At a confab of European leaders last week in Brussels after Trump’s Davos speech on Greenland, the right-wing pro-Trump prime minister of Slovakia told them that Trump had seemed “out of his mind” and “dangerous” during the one-on-one meeting he’d just with him at Mar-a-Lago.

He was shot while on his knees protecting a woman. He was unarmed… say what you want… we can see.

lol is the “deal” that the United States gets what it currently gets, but everyone gives Trump a shiny object so that he’ll be distracted?

No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.

Terrific candidate

We must stress: The only violence is coming from CBP/ICE. They are rioting in the face of sustained nonviolent protests by thousands of Americans across the country. They are today’s Alabama State Troopers at the Selma bridge. They are Bull Connor’s police with firehoses in Birmingham.

I also must say that it's a bit rich that Trump and his DOJ think it's a good idea to gin up a bullshit investigation about supposed illegalities in ... {checks notes} … renovating a federal building

Just a nightmare that our country has come to this.

Amen, Adam!

Four generations of my family have served our country. Service is in my blood. The President wouldn’t know anything about that.

And on this kind of garbage hang the fates of nations

This is an absolutely terrible idea.

The US produces >13 mn barrels of oil per day. Venezuela produces <1 million bpd There's a global oil glut i.e. lower prices. That's bad for US producers, who need higher prices to break even. Hard to imagine they're eager to make big new investments in an unstable place w/ decrepit infrastructure

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

My main takeaway from the Jack Smith testimony: we should push our presidential candidate to make him Attorney General in 2029.

On a day when the Kennedy family is grappling with an unimaginable personal loss, Donald Trump chose to use his platform to launch petty, vindictive attacks against them. Yet another stunning display of cruelty and utter lack of basic human decency.

No matter how deep the darkness, sparks of light, beauty, and joy surround us—in, say, a baby’s smile, a lover’s touch, a refugee family’s safe arrival in a place of sanctuary, the first drops of rain on dry earth, a fragile monarch butterfly pausing its 3,000-mile migration to sip nectar ...

ICE’s cruelty is tearing our neighbors apart during the holiest time of the year. As faithful Americans, we demand that ICE stop attacking our neighbors. Watch our new ad with @protectdemocracy.org and then head over to LoveNotICE.org to add your name to our letter. #LoveNotICE

The hero of Bondi: Ahmed el Ahmed, a 43 year old fruit shop owner from Sutherland. He grabbed the gun off one of the terrorists shooting at Jews during a Hanukkah celebration. Ahmed was then shot in the leg and shoulder by another terrorist. He’s being treated in the hospital and expected to be OK.

Trump dozes while Marco Rubio speaks to him directly next to him. Just insane optics.

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

The announcement of health insurance companies that they’ll continue covering routine vaccinations is a huge vote of no confidence in ACIP's recommendations. It reflects a desire by insurers to avoid the cost of illnesses by having their customers vaccinated. Gift link:

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

Just a vile thing to say.

As a bookish kid, I admired the Supreme Court for having the character to unanimously come out against segregation in the 1950s, when no other branch of our government would have had that courage. So it saddens me to see it lose its way and endorse judging people for the color of their skin today.
