The perfect metaphor for what the Supreme Court did to this country with Citizens United v. FEC.

Wait, you’re saying he’s lying

Trudeau: "He talked about banking again today in a tweet, which doesn't make any sense because 16 banks are currently active in Canada holding about $113b worth of assets in this country... what he wants is to see a total collapse of the Canadian economy, because that'll make it easier to annex us."

"Free speech," Nazi style.

Rep. Al Green is a goddamn hero.

This is nauseating to watch 😒

Who’s gonna tell them?

Anyone have that sinking feeling happening?

Our stock market is crashing. Our economy is contracting. Our government is dismantling. Our allies are fleeing. Our grocery prices are rising. But at least we now call it "The Gulf of America." So it all evens out.

This place is a joke

We could have had Kamala!!! AGHHHHHH!!!!

Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦

Feels like we are entering an era where the hushed conversation in a lot of (all-white) media boardrooms is, in careful euphemism, “we’re not hiring black people in major roles anymore” www.nytimes.com/2025/02/23/b...

I teared up watching @joyannreid.bsky.social do her last show. Her reporting is so smart and energetic, and her voice is so needed, especially now. Not sure what MSNBC was thinking, but this is truly their loss. Can’t wait to follow Joy to her next project.

Holy shit. This is scary. Senator Chris Murphy just revealed on the Senate floor that Republicans now have the votes to cut $2 trillion in services for seniors on Medicare and kids on Medicaid. Tomorrow is the House’s vote. $2 TRILLION IN CUTS. The worst part 👇

ICONIC: Yosemite National Park workers just hung an upside-down American flag—THOUSANDS of feet up on El Capitan. That’s not decoration. That’s a distress signal. They’re telling us the country is in danger. Are you paying attention? www.sfchronicle.com/outdoors/art...

This is a terrible move @msnbc.com. Terrible. The @joy.msnbc.com was a critical part of the evening line-up and @joyannreid.bsky.social brings trenchant political analysis that no one else in the evening line-up has brought. I urge you to reconsider this. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/23/b...

I’m not sure I’ll ever be over her losing in 24.

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

The “for now” part though 😬

Report: You Live In An Embarrassing Country

Senators Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Joni Ernst, etc: You’ve seen Hegseth, RFK Jr, and others give worthless assurances. You’re now seeing the US appease Putin, and DOJ guardrails crumble. Are you going to let Kash Patel use the FBI against his enemies list and further destroy the rule of law?

Oh my god

Wow, it's possible to hold a person accountable for a coup.

The more time I spend with my parents as an adult, the more secure I feel in the choice to not marry.

Lansing — Attorney General Dana Nessel is leading a multi-state lawsuit that challenges the decisions and role of billionaire businessman Elon Musk within the Department of Government Efficiency that President Donald Trump established last month. The… #ElonMusk #DanaNessel #GovernmentEfficiency

It’s not the same feeling, it’s worse.

I fear they’re coming for ALL school vaccine mandates next. Including measles, mumps and rubella.

This is extraordinarily dangerous. Tomorrow, the legacy media will ask Republican officials about this. Those officials will lie and obfuscate. And the legacy media will move on. That is part of the crisis we face.

Be jealous, all. My students made mango salsa with avocado, black beans, lime, red onion, and I got to take home leftovers. It's the majority of what I've been eating for 24 hours. It is ADDICTIVE. I'd share if I could. And I promise to use breath mints before awards ceremony. #triviaweekend

The Trump admin has "disrupted the response" to bird flu by withholding reports and canceling meetings with both Congress and state health officials, leading to confusion and concern among federal staff, states, veterinarians and health experts. www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...

Holy. Fuck.

How many is this now?

The Eagles have won Super Bowl LIX, defeating the Kansas City Chiefs 40-22! This marks the Birds' second time claiming the Vince Lombardi Trophy. inquirer.com/eagles/live/...

The KC offensive line is just getting shellacked by that Philly D. Mahomes is gonna need some biofreeze on tonight. Damn.

The running theme of these #superbowlads include girl power, multiculturalism and Jesus style religious liberalism. Who woulda thunk it when they took “end racism”’off the endzone …

Just showed the latest ‘HeGetsUs’ Super Bowl ad to Jesus and Johnny Cash and they’re both freaking PISSED.

Hahahaha 3rd interception!?? 😂

Trump got boo’ed at the Super Bowl. LMAO.

As someone who’s worked on these kinds of cases, I can tell you that you don’t conclusively establish fraud in a couple of days just by storming the Bastile. What they’re probably finding is programs they don’t like—the ones that help real people and make our lives better.

One of many reasons I am with the Birds tonight 😉
