Democrats appear on track to flip a state senate district Trump win by 20 points in Pennsylvania tonight in a special election. The last time a Democrat even ran in this district was in 2018 and they lost by over 30 points. The backlash has officially begun.

You know how much you love it when companies build Byzantine phone systems to keep you from accessing a live person or getting real help for your particular issues? That is the system DOGE is creating for your Social Security benefits. www.forbes.com/sites/teresa...

Insomnia thoughts: If/when Trump/DOGE succeeds in killing Social Security, can a class action lawsuit be filed on behalf of every living American to reclaim every penny they’ve put into it?

This is the biggest news of the last 24 hours—not the Signal Scandal. Trump watchers have long said that early in his presidency he would begin a push to utterly destroy the U.S. voting system and disenfranchise millions and millions of voters. Here we go.

1. Tulsi Gabbard was overseas while participating in the Signal chat. 2. Steven Witkoff was in Russia when he was added to the Signal chat. 3. Russia infiltrated Signal some time ago to use it against Ukrainians. It’s high time to Benghazi the shit out of Trump’s administration.

New in PN: Why the Wisconsin Supreme Court race is a big deal "Voters by now have demonstrated their ability to choose diarrhea forever over everyone gets a puppy, & to vote away their own rights and democracy. But the WI election is a chance to start turning the country away from authoritarianism"

Pretty sure what we have seen today is Trump and Putin acting as allies to betray Ukraine and isolate Europe. What seems to have happened is this. 1) The US got Ukraine to agree a Black Sea ceasefire on the idea that if Rus broke it, the US would put more sanctions on Rus.

This is what happens when you have an entire cabinet full of folks who would NEVER pass a regular security clearance. Led by a president who would never be able to pass one either.

Meiselas: Steve Witkoff, was allegedly in Moscow while he was on this group chat. Do you believe the Russians now have all of that information and potentially more? Rice: Well, yes—the Russians have whatever Witkoff was doing or saying on his personal cell phone. The Russians undoubtedly have it.

🤣😂🤣 This is an amazing and hilarious breakdown of the process used in Signal to add people to a group chat. (I believe credit due to @amandagailey.bsky.social)

This is one of the most telling observations abt the Signal chat (in story noting that US has not yet asked EU to pay). These people are SUPPOSED to be taking on China. But they saw the Yemen strike as helping Europe, not helping China ship goods to Europe. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/25/w...

Rs will I presume settle on a single story eventually, but they're all over the place now. Goldberg's lying, Goldberg hacked the chat, the chat wasn't classified, this was a minor mistake. Like, all those things can't be simultaneously true (and in fact none of them are true!)

The only thing standing between Donald Trump and his authoritarian dream is the courts. But to defeat him, we need lawyers willing to litigate against him. Trump is trying to intimidate lawyers and law firms to stop fighting. At least for me, it won't work. I wear his scorn like a badge of honor.

Elon Musk’s DOGE is crippling the Social Security Administration. SSA’s website crashed four times in 10 days and Americans who depend on Social Security have flooded congressional offices with angry phone calls. The AARP says it receives 2,000 calls a week.

The Pennsylvania State Senate flip could not have come at a better time. The momentum from this shocking upset sets Democrats up perfectly for the Wisconsin State Supreme Court election and the #FL06 and #FL01 elections next week. Now let’s build on that momentum and run through the tape.

It’s worth stating this simply: For literally anyone in the US Govt from 1945 to 2025, Signalgate would require an instant resignation—and a criminal investigation. It would be a matter of personal honor to resign. The fact Mike Waltz & Pete Hegseth are choosing to fight it out is a terrible omen.

Almost goes without saying at this point, but this is wildly illegal and unconstitutional in several respects. Both federalism (usurping state powers) and separation of powers (purporting to rewrite laws passed by Congress).

“I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but of all the people out there, somehow this guy . . . gets on somebody’s contact and then gets sucked into this group.” Waltz is the one who invited Goldberg! Waltz “sucked” him into the group! (Waltz should have chosen a better verb.)
