Far right extremists, inspired by Trump per Whitmer herself, tried to kidnap her. Trump himself later suggested it was a fake plot and mocked it. He called her βthat woman in Michiganβ and led a crowd that chanted βlock her up.β
Today Whitmer hugged him on the tarmac.

I'm old enough to remember when pro-life GOPers would accuse working class women of having babies just to get government money. Anyone remember that, or am I nuts?

In game theory, βstrategic uncertaintyβ is not βa strategy of creating uncertaintyβ.
It is what one faces from interaction when there is no dominant strategy.
If you want to create uncertainty in others about what strategy you are going to pursue, thatβs a βmixed strategyβ

If Democratic congressional leadership donβt lead an en masse halt to all legislative business after today, I donβt know why theyβre worth supporting. What moment could more demand a response of intractable and tedious opposition? Shut it all down, and refuse to budge.

@gomez.house.gov is hosting an organizing town hall to train his constituents to hit battleground districtsβand talk to real people about whatβs going on with the big bill in Congress, and how it will gut our healthcare and Social Security.
THIS is meeting people where they are.
Trump promised to:
1. Immediately lower prices
2. Immediately end the wars in Ukraine and Gaza
3. Cut taxes
Trump actually:
1. Increased prices
2. Failed to end the war in Ukraine of Gaza
3. Unilaterally implemented one of the largest tax increases in history
Never, ever let any Republican utter the phrase βfiscal conservativeβ again
