How news coverage eases us into tyranny When the media act like things are normal, they don’t reassure us – they gaslight us

"It’s an indictment of mainstream media that this process keeps getting worse. There’s no learning curve. The operating principle seems to be: MAGA Republicans have lied to us for a decade, but we have to pretend they might be telling the truth this one time."

So inflation and cost of living has been going up every month since this administration took over…this administration that promised it would all come down on day 1?

Now it’s because of the previous administration?

The one that had nothing to do with tariffing the entire planet?

Makes sense.

Don’t worry. I have a plan to replace the biggest health care market in the country. One fifth of the economy.

Also, though, what are magnets?

You've whored yourselves to Trump.

GET OUT.

THE NEW COUNTDOWN PODCAST IS NOW LIVE: tinyurl.com/4kyehbm2

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

Reporter: Dr Oz said that—

Jeffries: Who? Nobody who is serious in this country takes Dr. Oz seriously… I’m not going to respond to any comments from randos like Dr. Oz who is woefully unqualified.

We should start by taking healthcare away from Republican members of Congress, since they feel it’s a “fake economy” anyway

A graphic with a white and gray gradient background contains bold red text that reads: “BELIEVING THE REPUBLICANS WHEN THEY ‘PROMISE’ A VOTE ON HEALTHCARE IS LIKE BELIEVING TRUMP WHEN HE SAID PROJECT 2025 WASN’T THE PLAN OF HIS ADMINISTRATION.” At the bottom, it credits @kdnerak33.bsky.social, and in the corner is the logo BRIAN TYLER COHEN.

To the 8 senators who voted to give up the only leverage they had and trust the GOP:

Phang: These firings were illegal in the first fucking place.

It’s like the Republicans are supposed to think that they’ve now done something right by not doing what is illegal in the first place.

They caved. Senate Democrats caved. Their voters demanded just one very simple thing: FIGHT. Dammit, just FIGHT. Instead, they caved.

He's already declaring victory.
Elected Dems, you are so stupid.

On Tuesday, Americans sent Democrats a resounding message.

“Fight for us”

“Fight for working class Americans”

“Fight against Trump’s corruption, criminality and cruelty”

5 days later, Democrat Senators sent Americans a resounding message.

“Nah”

Just pointing out that Hakeem Jeffries got TWO HUNDRED AND TWELVE House Democrats to hold the line.

Not one House Democrat cracked.

Not one House Democrat caved.

I’m going to remember that.

Whatever will Trump do? Ending the shutdown means bringing back the House for a vote on the Epstein files.

It's cool when a member of Congress says there's no point in standing up to the bully who is literally taking our tax money.

We do not have a federal government.

Our corrupt, convicted criminal, thug president has once again pardoned the co-conspirators in his attempted coup.

He is clearly terrified of Jack Smith’s testimony.

The 8 Senate Dems who caved on affordable healthcare:

Fetterman-PA (reelection in 28)
Cortez Masto-NV (reelection in 28)
Hassan-NH (reelection in 28)
Rosen-NV (reelection in 30)
Kaine-VA (reelection in 30)
King-ME (reelection in 30)
Durbin-IL (retiring)
Shaheen-NH (retiring)

The vast majority of homeowners with fire insurance never file a claim but we don't say fire insurance is a bad idea. Having the insurance *is* using the system. And I think that people actually understand this *because everyone needs health insurance*

-Rudy Giuliani
-John Eastman

-Ken Chesebro
-Christina Bobb

"Bullies gain power when righteous people yield in the face of their wrongdoing."

Trump Threatens to Sue the BBC for $1 Billion After Jan. 6 Documentary A lawyer for the president said the BBC’s editing of a speech Mr. Trump gave on Jan. 6 was “defamatory.” The broadcaster on Monday apologized for an “error in judgment.”

Breaking News: President Trump threatened to sue the BBC for $1 billion for a Jan. 6 documentary that his lawyer claimed made “disparaging” edits to his speech.

Trump just pardoned the entire 2020 coup cast…Giuliani, Meadows, Powell and 74 more. Fantastic. Nothing screams “I’m innocent”…like handing out get-out-of-jail cards to everyone who helped you try to steal an election. Hell of a business model, though.

It is fucking insane to me that senate democrats bailed him out

All Air Traffic Controllers must get back to work, NOW!!! Anyone who doesn’t will be substantially “docked.” For those Air Traffic Controllers who who were GREAT PATRIOTS, and didn’t take ANY TIME OFF for the “Democrat Shutdown Hoax,” I will be recommending a BONUS of $10,000 per person for distinguished service to our Country. For those that did nothing but complain, and took time off, even though everyone knew they would be paid, IN FULL, shortly into the future, I am NOT HAPPY WITH YOU. You didn’t step up to help the U.S.A. against the FAKE DEMOCRAT ATTACK that was only meant to hurt our Country. You will have a negative mark, at least in my mind, against your record. If you want to leave service in the near future, please do not hesitate to do so, with NO payment or severance of any kind! You will be quickly replaced by true Patriots, who will do a better job on the Brand New State of the Art Equipment, the best in the World, that we are in the process of ordering. The last “Administration” wasted Billions of Dollars trying to fix antiquated “junk.” They had no idea what they were doing! Again, to our great American Patriots, GOD BLESS YOU - I won’t be able to send your money fast enough! To all others, REPORT TO WORK IMMEDIATELY. GOD BLESS AMERICA! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP

Trump to air traffic controllers: "For those that did nothing but complain, and took time off, even though everyone knew they would be paid, IN FULL, shortly into the future, I am NOT HAPPY WITH YOU. You didn’t step up to help the U.S.A. against the FAKE DEMOCRAT ATTACK"

Trump: All Air Traffic Controllers must get back to work, NOW!!! Anyone who doesn’t will be substantially “docked.”… I am NOT HAPPY WITH YOU.

Ted Cruz: "The heart of the Democratic Party today is communist and jihadist and extremist."

Ted Cruz: "I think right now the 2 frontrunners for the Democratic nomination in 2028 are AOC and Mamdani. Now, he's not even eligible, but what do they care? Law doesn't mean anything to them. That's where their party is."

Trump on Nancy Pelosi's retirement: "I think she was an evil woman. I'm glad she's retiring. I think she did the country a great service by retiring.“

I’ve been in a lot of rooms with people having a medical emergency; it’s a rare “skill” to be this utterly disinterested in the person’s welfare 😳
