Look at all the people protesting Trump outside the Horizon Event Center, where he had his rally in Clive, Iowa. 50x more than the pathetic crowd he drew inside. Bravo, Hawkeyes!

1. Good. Keep hanging her out to dry until she's gone. 2. As many of us keep reminding: Miller is her boss. We need to go after him even harder than we go after Noem.

Perfection

And a serious blow to the authoritarian attempt to make the Feds untouchable.

“In London cyclists now outnumber cars in the City by 2 to 1. Paris, where they now outnumber motorists across the whole city, is catching up with Europe’s traditional bike capitals, Amsterdam & Copenhagen…In Copenhagen, bikes account for almost half of commuter trips to work/school.” @economist.com

David McGuinty, Canada's Minister of National Defence, has responded to Donald Trump's claim that America has "never really asked anything" of NATO, that the alliance sent only "some troops" to Afghanistan and that "they stayed a little back, a little off the front lines." It's pretty blunt.
