“Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured.” M.Twain I’m a family & dog loving, comedy loving political junkie trying to keep my sanity in this troubling timeline.

Well done Eagles!!!

At what point do leaders in the GOP band together (since they seem to lack courage individually) & say enough is enough? The party of Reagan becomes the tool of Putin if they don’t, especially after last night.

Wise man…

KEEP PUSHING! If they won’t do a town hall DEMAND ONE

WaPo Page One: “If you’re going to just yell at me, that’s not going to be an effective town hall,” McCormick said .. “But we’re pissed!” a woman shouted. #GA07 www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Love to see it!

Sharing more townhall videos today because they’re giving me hope. THIS is good trouble! Who is this man? I want to shake his hand and buy him a drink.

He nails it.

Rep. Jason Crow: “The purge of senior officers at DOD is deeply troubling, but purging JAG officers worries me the most. “JAG officers interpret law for our commanders. They help determine what's lawful and constitutional. “Replacing these military lawyers with Trump loyalists is so dangerous.”

CSPAN Caller from West Virginia: I’m a diabetic and I’m on Medicare. When Biden was in there, my insulin was $6 for a 28 day supply. I just went to CVS, it went back up to $80…

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

🚨 BREAKING: Joint Chiefs Chairman CQ Brown is on the list of officers submitted to Congress—signaling that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth could fire him, officials say. Are you surprised that Hegseth might target the highest-ranking Black officer in the military? I’m not.

well done, @chriswarcraft.bsky.social

"Moderate" Republicans vote for Trump Nominee A after A assures them they won't do X. After confirmation, they immediately do X. "Moderate" Republicans say Nominee B assured them they won't do X. After confirmation, they immediately do X. Repeat with Nominees C, D, E, F, G, etc.

Keep it going!!!

Rep Auchincloss is a gem. Love him. He’s another one who needs to keep getting out there. @meidastouch.com @meidasjordy.bsky.social @olbermann.bsky.social

People are waking up to just how bad things are with co-presidents Trump & Musk and Republicans running Congress. We don’t have to wait for midterms—we can win special elections now. We’ve been here before and won. @repjasmine.bsky.social lays out the path 🔥

Doesn’t project 2025 have something in there about taking over the national parks? We aren’t going to have these soon. They are just getting a jump on it.

Silent, complicit cowardice republicans own this. This is a tragedy. My god. This poor child and her family. Heartbreaking.

Truly humbling moment. I dont like being put on a pedestal, but I won't lie this was pretty cool as was when we gave a press conference together in Manhattan. Thanks Mr. De Niro

Here's one of the warnings I gave in an article before the US election. It's devastating to see it all happening. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Literally don’t want to hear from her. She is garbage.

Pritzker: If we don’t want to repeat history, then for god’s sake, in this moment, we better be strong enough to learn from it.

CALIFORNIA — ex NFL punter Chris Kluwe arrested for civil disobedience protesting at the city council in Huntington Beach, where the council planned a “MAGA” display on a plaque at the library. Context: www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootb...

If I had a band or a label, I would do a punk cover of "No More Kings" from Schoolhouse Rock. And then I would gather a bunch of people to write a whole album of next-generation Schoolhouse Rock songs, with songs about Social Security and Medicaid and NOAA. I am not kidding in the least.

NEW: Texas Banned Abortion. Then Sepsis Rates Soared. ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis is the most detailed look yet into a rise in life-threatening complications for women experiencing pregnancy loss under Texas’ abortion ban.

If I had a scheduled flight, I’d cancel. That is for sure.
