BREAKING: Senate Democrats have the votes to block the Republican Continuing Resolution, which was loaded with poison pills. Sen. Schumer says the Democratic caucus is unified on a clean short term resolution that would keep current funding through April 11.

I’m old enough to remember when conservatives said Obama was going to ruin the White House by parking Escalades on the lawn. Now they’re perfectly fine with Trump hawking Teslas in the driveway.

I have no idea why Bowser or someone else hasn't made this point to the NFL yet - if this CR passes, getting a publicly-funded stadium in DC will be almost impossible fiscally.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

The stock market is not the economy. The stock market is not the economy. The stock market is not the economy. Nonetheless, holy shit. What’s remarkable is that there’s hardly any real news driving this. It’s just investors belatedly realizing that Trump is who he is, and always was.

Congratulations to NDRC endorsed Democracy Defender David Gottfried, who has won the Minnesota House special election. This win puts a stop to the imposition of Republicans’ extreme partisan agenda. Another win in 2025. Thank you to all who made their voices heard.

It's often said that presidents have limited power over the economy, but really it's more accurate to say that they have limited power to increase economic growth. They have a lot more power to break things.

This should scare everyone. The Trump admin revoked Mahmoud’s legal status, kidnapped him, and is now holding him in an ICE detention facility without any due process. Trump is an authoritarian, testing the limits to see how much he can get away with. He won’t stop here.

Here’s the secret on Trump and tariffs: he gets to look tough by threatening them but he’s scared to death to use them or honestly, to actually do anything. This is why he only picks on our friends because he looks tough but isn’t. Also:

A recession isn’t inevitable yet, but if the administration continues on its current path, it’s more likely than not. Most MAGA influencers aren’t old enough to remember the real economic pain from the 2008 recession, but I hope someone is advising him to rethink this trade war.
