JIM ACOSTA AND MICHAEL FANONE - LIVE FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA YouTube video by Jim Acosta

My friend @michaelfanone.bsky.social and I pushed back against Trump’s lies about January 6th during a town hall at the University of Virginia. Fanone told his full story from that day. His courage to continue to fight for our democracy and his family is inspiring: www.youtube.com/live/NJHMXKM...

Well… we buy books, for now. So kind of merch.

I could see this being the case.

I just don’t trust a single thing he does so I’m always looking at it through the lens of “what kind of fuckery is he up to now” instead of a simple answer.

Something is weird here. 2 days ago he was sending emails demanding our high schools develop chapters of that cause “so our kids learn to debate” despite most having speech and debate classes and all of the sudden he’s done?

🚨SOURCES: Walters out as State Supt. FOX 25 learned Ryan Walters is expected to resign Friday to take another job. Gov Stitt is rumored to be eyeing former Rep. Mark McBride for the job. McBride tells me he hasn’t discussed it with the gov but would ‘probably’ accept the job… #oklahoma #oklaed

He must have finally got the attention he was so pathetically desperate for. Good for him. Good for him.

Jimmy Kimmel is Back! Jimmy Kimmel returns to the air and talks about all of the people who have reached out over the last six days including fellow late night talk show hosts, fans of the show, and those who don’t support what he believes but support his right to share those beliefs anyway, and he expresses that it was never his intention to make light of the murder of a young man, how important it is to live in a country that allows us to have a show like this, the Chairman of the FCC Brendan Carr telling an American company that “We can do this the easy way or the hard way,” Trump saying he has no talent and no ratings, being fortunate to work at a company that has allowed us to do the show we want to do for almost 23 years, not agreeing with the decision to have our show pulled off the air last Wednesday, Trump making it very clear he wants to see Jimmy and other late night hosts fired, and solidarity from the right, left and those in the middle. Then Jimmy talks to the new FCC Chairman (Robert De Niro), and gets into Trump’s day addressing the United Nations, the escalator breaking, having trouble with the teleprompter, and the headache he’s creating with his buddy RFK over Tylenol.

Here is Jimmy Kimmel’s full monologue from tonight.

Jokes on FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, Trump, Tylenol, etc.

ABC News:

“At least 13 people have been wounded, five critically, in two shootings that erupted over a span of 12 hours at homeless encampments in Minneapolis.”

What we are witnessing is an outright abuse of power.

This administration is attacking critics and using fear as a weapon to silence anyone who would speak out. Media corporations — from television networks to newspapers — are capitulating to these threats.

This is a massive, history making abuse of your power. It will define your legacy and one day you will come to regret punishing free speech and trying to destroy democracy.

we're just doing this every day now

I will say that I find it weird that a lot of people are like "this is the moment that will tip us into violence" when a Minnesota politician was assassinated in her home 2 months ago and someone literally shot Trump in the head last year. how exactly is charlie kirk the tipping point

Here’s Your Cheat Sheet for Vaccine Recommendations Backed by Science These graphics will guide you through science-based vaccine guidelines for children and adults

Vaccination schedules on the CDC website have already started changing under RFK Jr. So we published a guide to the evidence-based vaccine recommendations in place *before* all 17 members of the advisory panel were abruptly dismissed by the new admin. www.scientificamerican.com/article/see-... 🧪

Thought for today

#Pinks

McGovern: Listen to this quote from Murkowski who just caved and voted for this. "My hope is that the house is going to look at this and recognize we are not there yet." 

If you really believe that, why the hell did you vote for the bill?

I’m so sick of this shit. That’s all. Just tired. So damn tired. It’s not even funny anymore.

“No right is safe in the new legal regime the Court creates.” –Justice Sonia Sotomayor.

One of the most chilling sentences I have ever read.

If the Supreme Court thinks universal injunctions are unconstitutional, to wait until *now* to say that, in this of all cases, with this of all presidents, is a devastating indictment of both its impartiality and its prudence.

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

Simpler times. I long for them. 😭

President Obama spoke yesterday about the need for law firms to stand up to Trump.

"Presumably, you went into the law because you believe in the law. If you are getting pressure from government saying ignore, fudge, or compromise that commitment. You have to push back."

Sen. Smith and I just spoke about the lives of Melissa and Mark Hortman on the floor. I shared these poignant words from their kids: “The best way to honor our parents’ memory is to do something, whether big or small, to make our community just a little better for someone else.”

Again, there are not enough red hats in that picture to convince me it’s from the parade. Period.

Trump: Why would I call the Governor (Tim Walz) he's whacked out. He's a mess. He doesn't have a clue.
Why would I call him? Why waste time?

Ladies and gentlemen this ⬆️ is our President.

Not only are they grieving the loss of Adriana, they’re now forced to contend with insane medical bills that come with having a baby in the NICU and be retraumatized from the fight this little one will have to endure just to make it out of the NICU. Is the state of Georgia going to help them? Cruel

The lack of red hats is all the proof I need.

They want us to believe that’s the actual parade but they didn’t consider photoshopping more red hats in the crowd to make it more believable?

Idk the answer to your question, this is the first time I’m seeing this and all I can think is that this man really thought Obama had his own cell phone service because people called the lifeline phones “Obama phones” and he’s trying to one up him or something because he’s jealous. 😭🤣

$45 MILLION of taxpayer money and couldnt get a bigger crowd than the crawfish festival in New Orleans. Smh.
