Judge Beryl Howell -DDC - has been doing absolutely heroic work in upholding our Constitution against the depredations of tRump & co. for several years now, and in no understated fashion. Judge Howell has crossed paths with tRump and his people repeatedly, and never has she given in to bogus legal arguments. Long may she continue to defend the rights of all citizens who run afoul of petty fascism from the likes of the Orange Felon and his Rasputin, Elno.
All hail TPM for their consistently good coverage and judicious selections!
Speaking of judicious, we should all salute the Article III judiciary who are now the front line of resistance against the coup and are retarding its advance
Since the Senate Democrats have not the strength to stem the storm, their best course of action is not to make an empty gesture to satisfy the voters that their representatives have not become mere wax manikins, but instead to accept the poison pill of the CR and let the further mischief the administration do add to the enormous backlash that is building.
The midterms are coming and we shall start rolling back the tide as it loses its impetus, entangled in lawsuits, boycotts, demonstrations.
Thank you for all the updates. MTG has no clue…She’s part of the “not congressionally” nominated/formed “DOGE” subcommittee—there should be no link to Tesla because Elon is just a consultant (?!?) & of course, there would be no conflict of interest or anything….(?!??)
Democrats need to hold firm; anything else offers license to Trump and Musk to continue what they are doing. I don't want people to suffer in a shutdown, but people across the government are suffering now through firings, executive orders. Stand up to these despicable, anti-democratic, revenge seeking morons.
TPM has been an extremely valuable source of information and well worth my time and money.
I have been following the budget fight in the Senate through the newsletter and Josh Marshall's posts on Bluesky. My friends and I have been calling Senators Warnock and Ossoff to urge them to vote NO on both cloture and the Republican budget.
After reading the Punchbowl article, I don't know what to do. Angry that the Dems can be blamed for a government shutdown, even with a GOP-controlled congress. Guess it helps to have a constituency that believes anything they see on Fox News.
thank you for keeping track of all of this. I deeply appreciate hearing the news through the lens of your integrity.
I met Judge Howell when she and I were working the staff benches on Senate Judiciary back in the day. Brilliant, and not to be messed with.

The very occasional reminder that this nation never faced a greater enemy than its domestic right wing.
An ancient rant now vindicated.

Well, I really appreciate that David especially since I expressed a view different from many on the advisability of rejecting the CR.
I especially like your profile picture. It reminds me of a time when both I and they were younger.
As were we all.

Well, I rather appreciate that David, especially since I expressed a view contrary to many on the advisability of rejecting the CR.
I particularly like your profile picture. It reminds me of myself in the mountains when both I and they were younger

Well, I rather appreciate that, David, especially since I express a variant opinion on the CR.
I especially like your profile picture. It reminds me of myself in the mountains when both I and they were a bit younger.
As were we all.
