I caught a bit of the @JimmyCarter spirit by knowing his ChiefofStaff Hamilton Jordan. I would hazard a guess that this great man was hanging onto life so his eventual departure from it would steal the headlines of Trumpian grievance & lies & replace them with his own brand of ethics - TRUTH DECENCY

Uplifting to see 3 smart ex-Republicans talk common sense & send up warning flares about #Trump policies on @MSNBC. @nicollewallace.bsky.social is a permanent beacon of light but two of her guests, Anthony Scaramucci and Tim Miller, are aggressively articulate opponents of Trump full, of ideas.

Clearly Trump inflicted pain is going to grow but take a moment to surmise what would have happened if Dems had won by 2%. DT would have screamed Foul and MAGA would have been emboldened. This way the horror we are about to experience will strip bare #GOP intentions & wreck its UnAmerican future

In the past 26 hours, the American national anthem has been booed at: Ottawa Senators game Calgary Flames game Toronto Raptors game Vancouver Canucks game More to come. And it’s totally justified. We’re pissed.

The devastation on its way is unimaginable - like nothing humanity has ever witnessed before - and everyone will wish they had been climate activists and ‘hysterics’ when they had the chance. We are in a moment of unprecedented stupidity

One of the great questions starting Jan 21 is how will Elon and Donald communicate? Trump is all phone. Nothing in writing. Elon isn't going to take 10+ calls a day. I wouldn't be surprised if more than half their communications are via posts on Truth Social and X Literally.

Is there any question that these past 48 hrs has seen @donaldtrump2026.bsky.social diminished on two sides? 1. His playmate Musk has seized the limelight & maybe even the power from him by getting himself talked about as Speaker & 2. at least 34 Republican Reps had audacity to vote against him.

On #MSNBC #JuanitaTolliver makes a truthful point: What we have seen is the fact that a #SouthAfrican billionaire knows nothing about American politics. Musk wanted a debt ceiling deal & didn't get it. Dems to rescue for sanity ....again.

Jeffries: In our nation's history, 25% of our nation's debt was accumulated during the four years of the former president, 25%. How dare you lecture America about fiscal responsibility ever.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: The message I’m hearing from people across Canada is this: they’re not afraid of you. They know you’re a convicted felon. They know that the people you’re bringing in to run your, let’s call it an “organization” rather than a government, are grifters, thieves, and thugs.

If you want to understand why healthcare pricing is horrific, the first thing to know is that our system puts 100% of the credit risk for deductibles, copays and co-insurance on hospitals and doctors. That's insane. We have turned them into Sub Prime Lenders 🧵

Vote to keep Government open now in Progress on the Hill. With debt ceiling requirement dropped, it looks as if MORE #Democrats than #Republicans will vote to keep the Government open and save Government workers who work pay check to pay check their #Christmas spending money. Ironic.

Record travel, Black Friday and cyber Monday spending, but tell me again you voted because of the price of eggs. It’s bullshit. If you voted for him it’s because you couldn’t stand the thought of a highly competent black woman as President. Period.
