Dr. just prescribed a new medication for me - $705 co-pay. I’d like to thank Trump for reducing that cost by 600%. I couldn’t have afforded it otherwise 😳

After sleeping on this speech (not easy) it's clear this is Trump's "Willie Loman" moment. This is what happens when a salesperson realizes the pitch isn't working any more - they raise their voice, use more superlatives, make false promises, and lie.

For those of us with children with challenges, I think I speak for them when I say I think Trump can go fuck himself. (Apologies for the language but we must defend our children and those who can’t defend themselves)

Rep Jared Moskowitz summed up this insane day of Trump bowing to Mamdani and MTG resigning: today would be a great day to be a writer for Saturday Night Live

Thanks to Joe Scarborough @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social for calling out the Republicans on their "outrage" over the video made enforcing active service people to defy ILLEGAL orders! The key word is ILLEGAL! I will say what Joe wanted to say...the GOP is lying through their fking teeth!!!

I stand with Senator Elissa Slotkin and the 5 other Democrat patriots who stood for our Constitution today

The clothes? Or the person wearing them?

Molly, please tell me this is The Onion…….😳

Today I am totally proud that Elissa Slotkin is my Senator.

When Jeffrey Epstein thinks you’re a scumbag, you must REALLY be an all-time scumbag!

Please don’t paint us with a broad brush. Many of us are truly appalled - 7 million marched last weekend - that’s not nothing. But it’s going to take years/decades for our country to come back and earn the trust of the rest of the world - including Canada Please be there for us And go Blue Jays!

Tonight I co-hosted my very first political fundraiser for ⁦Mallory McMorrow‬⁩. Overflow crowd heard her tell her story and vision for Michigan. She’s smart and authentic - exactly what our state and country need right now

We never left. Trump commands so much attention we need opportunities to come together like this to cut through. We should do it more often!

A final thought about the #NoKings event. People were happy. They were smiling. Talking with strangers. It took me a few minutes to recognize these behaviors because it’s been a while. I liked it. And I missed it.

Today is a great day for America. Not only was our #NoKings rally in Ferndale, Michigan huge, it was peaceful, positive, and patriotic. The only vitriol was focused on our leaders who don’t believe in our Constitution and only want power and wealth. This is what makes America great!!

Independent media is our future. Recognizing the decline of corporate news orgs, my company builds full featured iPhone and Android mobile apps for independent news organizations at a very fair price. It’s our way of helping them broaden distribution and usage. DM me or go to jacapps.com.

We’ve already got Thom Tillis and Joni Ernst out. Susan Collins is next. Republican politicians know they’re in deep trouble and they’re torn between representing their constituents or kneeling to Trump. The constituents will win every time if they pay attention, get off the couch, and get involved

The Epstein survivors hold their press conference Tuesday morning. So get ready for the mother of all distractions Tuesday morning as well Invasion of Chicago? Trump’s health? End of elections? Something worse? Get ready

A special thank-you to Ali Velshi for his passionate rant this morning: “Where’s the party?” Dem leadership has to stop writing letters and making statements and get off their asses to actually fight for our country. If not, they should be replaced

The only thing Trump respects is leverage. Governor Pritzker, you gave a great speech but do you want real leverage? How about a State takeover of that awful Trump Hotel in downtown Chicago if he sends the troops in? That’s the Chicago way!

Speech of the year! All Dems, take note. This is what your base has been waiting for. Protect your state Protect your citizens Protect our Democracy

The only way we restore our country is one seat at a time - local, state, and national. We need to call out every Republican for their destructive votes. There should be no such thing as a low turnout election with the stakes so high

The Feds taking over DC is actually like a TV show production- - block the streets, coordinate the wardrobe, and follow the script. And a lot of standing around. Remember, everything Trump does is a made for TV production

How about a moose charging right at you?

In every Congressional race, Dems should show this photo with the Republican candidate next to them in all TV ads. No Republican should escape the stench of their alignment with Trump and Epstein

I’ve consulted public radio stations for 20+ years. Currently, 10% of listeners are members. If that number rose to 20% they’d be financially independent It’s up to us to save and support local public radio stations -it’s not hard and it’s worth it Please support them - your community needs NPR

I love how some public radio and television stations are fighting back . . . . And with a little attitude!

As traditional local media fades it’s replaced by independent outlets. We’ve decided to help them grow and have developed a very inexpensive mobile app. If you have a fave (like Distill Social) contact me - we need to help these efforts grow and increase their impact. @jacapps

1/ If Justice Barrett thinks we need to go back to what the Founding Fathers intended, I’ve got news for her. Their biggest concern was avoiding tyranny. So they created 3 branches of gov’t & divvied up the power the people (that’s us) were allowing the gov’t to use to create order for all of us.

The old guy with dementia and physical issues didn’t pay his respects to the Hortmans. Joe Biden did instead

You wonder how/why Mamdani won? Compare this action taken with Chuck Schumer writing angry letters to Trump. Democrats need energetic, generational change (and I’m 70). And if Ken Martin and Democratic leadership can't bring it like this every day, please kindly step aside.

Turmp is an awful human, but I have to wonder how Alice Cooper feels about this? x.com/atrupar/stat...

I sleep better when I know Trump is on the golf rather than the Situation Room

I’m a media consultant and own a mobile app company. As local news shrinks and news deserts grow, it’s imperative progressive independent news outlets fill the gap. To help, we are now developing low cost apps to help expand their impact and reach Spread the word apps.apple.com/us/app/disti...

Great minds! ☺️

One thing I’m confident of - should Trump ever receive a similar diagnosis, those of us who hate him with a passion will respond with much more class and sympathy than this total asshole

At a time when being cruel is en vogue at the top leadership in our country, we all need to be more like Joe Biden. One of the hallmarks of Trump’s impact on our country is how cruel we’ve become. Let us emulate Joe Biden and not Donald Trump.

Someone at MSNBC has got a wonderful sense of humor 💩

Trump wants to pardon Derek Chauvin because he wants an uprising so he call out the military and invoke martial law. So why not do a national worker’s strike - smarter, bigger impact, and what’s Trump going to do, arrest us for not going to work? It’s time to be smart.

Sharing my favorite cartoon this morning to make sure you know you aren’t alone with your feelings

If you buy something on Amazon, post a copy of the receipt on social media to showcase the impact of the tariffs - they are itemizing the tariff tax This is how you take a complex issue and make it easy to understand. Of course, you should shop local whenever possible and show those receipts

We are all Piglet. Every freaking day.

If you’re wondering why Trump is backpeddling so fast on tariffs and firing Fed Chair Powell, he knows how to read polls and he’s sinking fast

Oops, Trump screwed Americans again www.nytimes.com/2025/04/12/u...

"Egg Prices Hit Record High — Days After Trump’s Claim They Were ‘Down 79%" Trump is such a genius! Keeping his campaign promises so quickly! Ummm . . . I mean he is a consummate, full-time LIAR. Is America really that dumb to embrace this corrupt moron? www.mediaite.com/food/egg-pri...

My friend, Rima Dael, the CEO of the National Fed. of Community Broadcasters, makes a powerful case for supporting public media, but also all investments for the public good. A very important read. www.radioworld.com/columns-and-...
