I missed this earlier today: one of Michigan’s two Republican justices announced her retirement today. Gretchen Whitmer will appoint her replacement. That will likely bring Democrats’ majority on this key court to 6-1.

Democratic leaders: I think it's abundantly clear at this point that simply going along to get along ain't gonna work. Trying to negotiate ain't gonna work. Being collegial ain't gonna work. What you're doing right now isn't working. Take your gloves off and punch back. Hard.

In the midst of all this, reconstructive maxillofacial surgery #2 went pretty well. Less intense than the upper portion from Nov. I am grateful for that. Lord knows if I would be denied care 30,60,90 days from now…. But today it is done, and that is good. Painful, but good. #onwards!

A Delta flight flipped over (!) on landing in Toronto, the fifth major plane incident since Trump unleashed mass firings of air traffic controllers and federal air safety leadership. He fired several hundred more ATCs today. I just got off a Delta flight yesterday 😬 www.nytimes.com/2025/02/17/w...

Donald Trump isn't interested in a smaller government, he wants a weaponized government. He doesn't want fewer federal employees, he just wants them loyal to him.

The best messaging is to state what everyone knows to be the truth in the simplest and clearest way possible. So it’s hard to imagine more effective messaging than this.

👀 DOJ acknowledges making two significant errors during a court hearing last week on efforts to dismantle USAID 1) It said only 500 employees had been placed on leave. Actual number was 2,140. 2) Said only future contracts were stopped. Existing contracts were also stopped.

Why does the world's richest man want to gut the CFPB? Because it would shield him from having to follow financial laws to keep customers' money safe — and give him access to confidential records about his competitors. Follow the money.

The work of CFPB is wildly popular with Americans. You know the people who don’t like it? Firms trying to rip off and scam Americans. In case you are wondering who the Trump admin is serving….
