BREAKING: Mark Wolf, appointed to the federal bench by Ronald Reagan, writes that he is resigning as a judge to have the freedom to speak out against the president's assault on the rule of law
On Tuesday, Virginians sent a message that was loud and clear — they want a Governor working to address rising costs and protect against the chaos coming out of Washington.

Whoever thought that “it literally tastes like it just came out of a restaurant” was an attracting line in an ad?

Replying to @jbarro
He didn't wait for permission to blow up boats off the coast of Venezuela or to shutter USAID. Seems like if he wants to pay food stamps or air traffic controllers, he would just tell Treasury to do it.

“A Wash Post analysis of multiple videofeeds found that Trump spent nearly 20 minutes apparently battling to keep his eyes open … The White House denied that Trump was dozing during the Oval Office event and suggested the question was inappropriate.” washingtonpost.com/politics/…

Now there are TWO lists the White House won't release. First it was the Epstein Files. Now it's who's paying for Trump's Golden Ballroom. Apparently, the only promises the President keeps are those that benefit himself and his billionaire friends.

For almost four decades, Nancy Pelosi has served the American people and worked to make our country better. No one was more skilled at bringing people together and getting legislation passed – and I will always be grateful for her support of the Affordable Care Act. She made us proud to be Democrats, and will go down in history as one of the best speakers the House of Representatives has ever had. Nancy, thank you for your leadership and your friendship. Michelle and I wish you and Paul the best in this next chapter.
I’m fighting to make your healthcare affordable. Republicans are building marble bathrooms and golden ballrooms and kicking kids off food stamps. Choose a side.

JD Vance’s family has spent $35M on vacations. Kash Patel used a $60M FBI jet to go on a date. Trump spent $98M to golf for 24% of the days of this term. All our tax dollars. And you think single moms getting $6 a day for SNAP is the problem?

Donald Trump is getting rid of the IRS Direct File program, which helped Americans easily file taxes for free. Just one of the many ways he’s going all out to make life less affordable for American families. federalnewsnetwork.com/it-mo…

I heard some old friends at @PodSaveAmerica were in town, so I decided to stop by. As we saw this week, we can change this country for the better. But it’s going to take all of us getting organized and having honest conversations about the best way forward.

Donald Trump has been ordered by a court, again, to fund SNAP benefits. The law is clear. They have the funding. Donald Trump must stop forcing families to go hungry during his shutdown.
HAPPENING NOW: Judge McConnell is sharply rebuking the Trump administration for what he said was defying his order to make full SNAP payments by Nov. 5. He has ordered USDA to make the *full* payment to states by tomorrow.

BREAKING: @SenTimKaine, @SenRandPaul and I just forced a vote to block an unauthorized war with Venezuela. Even if it fell short, the vote was bipartisan and an important step. But the longer Congress refuses to act, the more we risk getting into a full-fledged war.
BREAKING: A Trump-appointed judge rules Trump’s Portland military takeover unconstitutional. Judge Immergut permanently blocked Trump’s order to federalize Oregon’s National Guard — calling it a violation of the 10th Amendment beyond lawful authority. democracydocket.com/news-ale…

Newsom’s social media team is on a level we’ve never seen before
I was skeptical that Trump demolishing part of the White House to build a ballroom would be of interest to anyone outside of like Rachel Maddow viewers, but a very conservative NJ Republican told me this week it’s come up when he talks to independent voters. They hate it.
It’s actually so funny, and so grim, that it seems like the east wing/ballroom stuff really did it lmao
