Congratulations Susan Collins on such a creative, deft, and novel political approach - support an administration run amuck ripping apart the fabric of our healthcare and then at election time crow about some begged crumbs that may stave off disaster for a few months. #MESen #mepolitics #VoteBlue

Recycling and carbon capture were never meant to fix climate change. They were to shift the onus onto the community away from the oil companies.

Susan Collins, I'm sorry you're offended. I wasn’t mocking Susan Collins for getting road salt exempted from tariffs. I was mocking the fact that she didn’t stop Donald Trump from putting tariffs on everything else when she had the chance.

New Yorkers: Do you have a form of immigration relief called withholding of removal? Have you received an ICE letter summoning you to 26 Federal Plaza? Here’s what  you can do:

1. Call our Immigration Legal Support Hotline at 1-800-354-0365, or call 311 and say "Immigration Legal" for free, confidential help in your native language.

2. Fill out our intake form to get help from the Rapid Response Legal Collaborative: nyc.gov/RRLC

3. Make a plan. Make sure you have an emergency contact and that someone you trust has your A-number. Talk to a lawyer before making any decisions.

Slander is spoken; libel is written. But this isn't either of those. It's detailed reporting from a respected outlet with damning evidence. And "most consequential Commerce Secretary in modern history" is as impressive as "shortest NBA player from Luxembourg"
Speaking on behalf of Lutnick, the White House said: "The BBC's pathetic and desperate attempt to slander Secretary Lutnick will do nothing to change the fact that he has been the most consequential Commerce Secretary in modern history."

PSA: The Trump administration changed the form used to register and request absentee ballots, removing the checkbox for US citizens who have never lived in the US(even though some are eligible to vote under state law). The change could block eligible voters and was made without proper public notice.
