I’m really looking forward to the morning edition of The Weekend on MSNBC, but the Weekend Primetime is a hard pass for me.

Wearing a bright blue suit, texting, and then sleeping at Pope Francis’s funeral. What an embarrassing mess.

Curious how the people who lost their shit when Obama wore a tan suit to a press conference are going to spin Trump wearing a blue suit to the Pope’s black tie funeral.

Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines. When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.

Why does MSNBC go straight to him every time he opens his mouth? They just let him lie without cutting away. Summarize it later after you fact check. Otherwise you are complicit.

Protests aren’t the only tool in the anti-authoritarian toolkit, but they’re incredibly important. Protests help us see each other; they make it feel safer to refuse to obey the dictator, and make it more possible for us to organize mass non-cooperation. It’s an essential step in the process.

I think that, while the admin is filled with unqualified idiots, the fuck-ups like the Signal chat are downstream from one fact: they've been instructed to break the law and violate the Constitution and they are behaving as though neither the law nor Constitution exist. This invites carelessness.

Cutting Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security will result in people dying. Cutting medical research and funding will result in people dying. Cutting foreign aid, FEMA and NOAA will result in people dying. A few cars on fire is considered violence, but somehow the rest isn’t.

There's a drug-addled, mentally-unwell narcissist billionaire illegally breaking into gov't & non-gov't orgs to ruin them because he bought the presidency & hates everything good in the world. PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME WHY WE'RE NOT STOPPING HIM. We MUST protest on 4/5 in mind-boggling numbers

@senatoradamschiff.bsky.social @padilla.senate.gov please push for a new Senate minority leader. Chuck doesn’t have the ability to fight the way we need a leader to fight.

Vote out every single one of them who cave. All of them.

The fight going on in the Democratic Party right now is not between hard left, left and moderate. It’s between those who want to fight and those who want to cave. And Team Fight stretches across all ideological aspects of the Party. Misread this at your own peril.

I’m not sure that the Trump Democrats strategy of letting the bully take their lunch money today in the hopes the bully will be nice to them tomorrow will be all that effective

Yo @durbin.senate.gov, no one is picking up your Senate phone and you don’t even have a voicemail. Vote no on cloture and the spending bill or I will do whatever it takes to make sure the next Senator from Illinois has basic constituent services set up during business hours.

these people swore an oath to defend the constitution but i guess that’s just too hard

No Dem Senator has to follow Schumer here. This is a weak stategic move driven by fear and learned helplessness. Don't follow him. He's leading the party into irrelevance and helping Trump and Musk in the process. Call your Dem Senators and ask them not to join Schumer's surrender tomorrow.

Chuck Schumer needs to step down as leader. He clearly isn't lock in step with majority of democrats. This is bad. Im so angry with his caving. Listen shutdowns suck but this "CR" sucks even more and it's not even a clean funding bill. Pathetic.
