Big news: on a bipartisan basis the Senate just voted to reject Trump's tariffs on Canada. The House has to vote on it next, where it's less likely to pass, but the cracks are starting to form. Trump is losing support from Republicans on his costly trade war.
Wow, what a run. Tremendously proud of my friend and colleague for his display of courage over these 24+ hours. This is exactly what's needed to fight back against Trump's authoritarianism. We're lucky to have him on our side.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Cory Booker breaks the record for longest Senate speech, previously held by segregationist Strom Thurmond.

Today's discussion about protecting Section 230 was timely — it's Trans Day of Visibility. Today and every day I will go to the mat to defend the law and stop Trump and Republicans from erasing trans Americans from the internet.
Just got to interview @wyden.senate.gov, talking about his book, the political moment we're in, where (and how) to find hope, and also... a little bit about Bluesky and why it matters. On the Techdirt podcast tomorrow...

In case you missed it with everything else going on: yesterday Senate Republicans voted to bring back overdraft fees. Everything Republicans do is to make corporations and banks richer at your expense.
"Last year, the Social Security Inspector General issued a report showing Social Security has a criminal fraud rate of 0.009%. As a percentage, that's much lower than the 1.4 billion in assets that reportedly went missing on the Tesla balance sheet just last week." - @wyden.senate.gov
Trump's Social Security nominee just lied to the Finance Committee, claiming he hasn't been involved in any DOGE plans to gut Social Security. My office has a whistleblower that says otherwise. We brought the receipts.
BREAKING: BISIGNANO LIES UNDER OATH @wyden.senate.gov: Were you involved in discussions about DOGE or any of the operations, personnel or management decisions with those working at Social Security? Bisignano: No, sir. Wyden: That sounds like a reassuring response. Unfortunately, it's not true.
