    You can now pre-order WE ARE EATING THE EARTH in paperback! With a new afterword! The WP called it "thrilling and provocative," it's triggered intense debate in food circles, and even the people angry about it say it's a fun read. Please check it out:

    I remember when Obama tried to build Florida a high-speed rail line and you sent the money back to Washington.

    Florida hasn’t received its fair share of federal transportation funding for decades. That’s wrong, and as your Senator I’ll fight to secure real results for our state.

    R's: Clinton is blowing up deficit! Clinton eliminates deficit. Bush wins. Bush blows up deficit. Cheney: Deficits don't matter! Obama wins. R's: Obama is blowing up deficit! Obama reduces deficit. Trump wins. Trump blows up deficit. Mulvaney: Nobody cares about deficits!

    The NYT proved the president’s money is stolen from you and it was almost as big a story as people being mean to Dershowitz on the Vineyard.

    I had forgotten my own reporting that @SenatorCollins stripped $870M for pandemic preparations out of the 2009 stimulus.

    Kelly sucks. Mattis sucks. Mooch sucks. Tillerson sucks. Bannon sucks. Sessions sucks. Omorosa sucks. The guy who hired them all is genius.

    The amazing thing is how seamlessly he’s gone from “Zero cases, I’m awesome!” to “Probably only 200,000 dead, I’m awesome!”

    I’m not weighing in on politics much these days but the White House pardon attorney announcing that you can commit any crimes you want as long as you support the president’s politics seems really really really really scary.

    Biden should put out a new ad with Trump saying Covid is no big deal, nobody will die, wearing masks is dumb, it will miraculously disappear by Easter, etc....and then enjoy the huge earned media debate over whether using Trump’s own words counts as a negative ad.

    I took this photo of @JoeBiden in 2016 - the way he tries so hard to connect with everyone he meets has always touched me. I hope he gets well soon. He’s been through a lot.

    If an hour ago someone had accused the president of leaving people on that cruise ship just to keep the numbers down it would’ve sounded like an unhinged conspiracy theory but he just blurted it out.

    This entire thread is an SNL skit that the entire country is trapped in.

    GOP senators killed the Dream Act in 2010. GOP House killed immigration reform in 2013. GOP voters elected Trump. This isn't complicated.
