Trump is likely to start saying Dems support tariffs to confuse voters on who to blame. Unfortunately, Bernie Sanders, AOC, Chris Deluzio, and others do support tariffs
Progressives and Dem populists are helping Trump with their irresponsible tariff approach to placate unions that vote Trump

Gretchen Whitmer is wrong, Joe Biden was wrong, and Bernie Sanders has never supported free trade — which inherently means he supports blanket tariffs. These are 1930s approaches to trade

MLB needs to fix its blackout policy. There's no good reason I should be allowed to watch the White Sox.

As Trump’s tariffs absolutely destroy the stock market and economy, it’s important to remember that progressives have been the faction that opposes free trade and supports tariffs, that Bernie Sanders ran against trade in 2016, and it’s why AOC is quiet right now.

When MAGA folks say “no scalps” and pledge to stand by Hegseth no matter what, they are telling us something very important.
More mistakes will be made. Signalgate can happen again. They are fine w that.

“Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who is facing scrutiny over his handling of details of a military strike, brought his wife, a former Fox News producer, to two meetings with foreign military counterparts where sensitive information was discussed”
Exclusive | Hegseth Brought His Wife to Sensitive Meetings With Foreign Military Officials
The defense secretary’s handling of sensitive information is under criticism after he shared details about a strike on Houthi militants in a group chat on a widely used app.

Jeffrey Goldberg and the Atlantic deserve a ton of credit for publishing these war plans. There’s a non-zero chance Trump tries to throw him in jail over this.
The Atlantic has now published the Signal texts with attack plans in response to administration denials.
I worked at the Pentagon.
If information like this is not classified, nothing is.
If Hegseth is claiming he declassified this information, he should be shown the door for having done so.

This Trump National security breach is so incredibly bad it has nothing to do with a journalist being on the signal thread.
In no way, shape, or form, should extremely classified information on war plans be shared on signal, a service being monitored by Russia, China and others.

A reminder that I warned everyone how stupid Pete Hegseth is and how much of a danger he would be to our national security as Secretary of Defense. This is before he mistakenly texted journalists highly classified war plans... www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

What a desk to sit at. A legendary Senator and veteran of WWII.
I learned Senate floor desks have drawers where every Senator who used that desk carves their name. I just pulled out my drawer. 1 name jumped out. INOUYE. WWII Medal of Honor. Senator for ~ 50 yrs. AAPI trailblazer. I cannot believe I get to sit at the desk of a hero of mine.

Interesting article on Puerto Rico from a conservative publication. Dems have left the island behind, but Trump and Republicans can make it the crown jewel of America and set an example for Latin America.
The island could also turn GOP. Dems should be ashamed for listening to AOC

Glad the Democratic Party is putting Connolly, a serious, well respected Member in charge of Oversight during the Trump years. It’s more important than folks might realize

We do not give up.
We run through the tape.
