I haven't been able to follow the classified Signal chat debacle without thinking of Airplane.

Today DOJ announced a three-year prison sentence for a DOD employee, a 26-year-old civilian woman from Nevada, who mishandled Top Secret documents by taking them home from a secure facility.

Look, the Signal leak is a huge deal, but it's so insulting that the national press has finally anointed this as a Scandal — for the palace intrigue, because a journalist is involved, the echoes of Watergate — when last month Elon signed the death warrants of 20 million people.

It is so funny that even when posting what should be a triumphant moment about a launch of some new image generator Sam Altman can't even post an image where the guy has the correct number of fingers

I’m old enough to remember when Secretary Hegseth tried to publicly mock Judge Reyes—suggesting that she didn’t know what she was doing when it comes to protecting our national security. It was … two days ago.

Okay, but how could we have possibly known Hegseth's lack of experience would lead to a colossal national security disaster?

I think she’s the first example of someone who was laid off because of Elon’s BS running for office… something tells me there will be others.

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act. With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

Warnock: They are busy attacking ordinary people. They don’t understand what it’s like to ration your prescription drugs or what it’s like to try to figure out how to afford groceries. In the words of that prophet who just spoke at The Super Bowl: They not like us

I was at USIP tonight to conduct congressional oversight over DOGE’s break in. I spoke with Acting President & CEO Moose. USIP is an independent, non-profit entity and I will work to stop DOGE’s illegal power grab.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

Getting rid of the American workers who take care of American veterans is wrong. Veterans will not take this sitting down - we can make this the newest example of Trump being forced to back down from a bad move.

There has been a lot of chatter today about Zelenskyy's meeting with Trump, some regarding this moment when White House correspondent Brian Glenn asked if the Ukrainian president plans to wear a suit. I want to address idea in this thread. 🧵

I came out this morning and found this flyer on my Honda Odyssey. Just because I own a Honda doesn't mean I condone the man's actions or agree with all of his political beliefs, and I'm a little offended at the idea that I should be held responsible.

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.
