Opinion | I am a Republican because I believe in traditional family values. Here's why I support a government run by two men who between them have 19 children by 8 different women.

Would love to see one of these guys complaining about “hysterical” crowds be asked what their thoughts of Jan 6th are. The people beating cops and shitting on the Capitol are fine, but heckling a Congressman is crazy? talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/getti...

Rubio once touted the story of his Cuban exile parents, and following Castro’s death, slammed him as a “dictator” who “routinely” punished “activists” and “ opponents.” Rubio is now helping Trump, who said he’d be a dictator “on day one,” try to deport someone simply bc they don’t like this views👇🏽

It is amazing to me that such a high percentage of the journalism profession just doesn’t care that the American experiment is being killed in a three month window. Just fascinating how little so many of them seem to care.

we dont talk enough about how fucking stupid and shortsighted the business community’s unwavering support for conservatives is

You wouldn't know from reading this New York Times story about Trump punishing the University of Pennsylvania for trans athletes that there are no trans athletes on women's teams at the University of Pennsylvania because the New York Times didn't find that detail worth including

NEBRASKA CROWD: “TAX THE RICH! TAX THE RICH!” @USRepMikeFlood: “So your proposal to solve (the debt) is tax the rich?” NEBRASKA CROWD: *CHEERS WILDLY* (not sure this went quite as he planned 😬)

The president of El Salvador doesn’t want our judiciary cutting off his newfound supply of slaves.

This is going to be one of those stories featured in the museum dedicated to the crimes of this regime

amazing putin and this host guy laugh about trump being a huge cuck live on camera here, as he reminds putin that trump is waiting by the phone

This guy co-sponsored a bill to have "Trump Derangement Syndrome" classified as a mental illness YESTERDAY.

Whether it’s Hillary Clinton sharing risotto recipes on a private server or Donald Trump giving a foreign billionaire with close ties to Vladimir Putin full access to all White House WiFi transmissions, both candidates had cybersecurity problems.

'sold as slave labor to El Salvador' is I honestly think a fair way of describing it

Trump officially declares himself God King. We need people in power to fight or individuals are going to start doing more and more reckless things as the panic grows.

How many bugs do you think Elon is putting in the White House?

Hi, I'm the guy who used to oversee the federal government's agency IT telecommunications contracts. This is extremely bad. There is absolutely no need for this. Not only is it a huge security exposure, but the simplest explanation for this is that it is meant to be a security exposure.

*throw them* *in jail*

The real bombshell is that he’s a sitting senator and just figuring out how our system works. Where did he think the money came from? A money tree? We print our own money. This means numbers in a computer go from one to the other. Welcome to the world, Ted.

what does this even mean? like I genuinely don't understand what the times is talking about here

I'm not generally a "the MSM is the heart of the problem" guy, but it does strike me that a screaming New York Times banner headline reading "TRUMP CLAIMS TO REVOKE BIDEN-ERA PARDONS" would be both appropriate to the moment and entirely consistent with pre-Trump NYT practices.

Biden needs to get on TV *today* to say he directed the pardons. The autopen thing is ridiculous, but the "Biden didn't know anything about the pardons" is actually dangerous in the face of all the media about Biden's mental decline. He can debunk it in minutes. Let's see if he bothers.

Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away. They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

Josh Marshall got a lot of flack this week, but he was pretty dead on in terms of knowing what actually happens. TPM is having it's membership drive--join if you haven't already. We are going to need TPM for the upcoming fights. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/pleas...

Democrats voted unanimously to confirm Marco Rubio

People gave @joshtpm.bsky.social a lot of grief but his reporting was courageous and accurate

-This is DC's own money, which its 700,000+ taxpaying residents have already paid. -Purely for GOP spite, DC will be laying off teachers, closing libraries, reducing public services etc that its people (including us) have paid taxes for. -Nine Democratic Senators, led by Schumer, voted Yes.

Rules for the Senate Dems to remove leader: Just 10 members (20% of the Senate Dem Conference) can call for a meeting of the conference to vote on whether and who shall replace Schumer as Conference Chair and Democratic Leader.

it’s only cloture if it comes from the Clôture region, otherwise it’s just sparkling capitulation

You heard Trump’s attorney general — if you visit a Tesla dealership, she will prosecute you. Be safe! Shop somewhere else.

If it passes every department and unit should immediately put out a statement saying it’s not valid and they will not comply.
