"I can go through pretty much the entire South and tell you that they’re broke and they rely on a lot of welfare from the government -- to be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these BIG BLUE states like New York. So the South is in the find out phase." --Rep. Jasmine Crockett

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

The governor of Maine is a 77-year-old in the middle of her second term in office and therefore ineligible to run for a third. But King Trump here tries to intimidate her by saying she'll have no future career in politics if she dares to stand up to him. I think she's all good, man.

Just told a heartbreaking story of a foster parent who took in a 16 year old girl whose parents got taken away. The ice agents gave her the choice of going with her parents or going into foster care. Her parents begged her to stay for her safety. And they said goodbye to her.

It’s absolutely a Nazi salute. But note how weak it is. Whether it’s sincere or “ironic” (and that doesn’t make a difference), he doesn’t quite have the cobbles to do it vigorously. He does it like grandma struggling to put her shawl on a hook.

Donald Trump is NOT a Republican. He is a pawn of a long-running intelligence operation by the Russian SVR and GRU.

Carville: USAID spent $41 billion the federal budget is 6 trillion. Actually comes to something like .014%. So take that and put it against the 6 trillion and see what you have done when your president is responsible for more federal debt than any president in the history of the United States.

In an effort to remind y'all how anti-immigrant policies have always been bipartisan, this camp has sadly been around for years (so have the camps on both sides of our border with Mexico). As horrifying as it is, it's not new. But it needs to stop.

We have to face the fact that what's happening now is the direct result of allowing our elections to be bought. The United States has relied on good-faith politics for far too long and bad actors are taking advantage of that.
