Excited to announce I’ve decided to feature an idiom of the week. Here’s the first one: “Little Marco” [ˈlidl m AH r - k oh] •A total retreat from previously held principles and refusal to acknowledge reality in the moment of existential threat. Origin: 2016 GOP primary.

I don't understand his point. Isn't Kasich and Sanders joining forces a sign of the incredible mandate from prominent politicians across the spectrum that Trump must be defeated? This is DEFINITELY what I signed up for.

Trump claims that other countries are calling us to find out how we’re doing what we’re doing so well. I’m pretty sure that’s not true.

Hey, guys, just a reminder that Martha McSally’s presumptive challenger in the general election is @ShuttleCDRKelly and I hear he’s accepting donations on his website or something?

I didn’t realize it at the time, but leaving the Republican Party in the summer of 2015—when Donald Trump threw his hat into the ring and it was clear to those paying attention that the writing was on the wall—was among the most liberating things I’ve ever done.

As we speak, Joe Manchin is on stage, railing against dark money... at the summit hosted by No Labels... (a group funded by dark money).

@svdate If the president or anyone around him knew anything about Christianity, and especially about the traditions of the Episcopal Church, they would’ve known that this would only pave the way for faith leaders to condemn his ridiculous, divisive stunt.

If you can’t understand why it’s not enough to just vote Trump out of office—why we also have to eradicate his enablers in Congress—then consider that none of the latter have spoken out about this today, and tell me if that’s acceptable to you. I’ll wait.

Prediction: Trump will double-down on being anti-mask, will claim he’s been diligent w/mask use and it didn’t make a difference.
