Everyone has things in their career of which they're ashamed. Nothing...and I mean nothing...in my career in politics makes me more ashamed and regretful than supporting and promoting Marco Rubio. He is the most craven betrayer of his stated ideals of any human I've ever met.

This is an excerpt from @pbsnews.bsky.social that includes Pete Hegeseth's speech in Poland. He was criticized by the German Defense Minister and GOP Sen. Roger Wicker for his poor negotiation skills. Maybe appointing a Fox News host to lead the Pentagon was a bad idea. youtu.be/R3sWc0NL9xs?...

we have learned that GOP Senators (except for McConnell) have literally no standards for who should be a cabinet member. The voted for Hegseth, RFKjr., Gabbard, Noem, etc. Competence and character are no longer a standard for the GOP.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

You would think that the first public reaction from the president after a horrific air crash would be to offer sympathy to the victims and their families, not to wonder why they didn't move out of the way.

Donald Trump, whose inauguration ball Zuckerberg was attending and helped pay for, threatened to put Zuckerberg in prison and verbally abused him. But, apparently, Zuckerberg feels more insulted by Joe Biden making a generic criticism of oligarchs and oligarchy. Ok. Got it.

As an editorial cartoonist, my job is to hold powerful people and institutions accountable. For the first time, my editor prevented me from doing that critical job. So I have decided to leave the Post…I will not stop holding truth to power…because as they say, “Democracy dies in darkness”.
