Cycling and politics, obviously. Also tennis, dogs and schadenfreude. I’m mostly here to soothe my soul because I’m genuinely worried about the future of our country. Overturn Citizens United. #VoteBlue

Just a reminder that Trump's already down to 41% in the polls, and below that on the economy, and Americans have only felt the 401(k) part of his stupid trade war, not the inflation and the potential stagflation yet.

“No one, apparently, is willing to prevent a single man from destroying the world economy, wrecking financial markets, forcing this country and other countries into recession – if that’s what he feels like doing when he gets up tomorrow morning.”

I've always loved Conan O'Brien. Words of wisdom from him.

I’m totally fine with deporting gang members who commit crimes who don’t have legal status.

I just don’t want Tom Homan or an ICE agent grabbing anyone off the street and flying them to a prison in El Salvador while claiming they are all of those things with zero due process.

'They've radicalized me': Federal workers fight back as Trump dismantles their work While protests against Trump and Musk’s cuts are happening around the country, much of the organizing has been happening online.

He’s still worse at being vice president than he is at skiing. And he’s an incredibly bad skier.

This is not about government efficiency. This is about government emasculation. It's all one big lie.

Have we really become so angry and intolerant that we can’t even let the vice president enjoy some skiing in peace the day after he signed off on the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians?

He didn't wear a suit, but he received a pardon and was treated better than Zelenskyy was.

It’s nice how they’ve replicated the middle school dynamic of the insecure bully and his sniveling sidekick picking on someone surrounded by a circle of scared little boys who also try to talk shit so the bully doesn’t come after them.

Or as the right calls it, “masculinity.”

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

Federal workers at a Virginia town hall last night—this says it all!

“I know their goal is to make us miserable.” — so they don’t show up to work.

And Dems, take note: People aren’t here for your ill-timed, tone-deaf donation requests. It’s going to backfire. They want to see you fight for them!
