@maddow.msnbc.com If I had to guess why the administration is axing cancer research, it would be because the cancer shot was Joe Biden’s big push. The orange guy sees Biden as an opponent & he’s attacking anything his “opponents” want(ed).

Thank you!

Where’s the clue for tonight?

@slate.com 1) The Bluesky link on your website goes to Xitter. 2) Tour games email headline today is redundant. “Whence” means “from where,” so please tell your headline writers to never again say, “from whence.”

Democrats must prepare for the fact that people won’t feel worst of the cuts for several years because of the reconciliation rules. So they may well hit without hurting folks in office now. And folks who are in office when they hit could get blamed.

I’m pissed at Dems, not because I want them to work across the aisle, but because I want them to act as though the house is on fire!

@mollyjongfast.bsky.social That one question you ask Dem legislators at the end. They just can’t answer it, can they? Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan almost made it—but she made Trump a throwaway line in her quest to prove bipartisan bona fides.

@dahlialithwick.bsky.social Thank you for saying the case (Humphrey’s Executor) “wends its way”! I’m so tired of all the instances of “winds its way” I’ve been hearing lately!

@governor.ca.gov I can’t tell you how sorry I am that I voted for you. Never again! Sure, kowtow to Trump and cut healthcare to undocumented people, why don’t you? Disgusting. How long before you’re officially a Republican?

@davidsirota.com Hope you have a palate cleanser after the Norquist “Tax Revolt.” What a piece of work! Sure, all we need is contract law to govern 330 million people. Oh & ask Elie Mystal about how great airline deregulation was. There’s a whole chapter on it in his “Bad Law.” I need a shower now.

@mattlech.bsky.social Just listening to Kara Swisher tell Dahlia Lithwick that Elon Musk is deadly serious about going to Mars—& I can’t stop thinking—and shouting at the podcast—that Mars is in the SAME SOLAR SYSTEM! Now that you’ve pointed it out, I don’t understand why no one else gets this.

Me, too.

Naaah. If he were full-throated, we’d know where we stand. The problem is he’s trying too hard to placate everyone. Like being the governor of one of the world’s biggest economies doesn’t give him enough backing At least Bonta’s out there suing.

a man in a black leather jacket is standing in front of a purple background Alt: An African American male in a black shirt and leather jacket with bisxual lighting of purple and pink behind them as they point up as the words "this. All of this" appear and they wave their fingers at it

For fucking real! Can't speak for everyone but let's be candid, nearly every perosn I know who isn't republican is fed up that democrats talk morals but never fucking stand up for them

Tbeyll sit there with their bidding paddles but if someone stands up and calls shit out they clutch their pearls

Why do Democrats misread polls so badly? The low approval does NOT mean people want you to shift to the right. We’re pissed because you won’t stick up for people. Don’t suck up—push back!

Omg! What a baby!

Oh, stop sucking up. It’s embarrassing.

No, worse. She sounded like an establishment politician who is being too careful not to offend anyone while our democracy is crumbling around her. She has to realize she represents all of us—even non-Michiganders—because she has a platform. And the Left is aching for leadership.

You were so right to do it. It was a breath of fresh air. I can’t believe they think discussing how important kitchen table stuff is will fire up voters in the face of losing our democracy.

Not for anything Benson said for for Molly Jong Fast’s pushback. So worth it. I want every interviewer to do that whenever politicos fall back on their boring talking points

@mollyjongfast.bsky.social Thank you for your pushback against Michigan Sec. of State Benson. I was just about to ff to the end from boredom when you called her out. She just doesn’t get it. We are crying out for polemics and rhetoric and marching orders!

🤦‍♀️

Only if you pronounce “History,” as “Istory. I didn’t realize you were Cockney.

In the English language, you use “an,” only in front of words that begin with vowels. I am a former newspaper reporter and copy editor who also holds a history degree. It is “A historian” and “an apple.”

@thebradblog.bsky.social Just an FYI from the podcast today (last night), it’s “a historic,” not “an historic.” Sorry! Its just one of my bugaboos.

ROFL

Yeah, but Hegseth is so hot!

YouTube video by The View Why Elie Mystal Says Laws Passed Before 1965 Should Be Deemed Unconstitutional

Here’s your entire fantastic segment from The View: youtu.be/DzHXmyVg338?...

Phew! What a relief! Before I watched, I was sure we were there, with all the agencies being shut down, Social Security being twisted out of all ability to deliver. But now I know everything’s hunky dory. I’ll just sleep until Schumer tells me it’s time to fight.

I missed the Autopen clause in the Constitution. Can someone point it out for me? Is it before or after the part where you can’t be indicted unless you’ve been impeached and ousted?

@dahlialithwick.bsky.social @preetbharara.bsky.social Preet, the Steele dossier has never been discredited—except by Trump. Read “Unredacted,” Steele’s book, to find out just how wrong you are in today’s episode of Amicus.
