🧵 The fact that Cook County's "Brady/Giglio List" is finally public is a big deal. These lists include cops that prosecutors "do not call" to testify because they're untrustworthy, and this is the first time that Cook County's list has been published. https://t.co/hmQZ4j0BtK

McCarthy giving 40,000 hrs of Jan. 6 tape to a pro-Putin journalist is an astounding ethical collapse. What security precautions were taken to keep this from becoming a roadmap for 2024 insurrection? Why isn’t it available to all media & public? Smell the MAGA propaganda coming.

The best way for Dems to fight back against debt limit extortion "isn’t by asking Republicans to name their price, but by saying it doesn’t matter what their price is — any demand is an attempt to rob the public, and won’t be tolerated."

This might be the dumbest analogy I’ve ever heard. Raising the debt ceiling would not authorize new spending. It would let the U.S. pay the bills that Kevin McCarthy and Donald Trump ALREADY ran up with tax breaks for billionaires and giant corporations.

Earlier this month, the @HouseGOP passed a bill on the House floor to raise US oil prices. They are about to tee up another one this week, again designed to transfer $ from US consumers to US oil drillers. Thread below from the last one. Let's talk about the next one:

Related key point from @brianbeutler: News orgs constantly "reward GOP propaganda" by amplifying the supposed "optics problem" created for Dems by GOP noisemaking, regardless of whether the GOP argument has merit. But news orgs aren't obliged to do this!
