Soon, the majority of government shutdown days *in all of US history* will have happened on Donald Trump's watch.

Keep taking videos of what ICE is doing. @govpritzker.illinois.gov is right, document what’s happening. This is why they hate journalists so much.

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

Q: Why do you think Trump is resisting the release of the Epstein files? Massie: "It's gonna be embarrassing to some of the billionaires, some of the donors who are politically connected to his campaign. I also think Democrats are gonna be implicated.There're probably intelligence ties too."

Interesting shutdown politics thread by health policy expert and former OMB official Topher Spiro.

Agree with @ezraklein: Democrats must not be party to a government funding bill that does not meet key demands. As a former OMB official, here's what Democrats could demand:

Household electric bills are up 10% nationally since Trump took office. Meanwhile, household gas prices rose by 56%. Energy costs are set to go up more as the Trump-Republican budget bill guts clean energy projects. Remember how the entire election was about lowering prices?

94% of teachers have had to dip into their own pockets to buy school supplies. An estimated 1 in 6 have second jobs during the school year to make ends meet. The average Wall Street employee got a record $244,700 bonus last year. Something has gone terribly wrong.

Stephen Miller tried to claim only real "Americans" built the Empire State Building, but he left out the true stories of the Indigenous ironworkers who actually did. The Mohawk Skywalkers helped shape America's skylines—and shatter the lie behind Miller’s whitewashed nostalgia.
