Chris Murphy: "I think it's likely the United States that carried out this attack on this school. I think it's unforgivable under any circumstances, but the fact this was one of our first targeting decisions speaks to the incompetence of our leadership at the Dept of Defense."

Shapiro on SOTU: First off, it was boring. It was poorly delivered, and it was too damn long. This dude, whoβs the worst orator of our time, did two hours. He comes off as totally unhinged. Heβs like spitting everywhere, and heβs lying constantly about things.
For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:
Tax cuts for the rich
...donβt trickle down
Boosting military spending
...doesnβt bring peace
Slashing regulations
...doesnβt create jobs
Folks, weβve seen this all before.
Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and itβs good sheβs gone.
But this doesnβt change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.
AOC: This is about actual crimes happening in front of us. This is about shredding the Constitution and plunging us into war. This is about taking crypto money and money launderingβ¦ So if youβre asking me if Iβd support impeachment, I do

Susie Wiles is wearing an Apple Watch during a highly classified meeting on Iran.

This is psychotic.
Khanna: I think that there was some sexism in the way Secretary Clinton was treated. She was treated worse than President Clinton was treated.
Welp
I guess we are just paying these people to fly around making workout videos and attending sporting events.
Let me know when any of them are held legally or morally accountable.
Our federal government killed a disabled genocide survivor and is covering up for a child rapist. And that is just todayβs news. It is just unconscionable to be treating this as normal or acceptable in any way.

Yes, weβre angry about what Donald Trump is doing to our country. But even more than that, weβre heartsick over the countless ways in which he is destroying this nation.

Gov. Abigail Spanberger: "In his speech tonight, the president did what he always does β he lied, he scapegoated, and he distracted. He offered no real solutions to our nation's pressing challenges, so many of which he is actively making worse."
In competitive authoritarianism (US right now) there's often a "loyal opposition" that's essential to the regime. They are so wedded to "decorum," they go along with rites & rituals that help regime prop up veneer of normalcy, undermining clear view of regimes actions & aims.
Judge Cannon claims that she *strains* to find an example where a special counsel released a report after in indictment that did not result in a finding of guilt. Hereβs one off the top of my head: Sussman, who was charged and acquitted, is mentioned 311 times in Durhamβs final report.
New in PN: Trump is about to start a war he hasn't bothered to explain
"Heβs about to write a new chapter in the ignominious history of presidents thinking they impose their will by dropping bombs on foreign countries, yet he himself doesnβt seem to know why, let alone how itβs supposed to end."

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes.
$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst".
Renee Good and Alex Pretti were unavailable for commentβ¦.
Donald Trump is the biggest threat to US national security.
Laws should be passed that invalidate presidential candidates who can not pass a security clearance, or have been convicted of a felony.
France's spat with the U.S. ambassador to Paris has taken another turn with the French foreign minister now saying the top U.S. diplomat in France must explain himself after ignoring a French summons. n.pr/4tQhxwC
