Try asking your Alex political questions. Yesterday, mine was telling me that she doesn’t have an answer for them, including a very simple one, is the Republican Party conservative or liberal.

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.

BREAKING: France, Germany, Poland, Italy, Spain & UK sign a joint statement vowing to protect Ukraine’s sovereignty & demanding a role in the peace talks.

This is leadership.

It’s also unprecedented.

A western alliance is having to form against a new, twin & united threat: Trump & Putin.

So far in the last 24 hours, Russia's gotten:
- a sympathetic ear/voice installed as DNI
- the release of a crime boss
- Hegseth ceding Crimea to them
- Trump offering a WH visit
- The US acting as middleman rather than Ukraine ally

Can Florida automatically sentence undocumented immigrants to death for capital crimes?
In Florida, capital crimes include homicide, controlled-substance trafficking and sexual abuse of young children.
