I feel like half the people listed here are under the age of 40?

To clarify, I am not a fan of Duke basketball.
I spoke to a graduating class for the behavioral and social science school at Maryland’s Cole Field House years ago.
I closed with “All you have to remember is two words. The second one is ‘Duke.’”

@ArmandoNDK Disapproval of 100%!
I hate Duke the most.

EXCLUSIVE: “This account is based on seven months of reporting, including interviews with nearly two dozen people who expressed concern about Lewandowski’s role in the contracting process — including current administration officials, current DHS officials, industry sources who have done business with DHS and lobbyists." @NBCNews

The president said last week that the war was over in the first hour.
Today, the defense secretary did not flinch at reports that the Pentagon wants a $200B emergency supplemental appropriation from Congress.

@Anna_Giaritelli Congratulations on completing the project. It’s an amazing accomplishment.
I am deeply sorry for what you had to endure, and you have my eternal admiration for turning it into something productive that will surely help others.

Holding my book in my hand for the first time.
It comes out April 4, the anniversary of the day that I was assaulted in 2020. I chose that day because I’m reclaiming it. I will not be a victim any longer.

Corey Lewandowski and DHS contracts.
“He wanted payments — what some people would call a success fee,” said a person with knowledge of the meeting.
WH officials aware of “pay to play” claims.

This would be larger than any of the individual war supplementals for Iraq & Afghanistan (raw dollars, not adjusted for inflation).

There’s next to zero chance that the bill comports with the Byrd Rule, which means it would need 60 votes even in reconciliation.
Eric Daugherty@EricLDaugh
🚨 BREAKING: Sen. John Kennedy is now moving to put the SAVE America Act as RECONCILIATION, which only needs 50+1 votes YES! DO IT! 🔥 "We HAVEN'T TRIED." "If this bill is as IMPORTANT as everybody says — and I think it is — we're talking about the trust of the American people in our elections...we should try it through reconciliation." "We have yet to try crafting a SAVE Act that passes [reconciliation]!" This would be huge. All we need is 50 if this gets done.

I went to PA.
Wanted to talk to voters in a swing district in a swing state.
Specifically wanted Trump voters to see what they think of the war, gas prices, Term 2, and midterms.
Here’s what I found at a busy gas station in Millersburg.

The Orioles announced today that they will allow fans to enter their ballpark 2.5 hours before first pitch. That will allow them to watch Baltimore take batting practice.
The Nationals should do this too.
Fans should be able to watch their favorite players take BP. Kids should be able to try to get balls hit by James Wood and Dylan Crews. It enhances engagement, access, and interest. It would also cut down on lines to get into the game right before it starts. It might even also make the team more money based on opening concessions earlier.
