Too big to fail The big short The automotive bailout Enron You know what happened Wall Street created huge problems. America bailed them out. The rich got richer. Very few paid a price. And the little guy got screwed Until Obama created the CFPB Now Trump wants to let them do it All Over Again

This is a really scary list. Trump seems partial to failed Senate candidates from Georgia and election deniers. 😏 @meidastouch.com @lincolnproject.us @reallyamerican.bsky.social @maddow.msnbc.com @joy.msnbc.com @msnbc www.cbsnews.com/live-updates...

I donated to the Carter Center Democracy Program in honor of Former President Jimmy Carter’s extraordinary 100 years of life and his service to our Navy and Nation. If you’d like to do something that matters, a donation would be a good choice. www.cartercenter.org

Exactly! Who really gives a 💩 about what they say. Trump did worse than this the first time he was president. As a father, he probably wouldn’t be able to live with himself if he didn’t pardon Hunter.

Trump pardoned Jared Kushner's dad while Jared worked in the White House, then yesterday appointed Jared's dad as an ambassador, but Polis didn't have the same energy for that. Pathetic stuff that I for one won't soon forget.

Recall what happened with the FBI when Nixon politicized it by appointing Patrick Gray director. The rank and file leaked, leaked and leaked up to the assistant director (aka Mark Felt/Deep Throat) level. They destroyed Nixon. Trump is inviting big trouble with Kash Patel.

Remember when Trump issued a last second pardon to Judge Jeanine’s tax cheat ex husband? President Biden was sworn in 45 minutes later.

The 1/3 or so of the electorate who chose not to vote (they could be their own party) are just as responsible for what's coming as the people who voted for him. Inaction was an action.

Holy moly. MAGA is losing their mind over an uncovered video from 2016 where Donald Trump says people should use the bathroom they feel is inappropriate and speaks out against trans bathroom bills. Feel free to share this so MAGA implodes.

I ask the people in power, with large platforms and public profiles: For the last few years, you have been saying what everyday Americans need to do. With Trump coming: Isn't it your time to stand up? Isn't it your time to show some heroism? Isn't it your time to do what you expected from others?

A whining Rudy Giuliani asked a judge for special treatment today, saying “I have no car, no credit card, no cash, everything I have is tied up, they have put stop orders on my business accounts, and I can’t pay my bills.” I’m sorry, but boo f*cking hoo.

Trump posts that he will implement a 25% tariff on all products coming into the United States from Mexico and Canada his first day in office and will add an additional 10% tariff above current levels on products imported from China. Buckle up for higher prices!

The guy spend a chunk of his childhood in an internment camp because our government thought he might be dangerous because he was of Japanese descent. He was also gay when you were forced to hide it. It’s been much worse for a lot of people in our history. George knows what he’s talking about.

@repadamschlff.bsky.social: “[The DOJ] waited a long time, and in fact may have waited indefinitely if the January 6 committee hadn’t brought all that evidence before the American people. It shouldn’t take Congress to do that. They should have done that on their own.”
