I love this interview. Where is Barbara Walter’s when you need her?

A government of shallow, glib sociopaths striving to get an "Attaboy" from other shallow, glib sociopaths.

RE: Massie loss in Kentucky. These people are so hardcore stupid, they’ll be penniless, starving, and eating each other’s pets for dinner, and still follow the will of their cult leader.

Music has always had the ability to speak to us, and for us, in a way nothing else can. That’s why, if you want to understand the last 250 years of American life, one of the best ways to do it is to listen to the music that defined them.

We’re deeply grateful to all of the Tennessee Indivisibles and everyone else across the state who showed up in defense of democracy. We the People — especially Black and Brown Americans — have opposed tyranny in the past. The road may be longer than we hoped, but we will win. Again.

Witnessing southern states rush to dismantle black voting power is truly truly some heartbreaking shit to behold

It’s staggering How swiftly states in the South can still move to stymie Black voters And how ready they were to do so

Trump Shares Recipe For Famous ‘Better Than Pedophilia’ Cake — theonion.com/trump-shares...

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said today the United States is being “humiliated by the Iranian leadership.” He also questioned the endgame, warning that entering a conflict without an exit plan risks repeating failures seen in Afghanistan and Iraq.

So, a man and his family are abducted by ICE. He is told that if he takes the fall in a fake crime his family can stay in the US. Makes sense to me.....

Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.

Virgina voters! THANK YOU 🥲🥹😍 Thank you Virgina Voters 🗳️🇺🇸

This smart dog knows about politics, he literally gives a shit.😆😆

In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.

You’ve heard of Stockholm Syndrome. Welcome to Budapest Envy.

Der Untergang…

Remember: The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich. It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class. You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense.

If Melania wants to come out and give us the dirt on Epstein and her husband, I promise to watch her movie.

Everyone please welcome CBS News Immigration Analyst Viktor Orban.

Weird war, where the winner gets skyrocketing gas prices, inflation and market crashes while the loser gets control over 20% of global oil flow.

May Victor Orbán simply be the first in a string of countries engaging in overdue housecleaning by kicking their authoritarian leaders to the curb.

💥🇭🇺🗳️ BREAKING: Péter Magyar says Viktor Orbán called to concede and congratulate him. Magyar will be Hungary’s next prime minister and, as it stands, is set to secure a 2/3 supermajority – enough to fully dismantle Orbán’s system. A 16-year chapter is over.

I’m incredibly obsessed with JD Vance sinking Victor Orban

Happy Sunday

Impossible to disagree with a single word that Ben Rhodes (Obama era NSC official) is saying here:

I can’t believe I woke up relieved today that we lost the war instead of mass murdering people

Can we stop talking about impeachment and start talking about imprisonment

Cartoonists are chronicling the madness of this moment in real time.

Brutal.

I'd really like to see leadership calling for impeachment and removal, regardless of whether they have the votes to get it done. Same way we called for marriage equality before we had the votes. A leader's job is to lead. If a genocidal threat isn't impeachable, then nothing is.
