The news isn’t being clear about this but to people hearing about these Minnesota shootings: Melissa Hortman is the Dem leader in the Minnesota House and was Speaker of the House 2019-2025. She’s probably the most influential state-level Democrat barring the governor.

So then Elon goes "Kill the Bill!" and Trump goes "Elon has TDS!" so Elon goes "I'm the reason Trump won!" so Trump goes "we waste billions on Elon!" so Elon goes "Epstein!" and a corpulent flunkie goes "Deport Elon!" and Elon goes "Impeach!" And THAT'S why women are too emotional to be President.

I wrote about a scandal in the Big Beautiful Bill that should really be shocking even if it isn’t surprising. Replacing jet fuel with corn and soybeans doesn’t pencil out for the climate, so Congress wants to take away the government’s pencils. @yalee360.bsky.social e360.yale.edu/features/cor...

There are lots of wrong definitions of habeas one could give, but this is just about the most wrong definition possible. Imagine a cabinet member being asked to define freedom of speech and answering that it’s the government’s right to stop you from criticizing them. About the same.

For the first time in modern US history, Moody’s has downgraded the United States credit rating from Aaa to Aa1.

Republican lies are stacking up faster than the debt they’re creating. Listen to Sen Ron Johnson admit the plan adds $4 trillion & “absolutely” slashes Medicaid. Don’t let the spin fool you—they’re gutting healthcare to bankroll tax breaks for the ultra-rich. Believe their actions, not their lies.
