@kaileyleinz watched u this pm w/ rep ML of NY. Thank you for doing your job. Sticking to the facts and forcing him to respond to a spade, when it is a spade. I don’t dislike rep ML, but BBB clearly disqualifies him from speaking of “fixing our debt problem”. Anyway, 🙏

In a word, "yikes": Trump's moderate GOP support is collapsing.

He led them by 69 pt vs Harris in 2024. His net approval now is +10 pt. A 59 pt shift.

He was more trusted vs Harris on the economy by 80 pt. Net approval now? +3 pt. A 77 pt shift!

On inflation, he's at -17 pt!

New w/ @PranjalDrall: Private Credit's State Backstop: How Private Equity Socializes Risk Through Insurers. It's about how insurance insolvency, tax, and financial-regulation law have subsidized PE's takeover of life insurance and become the submerged law of private credit.

“Michelle Obama is a man” shouted on the White House lawn in a ring sponsored by Bud Light only available on Larry Ellison’s Paramount Plus. What a way to celebrate America 250 and the twilight of liberal democracy.

If you can’t get enough. Here’s 8 more minutes of pure deconstruction of the regime. 😂

Christine Lagarde is on my level. People seem to have no idea how bad this is about to get.

@SenSchumer @ChrisMurphyCT don’t capitulate on DHS funding unless we have clear identification and the removal of masks. Hold the line!

"What is unfolding is not immigration enforcement. It is a state project of ethnic rollback. The purpose is not to administer law but to override it. The aim is not security but purification. The prerogative state is its essential operating system." https://t.co/gukhnclmiN

BREAKING: Over 100 priests arrested in Minneapolis for protesting ICE in Minnesota where today it's -21 degrees outside MSP Airport.

The clergy gathered in prayerful solidarity to demand airlines — especially @Delta and Signature Aviation — cease contracting deportation flights to DHS.

So far, over 2,000 deportations have gone through MSP, per organizers.

“Trump has been taking on more of the behaviors that define a fascist. He has seized authorities from Congress, ordered prosecutions, built a paramilitary force. In Davos, he suggested he wasn’t a dictator. But he added, ‘Sometimes you need a dictator.’”

In light of DHS activities in Maine, Susan Collins should withdraw her support for the DHS Appropriations bill and actively lobby colleagues of both parties in support of filibustering it, or flat out defeating it, in the Senate.
