Lot of talk today upon Musk’s departure about how little money he saved us. True but irrelevant. This was a land grab. Musk is leaving because he got what he came for. This Palantir story is just the beginning. We’ll watch the long tail of this destruction unfold over years.

Joni Ernst said the quiet part out loud about the GOP’s spending bill: it's okay if people die as long as our wealthy donors get another tax break.

Once prices go up, they rarely go down - and inflation pricing is no exception. 76% of Americans said their income wasn’t keeping up with inflation. Tariffs and Trump’s ‘beautiful’ bill are only going to make things worse.

DOGE is not salvageable. It's been problematic from the start. It's underperformed on every measure and has been an abject failure. It should be shuttered immediately. Our Lindsay Owens not holding back on Scripps News following Elon Musk’s departure from Washington.

Millions of rent prices are set by obscure software like RealPage, which allows corporate landlords to collude and hike up prices. Housing costs are already through the roof; the last thing we need is greedy landlords using another tool to exploit renters. It's good to see DC

Trump’s ‘beautiful’ bill is the largest cut to the food assistance program in history. Millions of families - in states like Georgia, Mississippi, New York, and California - will have a harder time putting food on the table.
