AOC: It's really because Republicans— they’re very thin skinned and they're very sensitive, and their feelings are very easily hurt. And so they have to vote on censure resolutions.

Once again, this won't but could all end today with one simple law passed by Congress. The fascist/Mad King nonsense is a choice made by cowards in the House & Senate who swore oaths to country & Constitution, not him. Others remain readily available. bsky.app/profile/mcop...

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

Lots of "Very Serious People" don't want to admit what is plain and obvious and in front of our eyes and explains so much: Donald Trump and Elon Musk are two of the most ignorant and uninformed people to ever be allowed near public office anywhere in the western world. It's obvious to all of us.

I would just like to point out that the Mayor of New York City is arguing in court that he can’t get a fair trial in [checks notes] New York City because he can’t be expected to find 12 New Yorkers who don’t already think he’s guilty.

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank. I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history. Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

Congratulations to both a corner of the left and a lot of folks in MSM who tied themselves up in knots over specific bits of evidence whether or not Trump is promoting Russia's interests. He always has. You don't need a pee tape or a dossier to see the plain facts.

So if Musk doesn’t run DOGE, and DOGE isn’t a real government agency, then no one has to listen to Musk or do what the DOGE bros tell them to do, right?

Odd, how the same people who got all rilled up about “government interference in our livelihoods” when people had taken advice from Dr. Fauci to save their lives don’t seem to care when Elon Musk has taken their jobs to profit himself.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

There is literally HIV being transmitted from mom to baby because of the illegal shutdown of US AID and now Trump’s State Department wants to spend 400 million dollars on Tesla cyber trucks. This is not about efficiency. It’s a smash and grab.

"We're going to dynamite the US economy because Canada should have given NATO a few more dollars" is so simple-minded. And, BTW, JD Vance famously wrote about his mother's problems with drugs. She didn't get them from Canada. She stole them from her American patients at the hospital she worked at.

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options. Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

So, what's the budget of DOGE? Is it part of the government? Is it independent? What are the guidelines, if any, that govern its reach and authority? Did people vote for Musk or Trump? Also, how does a private citizen have access to our Treasury's federal payment system?

Donald Trump, Jr., Eric Trump, and Ivanka Trump have never been hired for their abilities or on merit. It's always been because they have a rich Daddy, which is also how their own father "qualified" for all of his first jobs.

The head of the FAA was fired because he held Elon Musk accountable for SpaceX safety omissions. Donald and Elon don't care about regular Americans dying in plane crashes, they only care about themselves getting richer.

Trump wants to distract you from the fact that he gutted the Aviation Safety Committee and ousted the FAA administrator last week. Don’t let him.

Should go without saying but the point of diversity in hiring is to find _better_-qualified candidates outside of stagnant social networks that don't reward merit, like the kind of network that would put an MTV personality with a marketing degree in charge of the Department of Transportation
