News: GOP senators are being told at lunch right now to expect a vote on the motion to proceed around 4:00pm, per multiple senators Leadership feels good they have the votes to proceed. Final passage still iffy. And some provisions could still be stripped out during vote-a-rama

BREAKING: Mike Lee pulls his public lands sell-off from the budget bill! This is a victory for all who hike, hunt, explore, and cherish these landscapes. Americans regardless of politics came together to keep the “public” in public lands. sierraclub.org/press-releases…

Shahed Ghoreishi’s firing — and the racist smears that followed from Laura Loomer and others — reveal something fundamental about Washington’s broken foreign policy debate. For years, anyone who has tried to inject sensibility, humanity, or even long-standing U.S. policy (as in
