I got back to my office after the vote last night and recorded this. There's no way to sugarcoat what happened. And my fear is that Trump gets stronger, not weaker, because of this acquiescence. I'm angry - like you. But I choose to keep fighting.

I can’t believe Joe is pretending like this is 1994 and there’s always going to be another (free and fair) election.
Isn’t he getting paid to be a journalist, an objective observer of what’s happening?
The Trump dinner came with a free set of blinders and kneepads I guess.

Former Senator Al Franken resigned for smelling a woman’s hair. I’m guessing he was standing a lot farther away than this.

The problem is that we never had accountability for Trump’s crimes on January 6, stealing classified documents…147 Republican lawmakers voted to overturn the election. ICE is hiring the domestic terrorists from January 6. We need justice, not retribution.

The helicopters are real nuisance in South Portland. The noise curfew is 10 PM and helicopters are extremely noisy. Since there’s no threat to public safety, I think the helicopters should disperse at 10 PM.

Jimmy Kimmel wasn't suspended because of what he said. He was suspended because the FCC threatened his employer.
That's state-sanctioned censorship and it is a GIANT RED FLAG 🚩🚩🚩 that authoritarianism isn’t *coming* it’s ALREADY HERE. Today it's Jimmy. Tomorrow it's the rest of us.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

Trump is “not so sure” about 1st amendment right to protest

The statistics used to be available and showed overwhelmingly that stochastic terrorists are 98% right wing extremists. I heard Tyler Robinson went down a Nick Fuentes rabbit hole of delusional hallucination. Charlie Kirk wasn’t right wing enough for him.

I didn’t say that the right did the other 96%. I only said that the left did 4%. The Muslims play a part, but Trump is friends with MBS now, so it shouldn’t bother you.

No, the statistics about domestic terrorism at DHS, via the University of Maryland are not available because of doge.

This is just the most basic scaffolding of what creates orderly and transparent equities and capital markets. Making America Like the 1920s again

This is from the ADL. Doge has made it impossible for us to get the DHS research from the University of Maryland. I took notes a few years ago, and I think the actual numbers are more like 98% from groups like the Proud Boys and Oathkeepers to 2% of anarchists.

The left committed 4% of politically motivated murders between 2013 and 2022. It’s a misleading lie to claim that both sides do it the same.

Omg. Thanks for making me laugh.

Am I wrong in thinking that Republicans want to gerrymander the entire nation like the Jim Crow south?

First LA. Now DC. Other cities are next. Joe seems like a press secretary for Maga, normalizing the Trump’s abnormal anti-American desire for a tyrannical police state. Maybe Joe’s just a useful idiot.

I remember the last time there was massive crime in DC.

Johnson emerged from voting to obstruct the election on January 6 and writing an amicus brief for the swing states and Texas in order to overthrow the election, not obscurity. Unchecked time given to this article is an example of normalizing the abnormal for a dictator.

It’s about normalizing the abnormal. Death by 1000 cuts.

Just to be clear, whenever Trump says “We” are going to be great again, or I’m going to make “us” rich,
the “we” and the “us” mean the microscopic minority of people in the morbidly wealthy club and the bamboozled throngs who will ultimately pay the price.

I’m guessing that Russia has access to all of our nuclear capabilities and designs, thanks to doge and 47.

Don’t forget that apparently ice is recruiting proud boys. (I wonder how many of them participated in January 6?) Also, Joe Kent, a known proud boy, is in charge of counterterrorism at Homeland security.

Looks accurate.

It doesn’t seem like coincidence that Chris Kise, a registered foreign agent who represented Maduro against the US, is still working for 47.

USDA cancels $1B in local food purchasing for schools, food banks States have been notified that they will not receive 2025 funding for schools to buy food from nearby farms.

What Jesus would do.

It was their plan all along— the morbidly wealthy makes the most money when the stock market tanks. I think Elon even said that that was his plan.
At least Trump will have an excuse to fire him.

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%. 

Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?
