For what it’s worth, I do not believe the current president of the United States will ever establish a presidential library.

May 2026. It just keeps getting worse...

@wagnertonight.msnbc.com Are you starring in a commercial for a banking company, or is that your doppelgänger in it? youtu.be/hwY922381e4?...

This, from 2019? Hard to believe… youtu.be/koJ-lmbdYLk?...

I seem to recall that Biden said he was going to just be “an interim president,” not serving more than one term. What happened to that? Did he get bitten by the ambition bug? Same with Ruth Bader Ginsburg… they don’t want to give up the game and retire.

Do you know who has NOT received the Mark Twain Award for humor? STEPHEN COLBERT! How crazy is that?

Interesting to read the articles about Ted Turner and his wives and lovers, and compare it with those with what we read about Mr. Trump. One might align both men’s business successes and failures, and especially their business practices, and note a similar distinction.

Thank you for your courage to publicly address abusive language.

It seems to me that anyone wishing to get the approval of voters would work to make them happier not more miserable and fearful.

Tomorrow would have been my father’s birthday. My parents divorced when I was six, and I never saw him again. But, among other things I would want to ask him about is what it’s like to have a birthday on April Fool’s Day. Do people give you exploding cigars? A gag birthday cake?

I remember going through the nationwide pain, sadness, depression of late 1963, early 1964, after the Kennedy murder. We needed something positive. Along came the Beatles. Today, the country is hurting again. What positive thing can help us cope? “Project Hail Mary,” maybe?

Sending ICE agents to airports because there’s no funding for TSA people because of the actions of ICE agents.

Gotta love Border Collies.

Would be interesting if Trump’s illegal war did topple a regime, but not the one he has in mind.

Why am I listening to the theme from “A Summer Place” during a dog food commercial, and Ace of Base’s “I Saw the Sign” during a commercial for an anti gas and bloating drug? Feels like waking up from a nap and the TV and the leftover dream of radio-of-the-past are fighting for my attention.

Trump calls out Supreme Court justices who voted down his tariff “traitors to the U.S. Constitution.” Projecting much?

People are thinking, wondering, asking out loud: How do you fight the evil things being perpetrated by our own government? The people in Minneapolis showed us: Kindness. Helping out others. Other people across the country see it, and they’re inspired to do better… youtu.be/AeTIOLPZUtc?...

“…So some, it seems to me, elect their rulers for their crookedness. But I think a straight stick makes the best cane, and an upright man the best ruler.” - Henry David Thoreau, “An Address on the Succession of Forest Trees,” September 20, 1860

@chrislhayes.bsky.social The portion of your show tonight (Wednesday) where you and Jacob Soborof stood facing each other, having your private conversation, made me feel like I was being ignored. How weird to be treated like that when I’m supposedly the person you’re both trying to reach.

I read where the stethoscope was invented in 1816. For a long, long, long time - at least as long as I’ve been alive - stethoscopes have had a chest piece made of metal. And whenever someone puts one on my skin, it’s cold. Why can’t they make them out of plastic or other material that’s not cold?

And I’m gonna "like" this post every day so nobody forgets exactly who Pedophile Trump is and why the Epstein files have suddenly disappeared. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 #Justice4theVictims_NOW

Reminder

Trump going to Davos reminds one of a scene in “Hombre” where the bad guy goes up to the people his gang has surrounded and gives his demands. European leaders could learn from Paul Newman’s response. youtu.be/ts6nyz2X77A?...

What does it take to declare Donald Trump incompetent? Using his personal resentment over not getting a prize as an excuse for leading this country toward a war is not sufficient?

Trump thinks he’s the most powerful person in the world. Canada’s new economic agreement with China and Europe’s reaction to Trump’s Greenland threats show he is not. He is discovering that others can get along without America just fine.

Saw a movie last night that depicted the World War II Allies banding together to fight a country whose government was invading others and threatening to take even more. Today, we in America have a government using the same approach as Nazi Germany.

Does anybody remember when the NFL said that blacks did not have the intelligence to be first-string quarterbacks? Well, at the beginning of the 2025 season, 16 of the starting QB’s - that’s half - were black. Another dumb axiom bites the dust!

I find it amusing that Trump and his minions think they can threaten artists like musicians, actors, and comedians like they do lawyers. Artists don’t start out life thinking how can I make money. It’s not about making money or even pleasing others. It’s all about Art.

Good luck to Texas Longhorns’ Jack Endries. Endries announced that he’s going for the NFL draft this year. He showed his pass catching skills this season, especially against Texas A&M and Michigan. Prediction: he’ll go early in the draft and be great!

Watching a detective show called “Mannix”decades ago, and they included some folk singer named Neil Diamond in the story line. Hmm. Nice sound. youtu.be/ZyRXFd1Hv2o?...

How is it that there’s Virginia and WEST Virginia, and there’s North Dakota and South Dakota but no Dakota?

Newspaper headline about Britain’s King Charles stripping his brother of all royal titles and declaring that from now on he would go by his common name: “The Andrew Formerly Known as Prince.”

How about we tear down Mar-a-Lago and pave it over with a ballroom/parking lot?

Just saw a story on CNN about ICE impersonators. Think of the potential: a gang dressed as ICE agents, complete with masks, goes into a bank, robs it, and leaves with nobody able to track them. Sounds like a Die Hard flick, but it could really happen.

Lloyd Doggett has declined to run for re-election to the U.S. Congress after radical redistricting by Texas Republicans. Might he run for Senate as he did in 1984? Perhaps now is the time.

Just saw a new Ziprecruiter ad on TV that says they use AI to sift through people’s resumes. Why do companies think people are impressed by their use of AI? Most of the stuff I’ve seen about AI has been negative.

Funny how we assume that the places we see everyday will not change. Walking my dog Ida yesterday along the same route, around the same time (6:15 a.m.), we saw this brilliant sky in front of us.

Interesting visual at the White House yesterday: As Zelenskyy and Trump sit before the media, amid all the gold trappings that Trump adores, there’s that bust of Winston Churchill. Which of the two men has been compared frequently with that great British leader?
