Steven Menashi is undergoing his 3rd attempt to get Senate Judiciary Cmte. approval for a lifetime federal appeals court seat. @maddow explains why he is "one of Donald Trump's most controversial nominees", including a paper trail of troubling opinions. (1/5)
@maddow Before his judicial nomination, Steven Menashi was a top lawyer under Education Sec. Betsy DeVos. He wrote a memo arguing students scammed by for-profit colleges should not have their loans completely forgiven, even if their degree was worthless. (2/5)
@maddow A judge ruled the policy to be illegal but this did not stop DeVos and the Education Dept. from continuing to charge these scammed students for their loans. (3/5)

X : What's happening in UK?
Me : Nothing.
X : Protests?
Me : A bunch of people complaining about the influx of pigeons ... "stop the coo" etc?
X : Political protests?
Me : A bunch of people helping Dominic's play?
X : Are you going to be sensible?
Me : No, I'd hate to be alone.
X : Aren't you outraged?
Me : That's the point. You're supposed to get outraged. Then you look like the outraged. What's needed is not outrage but firm, solid action i.e. support Labour's proposal.
X : That's not going to happen.
Me : Then get used to a new Withdrawal Agreement.
X : Why a new Withdrawal agreement?
Me : What do you think is the point to prorogue Parliament? A new session, a drip feed of new "voter friendly" announcements and a new, ever so slightly modified WA?
X : Parliament won't vote for it.
Me : After going on protests about no deal?

NEW: Senate Democrats eyeing 2020 split on the government funding bill.

Klobuchar, Brown, Sanders vote YES.

Harris, Warren, Gillibrand, Booker vote NO.

The dividing line? Giving Trump extra money for immigration enforcement.

bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Harris votes NO due to concerns over DHS funding and immigrant detention. Booker wants "appropriate guardrails" before giving ICE/CBP any more money. Gillibrand seeks "accountability" for ICE.

An important debate inside the Democratic Party 👇

bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Just 16 senators voted against the spending bill to keep the government open.

25% of them are Democrats running for president.

Here is what's going on.

.@realDonaldTrump is such a disgrace to what America stands for, John McCain banned him from his funeral. Everyone’s there—Presidents Obama, Bush, Clinton—now at the National Catherdral to honor a great American. Trump? In his safe place—watching FoxNews and tweeting propaganda.
John McCain's pallbearers – including Russian dissident Vladimir Kara-Murza, Democrat Russ Feingold, former VP Joe Biden, actor Warren Beatty, former NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg, William Cohen—stand in attendance at the late senator's memorial service at National Catherdral in DC
Meghan McCain went there, fiercely: “We gather here to mourn the passing of American greatness—the real thing—not cheap rhetoric from men who will never come near the sacrifice he gave so willingly…nor opportunistic appropriation by those who lived lives of comfort and privilege
