For all those who didn't watch tonight, allow me to summarize: The liar lied again.

al green holding up a sign reading "black people aren't apes" at a president who has very recently depicted black people as apes is Appropriate in a way that the word "appropriate" colloquially doesn't capture. it is world-historically correct to do

These people are beyond evil and the only reason that it doesn’t always seem that way is that they’re also beyond stupid.

Umm, where are y'all at? This is simply amazing. WE👏🏿 DON'T👏🏿NEED👏🏿TO👏🏿BE👏🏿FRIENDS👏🏿WITH👏🏿NAZIS👏🏿TO👏🏿WIN👏🏿

And this guy is a moderate!

Dozens of FBI witness interviews from the investigation of Jeffrey Epstein appear to be missing from the files released by the Department of Justice last month, according to a CNN review – including interviews related to a woman who accused President Trump of sexually assaulting her decades ago.

Trump pivots to his Peace President bullshit and God bless whichever Democrat burst out laughing when he did his whole "I stopped eight wars!" schtick

You guys remember when Barack Obama lightly criticized a Supreme Court decision and they all acted like he’d vivisected Alito’s favorite puppy right in front of his eyes?

I’ve come to realize people think slurs are just words that hurt our feelings. No. Slurs, particularly the N-word, F-word, antisemitic terms etc. aren’t taboo because of that. It’s because historically when these terms are said they precede or pair with pitchforks, torches, lynchings & gas chambers.

Charlie Kirk was "martyred for his beliefs," Trump says, and asks Erika Kirk to stand On the left: her at the State of the Union On the right: her after Charlie Kirk's funeral gushing about how much merch they sold, yes really, here's a link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bi2...

So... does anyone care about this? That Michael B. Jordan's parents flew to London to see their son and they left the BAFTAs in tears? That he was repulsed? Still don't think an apology was owed? Some of you people are wretched fools.

Trump is going to fix healthcare by, and I will truly never get over how stupid this argument is: "I want to stop all payments to big insurance companies and instead give the money directly to the people so they can buy their own healthcare" (by giving the money to big insurance companies)

Trump says the usual shit about how they've stopped the Illegals but will always welcome legal immigrants, which is not something he usually specifies He says he got inflation down to 1.7 percent in 2025 which is not true

How do you stay after this?

Trump: “It’s the first year of my second term—should be my third term.” Violating constitutional rules and democratic norms is so commonplace for Trump it’s an unremarkable parenthetical that will barely get reaction.

Instead of the sotu, I will be posting facts about the minion canon

NPR, Politico and now CNN

pentagon trying to force Anthropic to make killbots and threading to crush them unless they comply is among the most dangerous things this admin is doing. HOWEVER it’s hilarious that Elon is practically begging to make antiwoke Skynet and the WH is like “no haha Claude is better”

This is what they've done.

This is what they've done.

All from Minnesota. Love to see it.

I hope that the people who wrote the "this is Trump's chance to change directions!" pieces have also written their "look at the new tone he took!" followup for tonight and the inevitable "well, looks like I fell for it again" piece for tomorrow morning

Analysis: Tonight's speech gives Donald Trump an opportunity to revitalize his failing presidency. To do so, he must not sound like Donald Trump, have the priorities of Donald Trump, or be Donald Trump. Joining us are three pundits with seven figure incomes who believe this might happen.

Trump's corrupt effort to prosecute Dems for warning military officials not to carry out illegal orders is collapsing. Sources tell @ryanjreilly.com that Jeanine Pirro has decided to shelve the case. The string of buffoonish failures here is remarkable: www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

I’m not getting into this again today, but the white man who yesterday yelled at me that I have no idea what it’s like to live with a condition for decades. You have no idea what it’s like to be Black and have that word hurled at you when you’re 5 years old and barely know what it means.

Precisely. The unique inflammatory nature of the word so awful WE DON’T EVEN SPELL IT OUT has gone ignored. The conversation so quickly moved to “he’s not a racist!” as if that’s the end of the conversation. As if the racisM can then be swept under the rug. I’m truly disgusted.

*cough*

And for the record, every Black person who spent the day yesterday imploring white people to understand that white folks are asking the sort of grace from Black people that is NEVER given to us? That shit probably shortened our lives. And I mean that literally. So thanks for that.

We don't even have the fucking right to get our fucking mail. Ridiculous.

Do I sound like a conspiracy nut if I say this is so mail ballots can be impeded?

As Sotomayor explains in dissent, the majority today denies damages under the Federal Tort Claims Act to Americans who are denied mail service even on the basis of flagrant racial discrimination. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

absurd.

What happens when reporting on the murder of a disabled person starts humanizing the killer instead of the victim? I asked Dateline’s @joshmankiewicz.bsky.social. His answer was blunt: If you’re explaining it away, you’ve already made a mistake. 🎧 B*tch, Listen •
New episode drops February 26.

So it reads to me as if Hegseth is bluffing with absolutely no cards and it's chud dominance politics versus genuine principal and the nerds have a straight flush.

congrats to the mens hockey team for letting a demented 80 year old sex criminal steal your shine and make himself the center of your accomplishment

Maybe Trump has a real talent for hiring the worst possible people, or maybe it's just that only the worst people want to work for Trump, but he sure has quite a collection of them in this admin.

#Norcross, #GA: 16y/o #ZylaVelazquez was last seen near her residence on Feb 18 in dark jeans, a white multicolored shirt & a multicolored scarf with short permed hair & a curl in the front of the scarf. Have you seen her? Please SHARE to #HelpUsFindZylaVelazquez #HelpUsFindUs

NEW FROM ME: The deportation plane stuck in the blizzard took off this morning after 31 hours, but not before exposing a much bigger problem with exceedingly long delays on ICE flights. With exclusive interviews and photos taken by local ICE flight watchers. gillianbrockell.ghost.io/ice-deportat...

As Trump addresses the nation tonight, the Epstein survivors will be in the room and showing that this movement will not stop until we get truth, transparency, and real accountability.

So very lucky to know @unlawfulentries.bsky.social and this is good advice whether you have a publicist or not!

Every time you get COVID-19, your risk increases for Long COVID, organ damage, disability, & more, & there’s no way to know which infection will be the one to cause it! Protect your lifelong health by protecting yourself from COVID-19. Learn more about Long COVID: www.cdc.gov/long-covid/a...

Trump is destroying this country! #TrumpsStateOfDelusion The worst thing he's doing is tearing innocent people away from their families & brutalizing them to corruptly enrich his billionaire buddies in the for-profit detention industry with his ICE & CBP savages! Including even indigenous people!

short of seppuku on live television there is no chance anything "turns around" tonight but congratulations to everyone who didn't write this

The other 22 hours are spent yelling at the television.

Following NPR's reporting, the @oversightdemocrats.bsky.social said Tuesday said they're investigating if DOJ "appears to have illegally withheld FBI interviews."

Remember, this guy then killed an MIT professor while they were stumbling to catch up

They're not sending their best.

3 of the 5 Quakertown high school students arrested for anti-ICE walkout are free--after 4 days! Not sure about 2 others, who are accused of felony assault against the police chief--when it was the chief who actually attacked them, putting one girl in a chokehold! www.phillyburbs.com/story/news/2...
