Must-read thread from Sen. @chrismurphyct.bsky.social
A kidney donor from Alaska drove from Chicago to Boston in the middle of a blizzard to help a New Hampshire woman in need.
I rarely do this, but here goes.
Dems should have VERY clear messaging on supplemental tied to the ouster of Whiskey Pete, Jared, and Witkoff. They've all ABSOLUTELY bolloxed the situation and if Trump wants $$, he needs to get rid of all of them.
Challenge them to live on those "entitlements". Single parent: daycare, food, diapers, toiletries, rent, gas, healthcare, etc. I have huge respect for those of us who make every penny count!
Grateful for this moment with one of the real heroes of our time.
Josรฉ Andrรฉs reminds the world that compassion is action.
Always inspiring. ๐

Dear Latino & Hispanic voters,
The Republican Party believes that masked federal thugs lawlessly roaming our streets, racially profiling brown & black people, and terrorizing immigrants & citizens is just a โlittle hiccup.โ I thought you should know.
Best,
A Former Republican

This was actually a point someone (Swalwell?) made in one of last week's hearings.
SCOOP: Federal judiciary approves new Supreme Court defender office to help represent indigent defendants at #SCOTUS.
Its full-time director will serve as a counterweight to the U.S. solicitor general in federal criminal cases. The first will be former Kagan clerk and SG atty Ashley Robertson.
Almost 700,000 displaced, 84 children killed after Israeli strikes on Lebanon, UN agencies say reut.rs/4sHFmpf
I worry these actions will result in deepening hatred of the US resulting in decades of radicalized people and ongoing threat. So called diplomacy by Witcoff and Kushner have failed us epically.
A March 3 satellite picture (sourced to Planet Labs) of a March 1 missile strike on Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia. The "damaged structure" which is marked, is close to a Radome, also marked.
In first report on Russia helping Iran w/targeting, WaPo focused on strikes in Saudi Arabia. NYT earlier revealed this strike on Prince Sultan Air Base--which they later implied was the strike that would lead to Bejamin Pennington's death.
We need to know if RU played a role in killing Pennington.

Executive time is back, baby
New documents reveal that a prison guard searched for Jeffrey Epstein online shortly before he was found dead in his cell.
They have no problem spending a billion dollars a day on war, but fight for every penny when it comes to caring for Veterans.
Hey That's my senator and he's great but it's time to step down and give someone younger a start.
Okay that said this entire Iran shitshow, I believe, was a rouse to drop sanctions on Putin so he can sell oil again at the highest prices in years. And it's already started.
NEW: After Gov Jared Polis (D) told me that Tina Peters must show contrition to gain clemency, an attorney for Peters now says she "has remorse."
Peters has long maintained she did "nothing wrong" in leading a breach of Colorado's voting systems and is a political prisoner.
Discovery should be interesting...

Those who have tamped down concerns about the SAVE Actโs chance of passage in the Senate are wrong. Keep your eyes on the prize. The potential for a blowout in 2026 is top of mind for Trump, and there are only a few ways to avoid it.
Call your Senators. 202-224-3121.
Oh great, you know what that means...
Breaking: Trump said the Iran war will be over โvery soonโ but that the U.S. military campaign still has further to go.
Nah
Who inspires you? Who among us will rise above this evil and lead us?
