order to "kill these drowning men," they're being told "strike grid coordinates XYZ"

The people who *know* need to be held accountable, and that's pretty senior.
Someone made the point - I think Adam Kinzinger - that the problem is it’s one thing to refuse to murder someone if ordered. It’s another to refuse an order where you yourself don’t have the full context and couldn’t possibly - but someone above you does/did
