Hertling: His comments about putting hands back on recruits… We moved away from that 30 years ago because it’s ineffective… You know where it didn’t go away? The Russian army.

President Pritzker is going to get record ratings when he takes a wrecking ball to that ballroom on prime time TV.

I’m with Governor Pritzker! #25thAmendmentNow #UnfitForOffice

Newsom answers Trump’s racist Jeffries videos… 👀

Pope Leo XIV weighed in on U.S. politics, saying Catholic politicians must be judged on the full range of their policy positions and suggesting the country's immigration policy is "inhuman."

🧵 Portland: ICE thugs assaulted disability rights activist Amanda Siebe as she filmed in a bike lane. Siebe, who uses a wheelchair, was body-checked to the ground. Protesters begged agents to be gentle, shouting “She’s disabled!” Instead, one agent sneered back: “She’ll be disabled now.”

Amanda is a mom, activist, and community leader in Portland now left bruised for daring to use her 1st Amendment rights. She told reporters: “My face smashed into the ground super hard. This shiner will look ‘awesome’ when I meet with my kid’s school tomorrow.” Violence & suppression of dissent.

Next time you find yourself in a discussion about the differences between liberals, leftists, democratic socialists, moderates, progressives, and never trumpers, remember: billionaires don't give a fuck. We're all the same to them: human capitol stock. And they love it when we fight each other.

If you hate the Pope because he is too “liberal”, I have some very bad news for you about Jesus.

A real pleasure to sit down for an extended conversation on The View today. My thanks to the studio audience for the very warm welcome.

Raskin: "It's not lost on anyone that shutting the government down allows them not swear in our new colleague, Ms Grijalva from Arizona, who would be the 218th signature to discharge the Epstein files and to put a vote on that on the House floor."

I think it's a wonderful time to remind people that Wikipedia runs on donations and is dedicated to being a source of true and unbiased information! donate.wikimedia.org

If the billions Disney lost for censoring Kimmel went to NPR and PBS that would be pretty cool.

Day 2 in D.C. and #AZ07 is still left without a vote and voice here in Washington.

Gee, I wonder why?

actually key to understanding this entire regime "I'm a very aesthetic person and I don't like some of the ships you're doing, aesthetically."

It’s still insane and disturbing to me that our troops went from being led by decorated 4-star Generals to a small disrespectful trashy idiotic Fox Propagandist rapist drunkard who installed a makeup area for himself at the Pentagon. Makes me sick every time I think about it.

Naturally Trump’s mouth gift wraps a perfect lawsuit for every government worker he fires after he makes it clear he is doing it solely for politics and is specifically targeting civil servants who are registered Democrats. He basically wrote their lawsuit for them today.

What a historic day for Chicago and Illinois. We're breaking ground on the Illinois Quantum and Microelectronic Park — and it begins with the construction of PsiQuantum's facility, where they’ll build a first-of-its-kind quantum computer.

The GOP will go to any lengths to cover for Trump, even if it’s just a freudian slip. 👇

Rep. Greg Casar: “There are more mentions of Trump in the Epstein Files than there are House Republicans here in Washington D.C. today.” #DonaldTrumpsShutdown

Hi Donald!

BREAKING: A second Trump-appointed U.S. attorney has been disqualified after a federal judge ruled her appointment invalid. Sigal Chattah is out as US attorney in Nevada, just like Alina Habba in NJ: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

The Secretary of Defense who only got the job because the president saw him on the teevee is complaining about military leaders who were promoted "for the wrong reasons"

This current American presidential administration is run by people who are quite obviously mentally ill, and we need to start talking about that.

"Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians." "Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians." "Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians." "Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians."

JEFFRIES TO TRUMP: “The next time you have something to say to me, don’t cop out through a racist and fake AI video — When I’m back in the Oval Office, say it to my face.”

I’m curious to know how many women he sexually assaulted.

If you think you’re having a crap day, take comfort in knowing there are multi-star Generals who were ordered to fly halfway around the world to listen to a nut job drone on about his election numbers.

I needed this happiness today. Absolutely wonderful to see my friend @markhamillofficial.bsky.social and a very happy birthday to my friend @stephaniemiller.bsky.social

So far today, Chuck Schumer has said his strategy for preventing Trump sending troops into blue cities is to win over Republican senators (!) while Hakeem Jeffries praised Eric Adams's courage and authenticity (!!) while refusing to endorse Mamdani. Again. These two gotta go.

There has been TWO mass shootings today and this is what he’s thinking about…

The Trump Administration's DHS officers appear to be carrying large weapons around downtown Chicago in camouflage and masks. This is not making anybody safer — it’s a show of intimidation, instilling fear in our communities and hurting our businesses.

Who asked for this?

Missouri's Governor just signed the GOP's illegal map. It will now be sued.

Portland is an amazing city. Here’s me, @dgcomedy.bsky.social and Andy McCabe at Polaris Hall at what can only be described as an unruly antifa gathering last year.

I still think it’s backwards that every mass shooter owning an AR-15 is considered a right while their victims’ healthcare is considered a privilege.

Jesus Christ, how are you so unbelievably bad at this? A deeply unpopular president is recklessly destroying our government, wrecking our democracy, covering up pedophilia and now threatening to use military force against our own citizens but you're tsk-tsking about protecting healthcare?

This is actually one of his better posts.

Our cities aren’t war ravaged. They’re ICE ravaged.

Ladies and gentlemen, the meritocracy

I have assumed this for some time, but we are seeing it play out in real time.

I’m gonna say it because no one else will: Nancy Pelosi running for reelection is the height of irresponsible egotistical self-soothing. She has contributed more than enough and her time has passed. The recalcitrant refusal of people like her and RBG to let new blood in is a BIG part of the

Donald Trump is going to wage war on American cities over a fake crisis that isn’t happening involving a fake “terrorist organization” which doesn’t exist, so he can stop us from talking about the real child sex trafficking files he’s very much in.

I wonder how many people fully appreciate that Trump just falsely declared the blue state of Oregon to be in a state of Rebellion against the United States so he could deploy active-duty military from the Department of War to kill American citizens Meanwhile, he *pardoned* the January 6 terrorists
