As some have pointed out my “trump is fuming, both privately and publicly” reporting can grow tiresome because he’s frequently mad; and “trump seethes” reporting since 2017 has so often been superfluous. However, some things highlighted by MS Now here and in our @zeteo.com coverage that I think are…

Sadistic men with massive personality issues run our government And no one seems to want to stop their killing spree.

For what it's worth (and to me, it's worth a lot), in New York, recommendations to vaccinate infants within 24 hours of birth remain unchanged.

I'm not exaggerating when I say following @boltsmag.org rn will unlock money for our journalism. A generous reader, @russ41.bsky.social, has offered to donate $1 for every 1-person increase to our follower count. If you're not following @boltsmag.org yet, it'll directly help fund our reporting!

coming soon: "the constitution is unconstitutional"

Maybe he could be more specific on how this happened...

I swear to God we live in some truly fucked up simulation

When you look at calling him President, we have a little conflict over what that really means.

Thankful to have the powerful and passionate voice of the President of the American Academy of Pediatrics, Dr Susan Kressly, on with us this morning. We will not stay silent and be cowed by utter nonsense at the top. More of this incoming. Thank you @ameracadpeds.bsky.social

their goal is to kill children and every Republican senator who knew better and voted to confirm him anyway has that blood on their hands

I mean at this point there are two coherent goals in the Trump administration that are likely the brain child of Vought and co. that are really kind of dark.

NBC NEWS: Jack Smith’s final report “said that Trump ‘inspired his supporters to commit acts of physical violence’ by spreading ‘demonstrably and, in many cases, obviously false’ claims about the 2020 election.” @ryanjreilly.com www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Oopsies

This is fucking insanity Shame on the “senators” who knew better but set this guy loose on the American people. My god is there no bottom?

again Who could have seen this coming?

L O freaking L You mean they caught one of their own? This means we'd better arrest all of the people who believe in election conspiracies, right? Isn't that how this works now? Huh...

$5000 to the first journalist who says "Do you honestly think the American people are this stupid?"

Paging Bob Kraft, Bob Kraft, please report to the RED phone stat

THIS IS WHAT HELL MUST BE LIKE

Come on COME ON

Come on COME ON

www.cbp.gov/newsroom/loc... these are compressed bricks

Newsom understands how to humiliate someone who absolutely hates being humiliated. And Dems need a whole lot more of this. Trump cannot stand when people highlight exactly who he is in a way he can’t spin or outrun. If you’re planning on running for president, this is the skill set you better master

How do people not see the pathology present in every member of the administration?

When you don't know if this refers to a football game, the Bruins season, or America as we know her.

Another good one in Katherine Clark from MA. Why don’t we see her more? I don’t know folks- what’s wrong with Americans? Just stupid?

WATCH: “The video is really troubling. And if people see it, I don’t think it’s going to be good for Secretary Hegseth or this administration,” says Rep. Adam Smith on footage revealing U.S. forces repeatedly attacking two survivors on a capsized vessel.

Why don’t we see and hear more from congressman Adam Smith? What a smart guy. There are so many qualified democrats- wish we saw more of them.

she just oozes warmth, doesn't she?

Thi is the biggest news of the day with the most impact. The rest is just sideshow.

They're not even trying to appear nonpartisan anymore.

freaking hell

Just FYI This isn’t fine It’s not normal behavior for the President It’s normal for a retiree after lunch What are we even doing here?

How would a serious country cover a president in this kind of decline?

Dear corporate media: here is your simple explainer for the IG report on Signalgate. The information was properly classified. It was copied from a classified written document. It was sent over a non-classified system, namely Signal. Hegseth took no steps to declassify any of it. End of article.

The responses in this thread are hilarious People are funny

The photo desk did well here

Revoke his clearance. Now.

Pete Hegseth bears responsibility for THIS (hat tip @natashabertrand.bsky.social)

JFC thank you This dovetails nicely with “but he just seems so much more lively than say, Biden when he speaks…” Sure- it’s easy to sound peppy when you can say anything and not have to worry about facts or logic .

JFC what the hell is wrong with these people.

These are good moments to remember that the CEOs of all the biggest companies in America are happy to go to White House dinners and slap this guy’s back. They do not care about this. Remember this, years from now, when they want you to forget.

Are you fucking kidding me

TN07 is a story about gerrymandering: the GOP cracked Nashville into 3 districts when it redrew the 2022 map, destroying the Dem seat there. Fast-forward: a section of Nashville, which just 5 years ago had a Dem representative, is now voting Dem by huge margins but it's been designed to not matter.

I think a narrow R win is likely here, but that would be a result that should and will spark massive panic among House Republicans and probably kill the gerrymandering push in most red states.

First #TN7 results to hit come in from cherry-red Stewart & Wayne counties (For reference Wayne has been 95% trump in the past)

Trust me, I'm nauseous. We're ALL nauseous.

This might be the most psychotic thing I’ve heard someone in this admin say, and that’s a high bar. It’d be different if the point was “we’ve created so many jobs that a lot fewer people can’t afford food,” but that is def not the point. Joy. She said “joy.” Joy!

There are 75,977 people born in Somalia who are now citizens of the United States, including those specific people. He is talking about US citizens. He is talking about *us*. The truth is that none of us are garbage, and the job of the US president is to represent all of us. We, the people.
