    Don Blankenship did not campaign on Tuesday. Instead, the ex-con coal baron running in the WV Republican Senate primary got fitted for a new 'general election' suit, per his top aide. “I am going to need a new suit for the general,” Blankenship told aides and his tailor.

    Ohio voters have approved Issue 1, an ostensibly bipartisan congressional redistricting reform measure. But as I have argued & other mapmakers have shown, this measure is a Trojan horse that will thwart real reform & let the GOP continue gerrymandering

    It is so 2018 that the “Trump rips up Iran nuclear deal and sets us on path to catastrophic war” news cycle lasted about six hours before being eclipsed by revelations of potentially corrupt payoffs uncovered by Stormy Daniels’s legal team.

    So lemme put a little bit of a sharper point on all this. Novartis pays Cohen 400k in carefully sturctured transactions & gets a meeting w Trump. Cohen gets all the money and Trump does the work of taking the meeting. Knowing what you know about the president how likely is that ?

    While Trump has assiduously kept his vile promises on Iran, Paris, SCOTUS, etc, he’s done zilch re drug prices despite constantly talking about them on the stump. Novartis feeling great about that, I’m sure.

    We're on a verge of a disaster that could be 4 times as bad as Iraq War and the media is covering it like it's 30-second ad. Trump hasn't given 1 interview with a real reporter about what he's done & he's never even attempted to show that he even understands what's in the deal.

    Spot-on likens Trump's withdrawal from Iran nuclear deal to Bush pulling out of Clinton deal with North Korea. Inspections ended and we ended up with NK building up its nuclear program to the point that Kim's now using nuclear blackmail to get US to come to the table.

    The President just handed religious extremists in Iran’s government a major victory. Leaving the Iran deal, green lights the country’s nuclear program, jeopardizes our credibility, and threatens American security.

    Rep. Pelosi: "The President's decision to follow his misguided and uninformed campaign promise to destroy the successful Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action endangers global security and defies comprehension. This rash decision isolates America, not Iran."
