The other lesson is that the Bernie wings and the Warren wings must run with each other, not against each other. The reality is we are basically the same wing. Cannot let the narcissism of small differences destroy us—it helped us lose the 2020 primary and the Philadelphia mayoralty

This idiot is inviting terrorism on our soil. Enough!

BREAKING: Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, the prosecutor who took on President Trump, wins Democratic primary in reelection bid.

TRUE Iran offered to return to a deal like the 2015 Obama-era nuclear agreement, which strictly limited its nuclear program and included inspections. But Trump and Netanyahu rejected it, demanding harsher terms. Instead of diplomacy, they chose escalation—leaving the region and world less safe.

Morning Bluesky. Trump’s bombing may actually have sped up Iran’s nuclear programme.

This warmongering fucker needs to be impeached And if you're offended by my language, consider that I'm a NYT-bestselling Trump biographer and presidential historian who has done more research on the fact that Trump and Netanyahu planned this war for years than anyone writing in English

In happier news, E. Jean Carroll has a new book coming out and I suspect it's going to be delicious.

Enough! No way we should get involved.

AOC says she’s joining Republican Rep. Massie in prohibiting 🇺🇸 involvement in Israel’s war with Iran

They just caught the KILLER. The white nationalist Maga bastard Vance Boulter just got caught and taken into custody minutes ago. REPOST!

BREAKING: Suspect in the shooting of Minnesota lawmakers taken into custody - KSTP

Trump lied himself into a corner. He can’t deny support to Israel... the warhawks & evangelicals won’t allow it. But he promised the rest of MAGA no new wars. In the end, once US bases come under attack, the choice will be made for him. Maybe that’s what he’s counting on.

REMINDER: Netanyahu convinced Trump in 2018 to withdraw US from Iran nuclear deal that Obama and allies had negotiated. That Deal would've prevented Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. All the death and destruction we are seeing now is bc of Trump and Netanyahu www.timesofisrael.com/in-recording...

Yesssssss… I love this 🙌🏼

🧵White guy in body armor who targeted two lawmakers in a state where their deaths would flip the state House & tie the state Senate. The balance of probabilities leans one way here. Domestic MAGA terrorist. With Hortman's murder, the Repubs now have the majority in the State House of Minnesota.

So does this also mean the ICE agents who are regularly hiding their identity with face masks?

Terry Moran told the truth and ABC News appallingly suspended him. So-called journalistic “neutrality” serves a fascist regime. This is why we need independent media.

Let's go!

Wow. What a sign that criminal case against Abrego Garcia may be politically cooked up. "Schrader’s resignation was prompted by concerns that the case was being pursued for political reasons" Schrader spent 15 years in the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Nashville and was chief of the criminal division

UPDATE thread: This is likely the kind of shadow docket decision coming for NIH, HHS, and other agencies next week. Get ready, US scientists. Let's focus public attention on the Supreme Court now, so John Roberts worries about the backlash if he votes to allow the DOGE firings. 🧪 1/3

Bondi DOJ has a problem. On left: DOJ Indictment and Detention Memo allege Abrego Garcia lied to officer by not revealing he was coming from Texas On right: DHS Referral Report: "Subject stated he was driving 'three days ago' (11/27/2022) from Houston, TX to Temple Hills, MD (via St Louis, MO)"

Love seeing @nytimes.com swinging back at Elon Musk and defending our journalism against bad faith attacks.

But tell me again about Hunter’s drug use.

RFK Jr. is reportedly going to forbid government scientists from publishing in the world’s most respected medical journals — the Lancet, The New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA, etc. It’s going to take decades to repair the damage done by this administration.

Good read... many of us are in this space.

As Donald Trump pens deals in the Middle East, the gulf nation opens a research lab in San Francisco. www.wired.com/story/the-un...

WTF?

Secret detentions. False filings. Defiance of court orders. This is the new Administration at work. I break down three cases that show just how far we’ve slid toward authoritarianism. The courts are pushing back—but will it be enough? #RuleOfLaw #DemocracyWatch #Authoritarianism

Thank you to everyone who wrote to me to offer support about my appearance on 60 Minutes.🙏 I will never back down or go silent. I hope that what I write might help others, especially lawyers, speak out as well. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-t...

It time for some "good trouble"!

Call Congress, it truly is helpful.

This is why a president corrupts a Justice Department.
