Neguse on Noem: Clearly the president was embarrassed by the corruption and the fraud — the self-dealing that we exposed during the course of this hearing. But I also think he was perhaps envious of it.

I wonder what percentage of Americans knows that the CIA helped overthrow a democracy in Iran in 1953, installing a brutal dictator who tortured and murdered people. Republicans keep citing the 1979 Islamic Revolution as if that was the start of U.S.-Iran hostilities. Go back 26 years earlier.

This is how liars lie (and how I call it out).
Hey I did a fun thing with @warren.senate.gov about breaking up giant healthcare conglomerates
NEW: Sen. Peter Welch (D-VT) & Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) launch review of $220 million taxpayer-funded Dept of Homeland Security ad campaign w/ Kristi Noem
Senators seek records about "circumstances surrounding the awarding of this lucrative, no-bid contract..."
George, I'm idly curious if your daughter (in addition to your doggo) is involved with your coms/campaign!

Next?
Himes: I have a theory on how this ends…
You’re going to see oil go across $100… Projections for economic growth are going to go down.
And at some point in 3-5 weeks, the president is going to say this is really not tenable. And he’s going to declare victory and walk away.
Of course, Kristi Noem deserved to be fired. But rather than spend energy celebrating this Trump setback, let's recognize that the disaster of today’s DHS runs much deeper than the (former) Secretary's incompetence - and keep stepping up the political pressure.
Don’t let the door hit you on the way out, Kristi Noem.

This morning, our office announced the creation of the Transparency and Accountability Project (TAP) in the wake of Operation Metro Surge to collect and assess evidence submitted by the public of potentially unlawful behavior by federal agents.

This war will do nothing to help - and will very likely make things worse - when it comes to the biggest challenges we face at home.
Trump or his wealthy friends won’t pay the price. It will fall on service members and their families, on taxpayers, and on working Americans already stretched thin.
This is a time for coalition. We may not agree on everything, but surely the defense of liberty in the face of this administration's abuses can bring together progressives, libertarians, and quite a few conservatives in common cause.
Nice! Which model is that?
The Supreme Court has struck down Trump’s unlawful tariffs, which we've been paying for about a year now. This is good news for the American people - and it's the latest proof that this president, no matter what he says, can be stopped.
I'm running for Congress to take the fight directly to Trump—but I can't do it if I'm not on the ballot. 🗳️
We need 1,250 signatures from NY-12 Democrats in just a few weeks. It’s going to be close.

It is very very very difficult to stand out from the crowd of people writing about What It’s Like In Minnesota Right Now. We are a hyper-literate people and we never actually stop talking.
This piece. about the terror and the joy, stands out:

Lindsey Graham is a haggard old alcoholic who sold his soul on the golf course after Trump told him he also knew about the worst kept secret on Capitol Hill (nice work, Jared). Having him insult our allies while in a blackout is not what our forefathers envisioned. Retire, lush.
It's hard to believe that you could be the trade representative for a major power and not know that tariffs are regressive.
My econ 101 students know what the word regressive means, and that tariffs are regressive. Many could even cite studies on the subject.
The Constitution is currently being interpreted by the Epstein Class at SCOTUS.
@ezraklein.bsky.social writes about the "class solidarity" of the Epstein class & @anandwrites.bsky.social says modern courage is taking them on & being willing to burn the bridge.
Rep. Massie & I are fighting to hold the Epstein class accountable.

The Illinois Accountability Commission is gathering precisely the kind of evidence that will hold ICE and the Trump Administration responsible.
Agreed - was just there in solidarity!
For 50 years, the median wage of hourly workers stagnated or declined while the stock market and CEO pay skyrocketed.
Is it any wonder why so many feel abandoned by the system? People lose faith, and a demagogue fills the void.
This is why we must fix the system. AOC is right.
AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."
NEW: State Rep Scott Bottoms (R) claims, without offering evidence, that there are pedophile rings involving elected officials at Colorado's Capitol.
When the GOP candidate for Governor wouldn't agree to a scheduled interview, we met him for an unscheduled interview.
