Imagine if we had spent the last 30 years focusing on how to make autistic people's lives better and not flipping our shit about the autism "epidemic" and finding somebody to blame.
Backbones are in such short supply.
Have to think former HELP Committee Chairman Ted Kennedy is rolling in his grave tonight over the news. Ted Kennedy dedicated his life to expanding healthcare to all Americans. Now, his nephew is going to help Donald Trump dismantle that legacy.
EXCLUSIVE: The woman at the center of the DOJ's probe of Rep. Matt Gaetz testified to the House Ethics Committee that he had sex with her when she was 17 years old, sources say. Read more: abcnews.link/OkwGK69
Shocked. Shocked I tell you that you can't trust what people in Trump's orbit tell you. (Seriously after he has been on the stage for nearly a decade now, how is this still surprising for anyone?!?)
A cautionary tale for all journalists. Aides/advisers will offer assurances/explanations. Trump will do whatever he wants.
Under U.S. Senate rules, does the brain worm need to be confirmed separately? Or is it just one vote for both? 🤔🤔🤔
Seriously, we are living in the worst timeline possible.

Guess I really should change my passwords now...
The world's most commonly used password of the year is "123456." Other popular passwords that are easy to hack, leaving your personal data vulnerable to cybercriminals, include "secret," "password," and "qwerty123." trib.al/9zlx5M4
As part of the post mortem, we need an honest convo about the path to 270 post 2030, because it will look different and require adjustments & investments in a broader reach of states
New >> California and New York are projected to lose up to 8 electoral votes in 2030. Texas and Florida are projected to gain 8. If Kamala Harris had to compete with that map, even winning Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin wouldn’t have saved her.
You know the most suprising thing about the @mattgaetz pick. That he didn't leak that Papa Gaetz was going to be picked, and then take the job at the last second just to undercut his dad.
A reminder as we await DeSantis announcing special elections for #FL01 and #FL06 Back in 2021, when Alcee Hastings died - leaving majority-black #FL20 vacant - DeSantis delayed the specials so long that the seat was vacant for 10 MONTHS Doubt we get such a delay this time...
I did some digging on Trump's recess appointment demand so you don't have to - Dems can fight/delay a recess. Rs would need 60 (or go nuclear) to stop - Trump can use powers to FORCE a recess - Probably easier to just use confirm his noms w 50 votes! semafor.com/article/11/11/…
Time to re-read this if you have questions on Trump muscling through Gaetz, Gabbard or Hegseth:

Well, that will make the difference with the incoming administration.
AGREED TO: Motion to invoke cloture on David Huitema to be Director of the Office of Government Ethics By a vote of 50-48.
Demanding Senate Republicans back Gaetz as attorney general and Hegseth as Defense Secretary is the 2024 version of forcing Sean Spicer to say it was the largest inauguration crowd ever. These aren't just appointments. They're loyalty tests. The absurdity is the point.
So excited for another four years of “Republicans, Shocked and Disgusted in Private, Unanimously Vote for Trump’s Agenda Anyway” stories
My phone is blowing up with Senate Republican aides aghast at Trump’s nomination of Gaetz. Some quite confidently saying there’s no way their boss votes to confirm him. We’ll see.
My phone is blowing up with Florida Republicans texting me laughing at it. They can't believe Don Jr. got Trump to select Matt for AG. (At least that is what some are saying in Sunshine State is how it played out. Will look for reporting on the details.)

With so much attention over Trump's plan to eliminate the Department of Education - surprised there isn't more focus on how 60 House Republicans voted last year against a similar plan. Hard to see how this could get a majority in Congress to go along. clerk.house.gov/Votes/2023156
