The President is promising to commit war crimes. Gas prices are through the roof. Farmers are looking at the price of diesel and fertilizer and wondering if they can even afford to plant this spring. And Congress is on vacation.

Nats friends: had a few minutes to kill between calls and I wanted to see if people were dunking on Miles Mikolas. You did not disappoint. I love you people.

One of the biggest obstacles in negotiation is “refusing to take yes for an answer.” That’s where Tom Emmer and the House GOP are right now. By refusing to lower Americans’ health insurance costs to end the shutdown, they’re being stubborn- or showing us they’d rather argue than find a solution.

The word YES with a red circle and slash through it.

Worth noting that only 12 states have a greater population than NYC. Moreover, six states have fewer people than voted yesterday. I’d be careful about reading too much into this factoid.

Stealing a bit from someone else here: it's a good thing Congress isn't still alive to see this.

Breaking: The Trevor Project received a stop-work order last night on its contract with the national 988 suicide prevention hotline. The Trump administration is eliminating the option for LGBTQ callers to the hotline to press 3 and connect with someone who specializes in LGBTQ mental health.

I’ve seen a lot of hand wringing about the dangers of going to No Kings protests and gently, I want to tell people to chill a little. These are permitted marches and the point is to be out there and seen en masse. Please don’t scare off people who are maybe going to their very first protest
