Healthcare cuts are a funding mechanism for Trump to reward tech oligarchs and other billionaires. Slashing the safety net and consolidating power go together for him.

RIGGED!!!

See you can do this without praising certain people 🤯

The malicious prosecution of Attorney General Tish James is baseless.

And the indictment is not worth the paper it is written on.

Indicting political opponents & critics because they are political opponents & critics is terrifying.

It's completely inconsistent with the rule of law & democracy.

It should scare everyone - and (hopefully) will get people to realize that we all need to stand against this.

This was good and I wish Ezra would stick to stuff like this

Gov. Shapiro: "The way the president has chosen to deploy the National Guard in other states, and to deploy the Guard of one state. Texas, into another state, Illinois, is extremely dangerous...It does not make us more safe. It creates chaos and real danger in our communities."

This fucker pressured O’Connor to rule in favor of Bush in Bush v. Gore in a purely partisan decision leading us directly to where we are today and he’s gonna wax poetic about partisanship?

As we head into the 2026 midterms, it’s critical that we remember how important election workers are to having safe and secure elections. Check out this screening of THE OFFICIALS followed by a panel discussion about the future of election administration in the U.S. — tonight!

It will shock you how much this shutdown never happened Voters have short memories

I’m usually of the opinion that fights are overrated.

But I also think Democrats aren’t losing the shutdown, despite picking a fight, and that it won’t matter at all for 2026 anyway. The numbers suggest they’re doing OK and journalists are just bored.

He said yesterday he assumes it was him.

Should be an easy no even for this asshole

I have been listening to people say for years they just want insurance the way it was. They think it’s going to be $150 a month and cover everything 😂 good luck

I’ll take the over.

This strikes me as pretty bad

He’s blowing up the boats because Obama. 😂

Tapper is defending CBS because he’s friends with Bari Weiss

😂😂😂😂😂

"One of Trump's biggest supporters is saying, we want him to be a benevolent authoritarian strongman....I'm a little alarmed that they're putting that into the public discourse."

"Wait till Trump reposts it."

@billkristolbulwark.bsky.social joins @timmiller.bsky.social on today's Bulwark Podcast:

....you literally voted for all of this. He is doing LITERALLY everything he said he would.

You simply choose to ignore the awful shit he said because, pronouns or something....🤷‍♂️

When is Adelita Grijalva going to be sworn in?

Dear reporters: Ask him to explain how.

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

I don’t know anything about it again.

It is obvious that a cohort of techno nerd sociopaths have enacted a massive con where they’ve convinced themselves AI will be able to do everything. And they won’t need to worry about paying workers or dealing with annoying demanding employees.

40% of our economy is now running on this con.

Yikes

The thing about Bari Weiss is how fucking boring she is, she’s not even bad in a fun way. Anyway, congrats. I will continue not relying on cbs news

Every Trump speech now produces approximately two dozen 30-second clips peppering the feed that each alone should trigger impeachment or 25th amendment proceedings and are indistinguishable from what your worst uncle would produce if he had any idea how to make ai-generated videos

Once again, where is the CNO? SECNAV? After what just happened in Quantico, when will the military top brass speak up?
I asked this after the disgrace at Ft. Bragg, too.
