Someone needs to explain to Trump that the worse Republicans do in the midterms, the better it looks for him. Just goes to show the party is utterly lost without him on the ballot! He’s literally the only Republican who has the juice. (Natalie, if you see this, please print and share.)

Vibes in Georgia. Most Democrats have given up hope of winning the governor's race. Most Republicans have given up hope of winning senate race. Some Republicans worry Ossoff will carry KLB to victory (possible but unlikely). Some Dems worry Jackson will carry Collins to victory (highly unlikely)

The Trump Administration admitted in court that it canceled nearly 300 energy projects in states that didn't vote for Trump—and then lied about it.   These projects would have created jobs, lowered energy costs, & invested in communities. Instead, Trump used taxpayer dollars to play politics. (1/2)

UPDATE: Letters from Leo can now independently confirm that the meeting took place — and that the Vatican was so alarmed by the Pentagon’s tactics that Leo shelved plans to visit America. Some officials saw their reference to an Avignon papacy as a threat to use military force against the Holy See.

NEW: A stunning new report claims that the Pentagon summoned Pope Leo XIV’s top American diplomat and threatened him after the U.S.-born pontiff gave his January state-of-the-world address. Leo used the address to denounce a world ruled by “a diplomacy based on force” and “zeal for war.”

Seeing all the posts from @democrats.org in Congress calling on their Republican colleagues to stand up to Trump and stop him from committing war crimes. Right... The crimes are a feature, not a bug, of the Republican party. They like this. They want this. Why would they stop it?

Can we just invoke the 25th Amendment and set up an elaborate Truman Show sort of set up for Trump? Let him think he's president, that he has blown up a country and people liked him doing it? It has to be cheaper to do that than it is to live with the consequences of letting him be the president

If they can’t blame the victim, they move on to blaming the community, city, state. It’s a classic framing contest and they’re working within group to find a strategic frame that their audiences can use to place blame on the other side for atrocities their eyes (on the video evidence) can’t deny.
