A lot more elected Dems should be saying this, repeatedly.

But if they did do that, it would absolutely be a bigger scandal than, say, a news outlet reporting on the planted fake. They can't make it all go away, as was the case with the CBS/Rather error.

Nothing Trump would love more than to "Dan Rather" Rachel Maddow.

I'm assuming this is a clever, elaborate forgery until it's proven otherwise. But if it's proven otherwise ... oh, man.

CBS paid the president of the United States millions in bribe money and now they censor news reports so it does not annoy him. I don’t know how much plainer we can put this.

I don't think I'll love the answer, but we're going to have to ask ourselves what matters more: watching the NFL or maintaining a free, democratic society. The league's top two TV partners -- Murdoch and Ellison -- are clearly hostile to the latter.

Wow.

People are rightly disgusted by this speech, but it’s a measure of fascism’s normalization that many see this as more of the awful same rather than what I think most of us who’ve been reporting this beat hear it as: a significant calculated escalation. Full alert stuff.

Gabbo, with the emphasis firmly on the first syllable.

Nazi freaks.

She's a special level of evil.

Lutnick and Giuliani could have spent the last 24 years as national icons, giving speeches, making some money, and forging legacies that largely would've papered over their pre-9/11 careers. Instead, they opted for total self-debasement.

These are the people who are willing to go on the record. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/u...

How many recordings did people need to determine that his Georgia behavior was outrageous and disqualifying?

I'm Cassandra, and I approve this message.

Yeah man. There's literally an audio recording of the man telling the GA officials to find votes and he's sitting in the Oval Office right now. Absolutely nothing happened to him.

I'm totally on board with Russia being banned from international sports. Same thing should apply to Israel. And if this buffoon invades Venezuela, the IOC should immediately kick the U.S. out of the Winter Olympics.

All of this. How you respond to this sort of blatant scapegoating is so telling.

Her dad took money to do an ad for a Boston bar after he got a liver transplant, so the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Real pieces of work, they are.

Perhaps the least credible thing I've ever read is Bob Kraft's anecdote about how, after his wife died, Trump was the steadfast friend who was always there for him. It's impossible to believe that the man has ever had a moment of compassion, grace, selflessness, or decency.

This is Trump celebrating the murder of Rob Reiner. That's what it is. That's what we should call it. People who said this sort of thing about Charlie Kirk were fired, arrested and banned from the US.

People support him because he reflects their values and character. He reflects their souls.

The only two U.S. national teams that have truly captured the country's hearts and attention were 1980 hockey and the Women's World Cup winners of '99 and '15. (By '19, the "they're too divisive!" complaints had already begun.) The more you think about that, the worse you should probably feel.

This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him. I don’t know how else to say it…

This is all true, but I also can't help but read the end of Miller's screed in the voice of Fred Willard saying, "And to think that in some countries, these dogs are eaten."

This is a nakedly thuggish and corrupt administration. People who support it should be treated as corrupt thugs.

I would like to apologize to Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries. You are not, in fact, the Absolute Worst at This Sort of Thing.

A lot of subscription money will be heading to the first major news outlet that ditches the euphemisms and consistently uses the proper terms to describe these people. Just sayin'.

The Trump administration is literally the nanny state that conservatives spent decades complaining about. They want to tell you what you should wear on a flight, how many cookies you should eat, who you can watch on late night TV, etc. No Democrat has ever been this much of a busybody fussbudget.

Now is the time on "Sprockets" when we dance!

Also, it's unconscionable that Democrats don't have a shadow CDC/NIH in place, screaming from the rooftops about how bad of an idea this is.

I mean, this is an execution

A friendly reminder that the results of the draw will be available online moments after it happens. No one needs to watch any of that nonsense live!

the entire point of what they're doing now is try to make you forget that the first strike and in fact all strikes on boats with alleged drug traffickers on them ARE ILLEGAL IN THE FIRST PLACE

I hope James Bennet's bare foot repeatedly meets the business end of a Lego.

It’s just open white supremacy at this point.

this is not ok. this stuff can never be normal. Don't ever get desensitized to this kind of hate.

He shouldn’t just be pushed out as the House Democrats’ leader; he needs to be primaried out of his seat entirely. Just a complete waste of a deep blue seat.

This guy would routinely punt on third down "just in case there's a bad snap." Totally useless.

It's true. What's worse, every autocrat hosting a future World Cup is going to expect the same treatment. Infantino's gonna personally torture a dissident on stage at the 2034 draw in Riyadh.

Huh.

Ok, journalists, can we as an industry talk frankly about the administration’s white nationalism agenda now? I mean everyone other than me?

I know it's too easy to grow numb to the constant flood of bigotry that comes out of his mouth but it does seem morally important you don't allow yourself or anyone else to become desensitized to this vile racism as a normal part of our politics

Donald Trump incited an insurrection on J6. He should never have been able to run for public office again. What a failure of justice to not hold this man accountable.

Nobody hates America more than these freaks

Gutter racism.

Again, every elected Democrat needs to put out a video stating exactly what Kelly and the others said. If ever there were a line to draw in the sand, it’s here. The military is not the president’s Praetorian Guard.
