Both Senators Blumenthal and Whitehouse make a point of order that deliberative process and attorney client privileges don't apply in judicial nominee hearings. Whitehouse points that Bove is using the privileges selectively, and doesn't even have the right to invoke it.

The GOP budget bill would rip critical funding away from public schools and hurt our students—especially the approximately 7.5 million students with disabilities. We must work to strengthen our public schools rather than divert funds to a system that benefits a select few.

Also from Congressman Frank Pallone to RFK Jr: “It’s clear to me that the vast majority of scientists and medical professionals think your views on vaccines are dangerous.” “The science is not on your side. I just really think people are going to die as a result of your actions.”

"Trump lost against the Maine governor. He lost against Perkins Coie. He loses 80% of cases in court. Which makes those who’ve capitulated look that much more foolish, because if they’d just fought back, they would've retained what they thought they'd lose and their dignity would still be intact."

This is beyond asinine. Trump wants to reopen Alcatraz — a prison closed for over 60 years and now a national landmark — because, “The reopening of ALCATRAZ will serve as a symbol of Law, Order, and JUSTICE.” It’s a performative stunt, not a solution for anything!

Stephen Miller lied about Abrego Garcia’s case-claiming SCOTUS said “no district court can compel the president to exercise his..foreign powers” Rubio says he can deport ANY alien, even for “EXPECTED beliefs” Trump said “the home growns are next” STAND UP DON’T LET TRUMP TAKE OUR DEMOCRACY AWAY

Jeffries: The notion that everyday Americans need to absorb pain brought on by Donald Trump and his group of MAGA billionaires is ridiculous. Every single House and Senate Republican supporting this needs to be thrown out of office.

Russia’s leaders have said nothing about peace. They have made a list of demands on the US, the fulfillment of which allows them to broaden the war against Ukraine. And the US simply fulfills all of these Russian demands without question. That is only a peace process in the Orwellian sense.

Baldwin: "Trump a little over a week ago said on Fox News, 'I'm not touching Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid.' And he said it multiple times. The next morning he endorsed the Republican House budget which calls for nearly a trillion dollars in cuts to Medicaid."

Send Dems into rural America to talk about what Trump is doing. The Republicans are too scared and won’t show their faces…in the vacuum of messaging, there is power. Tell the folks who is hurting them. Point to the GOP. Be the foil to the shit that’s happening. Be the party of the people.
