Tonight, Senate Republicans are charging ahead with their budget proposal. They’re making clear who matters to them: billionaires and giant corporations.  And who does not: working families.

If any party, including the government, doesn’t like a court order, it can appeal it. It doesn’t get to just disregard it. Vance took an oath to uphold the Constitution, just like Sen. Cotton did. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Not a single Republican senator stood against Gabbard -- ignoring the law requiring the director of national intelligence to have deep national-security experience. She has none. She represents the disastrous rise of misplaced power, and a danger to the United States. www.axios.com/2025/02/10/t...

This….is criminal. Lock him up.

Will it ever really come "to a close"? "The agreement brings to a close an ugly chapter in which Republicans in Congress pinned allegations of Biden family corruption largely on claims Smirnov made to FBI agents in 2020 — claims that Smirnov now admits were lies..."

We have established a playing field in which the forces of MAGA can slander, libel, and defame with near impunity...while simultaneously using libel law to attack legitimate critics in an attempt to chill everyone else’s speech.” From @jvl.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

Stable genius.

1/Arguing that @joebiden46th.bsky.social should have pardoned Trump to equalize pardoning his son is laughable and wrong. Pardoning Trump would be as bad a mistake as Ford’s pardon of Nixon. Hunter was charged criminally when others doing what he did would not be. It was a political case.

🚨 Jane Mayer writes that Trump DoD nominee Pete Hegseth was drunk at work in prior jobs & tolerated & participated in sexual harassment while ignoring at least one employee complaint of an assault. Gotta go. www.newyorker.com/news/news-de...

Agree.

When making a MAGA cabinet, it's very important to strike a careful balance between billionaires, sex criminals, Russian assets, anti-vaxxers, and just plain unpleasant people.

Great collection by @JoyceWhiteVance.bsky.social of the many reasons Kash Patel is unfit to serve as FBI Director open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

"You are an abuser of women": The searing email that Pete Hegseth's own mother sent him in 2018 accusing him of sleeping around, cheating on his wife and debasing and belittling women. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/29/u...

Wow. Here is one to brighten up your morning. The first images of the restored interior of Notre Dame cathedral. Breathtaking. In just five years France did it

People are often surprised when I tell them this: both Twitter and Facebook/insta/threads are now specifically engineered to downgrade, hide, suppress real journalism. If this platform is different, that's a huge change

This is it right here. And Kamala won every state where college graduates make up 40 percent or more of the population. Trump won every state where college graduation is below 40 percent.
