I just listened to the Fight for Truth podcast. It was fabulous and I will read the book. My most recent alarm with this is an Israeli friend who does not believe people are starving in Gaza. She believes it is a hoax and that western media has been duped.

I love the MSNBC Prime Time Weekend group/show. All the other MSNBC groups aren’t working for me. This one is so smart.

The 30 that showed up in a San Diego neighborhood a couple of nights ago were ICE. Took 30 with tactical gear and AR style guns to arrest 4 family men when they showed up for work. SHAME.

@stephruhle.bsky.social l love you and love your show. Tonight you talked about ports and truckers and small businesses. But the bottom line is consumers.

Ya, well, Trump shouldn’t be President so there you go.

Agreed.

Mitch McConnell has concerns that Trump is giving Putin everything he wants. If only Mitch would have voted “guilty” when Trump was guilty of working with Russia in his first election. Lot’s of what is happening now goes back to things that Mitch has done.

@maddow.msnbc.com @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com Why did the king of Jordan say this? "I truly believe, with all the challenges that we have in the Middle East, that I finally see somebody that can take us across the finish line to bring stability, peace, and prosperity to all of us in the region."

this is how it feels to reach 30 MILLION users!!!

This is Carolyn Edwards. She was one of the first officers attacked and knocked out on January 6th. She bravely testified before the January 6th committee. She is one of the bravest people I know and she deserves better. (She posted this publicly on her FB page which is why I'm sharing publicly)

Word.

Of course, going through 1500 records one by one to figure out who attacked police officers would be tedious. Trump doesn't want to work that hard and doesn't want his staff to work that hard and doesn't want the government work period.

How can this have happened? I can't believe we have pardoned all of the J6 criminals. I say "we" because we are the United States of America and we are responsible for
the things our elected officials do. I am ashamed and worried.

Yikes. The inaugural address makes me think your “strap in” advice is well taken.

This is painful. But we mustn’t look away. It is hard being the ones to truly honor the law and constitution when the other side only accepts the results of an election when they win. It is going to be a long difficult four years.

@mopedpd.bsky.social Thanks for b’day wish. I have also signed out of facebook and instagram in protest.

I love this bead😍

I LOVED your comment that you are more masculine that Zuckerberg. I know it is true. It made me think of a negotiation situation when my husband counseled me by reminding me that, "Sometimes you have too much testosterone, Joan."

This Zberg thick neck bro “it’s a good thing” comment on Rogan nauseates me. Please give us something that lets me leave FB. Mostly I need a strong connection to the people I care about and not random people who connect.

Wait. What? Is this one dog or two?

Meta’s new hate speech rules allow users to call LGBTQ people mentally ill Changes to its hate speech guidelines were among broader policy shifts Meta made to its moderation practices.

We cannot support the allowing misinformation and hate.

Hey bsky let’s make this a place people who want to leave Facebook can go.

Meta to End Fact-Checking Program in Shift Ahead of Trump Term The social networking giant will stop using third-party fact-checkers on Facebook, Threads and Instagram and instead rely on users to add notes to posts. It is likely to please President-elect Trump a...

Regarding Joe pardoning Hunter. I’m cool with it. What do you think?

With great engagement comes great responsibility, which means Bluesky CEO @jay.bsky.team has a lot to do. She sat down with WIRED to talk about it.

I took the holiday weekend off from watching news. I just dropped back in. Yikes! Lash Patel?

One of my favourite poems.

My new favorite thing is Stephanie Ruhle's show, The Eleventh Hour, on Friday nights. It is what Bill Maher was before he became so tight ass about his favorite issues.
