This is *definitely* how you behave when you're trying to bring every resource to bear, rather than trying to cover up the unlawful behavior of your own personnel.
According to my sources, the FBI was initially open to a concurrent investigation with the MN Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (the state agency that would do this investigation). Trumpy U.S. Attorney Daniel Rosen heard about this and intervened, barring the FBI from cooperating with local police.

"Posting stupid memes after being accused of murder is not the response of a patriot who must answer to the public about the security of the United States and its people in uniform. It is not the response of a secretary of defense who values the advice of the officers who report to him."

This would be the best strategy. And also effective in pressuring those on the fence not to stick around and defect. Corporate Dems have to do something they rarely ever do: stick together. Or they'll all stick separately.
SENATE DEMOCRATS SHOULD LEAVE DC TODAY. Go home and talk to constituents. Tell them how they will suffer because the Current Occupant of the White House chose to do this and Republicans refused to lead. Get ahead of the shut down. share.google/QyaeCuiic7VZ...

I’m depressed that so many people here don’t seem to understand the point of this “strongly worded letter.” OF COURSE Trump/Republicans won’t budge on most of this stuff. Schumer/Jeffries know that. This is no longer about avoiding a shutdown but about making sure the public knows who to blame.
It’s time for Trump to address the Republican healthcare crisis. And avoid a painful government shutdown.

Indeed. The Lord did not command that we beat swords into ploughshares so that gaslighting grifters could farm rage.
Kirk is not a modern day St. Paul, despite what Cardinal Dolan says. The only thing that such myth-making achieves is fomenting resentment, curtailing dialogue, and stifling action to otherwise prevent this tragedy from happening again, says John Grosso.

This is actually a flat-out lie: The #MAGAMurderBill *specifically prohibits* anyone who gets kicked off of Medicaid for failing to meet the work reporting requirements from qualifying for ACA exchange subsidies (which means they couldn't possibly afford an exchange plan at that income level).
Mehmet Oz on people who don't satisfy work requirements for Medicaid: "We're gonna ask you to go on and do something else, like go on the exchanges, or get a job and get commercial insurance, but we're not gonna continue to pay for Medicaid for those audiences."

There are a number of House Republicans in swing districts claiming that the "big beautiful bill" they voted for does not cut Medicaid or increase the national debt. Just to be clear, this is a bald-faced, massive lie. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/02/u...

"Musk’s sojourn in government has revealed severe flaws in his character — a blithe, dehumanizing cruelty, and a deadly incuriosity. This should shape how he’s seen for the rest of his public life."

Updated this piece about how the Trump admin removed images of women and persons of color from websites. The good news is that the webpage about a NASA employee overcoming adversity was restored after she posted about it. The bad news? NASA then fired her. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/whitewashi...

There is no way that they completed all the standard steps to obtain refugee status.
The transfer of white Afrikaners to the US was fast-tracked after refugee resettlement officials came under pressure from top admin people to make it happen quickly, sources at NGOs who were informed of this tell me. Trump wanted this done. New from me: newrepublic.com/article/1953...
