.@SenCortezMasto calls SAVE America Act a "shameful and disingenuous attempt to interfere with our elections and make it harder for American citizens to vote" by Trump & GOP leaders. She underscores that, under the bill, a Nevada REAL ID wouldn't be enough to register to vote.
Q: "Why didn't you tell U.S. allies…about the war before attacking Iran?" President Trump: "We wanted surprise. Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor?"
Just spoke to @POTUS about our European allies’ unwillingness to provide assets to keep the Strait of Hormuz functioning, which benefits Europe far more than America. I have never heard him so angry in my life. I share that anger given what’s at stake. The arrogance of our allies to suggest that Iran with a nuclear weapon is of little concern and that military action to stop the ayatollah from acquiring a nuclear bomb is our problem not theirs is beyond offensive. The European approach to containing the ayatollah’s nuclear ambitions have proven to be a miserable failure. The repercussions of providing little assistance to keep the Strait of Hormuz functioning are going to be wide and deep for Europe and America. I consider myself very forward-leaning on supporting alliances, however at a time of real testing like this, it makes me second guess the value of these alliances. I am certain I am not the only senator who feels this way.
NEW: Teresa Benitez Thompson (D) has left her job as @AaronDFordNV's chief of staff, citing her commitment to #NV02. Her last day working for the AG was Tuesday and she filed to run on Wednesday. "There were just not enough hours in the day to do both things," she told me.
