MSNBC shake-up: the issue is, they didn't have a Joy Reid problem. They have a Joe Scarborough problem. Until he is fired, MSNBC will not recover. Shuffling tepid shows in and out does nothing. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/23/b...

I have news for you - we aren’t taking over Gaza. But the media and the chattering class will focus on it for a few days and Trump will have succeeded in distracting everyone from the real story - the billionaires seizing government to steal from regular people.

Excellent! Are you participating @fetterman.senate.gov? Please do! Your #Pennsylvania constituents want qualified cabinet officials. #Project2025 authors must be a Hard No!

That people now see the typical person Silicon Valley has produced through decades long juvenilizing and coddling of young men and the persistent sidelining of women is an important thing except it’s also too late. These toxic adult toddlers are grown and cloning more.

Guess what @nfl? If you're against "End Racism" That means you're FOR... Racism Eff you and every one of your advertisers

Great crowd out here in front of Treasury demanding action on Elon!

We are watching Project 2025 come to life. Thankfully, pro-democracy groups are fighting back in the courts and winning. @democracydocket.com's 17-person team tracks these lawsuits so you don't have to. Support their work. www.democracydocket.com/member-me/

Serious question: can the president just spend all his time in office suing people and then use the litigation as a "legal" way of accepting bribes via "settlements"?

“It’s an insult to the Capitol Police, to the rule of law and to the nation. If I accept a pardon, I’m continuing their propaganda, their gaslighting and all their falsehoods they’re putting out there about Jan. 6.” Good for her! www.nytimes.com/2025/01/22/u...

To my fellow attorneys - we have to help and we are blessed that Mark is taking the lead in this. This is what leadership, strength and courage looks like! Thank you Mark!
