"Resistance to Mr. Trump was greatest among @JohnKasich supporters...6 in 10 would not vote for Trump in November." nyti.ms/1VB0GL1

So: Democrats could win Texas amidst an oil boom fueled by a Republican war, but lose Michigan amidst a manufacturing crisis caused by Republican tariffs? #CandidateQuality
New @CNN polls show Jackson in ME + El-Sayed in MI each winning only 71% of voters who disapprove of Trump. Every D Sen candidate in Trump 1 except Gideon v. Collins won 89% or more of Trump disapprovers. Sets up key question: can Rs really hold Dems to so few through November?

I can’t wait until this administration is over because a lot of people are going to jail.

"The president appears to be ordering the U.S. government to publish findings, construct legal arguments and affix the authority of the American state to a falsehood manufactured for the apparent purpose of evading the nation’s highest court." washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

.@COSProject says a "runaway" Article V convention is impossible, because it will be limited to the three amendments named in state resolutions. Then why ask which OF TEN AMENDMENTS supporters "most want to see proposed"? conventionofstates.com/surve…

If self-awareness is the highest form of intelligence, Gemini is already there. (If safety in aviation is your goal, not so much.)

How much longer does IRG want to hold on? Until we exhaust our strategic reserves, and pain at the pump goes parabolic. When? IEA Executive Director Fatih Birol says it could be by July or August. brookings.edu/articles/from-….

I’ve gotten a ton of messages asking how Anika handled her first night with Rush and if she rose to the moment. I’ll let this clip of TOM SAWYER (and the response from the crowd) serve as my answer.
Rush returned last night with style, class and a killer set list. An emotional evening with many tributes to the late, great Neil Peart including an appearance from the amazing Aimee Mann singing on TIME STAND STILL. Not many dry eyes in the house.

For 50 years, @NASA's Aviation Safety Reporting System has been a reminder of government at its best: constructive, collaborative, efficient, transparent. As pilots, let's keep contributing to it. And keep learning from the past for a safer future. myemail.constantcontact.com/…

The difference between "drain" and "detox" is the difference between "giving up" and "rolling up your sleeves." It's what's been missing from our politics for a long, long time. @Principles_1st is full of people who are ready to get started.
Again: the next administration needs to go on a complete anti-corruption spree. New criminal laws, full audits, ethics reform, prosecutions, oversight boards—the whole nine yards. We don’t need to drain DC, we need to competently and methodically deep-clean and detox it!
