I appreciate the details about the new statue from NC. As someone who gives many Capitol tours, I've long told my guests to take good looks at the Alexander Stephens and Jefferson Davis statues because they won't be around much longer. In a way, that's kind of sad because their presence gives me an opportunity to extol their records, which newer generations know nothing about.
MTG sure knows how to stir the pot. I'm always reminded of her comments last January: "I’m kind of sick of the chaos. I came here to be serious about solving problems, not to produce clickbait".
I probably shouldn't be, but I'm really stunned after watching the video and reading about the meeting yesterday. Real junior high stuff. Trump has made this behavior acceptable. Will we ever get back to normal?
“Porto Rico” wasn’t a misspelling in the Treaty of Paris. It was how the island’s name was commonly spelled in English at the time. The Spanish text of the treaty reads: “España cede á los Estados Unidos la Isla de Puerto Rico …” So the change in 1932 was to start using the Spanish name for the island officially.

Just want to say thanks again for your reporting.
“How do you know all this”? I follow Jamie. You should too.
Thanks very much Steve. Spread the word!
I forward your daily email to my conservative golf buddies. I mean, somebody has to counteract their bs🤣

Oh my god. That is how you run a country I guess.
You will live to see it. Good call

Daily double indeed. The indictment is final jeopardy.
They aren’t “cops”. They are police officers.
