Sen. Jim Banks told a laid off U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) employee who approached him that they “probably deserved it” and they “seem like a clown.”

Fox and Newsmax are destroying this country! Folks need to start suing those fake news networks on behalf of their families. This is so sad. This dude talking to his dad who drank the Kool-Aid about Zelensky and the war. Whew!

Republicans are too chickenshit to hold town halls. Shocker. Here’s an idea: Democrats, hold town halls in Republican districts.

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

The AP should stop covering Trump events. Instead send those White House reporters out into the field to report on the harms and repercussions of his policies. The U.S. public never needed coverage of pseudo-events anyway.

"At least 1,000 USAID staff have had our .gov accounts...deactivated and wiped overnight with no advance communications," USAID worker tells me. "This includes colleagues deployed in active war zones like Ukraine and Gaza who rely on USG technology for safety." bsky.app/profile/kenk...

There appear to be at least three separately operating heel factions breaking things within the government in wholly different ways right now. There's the Miller-headed immigration one, the DOGE/Elon one, and a Project 2025 OMB one. This dynamic hasn't showed up in mainstream reporting at all.

No one's blaming Democrats for causing this crisis, but yes, many of them are failing to meet this moment. One Democratic senator could bring the chamber to a halt. House Dems can go to fed agencies being gutted by Musk with cameras in tow. Governors can push back. State AGs can bring lawsuits.

Though the Justice Dept has deleted information about its Jan 6 prosecutions from its website, a federal judge has issued an order listing and chronicling all of the cases and prison terms Here: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Holy shit! Democrats, if you’re looking for a fighter, you found one— @malcolmkenyatta.bsky.social for DNC Vice Chair.

I know I’m not alone on this.

My firm is willing to represent pro bono those fired in this unlawful and vindictive purge. These dedicated civil servants were performing their jobs and upholding the rule of law.

Emergency Video: Where are the Dems and what is the message?! Oppose this agenda now! Come back from vacation! adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/emergency-...

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

‘New way of bearing witness’: one of biggest Holocaust archives goes online

I’m not a movie critic, but here’s a must-watch on PBS It tells the story of an 1890s #fusionvoting alliance between recently enfranchised Black voters & poor White farmers Together, they passed reforms, & built progress—until the Klan violently overthrew them This history needs to be remembered

@senjoniernst.bsky.social is a disgrace to women. Sexually assaulted while serving in the military, yet voted yes to confirm alleged sexual assaulter Pete Hegseth for DoD Secretary. You have spit in the face of every victim of sexual violence.

CNN has become a North Korean-style state propaganda organ, change my mind

Joni Ernst is especially culpable. She KNOWS what victims go through. She doesn’t give a shit about others. Iowa Dems get your act together. Find a winning candidate for 2026

Hegseth is narcissistic, incompetent, and undisciplined. He will not last more than 18 months as SecDef, and tonight's tiebreaker vote to confirm will not age well.

Tip from @snowjob.bsky.social If you have a whitehouse.gov link you want to access and it is down, try replacing "www.whitehouse.gov" with "bidenwhitehouse.archives.gov" The national archives is still doing its job for now.

Republicans just pushed a bill that spreads lies about abortions, criminalizes doctors using their best medical judgment to treat patients in need, and strips families' ability to decide how to act in situations where a baby won't survive long outside the womb. (1/2)

Trump pardoned 1500 militia members so he could use them to keep Congress members and federal judges in line by threatening them with murder.

The law and order dude is about to pardon those who assaulted the police. Collectively more than 40 rioters attacked me that day.

Merrick Garland is not to blame for Trump’s return to power. The blame belongs with Mitch McConnell and SCOTUS for failing to serve as a check on abuse of power. My thoughts in The Contrarian.

Donald Trump nominated Pete Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard and Kash Patel because he wants to show Republicans that he is the boss. That he can strip them of their dignity by making them support terrible nominees. Senate Republicans may be in the majority, but Trump controls them. That is the story.

If the left had information infrastructure anything like the right, this would be the frame of a thousand memes on Monday afternoon.

Trump hated TikTok (because China) until it helped him win an election (as even he acknowledges) and now he’s going to save it and take a victory lap. So he’ll have X, TikTok, Insta, and Facebook all working on his behalf. That’s a big difference between now and 2017.
