Texas redistricts without a vote, Republicans cheer. Dems in Virginia respond by putting it UP FOR A VOTE OF THE PEOPLE, it passes, Republican cry foul. Oh well. Good job Virginia!!

Someone should ask JD Vance: “You warned the Pope to be more careful when speaking about theology. Do you have any criticism for Hegseth who recited a made up Bible quote from the movie Pulp Fiction at a Pentagon prayer service? And why is Hegseth leading prayer services at DOD anyway?”

We can't keep looking away from his emotional and cognitive issues. The attack on the Pope was the beginning of a full night of melting down. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Worth noting that Hungary was much further down the road to fascism than we are. And with one election and a motivated electorate, it’s over.

Spending a nice Sunday doing my Sunday things while sitting outside, enjoying the peacefulness. Listening to the birds and smelling lilacs. My version of "touching grass" before Monday sets in.

This is the type of energy we need.

To conservatives who’ve objected when some of us have suggested Trump is a fascist, and who’ve complained when some us point out that much of real existing American conservatism has devolved into fascism, if you’re silent about Trump’s threat of genocide you’re proving the point you’ve objected to.

Well darn. I was hoping for a Illinois-Michigan game Monday. Sigh. Go Blue anyway.

When the executive is eager to ignore Congress is precisely when Congress most needs to step up.

Pretty good weekend. Participared in our local NKD, met up with friends for dinner out, got a nice walk in with another friend this morning, and have an olive oil cake in the oven. Will watch our PBS Sunday night shows then it's back to work tomorrow. No real complaints.

On #NoKings day, my piece just before the 2024 election about George Washington - and how Trump was everything he feared and despised. (gift) www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

This is so nauseatingly Un-American

Pete Hegseth removed 4 decorated Army officers—2 Black, 2 women—from a promotion list. The Army Secretary refused, calling their records exemplary. Hegseth overrode it. Possibly illegally. They gave decades to this country. He erased them & called it meritocracy. This is white Christian nationalism.

Think voting doesn’t matter? 766 votes.

I'm old enough to remember living in a time when the adults were in charge. Now we we're living in the Age of Ignorance & Dumbfuckery...

So now Democrats are more of an enemy than Russia or China. The evil that permeates trumps soul grows and grows. Every Christian leader that does not speak up is complicit.

Remember when people were fired for *reposting* accurate quotes from Charlie Kirk after he was killed.

Democrats have offered to pay the salaries — fully fund, no conditions — for TSA. It’s Republicans who keep blocking that.

ICE detention deaths are now occurring at a rate of roughly one every four days. Three weeks ago that rate was one every six days. The pace is accelerating, and Congress has not launched a single investigation.

He was certainly afraid of Vietnam-style combat in Vietnam.

mom can you pick me up at the strait of hormuz, my friends are laughing at me and wont help

Read this headline. Now read it again. Now read it again. You are not alarmed enough. It is later than you think. 🇺🇸 deadline.com/2026/03/trum...

If Joe Biden's son-in-law was flying around the Middle East as an unofficial Secretary of State while also working on business deals for his company with the same people he was meeting with on behalf of the US government, I'm pretty sure it would be a bigger story 🤔

As though we needed any more evidence that Fox "News" is a mendacious propaganda machine and not remotely a serious journalistic enterprise. Still, this is pretty astounding.

It's depressing how many flag-waving, pocket Constitution wielding, "patriots" 🙄 don't understand that Commander in Chief is very purposefully NOT a military rank or position within in military.

Quick reminder: Epstein.

Trump gets angry at Fox News' Peter Doocy for asking about Russia helping Iran to kill Americans during his roundtable on college sports. Trump: "What a stupid question that is to be asking at this time. We're talking about something else." Priorities for the US Commander in Chief.

My book "How to Eat an Elephant" hits shelves Sept. 8 but it's available for pre-order starting today. At its core, this book is about communications, persuasion, voters, and how to save America from the toxic forces Trump has unleashed on our politics. www.thebulwark.com/p/a-very-spe...

she forgot Rule #1: You cover Trump's ass, he doesn't cover your ass.

Pete Hegseth, if he does not resign, should at least get out of the way and let better men than him talk to the nation and to the press. www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/...

NEW: Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser (D) says Gov Jared Polis (D) offering clemency to Tina Peters "would be a grave miscarriage of justice and dangerous for free and fair elections."

“Mr President, the bombings have begun in Tehran and also customers are complaining we have run out of shrimp at the pool buffet.”

This is true in rougly the same sense that a guy on the subway reeking of urine, screaming, and waving a knife around is “feared.”

The reason we're here is that tens of millions of people will punch a hole in a wall if they hear someone used food stamps to buy soda but they're fine if the right-wing podcaster turned fbi director uses his taxpayer funded private jet to go party whenever he feels like it bsky.app/profile/thed...

It's not a new observation, but I'm always struck listening to Trump cry and whine about how he's the victim, bitch and moan about how mean and unfair everyone is to him, brag endlessly about how great he is and how unfair it all is, to remember that his cult thinks he's the Peak Alpha Male

The Cabinet this week *RFK Jr. bragged about snorting cocaine off of a toilet seat *Lutnick acknowledged taking his family to Epstein island *Bondi “The Dow” / refuses to look at victims *Noem blanket *Hegseth loses to Kelly, tries to tweet through it *Bessent “tariffs don’t cause inflation”

When our military becomes politicized, we all lose. The National Guard and Armed Forces must serve the nation, not partisan agendas. Read my piece in @newsweek.com and learn more about the new @thecountryfirst.bsky.social education campaign www.newsweek.com/adam-kinzing...

Ad for CBP and not one of them was wearing a mask? 🤔

Pro tip to House reporters: Print this out and have with you BEFORE you interview Mike Johnson later today.

With a few exceptions, the items in this list are already the law. Republicans are saying it’s unrealistic for Trump’s goons to follow the law.
