I don't believe inflation pushed voters from Harris to Trump, who never had any plan. It was misogynoir against a Black woman.

if only there had been a movement and momentum several years ago to downsize police budgets, clear out the white supremacists and de-militarize local law enforcement

‼️ 1418 days of the full-scale Russian attack on Ukraine. That's how long the war lasted for the USSR within the Second World War - under the banner of "anti-Nazism". Now Russia itself found itself in the role of a Nazi state - but against Ukraine.

Had to block one of my favourite creators today cause they use AI to create a video and were like “everything uses AI these days” There’s a difference between assistive AI and Gen AI… we’re not complaining about assistive technology but GENERATIVE AI And you not knowing the difference… BLOCKED

What striking is nowhere does Jeffries criticize the deal with oil companies, just as he almost never criticizes any corporate interests anywhere. He talks endlessly about "affordability" while never criticizing the corporations raising prices.

AOC: “I understand that VP Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, & I do not — That is a fundamental difference between VP Vance & I — I do not believe the American people should be assassinated in the street”

BREAKING NEWS: We are opening a formal investigation into the shooting involving federal agents in Portland today. Our office will take every step necessary to ensure the rights and security of Oregonians are protected. #orpol #breakingnews

7 Democrats just voted today to confirm a Trump judicial nominee who refused to say what happened on January 6 or answer who won the 2020 election: Durbin Hassan Kaine King Klobuchar Shaheen Welch

What a joke.

Conway: This man is violating his oath in myriad ways each and every day. Impeachment is not an option. It is mandatory. It is required. It is morally, constitutionally, and legally obligated.

Sad to see my two "democrat" senators fell in line with trump once again.

Democrats will continue to vote for Republican judges (like this guy, who refused to say who won the 2020 election) until Democrats are punished for voting for Republican judges

This is a really good point

Rep. Suozzi Confronts Deplorable Jan 6 Rioters, Minneapolis Mayor Tells ICE To “Get The F**k Out,” and Rep. Kelly Leads Charge To Impeach Kristi Noem

I'm afraid this is true.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social Maybe if you had covered the last woman shot and killed Or given daily coverage to the violence Covered when they shot priests, protesters, and reporters We would be elsewhere #AbolishIce #Inners

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

🚨 The White House is now actively covering up a murder.

This is literally what they do whenever a Black person is killed by police. No matter how solid the evidence is, they will keep pushing that lie, not just to poison the conversation and make sure the killer walks free, but to reassert the political idea that these people deserve to be killed.

Whether it’s Democrats putting their pronouns in email signatures or Republicans shooting and killing unarmed drivers, both sides have taken actions that the other side finds threatening.

This week in the Trump admin: Hegseth started an illegal war for oil in Venezuela. Stephen Miller threatened to take over Greenland. RFK Jr. slashed childhood vaccine recs. ICE shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis. What will it take for Republicans to stand up to this?

🎯

I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy. She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

Google the video & see for yourself. This is not law enforcement. This is murder. Sickening.

After being stranded for 6 days at Amsterdam airport (AMS) by endless flight cancelations, our relative finally made it home to Norway -- by taking a train to Hamburg, then flying home via Copenhagen. Her luggage is nowhere to be found in the KLM chaos.

So, all it took to destroy the government was a complicit SCOTUS, a feckless and spineless Congress, and a felon.

Everyone should watch Senator Mark Kelly's brutal video response to the corrupt Trump/Hegseth effort to punish him. As @leahlitman.bsky.social says on the pod: "They are saying it is illegal to encourage people to follow the law." Leah explains this all brilliantly: newrepublic.com/article/2049...

“The top donor to the Republican Party is running a company making sexual deepfakes, even of children.” Is a 100% accurate message that leaders should be repeating.

I wish this weren't true, but we now have take his threats about Greenland more seriously, and start to talk about the world-changing mistake if he chose to go to war with Europe - which would essentially guarantee the rest of this century is China's.

if you tried to do this in the us, you'd have a billion dollar conservative moms group lobbying against it 12 hours later and credulous news articles taking their claims seriously in 24 bsky.app/profile/davi...

See a fox, post a fox.

The media is very much responsible for where we are today as a nation.

Trump has made the GOP repudiate everything they claim to stand for.

Much of the frustration from Democratic voters (particularly on this website) at their elected officials is that these Democratic officials aren't expressing the fear and anger the voters clearly have. We want more of them to be audibly upset and angry at what's happening to our country.

Here's all 8 pages of CO2 Newsletter Vol 1 no 1 (Oct 1979) Geologist William N. Barbat published the Newsletter for 3 years (18 issues). They are incredible - detailed, precise and, ultimately, heart-breaking because they reveal how much was known, how many warnings were ignored. 1/8

Look you guys need to stop talking about whether or not Venezuela is happening “to get the oil”. You just have to stop. He said it. He keeps saying it. It’s for the oil. Now whether or not that oil is viable or profitable is beside the point. He doesn’t care. He’s doing this for the oil.

I think the Greenland threat is a troll. I think. But it would sure be nice for some senators and GOP house members to speak up now and make it clear that an attack on a nato ally would lead to removal from office

YOU ARE LITERALLY THE GUY RESPONSIBLE FOR CONFIRMING THE PERSON IN CHARGE OF THIS!!!!!!

If you didn't vote for Kamala STFU about the Dems needing to do something. You had a chance to give them power.

Hakeem Jeffries talking in inarticulate circles on the Last Word tonight clearly demonstrates the need for new Dem leadership. We have the bench strength in the party to do so much better. We need strong messaging, a compelling plan and leaders able to inspire.

When I roll over at night the dog rearranges herself to rest that long nose against the back of my neck, making soft nighttime sounds.

the 6% is the WaPo editorial board

Trump did it because of drugs, except Trump pardoned drug traffickers. Trump did it because of authoritarianism, except Trump loves most authoritarians. He did it for regime change, except they left most of the regime in place. Was it simply dementia?

Every single interview I see with Trump officials and every single insiders account makes it clear that these guys have no idea what the fuck they are doing and have no concept of how this could easily go to hell.
