.@danpfeiffer: “What so many people in politics gets wrong is that *we* are the weirdos… We pay incredibly close attention to politics. Most people never see politics in their lives. They actively avoid it. And so if we bring our mentality to our communications and messaging strategies, we are just speaking to ourselves, not speaking to everyone else.” #WhatsNext

Looks like @angela_rye may need remind @stephenasmith that he does not have the range.

This is so funny. Every few years, conservatives get complete control of a city/state and try their policies, only to end in complete and total disaster In Kansas, Republicans launched one of the biggest state tax cuts ever, their signature and only actual policy (besides terrorizing immigrants and restricting women's reproductive rights). As a result, tax revenues dropped by $700 million in the first year, Kansas growth lagged neighbors, and they made such deep cuts to education that even Republicans admitted they severely screwed up and repealed their policies. This should have put supply-side economics in the dustbin of history but Republicans can't read so they fail to learn from history. In Oklahoma, Republicans cut taxes, resulting in a hole so large -- nearly $900 million -- that 20% of school districts had to go to 4-day weeks to save money. Nothing like screwing children so wealthy Republicans get wealthier! Oklahoma ended with about 1,500 fewer teachers and were forced to assign a mileage cap to Highway Patrol because they couldn't afford gas. Great governance, guys. Republicans later admitted their policies were idiotic and repealed many of their policies, raising taxes. Florida's coming disaster will be extremely entertaining to watch. When Republicans actually try to effect policy (rare -- usually they just demonize minorities), it almost always ends in disaster This is why I will never be lectured to by a Republican about their views on taxes
The numbers are truly staggering. Floridians voted to basically defund their local governments.

I’m proud of the race we ran. We helped drive turnout and broke the super majority in the state house and senate. 2028 is around the corner. LFG!

There is no way that Bari Weiss thought that this 60 Minutes would expose @AbdulElSayed . He cooked throughout the interview
MUST-WATCH - @AbdulElSayed 🔥: "Guaranteeing health care is NOT anti-capitalist... health/child care, good schools is like giving people pads to play the game... We don't have capitalist health care. MEDICARE FOR ALL IS capitalist. It frees up a provider market to flourish."

MUST-WATCH: "Until they drive prices UP... Americans aren't complaining right now that prices are too LOW." @AbdulElSayed masterfully schools Bari Weiss' CBS News(max) 60 minutes host @Douthat60 on the problem with living in corporatism, not capitalism -where monopolies and oligopolies reign supreme - and the importance of backing politicians who support the ability of labor UNIONS to push back so workers can earn more and live better lives... rather than politicians who are owned by corporations. (ahem, Mike Rogers)

Maury says the lie detector says that this is a lie.
Mike Rogers will be another rubber stamp for Donald Trump’s dangerous agenda. We can’t afford to give MAGA another Senate seat in November. #MISEN

Dear @stephenasmith - HBCU expert here. The FUTURE Act was done by Alma Adams, passed both chambers with veto proof majorities, then signed. Only $85M was for HBCUs; the $255M includes MSIs. The fund was started by Pres. Bush in 2007. Let's talk so you have good information.
Let me be clear! My NUMBER ONE reason for going to the White House was to address HBCUs directly with President Trump!

Please stop infantilizing Zacharia. She’s a 41 year old woman who actively vied for a job she was unqualified for, while lying for years about her resume. Treating her like a victim does her — and women — zero favors.

$10 gas cards in a poverty part of the city to buy a vote and then not care about those same people is pretty sad
