My favourite TSN announcer/reporter is Laura Diakun. There I said it, and I don’t regret it, she’s better than Jay, Duthie and other big names on that network.

Dear Ali,
Love your reporting and the early morning show but I’m wondering what happens to you after MSNBC is hived off from Comcast. Will you continue to cover the congress or will you stay with MS Now (crappy name by the day). You are a rising star.⭐️

Man. There are a lot of cynics out there. If what Booker is doing doesn’t bring YOU joy, there’s no need to shit all over everyone else’s appreciation.

We can’t say this enough: When people in Trumpβ€˜s orbit deliberately lie about how our constitutional democracy works, they violate the oaths they take to uphold the law. & they violate the trust the American people place in them.

As a father of five kids, I totally agree with this evergreen post.

Um. What the fuck?

β€œElon was very effective. He knows those computers better than anybody. Those vote counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide. It was pretty good. Thank you to Elon.”

Did Donald Trump just admit he cheated in Pennsylvania?

Even in Death, Navalny Still Threatens the Putin Regime The opposition leader’s posthumous memoir is a chronicle of a death foretold.

The point isn’t to pat ourselves on the back because we have it better. It’s to remember that if people like Navalny are willing to risk imprisonment, torture, and death to resist an evil empire, there is no excuse for us to back down.

I love with the ACA has done for people with pre-existing conditions. But.

Let's face reality, ACA 2013 was a different world. Since then Insurance Companies have learned how to game the system.

For the subsidized silver/94 and /87 plans, around ~15 % of taxpayer $ stays with ins comps!

The highest compliment I can pay Jayden Daniels is he makes me say dumb football cliches like β€œhe’s just a WINNER” when I watch him play

My favorite part of Zuckerberg's Joe Rogan interview is when he suggests there is not enough masculine energy at his company, where two out of every three employees is a man.

Corporations give money to Trump because they, like him, only care about themselves.

Support our campaign to oppose MAGA extremism!

Trump's nominee for Atty. General Pam Bondi is registered as a foreign agent for Qatar. Nothing says "America First" like someone whose client is a foreign gov't. Her commitment would be not to justice but to the country whose check clears first! http://dlvr.it/THKGMp

Think different in 2025:

Find and support businesses that are actually doing the right thing. Money talksβ€”spend it where it matters.
