Was there yesterday. It’s got a good vibe.

Wow, the trade union that represents America’s 3 million construction workers just said the Senate’s big bill would be “the biggest job-killing bill in our country’s history.”

They think it threatens up to 1.75 million construction jobs.

you notice push came to shove? Amy is not among the ladies

I signed the final bills Melissa Hortman shepherded through the most narrowly divided legislature in the county. All of them bipartisan.

We debated, we found common ground, and we compromised.

That’s how democracy should function.

The most consequential Speaker in state history.

An orange leopard ate his face.

I waitress while I run for Congress. I know what it’s like to stretch a paycheck, juggle bills, and still show up for your community.

Washington needs more people who live like us — not just talk about us.

Derrick Van Orden talks the talk. I'll walk the walk.

I’m begging politicians to stop saying “Let me be clear” at the beginning of every statement.

“At the end of the day” can go too.

“Tasted a little tear gas— tasted like fascism”

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

Wake up Congress.👇

The great @suzannevega.bsky.social releases “Luka” as a single this weekend in 1987.

Upon hearing it, Prince (whom she never met) sent a letter. “‘Luka’ is the most compelling piece of music I’ve heard in a long time,” he wrote. “There are no words 2 tell you all the things I feel when I hear it.”

OLD: What is a woman?

NEW: What are groceries?

Just curious, what’s the tariff on a $400 million jet from Qatar?

With all the talk of product shortages , I think it should be said that products will first find their way to densely populated areas first and everywhere else, last

This certainly will hurt all those red counties. How they react to their shelves being everything will define the midterms

People are NOT understanding what empty cargo ships from China means.

It means no work for dock workers. No work for truck drivers, no work for retailers, fewer dollars circulating. The cascade effect is just mind boggling.

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.

The Attorney General is so unserious.

If you’re a prosecutor who is serious about obtaining a conviction, you don’t go on Fox and talk about the (alleged) facts of the case like this.

Has Bondi read the Justice Manual? Has Bondi heard of pretrial publicity motions? How about bar ethics rules?

Wisconsin's adventures with line-item vetoes Laws are like sausages...

Democratic Governor Tony Evers has successfully increased school funding for the next 400 YEARS in Wisconsin by crossing out a few numbers in a bill to change it from “2024–25” to “2425.”

The state Supreme Court just upheld his right to do so.

at this point 2025 feels like being awake during surgery

Personally, I think it should be front page news for at least a month if a sitting US President is using falsified evidence to try and deny due process to a man who has committed no crime, but that’s just me

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration.

So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives.

So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

Fear has a way of being contagious.

But courage is also contagious.

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers.

Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.
