Gov. Wes Moore (D-MD) says he was uninvited from a bipartisan White House dinner for governors "As the nation’s only Black governor, I can’t ignore that being singled out for exclusion from this bipartisan tradition carries an added weight — whether that was the intent or not"

Bezos: "Each and every day our readers give us a roadmap to success. The data tells us what is valuable and where to focus." The most-read story on the WaPo website was written by a team Bezos' leadership just sent to the unemployment line.

In light of Trump’s post yesterday, some history: “On Memorial Day 1927, 1,000 white-robed Klansmen marched through the Jamaica neighborhood, eventually spurring an all-out brawl in which seven men were arrested. One of those arrested was Fred Trump.” www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix...

Hey so trumprx actually went live and it's got the same cost savings as goodrx. Exactly the same. However it's worse because it doesn't include generics. Generic protonix is about $6. This literally does nothing. What a joke.

This overt racism has absolutely no place in our country, let alone from our president to millions of his followers. Donald Trump’s bigoted depiction of Barack and Michelle Obama is unacceptable and should’ve been wildly condemned.

Everyone in the White House involved in any way with that vile, sickening racist Trump post must be fired immediately: everyone in the communications department, everyone in the press office, every deputy chief of staff, everyone involved up and down the line. Not one more tax dollar for this filth.

If you hear someone saying that they hope lawyers are ready to go to court to protect free and fair elections, I suggest you let them know that my law firm is already litigating more than 80 voting and election cases in 40 states.

If the remaining elements of the White Press Corps who aren't MAGA lapdogs have any credibility, they will push Leavitt to explain why staffers have access to the President's social media account in the middle of the night and have the ability to post to it. Talk about a national security risk.

The Billionaires Bill worked! Billionaires made over $1.5 trillion dollars last year; more than 20% richer!! The looting and polluting continues…

The House chamber was mostly empty. I’m unsure how many will ultimately hear it. But I spoke today to sound an alarm for our nation. To alert the country of the wholesale corruption engulfing our government & the work we must do end it. I hope my fellow Americans will listen.

always bears repeating that this is NOT a financial decision. jeff bezos is worth over 250 billion dollars. he can afford to lose many millions and never even notice it. this is, at its core, a political and personal decision by bezos to destroy the post

What if every newspaper editorial board in the country coordinated on a same-day statement calling for his immediate resignation? He's not going to resign, but it'll make it clear to the rest of the country that this is a lot more serious than many of them perceive it to be.

Well, my fellow Maine voters. Here is Susan Collins today paying tribute to her boss while holding her MAGA hat.

I truly do not understand why members of the press continue this charade of doing pressers with him. And how every member of the press doesn't walk out after that. Like - the government needs the news to govern. There's power - you can withhold attention

I know we’ve gotten used to it, but this type of behavior is disgusting and people should speak up about it

It really bums me out that Klobuchar, who was instrumental in normalizing Trump as just another political adversary, is almost certainly going to be the next governor of Minnesota, a state currently paying a severe price for that normalization of fascism.

Tomorrow, the Oversight Committee will hear testimony from family members of Renee Good. We'll be streaming across Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube at 3:00 PM EST.

Even if you don't have time to read all 83 pages of Judge Reyes's opinion barring the Trump administration from rescinding Temporary Protected Status for 350,000+ Haitians, please at least check out the four-page introduction. It's a tour de force: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

If you campaigned for the presidency on a promise to destroy these assholes, you would win a landslide the size of FDR in 1936, when he campaigned on a promise to destroy these assholes.

New Trump admin slogan just dropped

Believe your own eyes. Nothing about this is normal. Trump and his goon squad are trying to undermine a fundamental principle of our democracy: free and fair elections.

Trump could not be more explicit about his intention to rig elections this year and in 2028

Neither Trump nor the GOP in congress have this power, & the only way they do this is if we decline to stand up for our rights. He's had a string of electoral defeats & rightfully fears the midterms. His outbursts are real threats, but they come from weakness. Tough shit, he's going down. No Kings.

And just like that, it’s out of the news. Go look at every major news outlet this morning and tell me if you see this story. The most staggering corruption in U.S. history and poof. I can’t find it in news or opinion in any. Maybe we should check which email server they used for the bribe.

Important @crampell.bsky.social piece on Kevin Warsh's track record. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/01/o...

Democrats in Congress need to immediately appoint an adhoc bicameral working group to organize civil society and the legal community to stop Trump's ongoing desecration of our national monuments and the Capital. This has gone too far. Congress must step up and fight.

It’s 2026. There is a measles outbreak in the prison for babies

MAGA people lining up wanting the taxpayers to give them money. Trump wants $10 billion. Lindsey wants $1 million. J6ers want money. Farmers want money. Of course CEOs want their contracts, subsidies & tariff waivers. It’s griftapalooza at taxpayer expense for the gangsters.

Trump's awful post about Alex Pretti am confirms this point -- he's not sorry, he's not pivoting, and he'll use the same playbook as ever to survive yet another scandal that would have destroyed any other politician my new column: www.newyorker.com/news/letter-...

How incredibly fitting that the Trump administration is actually the one at fault of the fraud scandal that Trump has been weaponizing against Tim Walz and against the Somali community www.huffpost.com/entry/minnes...

I really urge you to not just shake your head at the headline of this but to read each word, to imagine each step these kids took, to sit with the terrible dilemma of the mother, to imagine the principal driving toward Whipple.

"'We lost all trust,' a current ICE official added. 'I’m not sure I can see how we exist three years from now.'” If an ICE official can see there being a world without ICE, there's no reason any of us shouldn't be able to do the same thing. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

There really seems to be a lot of kayfabe happening right now. Trump is pretending to de-escalate to placate Dems so they don't demand reform, and Dems are making up fake reforms so they can pretend like they made changes while they vote to fund DHS.

Important. There has not been a deescalation.

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social I AM BEGGING YOU: Please lead a vote of no-confidence in Schumer as Minority Leader. It's a closed door, secret ballot conference vote. We cannot let this man, who is not made for this moment, be our downfall. He's not a bad man, he's just not up to History's moment.

They would not follow a single one of these even if you got them into law, and on their own none would be meaningfully enforceable through litigation.

Pro tip for any Hill journos, the Speaker can approve 24hr protection for Members who are under heightened threat. Omar used to have this, but Mike Johnson took it away. You should ask him about that

This needs to happen at the very least
