Jamal Khashoggi's widow, Hanan Elatr Khashoggi: "Try as much as you can to save democracy and freedom of the press and speech in America. Do not be a copy of a Middle East dictatorship. We look to you as a role model of Western civilization—please maintain it."

Is the brain worm turning?

The great @timothysnyder.bsky.social explains why this new Trump-backed Ukraine plan sells out Ukraine, Europe, and democracies across the world. Take a few minutes and watch.

It is hard to put into words how much damage Trump is doing to our own country, how unfit and malevolent he is.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the bright and courageous trans people whose lives were stolen by hatred. Their absence is felt across our city.

We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.

long Trump rant about Epstein files, Democrat hoax.

Quiet, Piggy.

Gaza is still suffering. The U.S. must restore support for UNRWA and demand full aid access now.

Thank you Charlotte! It was such a fun group. And yes. Gilpin needs her lead.

My brief thoughts on "Death by Lightning" -- the new Netflix series about the assassination of James Garfield, based on the book "Destiny of the Republic" by Candice Millard, one of the most entertaining historical novelists of our era.

Top of my mind: superb casting.

Hey Megyn Kelly,

14-year-old Eloise would like a word:

“If my voice makes you uncomfortable, good…
because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.”

Sound up! 🔥🔊

This is me at 15. I’m a child.
I’m a CHILD.

“Parents who, after consulting with a doctor and a psychologist, allow their 15-year-old child to transition commit child abuse. The child is too young to consent!”

--Megyn R. Kelly

“Grown men who have sex with your 15-year-old? Big whoop! It’s not like she’s 8. LOL!”

--Also Megyn R. Kelly

If Joe Biden had an MRI a month ago and we had no idea why it was done or on what body part and he claimed he had no idea about either of those things it would literally be all you heard about in the press but Trump just gets a huge pass b/c reporters treat him differently.

“We are slow to realize that democracy is a life and involves continual struggle. It is only as those of every generation who love democracy resist with all their might the encroachments of its enemies that the ideals of representative government can even be nearly approximated.” -Robert La Follette

Looks like we’re going to war with Venezuela to distract from the Epstein files.

Thanks for your incisive cultural insight Ross! BTW, the conservative movement you’ve made a career of make excuses for is protecting a pedophile…

Best case: The President of the United States knew about a pedophilia ring and did nothing to stop it.

Medium case: He also used his office to protect the perpetrators.

Worst case: Because he was one of the perpetrators.

Jasmine Crockett: "If people decide that they want to continue to support person who may be a pedophile themselves or a person who obviously is covering on pedophiles, that's on them. But they should at least know the devil they decided to pick."

Obviously this person is very dangerous.

PBS did us a solid and dropped the whole Epstein emails.

I guess we know why Trump, Bondi, Patel and Mike Johnson have been covering up the Epstein files. I’m sure there is a whole lot more and a whole lot worse.

The days of thanking veterans today and forgetting them tomorrow has to come to an end.

This is sheer perfection.

I'm thinking today of all my fellow veterans but especially the more than 5,000 trans service members and their families who were kicked out of the military this year despite being highly qualified and serving honorably. This injustice will be a stain on our nation's history.

A 1-year-old girl was pepper-sprayed through the window of a moving vehicle by ICE agents in Chicago. She was briefly hospitalized.

The dad said a masked agent pointed pepper-spray at a Sam's parking lot when they were hit.

A vile country isn't a country that can't feed its children, a vile country is a country that *won't* feed its children.

I've looked at all the details of this deal to end the shutdown reached by a small group of Senate Democrats. I've talked to a number of friends on the Hill to see if there's anything I'm missing. Sadly, I am not.

This is a shit deal. It's a betrayal. It's cowardice.
