This is to show they don't care about law or the Constitution: It's not only OK for Homan to have taken a $50k bribe. He was *entitled* to it 'cuz he's such a strong, loyal supporter. and the operative statement by Megyn Kelly: "WE DON'T CARE." Newsom worries abuot '28, but what about '26?! 🤔

Newsom: "I fear that we will not have an election in 2028 -- I really mean that in the core of my soul -- unless we wake up to the code red, what's happening in this country, and we wake up soberly to how serious this moment is."

I’m less worried about not having an election at all (even autocratic states have bogus show elections) than about having one so compromised the results are meaningless. Either way, I don’t know anyone could be paying attention and NOT harbor that fear.

Hillary Clinton on the midterms: "When they eliminated the enhanced premium tax credit for the ACA, that hits very soon, in the next 30-60 days. Healthcare costs for million of Americans are going up 75% ... so reality is actually gonna bite ... 'okay, who is in charge now?'"

Hillary Clinton: "Your economic standing, your wellbeing is directly connected to the abuse of power. How do you hold a president who's abusing power, raising costs, imposing tariffs, raising healthcare costs, how do you hold that president accountable in a midterm? You vote against his party"

Hillary Clinton: "We have institutions and the rule of law for a reason ... and when the Congress sets such a bad example -- just lining up and saluting -- we need voices on the conservative side to say, 'No. You can't get away with this.' Look at what they are doing in the Caribbean ... "

Schumer: "We're asking something very simple -- for the president to sit down and talk with us. He's not the king. He can't just dictate what happens. He said he doesn't need Democrats. Well, then he doesn't know how to count."

Maria Bartiromo: "And then the sabotage efforts! Him going on the escalator and the escalator stops, the teleprompter going down. What went on yesterday at the UN General Assembly, congressman?"

Will this be the moment that wakes people up?

New in PN: The Trump Murder Policy "Trump has claimed Venezuelan boats are being attacked because they’re smuggling drugs, but his evidence doesn’t amount to much more than 'trust me, bro.'"

The headlines should be, but won't be: "Trump embarrasses himself and the US in incoherent, rambling, shameful speech at the UN"

Summary of Trump’s speech to the UN today: 1. Your countries all suck. 2. None of you know what you are doing. 3. The US is better at everything. 4. All because of me. 5. I’m right about everything. 6. You should listen to me & do what I say. 7. And give me lots of awards.

Worst UN speech ever. Toxic, delusional, anti science & anti migration and immigration. Just brutal, and the planet looks at the US and says how can anyone with a brain or a spine vote/support this person?

Wrote this earlier in the week for ⁦‪@thebulwark but it was posted right before the President’s UN speech. Coincidence? www.thebulwark.com/p/no-trump-h...

Trump’s UN speech in 22 seconds: “I’ve been right about everything… I’m really good at this stuff… your countries are going to hell… I have the highest poll numbers I’ve ever had (not true)…”

This is not the speech anyone who watched Trump at the UN actually saw….

Trump literally uses his UN Speech to slam the UN for not hiring him years ago to do renovations of the UN. I'm serious. This is the moron pretending to be President

Zelenskyy listening to Trump's speech at UN. We are all a little bit Zelenskyy 😁

Just watched Trump's UN speech in its entirety. My God.

Trump making Gadaffi's UN speech look normal.

Trump's UN speech was an embarrassing shitshow that brought disgrace upon the United States. Congrats, America.

Thoughts on Trump’s lack of sympathy for a fellow president…👇 And GO!

This ought to be engraved somewhere.

Disney is LYING about the reason for pulling Kimmel. They do NOT GET MY MONEY!

It took them less than a week to cave to public pressure about Kimmel.

Kimmel should tell them to fuck themselves.

💯! Too late! That cancelled monthly Disney plus subscription is going to PBS now. ABC has shown they'll bend to this fascist regime at the drop of a hat. Was never about Kimmel specifically for me.

Governor Gavin Newsom has signed the nation’s first bill banning officers from wearing masks. Now let’s work to bring this change nationwide, reach out to your governors and help unmask ICE!

The EPA has ordered scientists in at least one of its research offices to immediately pause almost all efforts to publish research. The studies will now be subject to a new review process. 
That decision — to reevaluate all manuscripts — was made by Trump political appointees.

Hint: It is not the Democrats.

Remember that MLK said America suffers not just from "the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people."

Priorities.

This is incredible. h/t: @jessedamiani.bsky.social

Now that I know Trump doesn’t want people talking about his involvement with Jeffery Epstein — I’m going to be talking about it forever and ever and ever.

I send you an abundance of positivity. May you have good health and happiness — all the days of your life.🪶✨

Regurgitating Nazi memorabilia. Villainizing immigrants and the LGBTQ community. Installing concentration camps. What’s next? Gas chambers?

When President Clinton banned assault rifles in 1994, mass shootings dropped by 43%. After Republicans let the ban expire in 2004, they increased by 243% — please don’t tell me bans don’t work, because I don’t want to hear it.

'Tom Homan should be in jail': Onlookers pounce on Trump official's 'corrupt' bribe scheme www.rawstory.com/tom-homan-ja...

Jimmy Kimmel and other late-night comedians have certainly said things about me that I found offensive, even outrageous. It never crossed my mind to call up the networks and say, "Hey, get rid of this guy." Because that's not how America works. play.prx.org/listen?ge=pr...

Why does it take a BRITISH newspaper to break a story like this? Where the hell is the American media? 🤨

😕 💵

Or as @ezraklein.bsky.social would call it, "doing politics the right way."

Crockett: "I'm gonna honor someone who decided they were going to proclaim I was involved in the 'great white replacement'? Yeah, I'm not honoring that ... it's unfortunate more of my colleagues even on my side couldn't see the amount of harm this man was attempting to inflict upon our communities"

Trump: "When 97% of the stories are bad about a person, that's no longer free speech."
