Hey @schumer.senate.gov this dumb obsession you have with bipartisanship makes you all look like weak idiots when inevitably republicans spit in your face. WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO WAKE TF UP?

THIS is why Democratic leaders must be replaced sooner rather than later. 9:42 AM: Amy Klobuchar posts a photo with Lindsey Graham bragging about her "bipartisan meeting" and how they "stand with Ukraine" 1:40 PM: Lindsey Graham is on Fox News "trashing Zelenskyy and praising Trump and Vance"

Trump and Vance act as if the problem is that Ukraine is resisting an ongoing Russian invasion. The problem is the ongoing Russian invasion. If they want to use American power to stop the war, apply it to the aggressor. Abusing the victim is not going to end a war of aggression.

President Trump’s simpering fealty to Vladimir Putin and Russia is embarrassing and dangerous. Illinois stands with Ukraine, and so should the White House.

My latest piece @thenation.com is called "MSNBC's DEATH RATTLE". It's about the new boss, the recent firings, and my own 20 year history appearing on the network. I try to connect it to Bezos murdering the Wash Post the same week and assessing the dual significance www.thenation.com/article/soci...

If @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov are still leaders of the house and senate, accountability will never happen.

worth saying again that this was a bait and switch. if trump had openly announced he was running on allowing companies to discriminate against women and minorities he would not have won wapo.st/43aVQg1

Treasonous

Russia's response to Trump's tantrum says it all really:

As I’ve been pointing out - what’s happening here in HB is what’s happening to our nation as a whole. MAGA is not interested in listening to communities. MAGA only wants what makes themselves feel good, regardless of the cost to anyone else, and it will literally kill this country.

In an extraordinary display of public support, heads of state, heads of government, and foreign ministers from all over Europe and Canada are posting in support of Ukraine in response to the Oval Office meeting with Trump, Zelenskyy, and Vance.

We must have missed where the right wing media went after Elon for not wearing a suit

WOW— seems Speaker Johnson’s living at Former Grace Chapel senior pastor Steve Berger’s house. (Gov. Lee & Sen. Johnson’s church in Franklin) We knew Tennessee was the tip of the theocracy spear, but we didn’t realize how right we actually were. More: www.propublica.org/article/mike...

"Liberalism’s devotion to fairness and belief in the honor system has made it incapable of taking its own side against those who would replace it with fascism."

WATCH: TN Dems back an economic blackout tomorrow — protesting corporate greed & DEI program rollbacks under Trump. @Target @Walmart @amazon + more are targets, Towns, Hardaway and Camper say they’ll support black-owned businesses. More: apnews.com/article/feb-...

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis says that Andrew and Tristan Tate, the influencer brothers who face charges in Romania of human trafficking and sexual intercourse with a minor, were not welcome in the state.

This constant need some have to give cover to MAGA voters is strange. Most of these people voted for the destruction and cruelty taking place.

CALL TO ACTION: Call your representatives at (202) 224-3121 and ask what criteria they plan to use when “vetting” their constituents.

BREAKING The SEC has just halted its fraud prosecution of Justin Sun, a Chinese national who has put more than $50 million in Trump's pocket since November through the purchase of crypto tokens from a Trump-backed company, World Liberty Financial.

Yikes! Always important to use your own words and not cut and paste talking points!

I think about this headline all of the time.
