Only ever experienced true PTSD a couple of times. Now is one of those times. I keep experiencing terrifying flashbacks to last year’s Los Angeles fires. Scary. Had to pack the Hounds and kittens in my car and flee our apartment, assuming it would burn down. Terrifying stuff. #Spokane #wildfires

Schiff: "He waited until he became president. Why did he wait to bring this $10b lawsuit? He waited so he would have the power of the presidency to leverage the IRS and DOJ to make him more money!"

Booker: "Ghislaine Maxwell is sitting in the lowest possible confinement after giving no information that helped us get one more investigation started and has been silent, and the man responsible for that we're about to make the attorney general of the US ... this is farcical."

BREAKING: A reporter asked Mike Johnson at a press conference today, “Should we bother asking you any questions about Max Miller, Trump’s latest Iran deal, or his Capital One scandal, or have you not heard about any of them yet?"

Very cool. Congrats for Marc & his firm. We are ALL most indebted to Marc. A paid subscription to his Democracy Docket feels like the very least most of us can do to help ensure free & fair midterms - the most important midterms in history.

On this day in 1944, the Gestapo found Anne Frank and her family in their Secret Annex. Her diary stands as a warning against hatred and persecution. Eighty years later, we should recognize the warning signs before it’s too late.🙂‍↕️

Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.
