It’s important that every voter knows there’s only one pro choice candidate for President, and I don’t think we - all of us - should assume people know. Democrats broadly and POTUS specifically will lead the charge, and it’s also good information for reporting about the race.

Collins: Just to be clear, you're voting for someone who you believe tried to subvert the peaceful transfer of power, that can’t even achieve his own policies, that lied about the election, who is facing 88 criminal counts  Barr: The answer the question is yes.

After six months of war, Hamas's reputation in Gaza continues to sink and Palestinians are increasingly willing to criticize it: "Support for Hamas is declining because more and more people feel it has some responsibility for the pain they are enduring."

Umm. David Pecker testifies that he had a joint call with Hope Hicks and Sarah Huckabee Sanders — taxpayer funded WH officials, at the time — about whether Karen McDougal’s contract should be extended. "Both of them said that they thought it was a good idea," Pecker said.

As we celebrate our beautiful planet on #EarthDay , it’s important we remember what’s at stake. Climate change is the most dangerous threat Earth has ever faced—we’ve made progress thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act and the Infrastructure Law, but there’s still much work to do.

Some Republicans like Chip Roy and Norman are mad at Johnson for not winning anything on the border in the Ukraine package. Does everybody have amnesia over how that happened???

Huge permitting reform news: The Bureau of Land Management is giving geothermal energy exploration a categorical exclusion from environmental review under NEPA. If you care about clean energy abundance, this is a massive win.

The emergency supplemental funding bill that passed the Senate with 70 votes has funding to replenish Iron Dome. There is no need for the House to craft new legislation or do anything tricky. Just pass the Senate bill next week. Anything else is an intentional delay.

The Senate passed a bill to support Israel, Ukraine and humanitarian relief by a huge bipartisan majority. The House could take it up next week. It has the votes to pass. Some things in politics aren’t simple. This is.

assessment at this point: iranian attack was designed to be easily intercepted and reset the bar on deterrence. next steps will depend on biden administration (and allies’) ability to keep israel from a direct military response on iranian soil. even so, plenty dangerous…

This idea that you have to be some crazy commie to care about aid workers and tens of thousands of civilians being killed is genuinely creepy. If disagreeing with Netanyahu is “selling out Israel” then the majority of Israelis are selling out Israel right now.
