I rarely say this, but if your Senate Democrat isn't doing what Chris Coons is doing, you should be calling them and asking why the hell not. It's not enough to EVENTUALLY oppose this bill - we need Senate Dems out there publicly rallying the troops RIGHT NOW.

Hearing from a source: "A friend at NCI lost 3 outstanding staff (their words) and tweeted about it. She was suspended for 2 days. No idea how her tweet was flagged." This is for all the people asking us why it's hard to tell what's happening at NIH. Retaliation is real.

Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy basically declares that Congress should give SpaceX money to help modernize the Air Traffic Control system. There are other companies besides SpaceX who could also do it. Why would SpaceX get the contract? 🤷‍♀️

Brexit started off as a very bad idea. All the big events that have occurred since - from the pandemic to Russia's invasion of Ukraine to Trump's merciless second reign - combine to make that bad idea much, much worse. Why do people still pretend 2025 is anything like 2016? Just rejoin already!

Trump has managed to push some of the staunchest Atlanticists in Europe into open criticism of the US & the American President - & rightly so. It’s one thing to put delinquent Europeans on notice for free riding (fair) It’s quite another to side with dictator Putin & 🇷🇺 against Zelenskyy & free 🇺🇦

The complete failure of Republicans in Congress to exercise their power as a check on the executive branch is national disgrace. But the courts are doing their job and may yet protect democracy from Trump.
