Senate rules require federal office space. Instead, CHUCK SCHUMER leases a suite in a luxury Midtown tower surrounded by the private equity donors bankrolling him. You pay the pricey rent. Wall Street gets the access. Private equity keeps their loopholes.

President Biden: “What Trump did on January 6, 2021, should never be forgotten. It should follow him to the grave.” That’s absolutely right. Sadly, January 6, 2021 should also have been followed, no more than fourteen days later, with an 𝙄𝙢𝙢𝙚𝙙𝙞𝙖𝙩𝙚 criminal investigation and prosecution of Trump. The fact that a decision was made—and it was a decision—not to seek Trump’s accountability from the outset did unprecedented, and possibly irreparable, damage to the nation.
A first excerpt from Joe Biden's memoir:

I cannot believe we’re about to pretend that the biggest midterm victory since the Great Depression and the fact that the whole Democratic Party started speaking like Bernie Sanders and Mamdani are unrelated

The 2026 midterms were one giant tribute to Bernie Sanders. I couldn’t be happier for him. He’s earned every bit of it.

Pope Leo and Bob Dylan look like they're starring in an early '90s CBS drama in which two priests - one by the book and one who does things his own way - try to solve mysteries in their seemingly sleepy Midwestern town that hides a seedy underbelly.

Bernie Sanders-style economic populism is “moderate” election-winning politics in basically every district in America This is something that a few of us have known and been eyerolled/scoffed at for saying for literally 30 years…and now everyone else is realizing it. It’s amazing.

Considering this historic election validated literally everything @BernieSanders has been saying for 50 years, he deserves to be Time’s Person Of The Year. I’m not quite sure there’s anyone who deserves it more.

They told us our politics could never win. We kept organizing. A decade later, the movement Bernie inspired is setting the agenda. Now we turn that power into a better life for working people. Not me. Us.

While others use this moment to clamor for attention or steal valor, the Senator and his staff remain focused on advancing a humane policy agenda that delivers meaningful help to people.
Bernie calls for an "immediate first step" of: --Lowering Medicare age to 55 --Add dental, hearing, vision to Medicare --Guarantee coverage to every kid to age 19 Wants to use reconciliation to pass them

every step of the way, bernie drove substantive stakes into the ground. he demanded changes in the 2016 platform. forced concessions through the 2020 task forces. he is never satisfied and he does not rest. and, most importantly, he’s right and he’s been right for a long time.

Do you mean to tell me that after millions of people voted for real change, Democrats are about to elect a Speaker who backed away from Medicare for All, takes AIPAC and Palantir money, is a darling of private equity, meets privately with Jared Kushner, refuses to call what’s happening in Gaza a genocide, continues to send money for bombs to Israel, and refuses to say “abolish ICE”?

From the first White House pool report of the day, written by @svdate: “Be advised that there is no TV pool today because it is CNN’s turn and the president is mad at them.”
