If the big announcement is that he's been dead the whole time and he rapidly decomposes into a pile of bugs at the podium that proceed to swarm everyone in the room, I will reluctantly have to admit that that's pretty cool

Democratic Whip Katharine Clark got it exactly right: โ€œDonald Trump just slapped a major tax on every person and business in America. Families will pay hundreds more at the grocery store and the gas pump. Everything from cars to kitchen appliances will skyrocket in price.โ€ Sheโ€™s got it!

Here's your lede: With bodies still being fished out of the Potomac River, Donald Trump went on a partisan, racist and entirely unsubstantiated rant today, blaming diversity hiring and Democrats for Mondayโ€™s calamitous collision between a passenger jet and a military aircraft..

NEW: My staff has confirmed reports that Medicaid portals are down in all 50 states following last night's federal funding freeze. This is a blatant attempt to rip away health care from millions of Americans overnight and will get people killed.

He orchestrated a coup. It failed.

He was a convicted felon.

He rose to power on a wave of divisive propaganda and hateful anti-immigrant rhetoric.

He promised to make things great again.

He threatened to annex his neighbors.

I'm referring, of course, to Adolf Hitler.

Cecile Richards, former Planned Parenthood president and feminist activist, has died Richards died Monday of an aggressive brain cancer. She was 67.

โ€œWhen women are free to make their own decisions about their lives and to follow our dreams, we are unstoppable.โ€

Cecile was a force of nature. May her memory be a blessing.
