Billions of your tax dollars are going to Palantir — and the police state it's helping Trump build could soon be used against you.

I called out a panelist on Sean Spicer’s show for claiming that Alex Pretti was interfering with law enforcement right before he was murdered. It’s a bullshit talking point, and I’m sick of hearing it used to justify ICE agents shooting him three times in the back.

Trump wants you to forget that George Washington owned slaves.

☢️ NEW: As the Trump administration mulls Iran options, it is prepared to consider a proposal that allows Iran "token" nuclear enrichment if it leaves no possible path to a bomb. Another scenario “takes out the ayatollah and his son and the mullahs.”

At least the DOJ isn’t hiding its client list. Now release the Epstein files.

President Trump has landed in Georgia as the state's election board weighs the FBI's seizure of election records in Fulton County. Democracy Docket founder @marcelias.bsky.social joins The Weeknight to explain what this escalation from his admin. means ahead of the midterm election.

Breaking: New Mexico’s AG is reopening an investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s former Zorro Ranch. This comes as overseas calls for accountability seem to yield results with the arrest of fmr. Prince Andrew. @repstansbury.bsky.social & @repromero.bsky.social join The Weeknight to respond.

when you're a star, or an anesthesiologist married to a cabinet secretary, they let you do it, is the entire mentality of this regime

In a slow-motion race of two retail behemoths, Amazon's trump card was its lucrative cloud-computing business. n.pr/4qJHTOc

Trump has completely lost it. Congress has got to step in here. bsky.app/profile/jaco...

“This looks like a situation where an individual wanted to do maximum damage and massacre law enforcement,” a statement on the Pretti shooting, reportedly from McLaughlin, said. Maybe she needs to get her vision *and* her integrity checked.

A dozen is good but too few. If you are an elected Democrat in congress, there are 2 ways to engage with the SOTU with integrity: 1) Don't go. 2) Go and get kicked out, Al Green style. Everything else is wimpy.

Please join us virtually on March 12 for COURIER’s MAHA & the Midterms event in partnership with 3.14 Action. I’ll be speaking along with healthcare powerhouses to break down what’s happening and what’s at stake for families. Listen in and RSVP at: bit.ly/4tmcS5t

Like a breath of fresh air to hear President Obama say, "We're going to get through this." There's serious work to be done as long as we don't forget about decency and kindness.

Citizens United was the death blow to our democracy.

Does that seem fair to you?

If you think there’s NOTHING in our heritage (or in any nation’s) to be unapologetic about, you’re a fool. A dangerous fool.

UTAH: The Wasatch County GOP Chair, 54 y/o David Nephi Johnson, has been arrested on one count of first-degree felony aggravated child ab*se after allegations of waterboarding his own teen daughter.

According to ICE’s own data, none of its officers have been killed by an immigrant in the agency’s history.

Some of today’s Democrats aspire to return us to some pre-Trump “normal.” But for millions of Americans, that isn’t nearly good enough. The country needs a Democratic Party that seeks to create a new and far better “normal”—and that’s willing to fight the people standing in the way. trib.al/dU41NLe

The FBI is sharing details about a person they now consider to be a suspect in Savannah Guthrie's mother's alleged kidnapping. bit.ly/4qxPIGs

Sarah Longwell on the Epstein files: "The voters are genuinely confused as to why this guy, who they thought was going to be their advocate to uncover all the unseemly business of these global elites, now seems to be engaged in a cover-up."

Donald Trump is bragging that he's “very proud” of this economy. But his first year in office was marked by the weakest job growth in more than a decade outside of Covid. Trump needs to stop denying reality and start fixing the economic pain he's caused.

The six Republicans who broke with Trump on tariffs tonight, in context of his threat to primary those who cross him: Bacon (retiring) Newhouse (retiring) Kiley (district eliminated) Hurd (swing district) Fitzpatrick (swing district) Massie (he’s massie)

"Schumer and some of his colleagues remain strikingly unwilling to go on offense." The people are leading, and the leaders are not following.

Let this sink in about Pam Bondi.

⚡️Update: US not tying security guarantees to Ukrainian elections, Zelensky said. The U.S. is not pressuring Ukraine to hold elections by threatening to withdraw security guarantees, President Volodymyr Zelensky told reporters on Feb. 11.

Rich Eisen has a message for white people losing their minds over Bad Bunny's halftime show. And it's actually quite profound. Culture is not about dominance, or exclusion - that's a high school clique. Culture is about JOY. And you can't Culture War your way into respect. It must be mutual.

The FBI - now run by online influencers, hair tonic salesmen, and talk show hosts - has become a shell of its former self. The next President is going to have an enormous job to rebuild it.

Don’t be a “Panican” like Megyn Kelly, when you can be super chill on the side of right and good.

Spectacular reporting by @wired.com

"There’s only one reason why the director of national intelligence would go to the state of Georgia, not the country of Georgia, to investigate purported election violations."

“Raskin also said that he saw ‘references to 17-year-old girls, 16-year-old girls, 14-year-old girls, 11-year-old girls, 10-year-old girls, and I saw a reference today to a 9-year-old girl. So it is a really gruesome and grim story.’“ www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

I’d rather listen to Bad Bunny sing in all Spanish for the rest of my life than to hear Kid Rock bastardize English for 10 seconds!

Irish citizen with a valid American work visa, married to an American citizen, and no criminal record. Yet he was grabbed, disappeared, and sent to a concentration camp in Texas where he is forced to endure appalling conditions. www.irishtimes.com/world/us/202...

🚨 A coalition of House Democrats is sounding the alarm over new U.S. Postal Service changes. They say a new program could put millions of voters at risk in the 2026 midterm elections, particularly in rural communities and states with strict election deadlines.

This is who I am. This is what I do. Welcome to all the new people in the movement.

Donald Trump hasn't kept his promises, and he knows the American people are ready to hold him accountable. So now he's promising to cheat in the next election, if given the chance. We can't give him that chance.

Ronald Acuña Jr., a legendary baseball player with the Atlanta Braves, was on the set of Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show. See his cameo.

You know what they’re going to store in those warehouses? People

I see a lot of people saying Congress shouldn’t drag Todd Blanche in to testify on the Epstein cover-up because he’ll lie. Good—make him lie. If they can prove it later, they can prosecute him. Every lie is a trap. Give the Epstein class as many chances as possible to hang itself.
