        I love these Republicans who find their moral center and their spine only once they've committed to leaving politics ...

        If Tillis finally understands the danger, he needs to to find a way to convince Murkowski, Collins, and possibly McConnell, Curtis, and Young to temporarily caucus with Democrats.

          The Pauline conversions are taking way longer than I'd like, but I welcome these defectors with open arms. We need them.

              White House says Trump did not instruct DoJ to investigate Powell
              Speaking to reporters outside the White House today, press secretary Karoline Leavitt said that the Donald Trump did not instruct the justice department to investigate Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell.

              “The president has every right to criticize the Fed chair. He has a first amendment right, just like all of you do,” Leavitt said. “And one thing’s for sure, the president has made it quite clear, Jerome Powell is bad at his job. As for whether or not Jerome Powell if a criminal, that’s an answer for the Department of Justice.”
