A Heads-up for tonight's Shade. Usually, I mix topics of interest with my snarky opinions and comments. Tonight, all I can suggest is that you grab a tall glass of something cool and refreshing, along with an extra large tub of Aloe Vera After Sun cream. Because the Stoopid, it burns tonight!

x What would Elon Musk have been posting if Russia signed a cease fire offer 3 days ago with the US and Ukraine was refusing to sign it? What would Vance be posting? Trump?

The demands for information are designed to clarify the “parameters of DOGE’s and Musk’s authority.” www.politico.com/… A federal judge has ordered that Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency turn over a wide array of records and answer questions about plans it crafted to downsize federal agencies, fire employees and suspend federal contracts.

Any information the states glean as a result of Chutkan’s decision will help her determine whether to block Musk and DOGE’s government activities altogether. === Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg considered a statewide campaign in Michigan next year, but he ultimately decided against it. “I care deeply about the outcome of both races, but I have decided against competing in either,” he wrote via Substack. “My party has a deep and talented bench here in Michigan, and I am certain that we will nominate an outstanding candidate for each office.” www.msnbc.com/... ===

x Walz: "The idea that the secretary of education would not know what IDEA is -- individuals with disability in education act -- that's like your mechanic not knowing how to put air in your tire. And she's in charge of this nation's education progress. It is catastrophic."

Zach Nunn, then head across the border to Nebraska, for the district represented by Rep. Don Bacon – both of whom won tight races for re-election last year. Walz’s team is already planning stops in Wisconsin, Minnesota and Ohio for the coming weeks, with more stops expected to be added. time on the Democratic ticket last year, Walz said he felt obligated to step up. Given his national profile after hislast year, Walz said he felt obligated to step up. “There was just a primal scream of folks recognizing what’s going on with the Trump administration, their authoritarian tendencies, and what they viewed was a lack of a proper response from their representatives,” he told CNN on Wednesday. “It was about these Republican representatives recognizing this stuff’s really unpopular, so they’re going to quit the town halls. These folks need to be heard. They need to be heard, and to be candid with you, Democratic leadership needs to hear them.”
