We are going to vote in person again.
Mass mail voting is not some ancient inheritance of the American republic.
In its current form, it is a modern phenomenon and in many places a direct holdover from the COVID-election-fever-dream. COVID is over.
Pass the SAVE America Act.

Basic guarantees to follow existing law are not "concessions," despite what White House would like us to believe. If anything, this letter is just an admission that they aren’t following the law right now. If the White House wants to negotiate on DHS funding, it has to start with real reform, not superficial guarantees to endorse current law.

DHS SHUTDOWN OFFER. @NewsHour has obtained this letter from the WH to Senators outlining their offer for ending the shutdown. Read here. But basic points: - Expand use, oversight of body cameras - Limit immigration enforcement at schools, churches, sensitive locations (voluntary) - Enforce use of visible ID for DHS law enforcement. Officers must state their agency and identification when asked. - Will not deport US citizens, as per the law and will codify that US citizens should not be detained except if a law is violated. This was first reported by @PunchbowlNews I believe.

Every single last bit of this was obvious in 2022, and 2020, and 2018, and 2016. Armari endorsed Trump after January 6. A couple of months ago, he weighed in on ICE murdering two protesters -- on the side of ICE. Spare the latest monthly flip-flop.

@RobGeorge @SeanTrende Yes. She is honest and unafraid. A rare breed in Congress these days.
English
@bikesalsa @SeanTrende As we noted a couple weeks back, she was almost only House Democrat to call out the Chuy Garcia retire/primary nonsense — positioning her well to go after the GOP when they did the same thing in Montana.
English
She’s not really looney left, but yeah.

Kent lost a reliably red seat twice to some looney Democrat after primarying the Republican incumbent

@DouglasKMurray @nypost That's ridiculous. No one owes any politician loyalty. Carlson's a jerk, and Trump's a bigger one.

People should criticize Tucker Carlson for his positions, not frame it as backstabbing.
Donald Trump is the most powerful man in the world; he is not owed anything.
The same goes for every politician.
Elected officials should be pushed to the edge, mocked, attacked, and criticized.
This politics of loyalty and respectability is exhausting and has made elected officials lazy, demanding, and complacent.

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today.
I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.
It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC.
May God bless America.

Border Patrol in San Diego accused a young mom of punching an agent. Then the video came out. Solid reporting by @sofiareports and @inewsource inewsource.org/2026/03/19/bor…

@Kasparov63 Trump is a black hole of ego need. There will never be enough.

There are no limits. There is no floor. The trivial coin symbolizes the pure self-aggrandizement Trump applies to every aspect of his life and, now the US government.

A federal panel approved a commemorative gold coin design featuring President Trump, endorsing the rare step of putting a living, sitting president on American money. on.wsj.com/3PjQhqG

Gregory Brew@gbrew24
There's only one real road to de-escalation, and it runs through the Oval Office. Iran is not going to back down--their entire strategy is predicated on this. Israel will keep going until they are told to stop. This is Trump's call. When he wants it to end, it will end.

Exactly right, .@DHSgov. We'd be better off without TSA, and no worse off. It's a cludgy boondoggle left over from a single would be shoe bomber.
Billy Binion@billybinion
Just get rid of the TSA. Tests have repeatedly shown that it misses the vast majority of explosives anyway. It's mostly a form of security theater that makes everyone's lives more annoying. Abolish and privatize.

@bikesalsa I'm getting stronger. The surgical area where they put the kidney in is healed over. I'm starting to get my stamina back slow but sure. My appetite has gotten back to normal. The best thing is not having to do dialysis anymore. I don't think I realize just how much it drained me

It was 10¢ in 1971 and then became 25¢ later in the decade.

Last year, Donald Trump Jr. invested in a rare earths startup at a $200 million valuation.
Then three months later, the US government announced a huge loan backstop for the company and now it's worth around $2 billion.

@HaikuJonah @SohrabAhmari "Dart without feathers" is in excellent use here.
English
@SohrabAhmari I’d welcome MAGA Mea Culpas more, but Sohrab is such a dart without feathers that it’s hard to know what he’ll be aimed at next week, or tomorrow, or in four and a half minutes.

Ah, Trump has *NOW* “fully given way” to what people with functioning observational skills and moral compasses could see plain as frick’n day ten years ago.

On Day Three Thousand Six Hundred Fifty, with so much entirely predictable damage done and years more still to come, @SohrabAhmari couldn’t ignore the painfully obvious any longer and just had to speak up.
Welcome to the party, pal, I suppose.
