The Maine Republican Party is very upset that Troy Jackson told Susan Collins to “shut up.”
They’re perfectly fine with “Quiet Piggy.”

Trump “doesn’t have the basic qualities of a decent person, let alone a leader. He has the qualities of a sex predator, which he is; the qualities of a felon, which he is; the qualities of a bankrupter. He’s a fraud, & we’re seeing it all on display right now.” Ben Meiselas

I’ll believe when I see it. We’ve been let down repeatedly by the House and Senate since forever. I can’t believe some have grown a pair of balls.

Gordon Davis was one of the great men of our age. A renaissance pioneer with vision, persistence, artistry, and integrity. He was a mentor who inspired me with every meeting. A leader and accomplished businessman. RIP

With deep sorrow and regret I must report that President Donald J. Trump did not win this year’s Nobel Peace Prize. I know how devastated all of you must be. But inevitably, someday, in the not-too-distant-future, he will give the world something much greater to celebrate.

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.
This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.
Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.
Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.
Abolish ICE.

I spent my childhood terrified of quicksand, spontaneous combustion and the Bermuda Triangle. Turns out I should’ve been worried about my knees.

Republican Sen. Thom Tillis says in a new book that his deciding vote to confirm Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is the "biggest regret of my career" and that he also "should've stopped" RFK Jr. from becoming Health and Human Services secretary. to.pbs.org/4i4JblK

The crowd starts to applaud as Trump fantasizes about LA and San Diego being wiped out by a nuclear attack. WTF. This is not normal.

Let this be a very clear lesson: do not try to shame the shameless. They don’t care about lies. They don’t care. It’s about memes and money. They don’t care about shame or honor or dignity or decency. Vote them out if you have any shame or honor or dignity or decency.
Schmitt: We had information Jack Smith was at a basketball game. There was only one NBA game that night which is why I asked him if he was in Atlanta.
That's what these hearings are for. You ask questions, you get answers. Smith has perjured himself before, but… maybe he's a Caitlin Clark fan. We'll accept that.

Jack Smith: "Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation ... rather than accept his defeat in the 2020 presidential election, President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results and prevent the lawful transfer of power"

An amazing past two days offline. Incredible weather, 60s and sunny. Amazing meals outside in the sukkah. Wonderful moments as a family together. Just quiet and together. Really special. Was talking with my wife this afternoon about the virtues of going offline on a regular basis and how it's hard to describe the rhythm it gives to life unless you do it and she said "It really makes you feel like a family" and I think that's exactly right.
Without phone, music, computer, tv, car etc... you just feel really together.
