- Trump Moves to Protect Puppy Torturers – Admin removes USDA link to reports on puppy mills. Seventh agency so hit. No reason given. Public not told of action. Note on site says you can file Freedom of Info Act. Nice.
- Elizabeth Warren Silenced for Reading – Warren was determined to be in violation of rule 19 of the Senate which prohibits imputing another senator. Warren was reading from Congressional Record the letter of Coretta Scott King, originally read into record by Ted Kennedy, and subsequently not put in record by famed segregationist Strom Thurmond, although he was supposed to. Discussion on this point from other senators to chair made it clear that if senator had a clear factually true evidence concerning another senator and that senator was up for a federal position the chair and by vote in senate could impute that senator and silence them for the duration of the discussion. This left senators to wonder how they could fulfill their duties of Advise and Consent.
