Everyone keeps asking me how I’m feeling about early voting so far.
I’m feeling like nobody *actually* knows anything, and this is the most important midterm of our lives.
I’d rather be us than them, but we can’t get comfortable. We can’t get complacent.
Go vote like we’re down 3%.
Zelenskyy says Starlink restrictions REMAIN in Ukraine, crippling interceptor drones and military operations.
He says Ukraine has evidence the restrictions are DELIBERATE after testing Starlink systems in the EU, where they worked perfectly at speeds that cause connections to fail inside Ukraine.
Bloomberg reports that officials directly involved in an internal Pentagon investigation found that Peter Thiel’s Palantir Maven Smart System played a significant role in the February 28 U.S. strike on the Shajareh Tayyebeh Elementary School in Minab, Iran.
Gas prices hit $4.46 a gallon today — a gain of 17 cents over the previous week and $1.26 higher than the same point last year.
Diesel prices are up more than $2.74 from a year ago.
Families, farmers, and truckers are all getting squeezed.
Meanwhile...
WAPO is reporting that at least four more service members have died in the war in Iran than DOD is publicly acknowledging.
CNN is reporting that the US almost seized a Chinese vessel because AI incorrectly identified it as containing Iranian nuclear material.
Clown show.
Obama: “Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials from the White House press corps. You’re laughing, but this is what’s happening. It’s unimaginable that the same parties that are silent right now would have tolerated behavior like that from me.”

The President says he is going to ban CNN, MSNOW and Politico from the White House.
He’s trampling on our Constitution and the freedom of the press.
His corruption is staggering–and his attempts to cover it up won’t work.
Breaking News: A whistle-blower at the U.S. Postal Service said Trump officials were defying court orders with a “secretive, rushed” effort affecting voting by mail.
This is crazy. Alex is from Brazil, why would they deport him to Guyana?
He’s a longtime West Hollywood resident who has been following his immigration requirements. He wasn’t hiding. He wasn’t on the run. He showed up for his required ICE check-in.
And that’s where they detained him.
BREAKING: Bill Cassidy says he’s a YES on Todd Blanche, solidifying his legacy as the man who enabled RFK Jr. to wreak havoc on Americans’ health, and now the man who will let Blanche weaponize the DOJ like never before seen in history and cover up for Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes.
Dead or alive, Mitch McConnell is on extended medical leave — on your dime.
This is the same Mitch McConnell who voted against: paid family and medical leave for everyone else.
Let me get this straight...
Trump is blocking $1B in Medicaid payments to blue states over spurious accusations of mass fraud.
Meanwhile, he's literally pardoned over 70 convicted fraudsters — including a nursing home owner who stole over $1.3B from Medicare and Medicaid.
Hello?
Trump’s net worth has almost tripled since he’s been back in office.
He rugged his crypto followers for over $500 million.
Over $1.4 billion in total crypto profit.
Financial corruption hawks on the right, where you at?
The Supreme Court BARELY upheld Birthright Citizenship. They are two votes away from fascists deciding who gets to be a citizen or not. Anyone who doesn’t want to pack the court is not a serious person.
If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.
The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”
It’s about control.
lollllll -- Ossoff proposes a motion that would ban senators from trading stocks and crypto, prompting Sen. Lummis (who loves crypto) to immediately object
He’s threatening to sue the media over pool coverage.
What an unbelievable, petulant manchild.
Everyone knew he was going to fuck up the reflecting pool.
He fucked up the reflecting pool, and now he’s invented vandals (despite the fact that the pool is under 24/7 video surveillance) to blame.
The American people are tired of being lorded over by a group of sanctimonious pedophile conmen and their enablers. These lying criminals must be rounded up and locked up without mercy or hesitation. Yes, even Mike Johnson.
Staggering levels of corruption.
They’re using every possible lever of power to enrich themselves and their friends and families.
And the “party of fiscal responsibility” simply doesn’t care.
NEWS: A @lawfaremedia.org report finds that *97* Jan. 6ers who received clemency for their role in the attack were arrested, charged, or convicted of subsequent crimes—a number much higher than previously reported.
Incredible work by @katherinepomps.bsky.socialwww.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-...
Ossoff: He’s trying to put his face on the money. He's building a monument to himself . But see, Atlanta, he's doing these things now because no one will honor him when he’s gone… because he's a failed president and a national disgrace.
D+11 on a generic ballot probably looks something like 40 seats gained in the House - IF we don’t get complacent.
