So if I’m understanding today correctly, the world’s richest person Elon Musk, whom no one elected, is taking over federal payment systems and employee data while the federal employees who investigate and prosecute public corruption are being fired en masse.

Can someone explain why TikTok is a bigger national security concern than a social media platform run by a South African technofeudal oligarch actively interfering in our elections and sabotaging our national interests here and abroad?

Merrick Garland, Drop the appeal to reinstate the indictments for Nauta and De Oliveira. The Trump DOJ will do it anyway. Release both volumes of the Special Counsel report. Do not become an unwitting accomplice in their efforts to suppress the truth. Sincerely, Sane America

Resurrecting an invented word I used often 2017-2020 to describe MAGA reaction to dissenting views: thugocracy. Governing by threat and elevating specialists in threat and corruption to positions of authority.

Leonard Leo, Harlan Crow, Ginni Thomas, Martha Alito, John Roberts, Sam Alito, and Clarence Thomas love it when you blame Garland and Biden for the fact that the Supreme Court stopped the cases against Trump.

If I ran MSNBC, I would: 1. Make the @theweekendmsnbc.bsky.social a daily show; 2. Give @mollyjongfast.bsky.social a daily show; and 3. Beg @nicollewallace.bsky.social to add another hour. But, I don't run MSNBC.

Like Joe & Mika, I would also like to announce that I am “restarting my communications with Trump.” However, I will do it in a slightly different way: 🖕

Is this the 'little secret'? "So a president could adjourn Congress if there is disagreement between the two chambers and use that as a way to ram his nominees through. It's something Trump previously threatened to do during his first term."

A handful of billionaires now have unprecedented control over banking, the food we eat, the health care we can access and, now, the information we receive. This is what oligarchy looks like.
