I have decided to cancel my show at The Kennedy Center on May 11, 2025 and move it to The Anthem.

This is evil. Pure evil.

#DOGE, #musk! here’s some actual waste you should cut from our government. Go for it!

Trump actually included the satirical image of himself and Netanyahu lounging on a beach. No words…

So unhinged one runs out of words. Trump Gaza video: US president shares AI-generated video of devastated strip as playground for rich www.thenationalnews.com/news/2025/02...

It’s clear that #Musk and his minions are delusional cosplayers who don’t know how to count. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/25/u...

Statue of Liberty Ellis Island Grant’s Tomb Hamilton Grange Federal Hall Teddy Roosevelt birthplace Etc etc These are all Nat’l Parks sites in NYC. All face cuts to hours, services & maintenance due to mass staff reductions rammed through by Musk. To fund tax cuts for billionaires. This is crazy.

Oh how I miss Abe Foxman!

Disgusting! jewishinsider.com/2025/02/trum...

I've discussed this a few times in the past. But this is like the reductio ad absurdum of a trajectory we've seen across society and government but which has been most visible in reaction to Citizens United. it basically goes like this. Under citizens united super rich people have an insane ...

#Democrats don’t help him! #HakeemJeffries! apnews.com/article/john...

I think it is increasingly clear to most, that beneath all the cosmetic changes, this is who’s still there.

It took ten years, but the NYT finally got there

Is there any doubt that #Hamas is re-filling its troops with all those prisoners #Israel is having to release in exchange for the #Hostages taken on #October7? Ugly.

I hear that #HowardLutnick, Trump’s billionaire commerce secy said on #Fox that #socialsecurity is “wrong”. Oh BTW, this is his home in the Hamptons. virtualglobetrotting.com/map/howard-l...

Anyone who stays in an #Airbnb is feeding the Musk Machine. And don’t forget he is responsible in part for housing shortages in NYC and Barcelona, for example. #JoeGebbia www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/u...

Jared Moskowitz’s message for Elon Musk: I think the time for staying in safe spaces is over. Twitter—or X—is a safe space for him. You’ve got to get out of your safe spaces. Go talk to the American people—not just on Fox, not just next to the president, and not just on X. Come to Congress…

“Others shouted insults, including at children. One man called neighborhood residents ‘filthy Zionist assholes,’ and a woman shouted at young girls watching from a crosswalk, saying, ‘you’re so gross. You’re disgusting.’Children on their way home from neighborhood yeshivas peered out bus windows.”

This is an excellent point. If you care about Palestinian dignity and rights, you could be protesting Trump’s dangerous Gaza plans. If you’re screaming slurs at Jews in Boro Park, you only care about spreading antisemitism under the guise of Israel protest.

Last night, President Musk and his reek, Trump, said they wouldn't touch Medicaid. Well, they lied. Today, Trump endorses the cuts. Nice, nice.

That’s how you write a headline, people.

Lavrov and Rubio are the new Molotov-Ribbentrop seeking to carve up Ukraine.

Has Lavrov eaten @marcorubio.bsky.social ‘s face yet? Send a boy scout into a snake pit. So pathetic. Zelensky is 10 times tougher and more fearless.

Please consider joining us and participate in the Economic Blackout on February 28. 💙🙏

Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand. #resist

I'm in. February 28, 2025!

👀🤣😆 OMG!!! Who made this?! Made my day 😆

The greatest political scandal today is not what Trump is doing. It is the fact that congressional Republicans have given up their role in the constitutional system as a check on the executive branch. If we are in a constitutional crisis, it is as much on Mike Johnson and John Thune as anyone else.

Shun Airbnb on your next trip!

👀🧑🏿‍🏫👇🏾

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

#TrumpIsARussianAsset

WTF! jewishinsider.com/2025/02/amer...

From now on #HolocaustRemembranceDay and all other holidays related to multi-ethnic, multi-racial America will disappear from #Google’s calendar. Because of #Trump and #Musk we are all just pure whitebread Americans now! www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/t...

It would be nice if someone who has sworn to defend and uphold the Constitution actually understood it. Checks and balances, man. Checks and balances.

When you solve for the wrong problem, not only do you not get the solution, you can cause harm. The President wasted water that was being saved for farmers for a PR stunt. This was harmful, ludicrous, and solved nothing.

Defund #SpaceX it should survive on its own.

The reckless decision to release billions of gallons of water from the Terminus and Schafer Dams is already hurting farms and farmers. It’s a massive waste. I'm demanding answers from the Army Corps of Engineers about what happened. And why.

There it is

I’m excited for fake agency DOGE to get to the Space X and Tesla contracts worth billions. That will save a ton!

People with actual inner strength don’t have to do things like this to make themselves feel like great big strong tough guys.

Top Dem on the House Intel Committee Jim Himes says in a statement that he understands that the White House “insisted” on the CIA transmitting the list in an unclassified email

Trump's 'Extreme Makeover: Gaza Edition' has many flaws. One of the worst is its absent morality www.timesofisrael.com/trumps-extre...

There's so much bad foreign policy news. But I think the CIA story is the one that perfectly encapsulates how Trump is eviscerating U.S. national security. danieldrezner.substack.com/p/the-story-...
