Side note. There are eight members of the joint chiefs. the chair is black. the CNO (navy) is a woman. the other six are white guys. chair and the cno got fired tonight.

Worst. Episode. EVER.

@rickstengel.bsky.social says Donald Trump may be borrowing from Richard Nixon’s “mad man theory of foreign policy” and shares how the president’s “erratic” behavior affects the country.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

Governor Janet Mills from Maine told Trump to POUND SAND! This is the kinda energy Democrats need.

Janet Mills isn’t here for any of that king bullshit. MORE OF THIS!!!

“We’ll see you in court.” Gov. Janet Mills is a badass for this.

Donald Trump @nicollewallace.bsky.social has been a puppet of Russia for decade. For years from Manchurian Candidate to Homelend and plenty of entertainment movies and tv scared us of a secret threat when we chose this by millions.

wearing sunglasses inside and following an event where he at times had a hard time speaking coherently, Elon Musk walks off the CPAC stage waving around a chain saw. this is the guy currently running our government. Congrats, America!

Murphy: "There's no separation between the Kremlin & the White House right now. The White House is a full-time Kremlin propaganda operation..there's a real probability American troops are going to have fight abroad to protect the global world order & our allies & perhaps American sovereignty itself"

@jessicavalenti.bsky.social WHAT IN THE HANDMAID'S TALE IS THIS

A refreshing conversation with Tamika D Mallory a social justice leader & movement strategist who talks about what makes for successful organizing and what leading a movement looks like in #TrumpsAmerika2025 🎧: pod.fo/e/2af842 📺: youtube.com/watch?v=vF-l...

One month in office for the hardest working guy at Mar-a-Lago. Gift link: wapo.st/434l8fD

Why would any country trust the U.S. now? Under Trump and Musk, everything is for sale to the highest foreign bidder. That makes the U.S. an existential threat to freedom on our planet. Plus, the U.S. indulges its craziest whims. Ask the "51st state." The U.S. is the heavily armed drunk at the bar.

Hillary was right about everything.

HHS has ordered CDC to stop its influenza vaccine “Wild to Mild” media campaign. This is an award-winning campaign that effectively explains how influenza vaccine may not prevent infection but does decrease illness severity. We are currently having one of the worst influenza seasons in 15 years.

Crockett: He went from being the dork that was jumping around on stage to allegedly being this amazing genius that's gonna save a country he wasn't born in, and one that maybe he doesn't agree w/the idea of a democratic republic, considering the fact he may have been more on the side of apartheid.

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

“Our predecessors deposed a brain-addled king; they crushed the violent insurrectionists of a slaveholding confederacy; they kicked the Nazis’ asses throughout Europe.” “No entitled reality-TV has-been backed by an addle-brained billionaire who cheats at video games is going to roll over us now.”

New on MSNBC: Pete Hegseth is considering firing a slate of military generals and flag officers as early as this week, according to two defense officials and three congressional officials.

Baldwin: "Last night, the president said 'I'm not touching Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, VA, I'm not touching them.' By this morning, he endorsed the House budget resolution which paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

Jocelynn Rojo Carranza, just 11 years old, “took her own life in Texas after she was tormented by classmates who threatened to call Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) authorities and have her family deported from the US, her grieving parents have said.” www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

When FAA employees are telling us it’s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.

"In other countries, this would be called 'an authoritarian coup.' In America, mealy-mouthed officials call our transition into a mafia state 'deeply troubling' and do little to curb the damage." -- HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT (2020)

Blumenthal: "What world is he living in? It is not only contrary to the facts and the truth but utterly despicable. A disgusting betrayal of a country that has bled and fought and died for freedom ... the president's surrender is pathetic and weak."

Americans were convinced by millions to not hire the Black lady and instead hire the criminal. In the end we have all we need to know.

I assume at some point we are going to get to see actual hard proof submitted in a sworn affidavit, grand jury indictment, congressional testimony, etc that millions of people are defrauding trillions from Social Security? Or is it just going to be social media posts & TV hits?

Could someone place an order for 100 more Jasmine Crocketts for overnight delivery to the Democratic Party thx in advance

The context is that Trump is Putin’s bitch.

Trump wants you to forget that he gutted the Aviation Safety Committee and ousted the FAA administrator during his first week in office. Don’t forget.

Someone is flying WAY too close to the sun…

I try to keep the language on here… PG… but in this case i can’t. You, Trump, are a traitorous piece of shit

Dear third-party voters, you’ve been awfully quiet. What’s up? What’s the game plan for the next 3 years and 11 months? Asking for 75,017,626 friends who did the right thing because we wanted to avoid all of this shit!!!

Over 120,000 Japanese Americans forced into imprisonment in internment camps simply because they were of Japanese heritage.
