Pope Bob from Chicago. Amazing stuff.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett didn’t hold back: “I cannot wait until voters get to say, You took food out of my mouth. You took the roof from over my head. You made sure I don’t have healthcare… So I’m making sure you don’t have a job.” That’s not just a mic drop, that’s a warning. #JasmineCrockett #Vote

Congratulations to His Holiness Pope Leo XIV on his historic selection. Doug and I join millions across our nation and around the world in praying for him as he steps into his new role and leads the Catholic Church.

More total bull shit

Organizers are working so hard to save Medicaid. So hard.

You kissed ass to Trump! That’s what you did. You started voting with MAGA! That’s what you did. We were counting on you to hold the li r and not succumb to maga Nazism

Get ready for a Truth Social post with a lot of capital letters.

More than 100 staff members have been fired from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory.

64 House Republicans represent districts with higher-than-average Medicaid enrollment, according to a CNN analysis of Medicaid enrollment data. Five of them won their races in November within a tight 5-point margin: Reps. Nick Begich, Juan Ciscomani, Ken Calvert, Jeff Hurd and Rob Bresnahan.

It will & always will be Veteran’s Day. We won’t let a draft dodger who didn’t have the balls to serve change this.

On this 80th Anniversary of VE Day, we remember all those who won the war against Nazis and remember the countless sacrifices they made to deliver it. The Greatest Generation stood up to evil to protect peace and freedom for generations. Now it’s our turn. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pNl...

The bronzer is looking rather Wonka lately.

Ben Meiselas at Milken Institute: They want to hear: Why are you bullying a marginalized community? Why are you punching down at human beings? We are the United States of America—why are you treating people like this?

I just want Black people to exist without fear or threat of violence.

I know from experience: When we fight, we win. This week, we stopped the GOP from stealing a North Carolina Supreme Court seat. Democracy Docket reported every update on this case. Subscribe to its free newsletters for the latest on all the lawsuits to come: hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

Reminder, if you don’t have REAL ID you have to bike, walk, or take public transportation everywhere now.

Secretary Duffy - do your effing job!

New from @davidarmstrongx.bsky.social: When I was diagnosed with cancer, I set out to understand why a single pill of Revlimid cost the same as a new iPhone. I’ve covered high drug prices as a reporter for years. What I discovered shocked even me.

MAGA Rep. Cory Mills confirms he was married by a radical Islamic mufti who advocated for jihad. Mohammed Al-Hanooti, the cleric at the Dar Al-Hijirah Islamic Center in VA, gave sermons calling for holy war against non-Muslims and proclaiming that Allah will curse the Americans, British, and Jews.

I will not forget what private equity did to Steward Health Care, and I will not give up the fight.

Do 💙 Moms really feel this way?

My clients have been telling me about the DECIMATION of their companies as a result of the Regime’s agenda. HUGE layoffs. MAJOR interruptions in supply chain. Complete reorganizations to deal with FASCISM. This is their CHOICE.. to create POVERTY & CHAOS. We CANNOT wait for a FUCKIN ELECTION.

The people who have more money than they could possibly spend in 10 lifetimes want to tell us that we should learn to live with less. I think THEY should learn to live with less... Forsintance, they don't really need their heads, do they?

People say Elon Musk is a stupid man’s idea of a smart man but that’s way off Musk is a Ritz cracker’s idea of quantum mechanics His rhetorical use of the solar absorption of Earth in 7.5 billion years to frame his transparently scammy Mars scheme as urgent is the Sistine Chapel of absolute gall

When you realize the tacky Versailles-wannabe trash on the fireplace is just Chinese polyurethane spray painted gold.

"If the large increases in tariffs that have been announced are sustained, they are likely to generate a rise in inflation, a slowdown in economic growth, and an increase in unemployment." -Jerome Powell, Chair of the Federal Reserve

If you watched all the new episodes of Andor tonight, you have a reasonably good sense of what quite possibly lies ahead for America. I pray it isn't so. I fear it is. I am resolved to stand up and be counted—but also wise enough to know that none of us know yet what that will look like or require.

This is Hugo. He has liked to wave since he was a pup. Proud to say he has never missed a chance to say hello. 13/10

A 25-year-old DOGE bro oversaw the termination of lawyers at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau last month, just days after they warned him certain stocks he owned were prohibited by employees.

Absolutely love this!

NC21 has failed! 🎉 363 votes to 97! Outstanding result! 🎉

Shorter Fed: Shit's broke.

It’s official.

This administration is losing money at a ridiculous rate everywhere we look yet main stream media is mainly silent. The absence of reporting is evidence that they’ve all bent the knee!

Buttigieg: Like I love A1 steak sauce, but A1 steak sauce is not one of the most important things confronting humanity right now. Artificial intelligence is. And somebody who doesn't understand that probably should not be leading an important federal agency.
