Please don't overreact to Roberts Court decision on the contemplated USPS ballot moves They simply held that the injunction came too early in the process, before there was a final rule👇 Now we HAVE a final rule & we will litigate it. I'm as confident in our arguments here as in any of our cases!

On the Jeffries imbroglio, it looks at the very least like he got played for a sucker; to regain trust, he’d have to debrief House Dems and free them to talk to the press (or just discuss the Kushner meeting directly). But it’s a bad omen. www.offmessage.net/p/hakeem-jef...

We Need To Hear From Jeffries

He needs to be drawing redlines, not signaling compromise. Did he get snookered, or does he really intend to work cooperatively with thieves?

Degenerates like Rand Paul, Ron Johnson, and RFK Jr. should not be effectively immune (civilly, politically) for defaming civil servants—or any civilians—for propaganda or fundraising purposes. What they're doing to Anthony Fauci right now is horrifying. As things stand, they'll get away with it.

Republicans Should Suffer For Their Smears

There should be consequences, from civil liability to expulsion from Congress, for lying about citizens for propaganda or fundraising purposes.

New in PN: Moderate Democrats have a choice to make "They can spend the next three months reinforcing Republican messaging about their party & making it less likely Dems take power.

This Fauci hearing is the biggest explosion of right wing brainworms I've ever seen. Years of debunked and absurd antivax and "gain of function" conspiracy theories expressed as incoherent screaming at an 85 year old man. It's absolutely demented and embarrassing to watch.

This is why Senate Democrats should not vote for any CR until Trump releases every dollar he has stolen from blue states, universities, the CFPB, etc. This is not a government that deserves to be funded as if it’s normal.

@smencimer.bsky.social has never had a problem with the IRS. So she was surprised in May when she was told she suddenly owed a lot of money. "After reviewing the cryptic letter, we realized that we did not, in fact, owe any." But the issue has yet to be resolved. She's still on the phone, waiting.

The IRS is imploding.

The CEO says the agency is proving it's possible to have “less people and better results.”

After insisting the correspondents' dinner was worth reviving, the WHCA handed Trump a nationally televised platform to smear the very journalists it exists to represent, effectively turn the stage into a Trump rally. It was a disgrace. My latest @status.news www.status.news/p/the-white-...

As energy bills rise, the US DOE deletes money-saving energy efficiency tips from its website. You think it can't be this stupid, but it is: the libs like using energy efficiently, so to own the libs, we must waste energy, at any cost.

Why did energy-saving tips disappear from the Energy Department website?

As the country sizzled through heat waves, the government removed some of its most actionable advice about how to conserve energy.
