On vaccines, immigration, trade, race, gay rights, crime — name your issue — the entire country is now trapped by the bigotries and delusions of a sunsetting old man whose worldview is stuck in 1986.

Rachel icking at "The Fertilization President" made me LOL

I say it all of the time because it's true. Knowing who to be mad at is actual praxis. Unfortunately, most USians do not know who to be mad at. Hence the scapegoating of the most vulnerable instead of fury at those at the top.

I think the craziest thing about this Signal scandal is that by next week there’s gonna be something 10 times worse

I've started to realize that Anne Frank and her family wouldn't have been safe around a lot of people I know and loved and once respected. That's not something you get over.

Sanders: Does anybody think it makes sense that we have a campaign finance system where one man (Musk) can put $270 million to get Trump elected and then his reward is that he becomes the most powerful person in government? That is not democracy. That is oligarchy.

The Dow is down nearly 1400 points in two days.

I don't know who this guy is but he's absolute right.

Tonight’s SOTU preview

America is now part of the axis of evil. Well done, Trumpers...

The foreign policy of a nation often reflects its leader. Our foreign policy is now churlish, acquisitive, brutish, impulsive, reckless, callous, boorish, expansionist, shallow, ignorant, exploitive, nasty, dishonest, manipulative, corrupt and unethical. A reflection of our president.

We all saw it and heard it with our own eyes. So did Europe! #TheGreatestBetrayal

Zelensky found out what it was like to be a US governor in a blue state asking Trump for medical supplies during the pandemic. Or disaster relief after a wildfire or storm. It’s not his money, but he fully expects you to beg and plead for it and tell him how wonderful he is.
