New in PN: Trump’s reckless Iran strikes could backfire spectacularly "America has entered few wars with less forethought, less deliberation, and more contempt for the public. Trump has recklessly endangered the country and world. It’s not much consolation that he may also have endangered himself."

It’s deeply disturbing that FAA Administrator nominee Bryan Bedford refuses to commit to upholding the 1,500-hour pilot training standard. After the DCA crash and surge in near-misses, now is NOT the time to weaken flight training requirements for pilots. I’ll be voting no.

100 days. That’s how long innocent Venezuelans have been trapped in CECOT—a cruel & crushing prison in El Salvador. Thanks to Trump. We cannot forget. We cannot forgive. Share their stories. Shatter the silence. Refuse to let them be erased. VC ajaper on IG

Launching the U.S. into what could be yet another unpopular and costly forever war, while simultaneously pushing for an unpopular budget bill at home that will take food and healthcare away from millions of people. The "peace president."

Take off those masks, and let us compare the faces to J6 felons who were pardoned. My bet would be on several matches.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

@warren.senate.gov: "Republicans wanna do a bomb with a long fuse. They wanna say, 'We're gonna cut healthcare & food help for millions of Americans. We're gonna pass the law now, light the fuse, and it's not gonna explode until right after the 2026 election. That way Republicans can deny reality.'"

Hayes: Every provision in this program is cruel and they know it. That's why none of them spoke on it in committee. That's why they have no response. That's why they don't hold town halls. That's why they don't answer questions. All they do is tweet, repeat, and hide in the back until they vote yes

The Constitution says that Congress must approve gifts to the president and his family from foreign potentates, but apparently the Constitution is mostly decorative these days.

Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.

McGovern: "This is not a governing philosophy. It is a scam. I wasn't sent here to vote for trash. I can't understand why you'd choose a career of public service to do this -- to rip away the healthcare & food assistance of working & middle class Americans. Is that really what you came here to do?"
