I feel deep, deep gratitude toward every single person who takes a couple hours out of their busy lives to be a part of this movement to get money out of politics, put money in pockets, and pass Medicare for All.

GOP Rep. Tom Kean disappeared for 4 months & missed dozens of votes then finally surfaced, read a 5 minute speech saying he was at a mental health facility, refused to take questions from the press, and MAGA supports his reelection. But the Talarico hoax is career ending.

New in PN: Trump wants a race war. Minnesotans won’t take the bait. "They genuinely don’t understand how whites could care for immigrant communities in their midst and they’re going to keep trying to drive a wedge. But Minnesotans will do what they do: take to the streets to protect our neighbors."

🚨 IOWA SENATE SHOCKER: Josh Turek is within striking distance of flipping a seat Democrats haven’t won since 2008. Trump carried Iowa by 13 points in 2024. But anger over the economy & the Iran war has transformed the race. A Turek win would help Dems take back the Senate. Let’s finish this. #Vote

NYFed: By February 2026, Trump's tariffs had contributed 2.9 percentage points to consumer goods price inflation; without tariffs, goods prices would have fallen slightly. The tariffs raised the cost of imported goods AND their domestically-produced competitors.
