@wyden.senate.gov: "What Social Security does well is get checks to seniors who rely on them every month, on time"

Shout out to Jeffrey Goldberg for reporting on this now instead of waiting two years to put it in a book.

I would like to nominate Maxwell Smart for national security advisor.

One point Goldberg made that is really important. This is the kind of info you can only access inside a SCIF. Phones--especially not phones loaded up with social media--aren't allowed in SCIFs. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

The latest crazy just proves what we all know. They are discussing everything on Signal to avoid any discovery or FOIA or archival laws. So illegal but here we are.

Hillary Clinton would like some words. 🍿

Today, I am calling on Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and other top officials in the Trump administration to resign immediately due to their reckless and unlawful disclosure of national security secrets. Their actions have put our country at risk, and immediate accountability is necessary

Well this aged like unpasteurized milk🤌 3 days ago: “Under the previous administration, we looked like fools. Not anymore.” –Pete Hegseth

is ur child texting state secrets in a Signal chat? ily - I Leaked Yemen (attack details) smh - Secret Message Hahahaha tbh - Talkin 'Bout Houthis idk - I Doubt Korea (is in this signal chat) gtg - Gonna Text Goldberg

Hey guys remember the Hillary Clinton email server? Seems kinda, small today, doesn’t it?

Getting wishy-washy on the tariffs again that's why the stock market opened up I encourage Mexico Canada and every other country keep your tariffs High until we drive this this lunatic out of office

Pete Hegseth today

On the bright side, the countries formerly known as America's allies now have a really nice excuse to stop sharing information -- that it'll just end up in some drunken cabinet member's cell phone.

BREAKING: Billionaire Governor JB Pritzker has asked if he could buy the painting of Trump hanging in the Colorado State Capitol.

Yes. This really happened. They used a group chat to plan strikes on a foreign country. No, Signal is not an authorized platform for national security information.

18 U.S.C. § 793(f) makes it a federal crime to for people entrusted with information related to the national defense to, with gross negligence, disclose it to others in violation of that trust.

His insecurity is palpable - what a snowflake.

There’s always that one person in the group chat who communicates 50% in emoji. We made that person the National Security Adviser.

Top intelligence committees need to begin an investigation into Pete Hegseth's epic Signal chat mishap. ASAP. There should be televised hearings so all Americans have transparency on how such an enormous breach of national security could take place in first place.

So…lock them up?

Circling back on this…

While here in America we're understandably focused on the massive security breach revealed in @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social's article, I suspect that Europe is also noting JD's resentful comment about not wanting to help them. This likely confirms what they already fear. So who needs allies, anyway?

This continues to be the biggest story in the country: DOGE has already squandered half a trillion dollars in 6 weeks. Not billion. half a trillion, $500 billion talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/irs-p...

The most fragile, sensitive snowflake in history.

Zero harm and ample upside in Democrats calling for impeachments and a special prosecutor. The VP, the Secretaries of State, Defense, and Treasury, the DNI, and the NSC were all involved in the grossly negligent disclosure of specifics on combat operations.

This made me chuckle! 🤣

Trump claiming that NSC knew that Trump's entire NatSec team did something wildly incompetent and none of them -- not JD Vance, not Mike Waltz, not Susie Wiles -- gave him a heads up. Highly likely that's a lie, but it's not a lie that makes him look less stupid.

Okay, but how could we have possibly known Hegseth's lack of experience would lead to a colossal national security disaster?

Unique to America, our health care system is designed not to make people well, but to make CEOs & wealthy stockholders incredibly rich. The result: We have the highest infant mortality rate of any wealthy country on earth. How cruel, how immoral is that? We need Medicare for All.

Bondi would rather lock up people who protest against Tesla and actual legal immigrants.

I’m skeptical that “[t]housands of clients have reached out directly to thank Paul Weiss” for bending the knee. Mr. Karp, could you name them so we know whom to boycott?

What a fucking asshole. I really hate this smug piece of shit.

Sir, sir, thank you for showing us that our lawyers have no courage....

I want you to understand this is happening in our name and we know most of these men committed no crimes. One is a professional soccer player who was tortured in Venezuela and was working through asylum in the U.S. ICE shipped him for his Real Madrid tattoo and a picture throwing rock & roll horns.

Fact: They didn’t fear what breaking the Dept of Education would do to their kids. Their kids are in fancy private schools. They are dismantling the Dept of Ed so our kids have no choice but to be undereducated and work for their kids.

The decision by who, Mike?

Yep. Rep. Larson: “By requiring seniors and disabled Americans to enroll online or in person at the same field offices they are trying to close, rather than over the phone, Trump and Musk are trying to create chaos and inefficiencies so they can privatize the system.” apnews.com/article/soci...

'sold as slave labor to El Salvador' is I honestly think a fair way of describing it

Evergreen.
