The easiest thing for Democrats to do would be to stop confirming Trump judges, but they can’t even be bothered to do that. Just failure all the way down.

Every year since 1988, the United States has recognized World AIDS Day — until now.
Why not? Maybe because the Trump administration doesn’t want to acknowledge that its foreign aid cuts led to nearly 150,000 deaths from AIDS, according to Boston University researchers.
Shameful.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

I haven’t seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.

Anyone telling you this spells doom in Maine is being silly.
It is now 230 days until the primary and 377 days until the general.
And it’s not like the campaign has already been going for a long time. Platner just announced 293 days before the primary and 440 days before the general election.

Let’s be clear: if the government shuts down, Republicans own it. They’re blocking a budget that protects healthcare, funds schools, and lowers costs for families — because chaos is the point. Virginians deserve a government that works for them.

Here is how the media should be reporting this morning's news.
As part of a growing pattern of political retribution, Donald Trump's FBI has raided the home of a prominent administration critic. In this instance it happens to be John Bolton. The pretense is largely irrelevant.
