Using the awesome power of the government to persecute a guy because the president fucked up his own vanity project is one of the most craven, illiberal things I’ve ever seen. Everyone involved in this should get hauled in front of the next Democratic Congress.

Republicans on affordability: “Drink less Starbucks”

Niall Stanage rejected the caricature of “wokeness,” arguing that the movement began by confronting America’s history of racial and gender injustice. Those who marched after George Floyd’s murder were “woke in the positive sense,” he said.

While the movement sometimes “overshot,” Stanage said its critics weaponized the term to evade the racial disparities they still refuse to confront.

AOC on Hasan Piker: "Much hay was made about the fact that we lost young men in the last election. Many of the same consultants that are wringing their hands today were the same ones talking about how we have to go on Joe Rogan and not be so willing to engage in cancel culture."

Senate shld've voted no on: RFK. Bondi. Hegseth. Gabbard. Oz. Joe Kent. Maybe Noem (her awfulness wasn't quite as clear at the time.) Maybe Chavez-De Reimer. Probably more. And now, definitely, Blanche. Pathetic refusal to stand up for Senate authority, not to mention decency.

@politicalmath We could get there with solar before you built a single nuclear plant.

How did we get to a place where major news networks are reporting online prediction markets as mathematical odds? These are not AES's "chances". These are numbers created by bettors that use Kalshi. It is literally false to say these are his "chances."

[Lisa Rubin @lawofruby]

NEW: Prior to his speech, neither Cassidy nor his staff met with survivors of Jeffrey Epstein, despite their repeated entreaties. Notwithstanding that, Cassidy said during his floor speech that among the reasons to support Blanche was that leaving him as an acting AG without Senate confirmation could risk DOJ's progress on . . . human trafficking. Let that sink in.

@jpkolb Plenty of places to move to if you want to be alone and unconnected and entirely reliant on a car you will one day no longer be able to drive.

anders folk is running to be hennepin county attorney, the position that will prosecute ICE agents, while accepting a contribution from chris madel, the republican lawyer who provided legal counsel to jonathan ross, the ICE agent who murdered renee good in minnesota

@jpkolb @DeRushaJ A human would point out that while diverse, we are also some of the most segregated. Entire communities have built walls to keep black pepper out.

Sounds like an argument for why Republicans should never be in power under a tyrant.

Hundreds of bank accounts tied to the President of the United States were closed due to concerns over money laundering and it barely made the news.

In 2025 Angie Craig opened for Eric Trump at a cryptocurrency conference in Jackson Hole. Matthew Cunningham-Cook wrote an excellent piece in @RacketMN Crypto barrons are getting their wish list: The Clarity Act ... The Genius Act. https://t.co/VizmDK7LH4

An ambitious attempt to connect dots that weren't there.

Just when you think @AngieCraigMN can’t get any lower… she is using that image of Liam without permission in an ad to vilify her opponent. Reminder that Angie voted for Laken-Riley, Angie voted to bring ICE into our community and then she voted to THANK ICE.
Liam deserves better
