The @60minutes.bsky.social powder puff interview that Lesley Stahl gave to reactionary representative Marjorie Taylor Green demonstrates that there need to be different tactics when the subject is a shameless relentless liar attempting reputational rehabilitation. Stahl wasn’t up to the task.

The real problem here is that overwhelmingly white male Republican senators confirmed him knowing that he was an ideologically dangerous crank. RFK is the center of this shyte storm.

Absolutely abominable. The Democratic leadership is afraid of frightening white “centrist”, racially triggered white voters that haven’t voted for Democrats in over 2 generations.

Again, your silence is so fucking vile and racist @housedemocrats.bsky.social What the hell is wrong with all of you?

Yes . The potential is certainly there. But Aftyn Behn ran as an unabashed progressive, which goes against Democratic leadership strategy. Behind Behn, on the platform where she gave a rousing concession “call to arms”, was a diverse core of supporters. Democrats should try and duplicate that.

Who else could be a Trump press secretary but a shameless liar like Karoline Leavitt, who has no professional reputation to maintain? She’ll exit to Fox after our national nightmare has ended.

It certainly was an unnecessary act of violence that should be condemned from all quarters. The shooter should certainly face justice and likely imprisonment. But why are no national Democrats questioning the political decision to deploy the National Guard in the first place?

How deep does racism need to be anchored in a country where a Charlie Brown character, Franklin, being seated on the same side of the table as Peppermint Patty, becomes a high executive level network issue?

The West Virginia National Guard should never have been in DC in the first place. If the state hadn't sent them, this wouldn't have happened. Let's frame this the way it should be framed.

Unfortunately, “violence has no place in America” is simply an empty platitude, completely oblivious to our shared history. “Violence…is American as cherry pie” H.Rap Brown

Yes. An unnecessary tragedy. All Americans should be united in condemning the violence. Just as you should be condemning the unnecessary political deployment of National Guard in the first place. Please sit your McKinsey consultant speaking ass down.

As I’m sure you know, the bailout was specifically for his white rural base, as he damaged them once again. Their allegiance to his support and reflection of their racial grievances binds them to him despite policies that hurt farmers and rural communities. The money helps smooth over bad feelings.

It’s not something that can be fixed in one cycle, although the Trump administration seems to be giving Democrats that opportunity. Democrats must remember that politics and policy happen downstream from culture. White rural republicans have been taught that Democrats are their enemy.

What in the actual fcuk? Trump is so nakedly self serving and favoring the wealthy and corporate campaign donors. His voters do not prioritize “affordability”, healthcare, women’s equality, etc. But Democrats refuse to understand that policy and politics happen downstream from (grievance) culture.

There are now more men with head coaching positions in the @wnba.com than women. This is inexcusable. As the success of the @wnba.com expands, the opportunities for women diminishes. Having an @nba.com pedigree doesn’t guarantee success as attested to by the fact of numerous men coaching failures.

I don’t know that I would call a man who was being victimized by a selective or possibly vindictive prosecution “lucky” simply because the attorneys acting on behalf of the DOJ are incompetent.

The @theweekendmsnow.bsky.social is almost like “The View”, except so much worse. Its anodyne structure renders anything remotely interesting out of bounds. It’s a terrible waste of time and opportunity.

@newyork-liberty.bsky.social have hired Chris DeMarco, Golden State Warriors assistant, as the new head coach. The absolute tone deafening action of hiring yet another man in the WNBA, demonstrates the disregard for basketball and equality opportunities. This is willful blindness.

At what point are Democrats going to realize (along with our quiescent corporate media) that a majority of Trump supporters are enjoying the pain and suffering of Trump’s (and their) enemies more than they value their own economic and social wellbeing?

How does the president, who is built like the Michelin Man, call anyone “piggy”? And how does a draft dodger call for the execution of 5 veterans of some accomplishments? Why don’t Democrats call him a draft dodger?

It never fails that when Trump hits some political turbulence, the administration tosses out some racist, white grievance red meat 🥩 to keep his base engaged. This time it’s the Coast Guard declassifying nooses and swastikas as hate symbols. It’s not economic anxiety or affordability. 🙄

JFC. The NFL has partnered wholeheartedly with legalized sports betting. It is inevitable that problems will follow. The fact that the NFL has abandoned CTE as an issue is disgraceful and our sport’s stenographers are complicit, with @espn.com leading the way.

Harvard fired Claudine Gay with trumped up charges of antisemitism. Larry Summers is embarrassed. 🙄

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social is meeting with Donald Trump to talk about New York City. I’m not sure what Mamdani thinks there is to gain from a meeting with a bad faith actor motivated by his grievances, bigotries and greed.

I suspect that they mistakenly think that these votes somehow will inoculate them against the racism and antisemitism in a Georgia statewide election. They will not.

Mourning Joe: I watch so you don’t have to. This morning on @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social gasbag haircut @joe-scarborough.bsky.social stated, incorrectly, that Democrats were also complicit in not calling out for the release of the Epstein files during Biden’s presidency. So intent on doing his …

… “both sides” soft shoe” that he neglected to mention that Ghislaine Maxwell’s trial and appeal were open until the Trump DOJ closed the case in July. Looking to Scarborough as a cogent source of news and/or political insight is like looking for a whale in a bathtub. It’s journalistic malpractice.

Murderer in the White House sounds like a book Stacy Abram’s could write instead of current headlines the @newyorktimeshaiku.bsky.social should be writing. ✍🏿 But there is indeed a murderer in the Trump White House, the crown prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Salman.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

@kaine.senate.gov should fuck all the way off, along with @schumer.senate.gov for participating in the orchestrated political theater of the cave-in. The Egregious Eight that were chosen, just happened not to be facing reelection, so as to survive the furious backlash that followed. Fuck them all.

“14 is old enough to make your own decisions!!” Is this real?

Texas A&M sure does love DEI and racial inclusion on Saturday afternoons.

The Republican congress has protected a 34 times convicted felon, a rapist, a grifter, a corrupt abuser of government power for personal gain, a cruel racist, misogynist, xenophobe and dementia riddled degenerate. Let’s see if they’ll extend that protection to a pedophile.

Lawrence (with help from Rhode Island Senator @whitehouse.senate.gov scolded those that were clamoring for Schumer’s abdication of his leadership role, suggesting that any expenditure of energy not expressly directed toward the decapitation of Trump and the Republican administration, was a…

… from the holdout/shutdown of the government. Schumer voted “no” to end the shutdown but lots of progressives are calling for him to resign his leadership position. Lawrence felt responsible to explain how Schumer had done the right thing and was not at fault for the Democratic cave.

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com is an overwhelmingly reliable, thoughtful and progressive voice, (he thinks “progressive” is a cop out, he prefers socialist), on matters of politics. However he seems to be more concerned with @chuckschumer.com not getting the blame for the defections of 8 senators…

Rural white farmers voted overwhelmingly for Donald Trump as attested to on the @60minutes.bsky.social segment. Destroyed many family farms his first term with an unnecessary trade war. And is doing the same in his second term. In addition, he’s giving 40B dollars to their competitor, Argentina.
