Reporter: Do any of you have a favorite animal? Child: My favorite one is a gold snake that can move. It has gold eyes, and it has a super-duper tail… Reporter: Mr. Mamdani, the second question for you. Mamdani: Yes. It’s also the golden snake.

Here is the video of Hakeem Jeffries saying "fuck Donald Trump" for posting that racist video of the Obamas. (originally from his official Instagram account) www.instagram.com/reel/DUbeoy5...

Vice President JD Vance gets roundly booed at the opening ceremony of the Milano-Cortina 2026 Olympics. "Those are a lot of boos for him, whistling jeering," says the presenter. US athletes receive a warm welcome from fans, though.

I haven't stopped thinking about this SNL sketch. Not only hilarious, but so relevant. I hope it's happening across America.

Exactly this

fwiw i think this would be a perfect format for a modern liberal news outlet to disseminate reports

if i ran lion news, the mythical liberal fox, we would have segments today talking about the white house's "staffer" excuse - "does this mean a foreign adversary has access to the trump social account? or that the president has either dementia or a rogue staffer, meaning theres a security problem"

theres this idea that trump is a master manipulator, carefully deploying news stories so one gets covered and another is not. this is nonsensical. its based on the idea that we can only focus on one thing at a time.

fwiw the white house deleting the post kind of disproves the people insisting its an orchestrated distraction

Yesterday @politico.com in California spent over dozen paragraphs ridiculing a silly phrase from @governor.ca.gov for no good reason. What are the chances an outlet like them or AXIOS will express any objective revulsion at Trump depicting Obamas as apes and call out his mental/health capacity?

you: republicans werent a cult of personality before trump me: i actually remember 2006 youtu.be/LeD8-SnLtwE

the president's comms channels can literally rock world markets and cause international and domestic chaos. so either option: he's intentionally posting racist stuff (my belief) or he's so reckless he's allowing rando staffers to post racist shit that stays up for hours (the white house spin)

white house narrative this morning: the president is NOT racist and you are FAKE NEWS for asking about it white house narrative this afternoon: it was merely a STAFFER being ACCIDENTALLY RACIST and the president definitely did not post the meme we said wasnt racist 3 hours ago

No, they don’t get away with “accident.” Caroline Leavitt defended it completely, as a reference to “The Lion King” and slammed the “fake outrage”

Trump's racist post depicting the Obamas as monkeys has been deleted, with the White House claiming "a staffer erroneously made the post." This comes after Karoline Leavitt defended the video, asking the public to "stop the fake outrage."

Cowardly and racist is an amazing combination. We all know that wasn't a staffer and that he meant that shit. bsky.app/profile/leba...

trump has deleted the racist post showing the obamas as apes, which leaves karoline leavitt out to dry for defending it to the hilt earlier.

hell im 48 and i was very alive when the nfl consensus was that all black QBs had to be "running" QBs and they just couldnt be pocket passers because ya know, wink wink wink and you'd be like "but warren moon..." "well there's an occasional outlier..."

Donald Trump is a racist.

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

The NYT changed the entire framing of this story from earlier, when many of us were critical. Referring to something Trump did a “blatantly racist” is as direct as it gets.

Over on X, the Everything App, serious conservative thinker Dinesh D'Souza shared a video of an AI-generated woman on a fake podcast he seemingly thought was real, telling the audience that young women should get with older men. Dude, wtf?

1. deregulate everything and destroy all regulators so nothing functions in the public interest under the pretense this "aids innovation" and "empowers entrepreneurs" 2. blame poor people and minorities when nothing works

oh yeah. its also black history month.

people need to see they need to see when the president is racist they need to see when kids are killed by gun violence they need to see when our bombs drop on brown skinned people abroad im tired of sticking our heads in the sand. people need to see.

I hope this happens every day for the rest of his miserable life lasvegassun.com/news/2026/fe...

What an absolutely disgusting and disgraceful post by Trump. But this is who he has always been: racist to his core and rotten in his soul. Good people everywhere should stand up and reject this.

could do without the question part but overall good. this is the way.

This is racist garbage from President Trump. If you’re finding yourself defending it, you’re on the wrong side of history. www.nbcnews.com/politics/whi...

Donald Trump posted a racist, vile video of Barack and Michelle Obama. It’s an absolute embarrassment that the President continues to use a bully pulpit out of his own insecurity. Every single Republican should be denouncing this bigotry.

we cant tell ourselves myths like this. maga people do not read the new york times. the new york times is read and consumed by liberals. liberals are the overwhelming subscriber base and it is liberal dollars that fuel the ny times' crusades against trans people and democrats. we are the problem.

Holy shit it’s not great political strategy to constantly denounce your own voters?!

I'm sorry when was AOC a "left-wing agitator?" She was an elected member of congress. She didn't harass fellow members like MTG did/does. Is being left of Pelosi considered being an "agitator" by the NYT's? Does Kellen know what being a "left-wing agitator" means?

It's simple really, when it's outrage over some obvious and quickly corrected slip from a Democrat it's genuine and must be covered on a minimum of 3 front pages, when it's outrage about the President on yet another gutter racism jag, it's fake and will never make the print edition.
