#BREAKING: Rep Ro Khanna: “The reality is when President Obama left…we had 97% of the enriched uranium out…we didn’t have 13 American service members dead…we never had gas go up from $2.30 to $4…you know why? Because Obama actually did his homework…All Trump did is listen to Netanyahu. That’s his entire foreign policy…I resent the fact that Israel is going to tell the United States what to do. The American president should call the shots in this country.”😳

U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito leaned on an erroneous claim that Black voter turnout now tops white voter turnout, in his Callais v. Louisiana ruling that gutted the Voting Rights Act, reports The Guardian. democracydocket.com/news-alerts/sc…

The man building a ballroom with foreign steel probably shouldn’t call himself the champion of American steel. But as you learned from the Epstein files, I’m open to working across the aisle. So how about signing my steel bill to actually rebuild the American steel industry?

Prices are spiraling, families are hurting, and all Republicans care about is building a Marie Antoinette ballroom for their billionaire parties.
Jake Sherman@JakeSherman

NEWS in AM: THE $1B to secure TRUMP's ballroom is in trouble. Moderate Republicans have been chatting with leadership, W.H., each other, saying they cannot vote for it. Politics are too tough, they say. “A first-year poli sci major would know not to ask members to take this vote and we hope the speaker does too,” one House Republican told us. Another House Republican put it this way: “There is no way in hell that this will get 218 votes on the floor.” punchbowl.news/archive/5826-a…

This paint job—if you can call it that—is costing you $7 million, America, because Trump gave a no-bid contract to a pal This would have been Exhibit A of the sort of shit DOGE was actually *supposed* to be looking for when it was instead cutting lifesaving scientific research

Hungary’s parliament sings “Ode to Joy” — the anthem of Europe — after Péter Magyar is sworn in as prime minister. Hungary is once again a proud member of the European Union.

What has me worried — what we all need to focus on — is that something important in our democracy broke last week, and we are only beginning to see the fallout. democracydocket.com/opinion/the-go…

Virtually every gram of highly enriched uranium Iran now has in its possession--enough to make 10 nuclear weapons--was produced after Trump withdrew from the Iran Nuclear Deal in 2017...without any effort to replace it. Trump tore up the deal, so Iran got back to work.

A monumental collapse. CNN confirms JD Vance has suffered a staggering 21 point swing into negative territory, making him the most unpopular Vice President in modern history. The Trump administration's extreme agenda is completely alienating the American public.

This is an account close to the Iranian leadership. We are now seeing the shape of why Iran agreed so enthusiastically to this "ceasefire". They will control and toll the Strait for the first time. They keep their nuclear program. They keep their missiles. What a disaster.

۰۴:۳۶/ ۱۹ فروردین طی ‘توقف آتش’ دو هفته ای، تنها حدود ۱۰ تا ۱۵ کشتی با موافقت ایران، در هماهنگی با نیروی دریایی سپاه و پس از پرداخت عوارض از تنگه هرمز رد خواهند شد و امریکا متعهد است تمام اموال بلوکه شده ایران را آزاد کند. تنگه هرمز به هیچ وجه حتی پس از توافق نهایی به شکل سابق، ‘باز’ نخواهد شد. علاوه بر این امریکا متعهد شده در این مدت از هر نوع جابجایی نیرو خودداری کند. در این مدت مذاکرات بر اساس طرح ۱۰ ماده ای ایران که در متن بیانیه شورای عالی امنیت ملی به جزئیات آن اشاره شده، برگزار خواهد شد. در صورت عدم توافق، جنگ مجددا از سر گرفته می شود.

Again, there is nothing the United States or its interest or allies gain from supporting Orban. It’s even against the Trump admin's own stated goals, as the WSJ points out. This is purely a Kremlin mission and Trump and Vance are carrying it out obediently.
Nate Sibley@NateSibley

WSJ: "Mr. Vance likes to say Europe should play the leading role in supporting Ukraine, since Ukraine doesn’t matter to the U.S.—yet Mr. Orbán is obstructing a European financial plan to do exactly that. The Hungarian is also trying to deepen commercial ties with China." wsj.com/opinion/jd-van…

Even a quick Iran deal won't undo the damage already done.⁣ ⁣ Stock losses, years of elevated oil prices, and a $350B defense budget increase that quietly translates to $3–4K in added taxes per household.⁣ ⁣ The economy doesn't just snap back. Some of this is permanent.
