@SenTinaSmith Thank you @SenTinaSmith for literally standing up for the BWCA!

[Nick Offerman @Nick_Offerman]

•The U.S. Senate may hold a floor vote TODAY which would overturn a 20-year moratorium on sulfide-ore copper mining on 225,000 acres of Superior National Forest land in the watershed of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area (BWCA) Wilderness in northern Minnesota. The Boundary Waters is the most visited Wilderness in the United States. 

🛶 Enjoying the Minnesotan/Canadian wilderness by canoe or other lesser watercraft is one of our nations greatest available pastimes, and one I have personally enjoyed my entire life. We must protect these public lands from the rapacious capitalists threatening to turn them into a poisoned wasteland.

•This vote in Congress would open the door to copper mining at the headwaters of this entire ecosystem. This kind of mining produces toxic pollution, including acid runoff and heavy metals, that can contaminate nearby waters.

•The Boundary Waters supports a major outdoor economy that sustains thousands of jobs and generates over a billion dollars a year - built on clean water and intact public lands. But this vote would clear the way for toxic mining that puts all of that at risk. It would also set a dangerous precedent, making it easier to roll back protections for public lands across the country, including wilderness areas, national monuments, and national parks. 

•This is a defining moment. If you care about clean water, public lands, and protecting places we can’t replace, now is the time to speak up.
•Protect the Boundary Waters, and vote NO on House Joint Resolution 140. Let’s save this treasured place for all of us—forever. https://t.co/JhNAR6Za2O

🚨BREAKING: Lawrence O'Donnell looked America in the eye tonight and said on live TV what many are thinking about Donald Trump's profane, perverse, filthy outburst on Easter Sunday to commit war crimes.

"The 25th Amendment was written for yesterday at 8:03am."

@AngieCraigMN @TinaSmithMN @amyklobuchar @PodSaveAmerica. Please withhold DHS funding for ICE until they agree to unmask and wear body cameras.

@DHSgov @DHSgov your propaganda isn’t fooling anyone. We have eyes.

[Eric Maass @EricTMaass]

@DHSgov You’re all full of shit.

[Eric Maass @EricTMaass]

@GovTimWalz Thank you @GovTimWalz for your servant leadership to the state and people of Minnesota.

@GOPMajorityWhip Your boss sells presidential pardons for white collar fraud. You cant have it both ways @GOPMajorityWhip

[Eric Maass @EricTMaass]

@GOPMajorityWhip GOP controls all levers of Gov’t. Don’t blame the Dems. Get to work and fund the Gov’t.

Shoutout to the family that let us sit by them who also thought the policy was dumb. We took turns getting food and drinks from the lounge. Can’t wait to take our little girl to a @packers game where the hospitality will be better and family friendly! #GoPackGo

[Eric Maass @EricTMaass]

Won @Vikings tickets in Miller Lite Lounge. Vikes website says kids under 2 yrs and 36” tall don’t need a ticket. We arrive and are told our baby isnt allowed at our seats because she’s not 21. She’s 9 weeks. Seriously? She going to snag a beer? Guess it’s Packer fandom for her!

[Eric Maass @EricTMaass]

Shoutout to the nice family that let us sit by them in the upper deck. We took turns going and getting food and drinks from the lounge. Can’t wait to take our little girl to a @packers game where I know the hospitality will be way better and family friendly! #GoPackGo

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

The fact that all these Republican lawmakers are running around trying (& often, failing) to get specific carve outs in their own bill so THEIR community isn’t subject should tell you all you need to know.

If they think it’s so great, why don’t they want it as-is for themselves?

@brianglenntv His country is fighting off an invasion. Your question was misplaced and down right rude. Be a better human.

[Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein]

BREAKING: Massive anti-Trump protest taking place outside the US Capitol building.

I certainly don’t remember Americans protesting Biden’s presidency like this. Crowd size matters, right?

[Eric Maass @EricTMaass]

@realDonaldTrump Recession incoming in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1….. way to go commander in circus.

[Roger Ledbetter @rledbetterCPA]

The House just released a list of options they may use to pay for the next big tax bill to extend current tax cuts.

Some expected, some zingers:

[Not Your Average Liberal @NotAvgLiberal]

Worth the 6 minutes.
Just listen.

This man spoke perfectly for every single person who voted against MAGA.

He spoke for everyone who voted against Trump.

[(((Harry Enten))) @ForecasterEnten]

Trump's mandate? It's very shallow. Trump's now under 50% in the popular vote. His margin ranks 44 of 51 since 1824.

Weak coattails: 4 Dems won for Senate in states Trump won. (It was 0 in 2016 & 2020.)

The GOP is on track for smallest House majority since there were 50 states.
