This country is unrecognizable and run by corrupt, incompetent, racist bootlicking Republicans. The president is both unhinged and unfit to lead. If we don’t stop this authoritarian regime, America is doomed. Don’t let them win ~ speak out against this tyrannical insanity. NO KINGS in AMERICA‼️

I agree with Karoline Leavitt that ABC News needs to issue an apology. I disagree on its recipient. ABC News needs to apologize to Terry Moran and make clear to him that his tweet was journalistically in-bounds—supported by years of public evidence—and he should never have been suspended.

NPR is suing Trump. Why? Because he slashed their funding just for doing their job—which is political retaliation. He’s trying to silence public media because they don’t bow down to his ego. News flash: the First Amendment doesn’t disappear just because you don’t like the coverage, Donnie.

The GOP wanted to impeach Biden for a fake $5M bribe from Ukraine that was made up by a guy sitting in prison for lying about it, but they’re cool with a $400M plane from Qatar. Do I have that right?

Such an important point from Doug Jones: “Deportation in American law allows for the ability to contest the arrest… That’s not what we’re seeing when college students are getting yanked off the streets…are sent—in violation of court orders to a prison in a foreign country.
