- @IAmPoliticsGirl describes in plain English what the search warrant of Trump's FL castle means -- and doesn't mean. As usual, she's "right on target, so direct." She could replace WJC as "secretary of explaining things." #SearchWarrant #TrumpThere’s a lot of drama & misinformation surrounding the Mar-a-Lago search. Let’s just lay out the facts…
- Stefanik, McCarthy, et al, hid in a secret location to protect themselves from the January 6 “hostages.”This is revealing: Vulnerable Republicans are running away from Elise Stefanik's vile claim that 1/6 rioters are "hostages." Shockingly, it turns out siding with Trump and the insurrectionists is toxic in tough districts. This will get worse for Rs. 1/ newrepublic.com/article/178044…

- Ukrainians will really suffer if Ivanka’s father becomes president again, since he will abandon them so Putin can win his war.When Ivanka takes a break from her world travels and life of inherited wealth and leisure to act like she is Mother Theresa after doing a photo op, it comes off as pretty inauthentic and weird.
- Line isn't recycled. It's copied fr another source w/o credit. That's plagiarism.This was probably the most memorable line in Donald Trump Jr.'s speech and it's apparently recycled x.com/thedailyshow/s…

- False equivalency feeds the right’s disbelief in science, evidence, and facts. Kellyanne Conway’s “alternative facts” are fueled by false equivalency.That way, they won’t get ripped by the right as having a liberal bias!

- 1988 Dem nominee Mike Dukakis flubbed last pres. debate. Attempting to recover, he gave Nightline anchor Ted Koppel informal an exclusive interview to demonstrate he has passion that was absent in the debate. It didn't work. George Stephanopoulos worked on that race. So did I.
