💯😠...🤔 Maybe @lin-manuel-miranda.bsky.social could "adapt" the production to the circumstances (orange-tinted corpulent mad king, etc.)... or just say "no". Thank you, @radiofreetom.bsky.social

💯😠... 🧐 Hey! @lin-manuel-miranda.bsky.social ... maybe you should do the show but add a contextually pertinent "prologue"... ... and you could embellish George the Third with orange makeup. What can they do? Shut off the microphones?

💯😠✊ BREAKING NEWS: Issa Rae has canceled her sold out performance at the Kennedy Center. Pulitzer Prize winner Rhiannon Giddens, Peter Wolf, Low Cut Connie, and the Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington, D.C., have also canceled. Lin-Manuel Miranda has canceled the entire Kennedy Center run of Hamilton.

💯😠 "O'DONNELL: Why did you pardon Changpeng Zhao? TRUMP: Are you ready? I don't know who he is"... Thank you, @torrleonard.bsky.social and @atrupar.com

💯😠 Thank you, @garrettepps.bsky.social

💯😠... and Navarro is not alone "I wasn’t going to read this—I know what Navarro is—but I’m glad I clicked. There are worse people in the world, but never has there been such a crushingly devastating profile. Here is the true, puny, pathetic essence of Trumpism." per @jeffsharlet.bsky.social (h/t)

💯😠 "This is the world Justice Kavanaugh sanctioned in his foolish & unnecessary concurring opinion to the Court’s order in Noem v Vasquez Perdomo. His hopes of cleaning up that blunder with a plaintive footnote ... in Trump v. Illinois, demonstrates his staggering naïveté." Per @sifill.bsky.social

💯😠... It is chilling to read the summary of our tragic predicament along with the itemization of charges... h/t @nellminow.bsky.social (see here: www.linkedin.com/posts/nellmi...) www.nycbar.org/reports/the-...

🧐... Cannot read behind the paywall, but the thread does enough to raise eyebrows... ... and it's unclear whether the greatest risk is addiction to the highs, corruption from insider info, or con games by a few bad actors in their midst (think sports betting...) h/t @torrleonard.bsky.social

💯🧐✊

💯😠✊* * left-handed fist!

💯 Stopped watching the network news and the late night views after the last election but continued to follow @jdickerson.bsky.social here and more recently on Substack... ... and ikewise for @stephencolbert.bsky.social Thanks to both! h/t @jessiebrewer.bsky.social youtu.be/KpV4qfUSu6I...

💯🧐... "this image is maybe the single greatest joke in TRADING PLACES. and also a pretty apt description of the trump/vance/national conservative vision of america" per @jamellebouie.net ... ... and thank you, @alansiegella.bsky.social

💯😠...🧐...🙄 Agreed^2 after having seen Graeme Wood on what BW "got right and wrong". Disappointed that GW says BW accurately says this was "old news", but denaturing the horror via PR is not dispositive... ... and CBS *did* give the WH a chance to participate. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

substack.com/@ejgoldstick... Thank you, @knecessary.bsky.social and @davidpepperoh.bsky.social

💯😠 Yesterday, someone* suggested that the fusion of the Dunning-Kruger and Streisand Effects should be called the Bari Weiss Effect... ... but the horror of this context makes it worse than just narcissism. * w/apologies for not having saved the link to cite. Thank you, Sharyn Alfonsi...

💯😠 "This project is using very big data to show what @jamellebouie.net keeps saying: the yglesias types aren't standing in reporting about some silent majority backlashing against CRT, DEI, and progressive racial ideology. They ARE the backlash." Thank you, @jakemgrumbach.bsky.social et al.

Somewhere I saw @kevinrkosar.bsky.social post *today* quoting @jamiedupree.bsky.social (see insert) Anybody see that? Whatever his intent, the entire post is entitled "House Republicans block vote on extending insurance subsidies" and it merits reading... jamiedupree.substack.com/p/house-repu...

💯👍😀🫵 Thank you, Phil Williams!! @philinvestigates.com

💯😠 Was there an X-rated version w/ certain black robed figures in comproming positions...

💯😠... no, 🤬! This list is "only" about health care and is not complete if one considers the full scale assault on vaccination and the attacks on nurses and doctors who got caught up in ICE raids and deportation... Again, that's "only" health care... Thank you, Dr. @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social

💯😠... no, 🤬! This list is "only" about health care and is not complete if one considers the full scale assault on vaccination and the attacks on nurses and doctors who got caught up in ICE raids and deportation... But like I said, that's "only" health care...

Sixteen (!) documents removed from the online DOJ repository of 5:13 PM on Saturday, Feb. 20... Reminds one of the second visit to Mar-a-Lago... see apnews.com/article/rele...

The Trump family has amassed a $4 billion fortune since his re-election. During my time as Ambassador, I was accused of "focusing too intensely on the issue of corruption." There's no such thing. We need leaders who serve the people — not themselves. www.wsj.com/politics/tru...

💯🇺🇸✊️ thank you, @wrytir.bsky.social

~💯...🤔...😠 Since only the first three paragraphs are visible before the paywall, I am guessing ex-Senator Romney does not discuss the ongoing collapse of the constitutional order of things beyond suggesting that DOGE was overreach... Where have you been, Mitt? Thank you, @timothynoah.bsky.social

💯😠

💯😠✊ "Good. American excellence in science is the result of decades of federal investment in facilities and in training scientists. NCAR does not belong to the President. It belongs to all of us." @costasamaras.com Thank you, @bennet.senate.gov & @hickenlooper.senate.gov

Today I received FOUR death notifications for people in ICE custody. That's 30 deaths since Trump took office. It's appalling & unacceptable.   ICE is required—by law—to ensure detainees are safe & their basic needs are met. It's clear this isn't the case. We NEED answers.

💯😠 Let's hope the other board members who were silenced will add their voices soon... Thank you, @repbeatty.bsky.social

💯😠✊ Excellent diagnosis of "their" predicament (other than the truly deluded...) as well as "our" challenge... h/t @colindickey.com

💯😠😥💔 There is no bottom to their shameless behavior. Thanks for reporting this, @doritreiss.bsky.social

💯😠... 🤔 How would Elon respond? With so much of his wealth in shares of important if volatile public companies or potentially hidden in crypto, would he care if he had to live on foreign soil? Perhaps he would buy an island somewhere and declare independence? see: www.npr.org/2023/05/04/1...

💯🧐 These photos capture their empty souls better than any of the squirmy patter between Wiles and Whittle... Thank you, @andersonphoto.bsky.social* * if it is you... and if not, to your namesake. h/t @craigcalcaterra.bsky.social

💯😠... and it is not this simple, but: - Carter got Nixon's inflation... - Clinton got 41's recession... - Obama got the Great Recession of 2008... - Biden got the COVID pandemic cleanup... ... but post-Trump will be all of that and worse because it was self-inflicted.

💯😠🧐 There are some officers like Andrew Bacevich who followed the honorable path along with others who can be respected for their post-career stances. I would like to know the service trajectory and current rank of the author without needing to know the name... h/t @jfallows.bsky.social

💯😠✊ 🇺🇸 Perfect! Thank you, @mkn.bsky.social

💯💔 "One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives." per @skepchick.org w/thx ... and it can also inform and inspire everyone else.

💯😠 "this is one of the most psychotic things Trump has ever posted" per @atrupar.com... At least the uniformed personnel in the Oval were allowed to leave when the questions about it started... or did they file out spontaneously? Thank you, @atrupar.com and @jfallows.bsky.social

On a personal note. I knew Rob Reiner & his lovely wife Michelle. One of my happiest memories was chatting with them in their kitchen, making sandwiches talking politics, and movies. They were kind people. Extraordinarily normal and very, very kind. I love & miss them already. Life is short.

💯...💔 I am relieved to have found this as a counter to the vile response of DJT. Rob Reiner's memory *IS* a blessing for his humanity *and* humility that were the catalysts for his creative energies... h/t @tonygoldmark.bsky.social

💯 I thought of this (seen and saved weeks ago) while listening closely to Erika Kirk with Bari Weiss on CBS... ... and though I don't see how "Joe Biden did that" to trans people, it is increasingly obvious that this issue "worked" for Trump in '24. Thank you, TNC www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qv85...

💯💔😓 Some will say that this is "just messaging"... ... but I, for one, endorse the message. Thank you, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social h/t @normornstein.bsky.social

💯🤬 "I genuinely don't think I've ever seen a more transparently corrupt government and I'm from India" per @nameshiv.bsky.social w/thanks for sharing. @judgeluttig.bsky.social @tribelaw.bsky.social @scotusblog.com et al.: How is this legal, not to mention constitutional???
