I’m with Joe Walsh on this one.

Today’s cover of the Murdoch-owned New York Post

“All the AID people hate him—not because he’s a rightist or leftist, but because he’s an asshole,” says one person who worked in the agency during the first Trump administration.

Jasmine Crockett is shredding this solo. But it’s past time for the rhythm section to enter this song already.

When I see Steve Bannon doing a Nazi salute to cheers it means only one thing: 420,000 U.S. troops died defending our country from Nazi assholes and 77 million people voted for them to be in power. MAGA betrayed our country voting for this nightmare.

NEW: Not only did Kash Patel pocket $25,000 from a filmmaker tied to Kremlin propaganda and disinformation efforts; he's been helping Putin for years—as I explain in my OUR LAND newsletter. link.motherjones.com/public/38550... Sign up for a FREE trial subscription to OUR LAND at davidcorn.com.

Mitch McConnell: Tariffs "will drive the cost of everything up. In other words, it will be paid for by American consumers. I mean, why would you want to get in a fight with your allies over this?"

BREAKING NEWS: After stocks TANKED following Trump’s announcement to tariff Mexico 25% - he’s now backtracking and will delay them a “month” as the Mexican president promises to send the National Guard to the border.

BREAKING NEWS: The United States Senate has just confirmed “Little” Marco Rubio, who famously questioned the size of Donald Trump’s hands and pen*s, to serve as Secretary of State. I don’t have words to describe what a joke this timeline is.

I dedicated years of my life to reporting on January 6 and exposing what happened. I was there that day, co-wrote a book, and published a series of major stories on my own, for Rolling Stone, and for TPM. I hope it mattered. I hope history will remember and understand what happened.

Between his cabinet, his donors, and his oligarchs, there was more than $1.3 trillion—with a T—sitting behind Trump. They message they sent was clear: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Judge Timothy Kelly a Trump appointee, said Enrique Tarrio, who Trump just freed with a full pardon, is a terrorist. www.justice.gov/usao-dc/pr/p...

Convicted felon 47.

Trump just pardoned these people. Don’t ever tell me Republicans “back the blue” again.

Just have to say that the $Trump meme coin is a gift to all of us who are not fans of his. It’s just a matter of time until a lot of people lose money from this. I’m a crypto fan. This is not crypto any more than Madoff was just buying and selling shares of stock

Trump just rescinded an Executive Order issued by President Biden to lower prescription drug costs for people in Medicare and Medicaid.

Trump just reportedly pardoned Jacob Chansley, the “QAnon Shaman” who participated in the January 6 insurrection and stormed the Senate chamber. Chansley responded to being pardoned by saying “NOW I AM GONNA BUY SOME MOTHA FU*KIN GUNS!!!”

Trump promises a “golden age.” But here’s what I don’t get: He had four years before as president. Did he deliver a “golden age”? He couldn’t even pull together a single infrastructure week or a healthcare plan. And he mismanaged a pandemic. Only a cult wouldn’t remember this.

There are more than 430 federal departments and agencies. @davidcorn.bsky.social outlines how Trump could turn each into a ministry of fear, full of devotees who serve him, and not the public interest, to target anyone who draws his ire.

Trump is sworn in without placing his hand on the Bible, because he has no intention of upholding his oath of office.

Via RollingStone:

Happy Retirement Biden. NOW. Sitting elected Dems. Fucking step up your fucking game. Stop being fucking cowards. We are ALL watching you. Push hard in your states.

Elon just did this…

Starting to get it?

Oh heil no

🤚🏽

Some folks are pretty good seeing things coming.

Beware of the people who spent the last several years mocking Hunter Biden’s addiction issues who are now virtue signaling about Pete Hegseth’s alcohol issues.

A comment posted to Reddit:

Forgive me if this is petty but the next account I’d like to surpass here on Bluesky is CNN. They helped normalize Trump at every turn and did nothing to help tell the truth about Kamala. Time to show them what we think. Can you RT this and follow us if you haven’t. 💙🙏

Trump spent Thanksgiving sitting like a schlub at Mar-a-Lago while Kamala Harris spent the day prepping food for underprivileged DC’s school children. If you think I’d regret my vote for her for one second you are out of your mind.
