My translator tells me "thoughts & prayers" is an American political expression that means "we'd rather have a secret police force than a weather service".

Elissa Slotkin isn't getting primaried anytime soon—she's not up for re-election until 2030. So this kind of statement from her is an unmitigatedly good thing.

Slotkin tweet:

The debate is no longer progressive vs. moderate; that is very 2017.

The debate is how do you answer one question: Is the second Trump administration an existential threat to democracy or is it bad but survivable?

I believe it is an existential threat.

Another one of those "Would be the biggest scandal in US history if any other president" stories. Shameless bribery and corruption beyond anything any other American could get away with. archive.ph/qL3F2#select...

Mr. Trump’s support for TikTok is relatively new. During his first term, he tried to ban the app in the country unless ByteDance sold it to an American company.

Mr. Trump has said they did not discuss the company. Mr. Yass helped found the trading firm Susquehanna International Group.
