HUGE: With the inaugurations of Governors Abigail Spanberger and Mikie Sherrill, Democrats now hold 24 governor’s mansions nationwide, up from 18 held ten years ago. This also marks the most Democratic women serving as governors at any time in our nation’s history.

so glad you cracked the fucking case, professor

McGovern: Well, he said a lot of crazy shit today. I think it’s time to take the keys away from grandpa. He doesn’t seem like he’s all there.

This effort to curry favor by acting like an insult comic will be forgotten within the Trump administration in a day, but will make headlines and be remembered for decades in the countries being insulted.

Wrong. There’s ~75 million of us who actually did something to stop him. There’s ~77 million who actively voted for him. There’s another ~90 million who could have helped stop him & didn’t bother.

I hate this smug fuck

An especially despicable, small man in an administration full of despicable, small men.

Jones to Hannity: Shame on you. Your children will be ashamed of where you stand. I’m going to pray for you. Tell Trump to put down the pardon pen and pick up a mirror if he wants to go after criminals.

Me: We should watch Don’t Look Up. You never saw it. Son: No it’s depressing Me: No it was depressing during the pandemic when we all thought we were gonna die and no one took it seriously. Now we wish a comet was gonna kill us over the probability that we die fighting fascism. So now it’s funny.

Trump, and his supporters and apologists, are shitty people with shitty values from a shitty culture. Not enough bad things can happen to them.

Black women republicans. Latino ICE agents. Usha Vance having sex with JD Vance ON PURPOSE. We live in wild times. Stay safe out there, y’all.

I had to google because I was thrown by “as a Black woman” and, as it turns out, Lisa Demuth is a black woman the Karen haircut to boot!! 💀💀💀💀

Federal agents are pulling over off duty cops based on the color of their skin. This is not a serious operation to enforce immigration law. It’s a performative show of force and it’s gotten way out of hand.

🚨 BREAKING — Maryland’s Redistricting Advisory Commission has recommended a new 8-0 congressional map and sent it to Wes Moore.

Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty on Trump suggesting ICE made a "mistake" in killing Renee Good: "Okay, if you're saying ICE made a mistake when they shot and killed Renee Good, why didn't you have an investigation? Why don't you release the evidence so we can actually investigate?"

The guy was done. Broke. Bankrupt. Unfinanceable. Then he was done again. A barker. Clown. Parlor joke. Thanks a lot, Mark Burnett. Thanks a lot, Deutsche Bank.

This is Minneapolis: I’m at a major healthcare clinic (just here for a friend) and overheard the front desk staff mention they’ve had 97 missed appointments today. People aren’t getting medical care bc they’re afraid to leave home.

Such an iconic day! On this day in 2009, Barack Obama was inaugurated and became the 1st Black President of the United States. 🇺🇸

A powerful paragraph: Tom Nichols @radiofreetom.bsky.social

“.. You asked us to go. We went,” said Company Sgt. Maj. Bager, the Danish soldier who served in Iraq and Afghanistan. You asked us “to send airplanes, we sent airplanes.” Denmark, he said, “never said no.” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2026/01/18/w...

FWIW, the one and only time Article 5 has formally been invoked was following 9/11 -- by NATO and on behalf of the United States, without it having to make any request.

interesting that a single face-to-face contact turned this nonvoter into a voter

A year ago today, 1500+ terrorists were pardoned for their domestic attack at the Capitol.

Brooklyn Park police chief Mark Bruley: "We're hearing people being stopped with no cause & being demanded to show paperwork to determine if they're here legally. We started hearing from our police officers the same complaints. Every one of these individuals is a person of color... it has to stop"

I've still never heard an actual person in real life use the word "falsehoods" and I've yet to hear a coherent explanation for why the media refuses to use the word "lies."

Mamdani: I am in support of abolishing ICE… I'm tired of waking up every day and seeing a new image of someone being dragged out of a car, dragged out of their home, dragged out of their life.

Scott, people are trying to buy 1 house — to live in. Could the Trump Admin be any more out of touch?
