Is the shutdown over? Not yet. Tonight’s vote was only step 1 of 5. There’s still another 60-vote hurdle, amendments, AND then the House. Pressure matters right now—especially on Kaine, Rosen, Hassan, Shaheen. Stay loud. youtu.be/mdFRfeGRKfI

Today is the day of the special election to fill the seat of former MN State Rep Melissa Hortman, who was shot by a right-wing extremist.

There would be an immediate cease fire if Russia immediately ceases firing.

Bove’s confirmation hearing for the 3rd Circuit is on Wednesday. His own former DOJ colleagues say they don’t trust him to be impartial. Watch the video & insist that your senators do too before they vote.

We’ll never know what could have been, but we do know they chose to believe him and not her, and now they are making up excuses for their votes that put us all in harm’s way. Don’t think this is a one-off.

The extreme right-wing Christians who run the US govt... join the extreme rt-wing Jews who run the Israel govt... in a war with the extreme rt-wing Muslims who run the Iran govt... ...and the rest of the world's believers & atheists would like to be left out of it.

Please don’t presume this is now an American president making a serious decision for the good of America, not a malignant despot desperate to be seen as a strong man.

Governor Tim Walz@governorwalz.mn.gov

Last year, we became the first state to build and open three veterans homes simultaneously.   I just signed a bill that fully funds the staffing and operations of these homes well into the future. I’m proud of Minnesota’s enduring commitment to better serve those who served us.

Jessica Tarlov: “He does these interviews and says I don't know, or I'm not sure. He was asked ‘do you need to uphold the constitution? I don't know, ask a lawyer’ … He may be in front of you, but that doesn’t mean that he’s not spewing utter BS.”

BREAKING: Scott Pelley just risked everything to make one thing clear: The attack on free speech isn’t coming—it’s already here. Journalists are being silenced, critics are being punished, and most of the media’s playing dead. This is state-sponsored suppression. This is dictatorship in real time.

Philip Bump@pbump.com

The Supreme Court holds that fascism is bad. Thomas and Alito dissent.

Minnesota DFL Party@dfl.org

MNGOP leaders in the Legislature are focused on catering to their extreme, far-right base, not on helping Minnesota. Here are six real bills that they have proposed:

Peter Sagal@petersagal.bsky.social

The opinion in the Perkins Coie case is, among other things, a barely patient dissection of the Government’s terrible lawyering. ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show...

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

Shout out to all the finance bros who didn’t give a shit about democracy, human rights, racism, homophobia, misogyny, the future of the planet or basic human decency and voted for the conman they thought was gonna be good for the economy. You guys are geniuses.

Andrew Tobolowsky@andytobo.bsky.social

I will say this - EVERYONE with power seems to be desperately hoping that unpopularity does the work that consequences need to do

Try not to laugh.

mtsw@mtsw.bsky.social

wow the three month orgy of breaking long-standing agreements, abrogating contracts and shredding the constitution has damaged the full faith and credit of the united states that the entire global financial system rests on? might've been a bigger deal that Tim Walz' national guard retirement idk

stop calling things deportation just because they call it deportation. -You cannot legally deport people without due process. -You cannot legally deport citizens. -They are defining down deportation to break the law.
