Turns Out There Was Voter Fraud in Georgia—by Elon Musk The state board of elections found Musk’s PAC sent prefilled ballot applications.

The story that Elon Musk committed voter fraud has gotten next to no coverage -- one of those things you can't make come up on a Google search.

But I think it's time for Dems to go on offensive abt right wing coddling of this immigrant interfering in our elections.

Every wholesome part of our civic life— libraries, the post office, public parks, public ANYTHING— seems to be under attack these days. Truly depressing

If there is no data, who is to say that Trump is unpopular?

One of the best moments I’ve seen on tv

We gotta come up with a better system than “everything rests on whether these twelve billionnaires are nice”

Aww man… is there no exception?

Whoops.

Why is Hungary in the EU?

This is one of those moments where I think about how the 2003 version of me would react if I said “in 2026 you will regularly find yourself nodding in agreement with Bill Kristol”? This is such spectacular argument and I hope some prominent democrats are listening.

"If you deserted Trump, we could get to 60 votes and end this occupation of Minneapolis."

"You funded the murder."

@timmiller.bsky.social and @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social talk the complicit GOP Congress on today's Bulwark Podcast:

I actually think this admin has given future administrations an amazing new tool. If there is a person or group of people that you kinda don’t like, and prosecuting seems too burdensome… you can just send these people to CECOT. Turn about is fair play after all…

And then they’ll say the revenue declined so we have to sell the parks and turn them into copper mines or deportation camps

They cannot imagine people in the 1700’s who generally went to church, participated in groups or helped with upkeep, but didn’t orient their entire lives around it. There are LOTS of people who meet that criteria today, but we think the founders were somehow different than the rest of us.

I choose to believe that the castle really is Alan Cumming’s personal castle. #thetraitorsus

If trump tries to take Greenland, Europe will HAVE to open fire on US aircraft. This is insane and something I never thought I would see in my lifetime.

The flooring is tacky. The white paint is too bright and should’ve been a softer cream white. And the lighting is homophobically bright harsh overhead lighting. Just everything is terrible

trump even looks like Mr Potter from It’s a Wonderful Life

JUST IN: CBS’s Kennedy Center Honors just hit an all-time ratings low. Preliminary Nielsen data shows only ~2.65M viewers tuned in to the Trump-hosted show, down from 4.1M in 2024. A stunning 35% year-over-year collapse.

MAHA Wins

Money talks and bullshit walks. I always loved that line.

Money talks and bullshit walks.

Great show. I did always get confused about how 20-something Amanda peet was the head of the network though

This is depressing to see, but also necessary. Trump is turning the USA into the country version of himself: shouting how wonderful we are while we have no friends and a growing list of people who resent us. The only language these people speak is dollars. Please remember that.

I was surprised at how touching it was.

I voted in Missouri in 2000 and voted for Nader. Bush narrowly won the state but elected democrats to governor, lt governor, Treasurer and attorney general AND elected Mel Carnahan to the senate (despite having died in a plane crash before the election). I will never stop regretting my Nader vote.

This is the moment where two realities diverged

Always nice to have a reminder from time to time that the Bulwark and I used to be on opposite sides of the aisle.

One step closer to signing an allegiance to the sun king, our one true president

Bill, I don’t think any serious democrat is trying to destroy the free market. But my entire life we have been told that trickle down economics is gonna work. And I’m wondering how much longer we have to wait for normal non-bezos’ to see any benefit?
