MSNBC shake-up: the issue is, they didn't have a Joy Reid problem. They have a Joe Scarborough problem. Until he is fired, MSNBC will not recover. Shuffling tepid shows in and out does nothing. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/23/b...

Tump has done nothing that would not be on a Russian wish list: -Ukraine invaded Russia. Support Putin. -A de facto Russian agent head of Intelligence. -Kills USAID, the largest competitor against Russia for foreign influence -A drunk cutting defense budget. That's a few. It's a long list.

“I will abstain from all intentional wrong-doing and harm". Sen Bill Cassidy swore this under oath, then voted to confirm RFK Jr. as Secretary of HHS. Now critical meetings about vaccines are being cancelled. Cassidy is corrupt fraud who pretended to be concerned and then screwed over the US.

We got a message from the university to remove any use of the "DEI", "diversity", "equity", or "inclusion" from all public-facing documents. They said that even "biodiversity" is being flagged by the federal government. We live in the dumbest timeline.

Border czar Tom Homan went on TV Monday, bumbling and sweating like a madman to keep his feud going with AOC. AOC responded with this fire: “This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing.” More here:

Overheard at my local Foxtail Coffee: “Voting for him [Trump] was the biggest fucking mistake of my life.” No idea what drove him to say that, but whatever it was, I can’t feel much sympathy. So many Trump supporters are fine with other people getting hurt, and only get upset when they’re impacted.

They were discussing Mary Poppins on @alltherightmovies.com and they mentioned that ‘A Spoonful of Sugar’ was inspired by one of the composer’s sons getting the polio vaccine in a sugar cube. A bright, cheery, classic song that sprang from the eradication of a horrific disease.

This is genuinely an important article. The two main lessons from Hungary appear to be: DO NOT WAIT DO NOT UNDERREACT Authoritarians like Orban and Trump rely on opposition being unwilling to believe that what is happening is actually happening. That’s their window. www.vox.com/politics/398...

To Trump and MAGA it's not about ending DEI programs, it's about erasing Black and Brown people from American society. It's why they are so outraged by the Super Bowl halftime show that starred Black Americans.
