"But if you want to deliver on change, then it’s a game of addition, not subtraction... you have to find ways to make common ground with people who don’t agree with you on everything but agree with you on some things." Sure, so long as we agree on one thing: A representative democracy. No Kings.

Meanwhile, as ICE, LA, and the Middle Ease get all the 24/7 'shiny object' attention, Project 2025 continues to make considerable inroads on abolishing government functions & services. More to come for DHS, Dept. of Health, DOJ, Labor, etc., even as Congress proves paralized to uphold its Oath.

"I don’t think they were super close [to building nuclear weapons] and I think there were enough incentives in place to try to negotiate a deal... [but] Israel was worried those negotiations might progress and decided to keep that from happening." Netanyahu, like Putin, sees Trump as his puppet.

Wow. Rachel Maddow on MSNBC tonight: “Trump has no idea what to do with the sustained and growing and intractable and indominable protest and opposition of the American people against him. Game over, big guy. You lose."

Holy shit. The Special Assistant to the Secretary of Defense just testified that the cost of National Guard deployment is $134 MILLION. $134 MILLION to protect a few square blocks & it’s not even working. Every taxpayer should be outraged this is what they’re spending money on.

I don’t remember Marjorie Taylor Greene ever being forcibly removed and handcuffed after heckling during President Biden’s State of the Union, because…checks notes we were living in a democracy back then.

What a Mess is Brewing in the Middle East "I may do it. I may not do it. I mean, nobody knows what I'm going to do." Translation: I have no idea what I'm going to do - or not do - so maybe I'll just do both, maybe even at the same time and really confuse the hell out of everybody, even myself.

In case you didn't see the video of it, Trump dropped papers at the G7 meeting when he did his idiotic thing where he proudly opens a folder to show his childish scrawl, like he's saying, "Look! I signed a thing!" Beyond George W. Bush levels of cringe.

Trump cutting UC research grants will sabotage cancer cures, genetic breakthroughs, & medical tech advances. But it's worth it to own the libs by making sure Grandma dies sooner. These policies are like sawing off your head because your brain keeps disagreeing with you.

I am so proud of the US Army for not training soldiers to march uniformly in lockstep, and for having zero peacocking parade skills. Thank you for having different priorities.
