The Pope’s social media team is second only to Gavin Newsom’s.

Understand this: Democratic socialism is simply people-centered government. Ask a Scandinavian.

It’s never too late. Actually, it’s plenty late.

Now the retired/fired Generals should step up and publicly defend the Dems who called for the military to respect the Constitution and the Military Code of Justice.

How many Republican senators are up for reelection in 2026? Asking for an Epstein Senate vote counter.

Absolutely. How else to love thy neighbor without question.

As ACT UP proclaimed during the tragic AIDS epidemic: SILENCE = DEATH That now applies EVERYWHERE in this dangerous and pivotal moment. Always use your OUTSIDE voice in resisting.

Maybe it’s time for a Daniel Ellsberg/Pentagon Papers moment to leak the Epstein Files and Jack Smith’s case against Trump.

Without a doubt. More women in executive positions means a far better society.

Day of the Dead, 11/01/2025: SNAP benefits disappear. 12% of Americans suffer. Hunger Games. Hunger Rules.

The demolition of the People’s White House’s East Wing is a devastating metaphor for Trump’s bulldozing of our democracy. Time to stand in front of the bulldozers.

This ordinary woman made THE BEST vid about why it’s important to show ppl how we feel about our government. Share it around. There are a few in your circle who are too quiet. #NoKings

The morning @theweekendmsnbc.bsky.social show with Eugene, Jacky, and Jonathan, offers a way forward in how hard news and vital interviews are wrapped in an atmosphere of collegiality and good humor. There is an everpresent undercurrent of resilient optimism that both informs and refreshes.

Border Czar Tom Homan Accepted $50,000 Bribe

Nicolle Wallace, Matthew Dowd has been a regular contributor on Deadline: White House. It’s up to you to stand up for Matthew and bring him back on. Not to do so will undermine your long demonstrated integrity that we viewers have come to rely on. You have a public power that your bosses don’t have.

If the RFK Jr hearing debacle reveals anything, it’s that we IMMEDIATELY require a scientist/doctor-led shadow HHS Department to directly, publicly target and oppose the quack policies and rabidly dangerous misinformation that RFK Jr is promoting. We need a HEALTH WAR ROOM to protect the public.

I salute @alivelshi for his fire-breathing commentary this Saturday morning (8/30/25) on the hapless state of institutional Democratic leadership. No one states the case more thoroughly, fearlessly naming the cowardly and uplifting those who are the point of the spear against Trumpian fascism.

We need a formal “shadow government” in place to counter/ repudiate every Trump agency. states should “adopt and re-house,” critical functions (e.g., vaccine research of agencies of national importance under lethal attack such as the CDC.. 1/2

Washington Post’s Carol Leonnig @carolleon and NBC’s Jacob Soboroff @jacobsoboroff moving to newly separating MSNBC (under the Comcast spinoff Versant) is forward-thinking *news*. The exceptional caliber of investigative reporting we need. The trade window has opened in Major League News.

This should nail down the perverted active role of Donald Trump in viciously assaulting very young individual victims during the Epstein years. The text is taken from the legal doc in the link. www.politico.com/f/?id=000001...

“Patriotism is a virtue of the vicious.” — Oscar Wilde

True dat.

An extremely important article about where we are tumbling to down the AI rabbit hole. Note the discussion of the fate of the “creative industries.” Be very afraid. thecritic.co.uk/ai-will-kill...

Seeing President Biden at the Minnesota funeral, I am reminded not of a man who, ever attacked, valiantly fought against aging but instead of a time when we had the empathetic steward of a country that largely reflected day to day his deeply held values and beliefs. So much we have let slip away.

National Guard? Maybe the Marines? LA potentially a 21st century Lexington/Concord for a modern-day Civil War? Americans pitched against Americans: in this case the poor and working class face off against the war instruments of entrenched power.

As Trump’s pardon of the Crisleys demonstrates, reality stars are now being released from reality.

This is the real-world impact of immigrants in our country. BTW, subscribe to The Daily Yonder for the best reporting on rural America. dailyyonder.com/internationa...

Fox has Fake News. CNN has Fake Tapper.

Nosferatu the vampire (in the film): “I am APPETITE, nothing more.” Donald Trump (in our dark reality): “I am APPETITE, nothing more.”

Current Axis of Cruelty: Putin, Netanyahu, Trump

Blaming Joe Biden for *losing* an election where it’s estimated that some 15 MILLION Democratic voters DID NOT VOTE is both ludicrous and tragic.

As in China’s Tiennemen Square years ago, on June 14th, some brave folk should step out and stand fast in front of the tanks parading for Trump on Pennsylvania Avenue. Good Patriotic Trouble.

A prime example of the devastation being visited upon a particular art form and its ever vulnerable choreographers, dancers, and community presenters. A septic shock to the system. dancemagazine.com/national-end...

Why isn’t the international community organizing airlifts to drop food and medicine into Gaza? Do we think the Israeli government would shoot down humanitarian aircraft and drones? Do we really think Hamas would steal it all?

Maybe this is where children will mourn their dolls lost to Trump.

Artists and those who love and respect them, MAGA is coming for you. newrepublic.com/article/1946...

Of course, they’re now coming for the artists . . . WANTED DEAD OR ALIVE: Our Imaginations. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/03/a...

There’s always talk about Rachel/Lawrence’s impact on MSNBC. And about the loss of Katy Phang from her appearances as host. But Jose Diaz-Balart, ending today on MSNBC, has been one of the most informed and powerful voices on immigration has rarely been mentioned. His loss is just as devastating.

Canada just voted in sanity. Why the hell can’t we?

In the Watergate affair, impeachment proceedings against Nixon, while bipartisan, were largely led by Republicans. It can happen here.

An important reminder for this perilous time for the arts. theconversation.com/with-federal...

It’s time for Congress to act: Trump must be impeached for gross negligence of duty and intentional damage to the precepts of the American constitution, including the grievous harm inflicted by both on American citizens and others residing in our country.

The Proud Boys are set to demonstrate this Saturday, 4/19, in Lexington MA on the occasion of the 250th anniversary of the battle of Lexington&Concord. So - Trump wasn’t bringing his culture war to my home’s backyard? I hope the American Revolutionary War rebel re-enactors turn out in force. JFC!

Notably, the Titanic sank on this date in 1912. Nice to see Trump steering us right into an economic and civil rights iceberg. If only the captain would go down instead of his ship.

William Kristol today: . . . ( From) The young Abraham Lincoln’s 1838 address to the Young Men’s Lyceum of Springfield, Illinois, where he spoke on “The Perpetuation of Our Political Institutions”: 1/2

What we are learning about the so-called *Deep State” is that the “Deepest State” has been long populated by honorable federal employees diligently carrying out the vital services that every citizen - and the well-being of the country - needs.

The Russian-American ballerina Ksenia Karolina was just released from over a year in a Russian prison for making a $52 contribution to the Ukraine. Will we soon see prosecutions in Trump’s America for making financial contributions to non-profit causes?

Donald Trump and his Mobland gangsters are serial killers of human rights and societal obligations. The Constitution is ripped and bleeding out.

It’s about time for major media outlets - WaPo, Bloomberg, the Wall Street Journal, the New Yorker, and more - to TEMPORARILY TAKE DOWN their PAYWALLS in order to fully expand the virally needed flow of information in the fight for democracy and against the policies of the Trump administration.
