The fact that everything around us is burning to the ground & some people still have no clue that they voted for the arsonist or are complicit in the arson is absolutely mind boggling. People are ok with it so long as the black woman isn’t their President 🤯. America, we have a problem!

He’s tanking the economy, destroying our standing in the world, depriving women and LGBTQ communities of their fundamental rights, attacking the environment, disappearing legal immigrants, gutting Veteran’s benefits and Social Security. And he’s making you pay for his golf trips while he’s at it.

When I got a PhD in nineteenth-century political history, I really, truly never imagined I would have to find a way to explain to readers what an eggplant emoji means. (Wired reported more Signalgate Venmo accounts.) I yearn for the day when I can write about good, clean fun like tax policy again.

I keep watching this clip with something approaching yearning and I’m realizing it’s because we don’t hear this level of strategic realism—that the old world is gone and the old rules don’t apply—from anyone in leadership in the Democratic Party.

When this presidency ends—and it will end—we need a Rooseveltian plan to not only undo the damage he did, but build bigger than we’ve ever built before. Big universal programs and mandates. Pack the SCOTUS. Kill Buckley v. Valeo and Citizens United v. FEC. New anti-trust laws aimed at Amazon. Etc.

Pilot to Hegseth: "You’re going to kill somebody.” For the safety of our troops, Hegseth has got to go.

Note to editors and producers: If an executive order demands action that is illegal or outside of the president’s authority, then you should not describe it as ordering something. You should say it seeks to achieve some outcome and then note it is illegal or beyond the power of the president.

I may be mistaken, but I don’t think most Americans thought they were voting for a foreign policy where Russia is our boss and Canada is our enemy. Yet that’s what we’re getting.

Whiskigate!

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

British PM Starmer hugged Zelenskyy. That’s how bad U.S. foreign policy has gotten—it’s driving the Brits to physical displays of emotion.

Swalwell: The stock market is crashing, and prices are rising. This guy has gone to the Super Bowl, the Daytona 500, and a UFC fight. He should go to the fucking supermarket and see what people are spending to feed themselves

Trump has a nerve to talk about cancer rates when he is gutting federal cancer research

“START BY PAYING YOUR TAXES” Rep. Rashida Tlaib reacting on the whiteboard she brought with her, lol.

I don't know who this guy is but he's absolute right.

Lies, lies, lies. So many lies.

Trudeau: I want to speak first directly to the American people… your government has chosen to do this to you. Your government has chosen to put American jobs at risk. They have chosen to raise costs for American consumers on everyday essential items…

Better than postcards of support for Ukraine. As the old saying goes, Put your money where your mouth is

We have spent trillions to posture against Russia over the years. Now we have a chance to send them into the ash heap of history by supporting Ukraine. It’s a good deal, unless you want Russia to win, in which case god help you

The Trump administration keeps reciting the statistic that only 6% of federal employees are working full time in their offices. That’s astoundingly low — and completely untrue. Here’s how an online survey was taken out of context to perpetuate a myth:

The “Saturday Night Live” cold open took on a combative White House meeting with President Trump and President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine. Here’s a full episode recap.

Starmer to Zelenskyy: You are very very welcome here in Downing Street. As you heard from the cheers outside, you have full backing across the United Kingdom.

Quick reminder: @elonmusk isn’t the leader of a country at war, and didn’t wear a tie in the White House and wore a stupid cap

Alexander Vindman: Lindsey Graham is an absolute coward. Trump didn’t sound strong—he was attacking an ally when he didn’t need to. All Zelenskyy said was that Trump couldn’t trust Putin. And JD Vance—he looked like an absolute clown. I don’t understand why Trump let Vance blow up his deal.

Jamie Raskin: "Given that I was marching at age 3, you know I’m not letting any coup-plotting, election-denying, insurrection-supplying autocrat, kleptocracy, plutocrat or theocrat, or any techno-feudalist Silicon Valley broligarchs aspiring dictator, turn me around now.” Amen!!

Quite obvious:

Since the FBI appears to be the only agency that is both still functioning and not headed by a lunatic, the Washington Field Office needs to open an investigation into the breach of the computer systems at Treasury, stat

Sharks fans, I have a request: tomorrow, with the Montreal Canadiens visiting SAP Center, the Canadian national anthem will be performed prior to the game. As a show of support and appreciation for our Canadian neighbors and friends, please cheer loudly during it, long and strong, for its entirety.

NEW: “Security agents escorted the inspector general of the U.S. Department of Agriculture [Phyllis Fong] out of her office on Monday after she refused to comply with her firing by the Trump administration.” www.reuters.com/world/us/usd...

I’m tired of being threatened by entitled billionaires. Nicole Shanahan can go fuck herself.

If anything, RFK, Jr. permanently ended impostor syndrome. After today, no one should ever feel unqualified for anything, ever.
