Congressional Research Service (CRS) reports are now available online, direct from the source! crsreports.congress.gov This has been a long time coming, and another legacy of Senator McCain. Congrats to Daniel Schuman and Kevin R Kosar and others who helped make this happen.

When I was 14, an ACT-UP activist interrupted the Easter service our family attended. I never worried he would assassinate my father or mother and understood why he was shouting in church. This week, someone sent a bomb (no “”) to my parents’ home. There’s no equivalency.

The fact that we are uncertain if the President can give the State of the Union is a good summary of the state of the union.

Curious if there are any House Democrats who really wish right now that they were led by a neophyte speaker instead of Nancy Pelosi.

This is one of the hardest but most important warnings for us today. Perpetrators were ordinary people. They accepted an ideology that rationalized and promoted hatred & evil. It became their everyday live. This is the scary part of the story.

I want to be Megan Rapinoe when I grow up.

You guys, I just had the weirdest dream that Joe Biden tried to take credit for Elizabeth Warren’s bill and then interrupted her! That’s so bizarre that I would dream that because of course Joe Biden would never so obviously be that much of a cliche. Wait...that really HAPPENED?
