Melissa Hortman, who was assassinated last night, was the Speaker of the Minnesota House in the 2023-2024 session, when Democrats ran the state government. That means she had a leading role in shepherding the many landmark reforms that Dems adopted in that period—an important legacy. Brief 🧵.

Some thoughts about the military parade in my hometown of Washington DC today -- specifically, the route. Military parades in DC are quite rare. But when they happen, they have always begun, symbolically and geographically, at the Capitol and moved outward. 1/

I think I know why, but why is it that AOC & Jasmine Crockett are not leading the way in the D party? They consistently bring guns to this gunfight! Most others bring their stern objections and very harsh concerns. We need soldiers. We need special forces. We need fearless leadership...

SEN. PADILLA: “Saying I lunged is a lie, but that’s par for the course for this administration… I was behind the cameras listening, and at a certain point hearing Noem say they had to rescue LA from the Governor and Mayor was too much to take. So I raise my voice to ask a question.”

The party that called the January 6th such on the Capitol "legitimate political discourse" doesn't get to tell ANY group of people that they shouldn't fly a flag honoring their heritage. Never forget what they defended.

So let me get this straight. White people who wave around the Confederate flag claiming “it’s my heritage” are just fine … But Brown people waving the Mexican flag in a state that used to be part of Mexico because it’s their heritage is a crime … Got it.

What amuses me is that Gavin Newsome could have probably ridden this shit all the way to the White House if he’d kept his yap close about trans girls in sports. Now no matter what he does in response to this Trump manufactured crisis, all I’ll ever think is “you raised a kid who likes Charlie Kirk.”

Remember as we see the Elon-Trump fight that part of the reason we are in this mess is because a lot of people think that women are too emotional to be the president... 🙄

SCOOP: The State Department's new reorganization plan includes the opening of an "Office for Remigration," a term popularized by far right extremists and neo-Nazis in Europe. The office will coordinate directly with DHS "to advance the President’s immigration agenda." My report:

The Trump administration wants to turn the U.S.–Mexico border into a military zone, sidestepping Congress. Soldiers shouldn't be enforcing immigration law.

Rep. Julie Johnson to Noem: "Are you aware that ICE agent jackets are available on Etsy for $20? Anybody can throw a mask on and run around and terrorize people of color without any regard for the law because your agency does not have proper protocols to make sure your agents are clearly identified"

I know lawyering up and shutting up is scary. Believe me. I do. But you CANNOT talk your way out of an arrest or detention. You CAN talk your way into charges, arrest, or detention. And you'd be amazed how often the response to lawyering up is just letting you go.

My daughter recently took the constitution test for school, a requirement in my state for 8th grade. She has to do it again senior year to graduate. She overheard an Aaron Parnas news story I was listening to and asked "why did I have to learn the constitution if trump didn't?" A 13yo gets it.

No matter what this Administration tells the American people, the law is very clear: Members of Congress have a legal right to enter any DHS detention facility to conduct oversight without prior notice - something I’ve done twice this year without issue.
