Check out how the anchors of CBS Evening News ended their broadcast tonight:

If Lloyd Austin had sent sensitive information about strikes in Yemen to an encrypted group chat that included his wife and brother, Republicans would be calling for his fucking head.

Remember this? Drinking at the podium. Chaos at the Pentagon. We’re one whiskey shot away from DEFCON 1. Every Senator who voted to confirm Hegseth knew exactly who he was. They don’t get to act shocked now—they should be held accountable.

"Unlike the chat in which The Atlantic was included, the newly revealed one was created by Hegseth. Named “Defense | Team Huddle,” it included his wife and about a dozen other people.... He used his private phone, not his government one, to access the Signal chat." www.nytimes.com/2025/04/20/u...

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared detailed information about strikes in Yemen to a second unclassified Signal group chat that included his wife and brother, people familiar with the matter said. nyti.ms/4jBQ1wV

Confirming Hegseth really was insanely reckless.

I spy with my little eye A MAN WITH A BACKBONE!

The El Salvador story is less about Abrego Garcia himself than about the right to due process. The assault on Harvard is less about the school itself (there are and will be others) but attempted federal control of private universities. 1/

🚨BREAKING: Judge finds flying migrants to El Salvador after orders not to "demonstrate a willful disregard for its Order, sufficient for the Court to conclude that probable cause exists to find the Government in criminal contempt." Visit www.democracydocket.com for full details and analysis.

AOC: “Donald Trump is a criminal. Convicted on 34 felony counts of fraud. He is lying, and he is manipulating the stock market too. At his best, he enriches himself, the billionaires who back him, and the members of Congress who trade with him. Not you. Not me. Not the people.” More here:

Did we really ship $350 Billion to Ukraine without any oversight?! Of course not. And it isn’t anywhere near that number. Here’s the truth: youtu.be/ZROD0LjN3HU?...

All this, along with putting a 2020 Big Lie Trump ally in charge of DOJ's Civil Rights Division www.thebulwark.com/p/justice-de...

the people who told you to calm down about Roe are the same people telling you to calm down about Social Security, in case you hadn't noticed

If Trump is saying Elon wasn’t briefed on military plans for a possible war with China it means that Elon was briefed on military plans for a possible war with China.

America was given a choice between a lawless, amoral monster and a qualified, intelligent, joyful woman of color—and it chose the monster. We need to reckon with the reality of what that says about so many of us here. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/america-ch...

MAGA: Why do y'all consider Russia the enemy?

January 29, 2023. It was all there for everyone to see, who cared enough to notice.

Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen in Kyiv with world leaders calls Zelensky a hero, fighting a war for 3 years which was started by Russia. She urges Europe to increase support to UKR now, says Zelensky must be at the center of any negotiations with Putin #Voices4Victory youtu.be/JNs6wRvSpSU

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

Yup.

I'm Mar🐫 & I approve this message. 👍 #EcomomicBlackout (image by @donkoclock.bsky.social) 🙏

Raise your ✋ and repost if you support Ukraine and Zelenskyy! #SlavaUkraini 🇺🇦

I didn't think I was capable of feeling any more shame for what America has become. I was wrong.

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

That press conference was the most disgraceful act of betrayal I’ve ever seen.

And to think we could have had a sane, serious government run by an intelligent person who would have acted in the best interests of Americans, and not Vladimir Putin.

Never forget this day, February 28, 2025, when an American president abused and betrayed a democratic ally in the midst of a barbaric war with Russia. This grotesque stain will never wash away.

Today, in a meeting at the White House, the only person actually defending American interests was Zelenskyy. Let that sink in.

I don’t think that enough people realize that the shitshow we saw today was a full and complete capitulation by the United States. The west lost the Cold War in front of our eyes.

Rieckhoff: He's losing his women and children. His cities are being bombed, and we're talking about his clothes? It was victim shaming, which is what trump has been doing to Zelenskyy and Ukraine since before he got elected. It's unacceptable.

Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist. He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.

NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com
