Hi @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social, we're friendly, we've been on each other's shows. We both agree Kirk's murder is horrific. Q: was Kirk "practicing politics in exactly the right way" when he called for me to be deported because he didn't like my Covid views on MSNBC?

I’ve been reading about the rise of Nazism a lot and one thing that’s really clear is that Hitler at the very beginning was envisioning massive violence against Jews and others, and backfilled everything else to get there. That’s how fascism works. And it’s what MAGA is doing.

going to start calling myself a centrist and then listing all my leftist views as proof, just going to start moving the overton window by force

YouTube video by C-SPAN Heated exchange between Sen. Ossoff (D-GA) and CIA Director Ratcliffe

Gonna vote my Ossoff for this guy. #Georgia

OSSOFF: Director Ratcliffe, this was a huge mistake, correct?

RATLIFFE: No

OSSOFF: This is an embarrassment

Trump’s Commerce Secretary just said seniors shouldn’t “call and complain” if they stop getting their Social Security checks: “A fraudster always makes the loudest noise screaming and complaining.”

Inside Elon Musk’s ‘Digital Coup’ Musk’s loyalists at DOGE have infiltrated dozens of federal agencies, pushed out tens of thousands of workers, and siphoned millions of people’s most sensitive data. The next step: Unleash the AI.

THE INSIDE STORY:

I know this is extremely vulgar idealism, but I do think we should try to aggressively reassert the norm that lying is bad. Not in a "Four Pinnochios" fact-checking kind of way, but in a way that frames this kind of lying as moral degeneracy that is fundamentally corrosive to the human spirit.

congrats democrats, you got played like chumps. but at least you're respecting the office or some bullshit

Protect your peace.

Don’t fall for Elon Musk’s smoke screen.

What he doesn’t want you to know is that there’s a fix to extend Social Security’s solvency: end the tax cap.

Billionaires like him reach the cap on New Year’s Day. Let them contribute all year long like the rest of us. Problem solved.

Whatever you think about Ukraine and Russia, you have to admit that Zelensky's refusal to fellate Trump and Vance on tv was a major diplomatic failure.

Sorry Ukraine, some of us over here did try but we all failed catastrophically to make this country do the right thing.

I’m still processing what we saw in the Oval Office and it’s difficult to put into words how disgusted and ashamed I am.

This was a coordinated assault on an ally to benefit a dictator and authoritarian regime. Trump and Vance aren’t just Putin’s puppets, they’re his assets.

Tesla stock bounced a little today, as bulls defended the 200 day moving average, a key psychological barrier. Don't be discouraged. They are fighting the momentum, it's costing them money to do it, and they know they can't keep it up forever. We're just getting started.

Read Trump and Zelensky’s Fiery Oval Office Exchange The meeting caps weeks of tense relations between Kyiv and Washington as they wrangle a deal.

There’s a fake transcript of the Oval Office meeting today going around. Here’s a real one.

Nobody should be surprised that our Secretary of State is a pathetic, weak, cowardly piece of shit.

My bosstones? Mighty mighty.

My punk? Daft.

The Trump administration has canceled an upcoming meeting of the Food and Drug Administration’s vaccine advisory committee, a move that could complicate efforts to produce flu shots in time for the upcoming season.

I'm telling you there is going to be no better time to cheat on your taxes.

My religion? Bad.
