Best take I've seen so far in regards to Trump's assination attempt.

Mi reporte ... I dined in Mexico City four times in the past year, checking on my favorite old haunts around Centro and some newer gems. Poured my heart and every last bit of expertise on this one. I hope you read, share, and ... buen provecho! @latimes 🥲 latimes.com/food/list/best-m…

303 Creative has never sold wedding websites. There was no gay couple looking for her services. Still, she admits she entered the public market in order to discriminate against LGBT people, citing her faith and a "calling from God." The fact this case was even heard... #SCOTUS

After Trump’s arraignment, he stopped at Miami’s popular Cuban restaurant Versailles and promised supporters he was buying “food for everyone.” It turns out he left without paying for a single item. miaminewtimes.com/restaurant…

Ok, then undo the yacht and private jet tax breaks the GOP passed for themselves. Why should single moms and veterans have to pay for the GOP’s giveaways to the rich? Especially when you don’t even have the votes of your own caucus?
Washington has to spend less. It's as simple as that.

There were not fine people on both sides of Charlottesville. The January 6th rioters were not good people. End of story.

Harlan Crow paid the tuition of Justice Clarence Thomas's grandnephew the entire time he was a student at a private boarding school, a former administrator tells ProPublica. Thomas didn't report the payments on his annual financial disclosures. propublica.org/article/clare…

We have a sacred obligation to care for the men and women who fought to protect our freedom. This is how MAGA Republicans in Congress have chosen to repay them.

Hi Trump voters, The Trump campaign hired two companies to investigate voter fraud. Both said the election was not stolen. Trump knew, but he lied to you about it over and over again. But you’ll still vote for him. Because you are in a cult. washingtonpost.com/nation/20…

Once again, these hearings are not going as Republicans planned.
Raskin's opening statement during hearing about Afghanistan withdrawal: "My Republican colleagues refuse to examine the elephant on the battlefield: President Trump's disastrous decision to cut out the Afghan government and negotiate directly with the Taliban."

This seems like fraud. If you’re not traveling, but claiming you are for the mileage and reimbursement, that’s theft.
