'A confidential informant, or “CI,” is a mole run by law enforcement within a criminal enterprise. Not a “rat,” whose treachery is well known to his comrades, but a craftier, more duplicitous breed of rodent.'

Gov. Polis declared a state of emergency in CO and will make sure service industry folks get paid sick leave, is demanding out of pocket testing costs be waived and is opening up a drive-up testing facility.

Senate Republicans who represent 15 million fewer people than Senate Dems can block impeachment of a president who committed crimes worse than Watergate, lost popular vote by 2.9 million votes & suffered largest midterm election defeat in US history

Retweet if the lockstep 53-47 vote to conduct a coverup instead of a trial made you gag as it did me.

"What is different in the America of Trump is that hate has not only become more permissible in public, it is that grievance machine has turned it into a bond among the disaffected, a rallying cry." A thread by @djrothkopf.

.@ALIVELSHI @paulkrugman. Trump’s trade wars have nothing to do with reality. SO WHO REALLY BENEFITS FROM THIS MADNESS? Kochs? Kushner? Adelson? BOA?
There has to be more to this insanity than random acts of economic vandalism. SOMEONE GAINs. WHO IS IT (besides Putin).

The fact that Obama’s last 30 months outperformed Trump’s first 30 months is fact that should be in every story about the economy AND a devastating fact for the supply side dead enders who swear by tax cuts for the rich

I represent the great swing state of Ohio in the U.S. Senate. And too often I see pundits and national Democrats act like we have to choose between fighting for our progressive values or winning elections. That’s a false choice. The electability myth is a myth. - SB

Why is @SpeakerPelosi giving priority to marginalizing @AOC @AyannaPressley @RashidaTlaib & @IlhanMN (the “squad”) over unleashing the House to perform its checking function with every tool in the kit? Consider retweeting if you share my growing puzzlement and anger.
