He’s not even in office anymore and he’s still more presidential than the man who is.

Good one 🤣

Good thing that isn’t happening with capitalism.

Don't want to speak ill of the dead, so getting this Mitch McConnell take out now. He saw Trump with complete clarity, as a danger to America, but protected him anyway. Perhaps more than anyone, he had the power to end Trumpism, but chose party over country. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/jan-6-and-...

It’s midnight and 80 degrees!

Clarence Thomas says the 14th Amendment should be read narrowly because it was written for formerly enslaved people. By that logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets, not AR-15s. Funny how that kind of originalism only shows up when it's convenient.

Leonard Leo is a lawyer, but he's never argued a case in court. He's never held elected office. But for years he rebuilt the American legal system, resulting in the Supreme Court's right-wing supermajority. (Published Oct. 2023)

Texas 22nd district

Since Republicans so gleefully did this during Biden administration post covid…

“If you zoom in on the guitarist’s sunglasses you can see a crowd of less than a dozen people… the organizers appear to have recently deleted that image.” 😬 🕶️

The eagle with 11 stars was used by the Confederacy (representing the 11 states that seceded from the Union.) Here's another example.

Since the start of President Trump’s second term, The New York Times has been documenting examples of moves by members of Mr. Trump’s family or the families of top aides to profit off of Trump administration policy actions. Today we take another look.

Jared Kushner wants Albania's protected wetlands. The government obliged. Protesters said no. 29 days later, they're still saying no — with flamingo cutouts and flags, in the streets, every single night. Europe is watching. Is anyone else?

The New York Times has new reporting about a U.S. mining deal struck by President Trump that could indirectly put money into the pockets of his family. Former U.S. Under Secretary of State @rickstengel.bsky.social joins Alex Witt to discuss this report, and more. www.ms.now/weekends-wit...

Interesting take. But Texas is 2nd in banned books in US. I’m less inclined to be “understanding” of the BOE required reading of Bible passages as English literature

he is not wrong

“If we lose, people might investigate us" is a helluva campaign pitch for "innocent" politicians.

Thanks to WSJ, this story is about to get bigger 👏 I hadn’t heard about it until reading this.

One year ago.

This week someone targeted my family for harm with a false report. We’re physically OK, but that doesn’t mean we weren’t harmed. I am beyond furious. Whatever your politics, this is awful, wrong, and can never become normal.

NEW: I explain the details of the order requiring Acting AG, Todd Blanche, to produce by July 2nd specific unredacted documents from the Epstein Files, incl. FBI interview notes of a woman who alleges sexual & physical abuse by Felon Trump when she was just 13 years old. youtu.be/xfR0hDLsTm8?...

Pete Hegseth should be removed immediately.

Massie: "I think it's ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, and the White House, and we're yelling 'election fraud'? I mean, we won all the damn elections."

If Dr. Phelan cannot be honest about Trump's economy, the American people cannot trust him to help fix it.

Vance dismisses Watergate scandal, says ‘deep state’ went after Nixon - The Washington Post. Vance seems remarkably ignorant of history. Republicans ended Nixon’s presidency and they have never before been called the “deep state.”

Having everything in “the cloud” sucks. When internet is out, we’re pretty much screwed. Thanks #xfinity. 🤬

@11thhourmsnow.bsky.social Thank you Ali for asking tough questions of Chevalier tonight. She was on CNN earlier tonight and they served up softballs. 😳

BREAKING: New Mexico's governor calls for criminal probe after AP report that DEA let staggering number of fentanyl pills hit street.

Four years ago today, the Supreme Court took away a right women had for 50 years. Since then we’ve watched women denied care, doctors second-guessing themselves, and families put through hell. None of it had to happen. We’re not going back. www.ms.now/opinion/trum...

Sen. Peters: "Yes or no, if a state refuses to turn their absentee voter list over to the federal government, will the Postal Service still mail their ballots under this proposed rule?" Postmaster General David Steiner: "Under our proposed regulation, no."

Today marks four years since the Supreme Court erased the constitutional right to abortion—a right Americans relied on for nearly five decades. But the fight is not over. I, along with my Democratic colleagues, will continue to fight against policies that put women’s health & autonomy at risk.

When the Court overturned Roe, one thought kept running through my mind: Women of this generation were about to lose rights that previous generations had fought to secure.

I will not let Republicans off the hook for the pain they have caused and the chaos they have unleashed by overturning Roe v. Wade.   You voted to confirm Trump’s SCOTUS nominees? You own this chaos and suffering.

Trump has turned the White House into a 24/7 corruption operation. This is a national crisis. Trump thinks the public will stop paying attention. So I went to the Senate floor to call his bluff. I told the ENTIRE STORY of his 500 days of corruption. 1/ Here it is - in one🧵

RFK Jr. says that HPV vaccine is “dangerous and defective”. A new study from England shows that HPV vaccines have reduced deaths from cervical cancer to ZERO for women aged 20-24. Significant reductions in older age groups were observed as well, though the latter have lower vaccination coverage.
