Policy wonk, public servant, liberal, Indian American, mom, wife. Not in that order. Feel lucky to serve Pres Biden and VP Harris.

Chasing R's out without confirming all nominees, sending House R's fleeing from Epstein and now Texas D's leaving the state. THIS is how you fight fascism.

Padilla: "Let's understand why Trump is asking for 5 more seats out of Texas. It's bc his policies, especially his economic policies, has been so bad ... if Rs were confident of their policy agenda, they'd be eager to defend, but they know they're in trouble. They're trying to rig the system."

"We had a bad print on jobs. I did not agree on whacking the commissioner. I don't like that.. whacking statisticians makes no sense whatsoever."

Something I've changed my mind about is how much of the war on inflation that was central to the birth of neoliberalism was an actual product of mass opinion and not just elite desire for austerity and the disciplining of labor.

Not talking about immigration while GOP talks about it non stop is a recipe for disaster- as we just learned from the last 4 years.

M: Who was in office at the time?

T: Bush

M: No. Obama was in office

TAPPER: Not true
