It is written: "You can't con people, at least not for long. You can create excitement, you can do wonderful promotion and get all kinds of press, and you can throw in a little hyperbole. But if you don't deliver the goods, people will eventually catch on. - Donald Trump, Art of the Deal

May I add: if you're a lawmaker in the minority, and you tell me you've "introduced a bill to <insert what people are outraged about>" as an answer, you're gaslighting your constituents. It's NOT getting a vote. Stop it.

This is an excellent idea!

10 years ago, I'd bet if I asked people what the definition of America was, a high percentage would use words like diversity, equity and inclusion.

Why aren't reporters clamoring for a Musk press conference, given he's the one making the decisions?

FYI: our U.S. House of Representatives has adjourned until Tuesday because there's not much going on.

I'm listening to Washington Journal this morning about the midair crash, and I'm wondering if people realize right-wing think tanks are responsible for elevating "DEI" as the new boogeyman? Remember the "CRT" boogeyman during the last election cycle?

Chuck Grassley is a fucking embarrassment to the United States. That's all.

I’m guessing they won’t find that Trump’s reckless and impulsive air safety cuts were directly responsible, but it is a reminder that not everything is a game, a show for Fox News approval.

A fucking punk weekend warrior like Pete Hegseth denigrating an Honorable man like Mark Milley makes my fucking blood boil.

Cheryl Hines blinks a lot.

Lest we forget Bobby Jr. was a "Democrat" his entire life until 2024. He's an opportunist. Period.

Everyone can take a break from the hearing as Senator Grassley struggles to read a statement with a mouth full of marbles.

I'd pay money to see a split-screen of Larry David's facial expressions during this hearing.

I know this won't be brought up, but I'd love to hear Bobby Jr. try to defend this super-crazy stuff during the pandemic.

I'm pretty sure Cheryl Hines is feverishly blinking "SOS" in Morse code over Bobby's right shoulder.

Of course a Senator with the name "Crapo" is leading the confirmation shit-show for RFK Jr.

Dear Canada and Greenland: come on in, the water's fine!

Fuck @cnn.com

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

Just like what Jesus would do... (Do you get an express pass at the pearly gates if your cross is diamond encrusted?)

Goon shit. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Only one problem: The Department of Government Efficiency doesn't exist.

When the Joint Chiefs Chairman is 1000 times more qualified than the incoming Secretary of Defense.

Weird. Chuck Grassley is speaking on the Senate floor right now and hasn't mentioned the purge.

This is silly. He won't have to "watch him like a hawk" that's what the inspector General is.....<puts finger in ear>.....wait.....what?

Well, at least Pete Hegseth is cured of his alcoholism.

McConnell VOTES NO ON HEGSETH!!

Even if you think a Nazi salute is a hilarious 4chan troll move, you are still, at minimum, Nazi curious. But if you also spent 44 billion dollars to let the Nazi hate flow, brother, you’re not fooling anybody but those paid to be fooled.

The Trump 2.0 worldview hearkens back to the best of America in the 19th century. But: "There’s a reason the 20th century happened." Regardless of your politics, I think you will find something of value in David Brooks' column. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/23/o...

The story behind RFK Jr. in Samoa's measles crisis has never been reported. He wasn't there to spread misinformation about vaccines (though he did). He wanted to study a "natural experiment" of unvaccinated kids. “I can’t imagine anything less ethical or more cruel.” www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

What a shame. Good luck Jurickson, you will be missed.

Brilliant.

Cloture vote to advance a Fox News weekend host to lead our United States armed forces passes 51-49. God help us all.

The TikTok EO orders the Attorney General "to issue a letter to each provider stating that there has been no violation of the statute and that there is no liability for any conduct that occurred" in the 75-day window. Anyone worthy of being AG would resign before carrying out such a lawless order.

I have no words. He's soooo embarrassing.

A small glimmer of hope for humanity.

Can someone explain why I would want or need my car to "crab-walk" please? I don't get it.

NEW: Judge CHUTKAN is now weighing in on Trump's mass dismissal of Jan. 6 cases, saying it "cannot whitewash the blood, feces, and terror that the mob left in its wake." www.politico.com/news/2025/01...

Welcome @padres.com!! Tell us something good!

"What could a banana cost, Michael? $10??"

I'm afraid to ask, but considering the Republicans are in charge of congress, would the mother get medical care too?

If a plea for kindness and empathy makes you furious, you might be a sociopath.

I wonder when Elon will realize Trump plans to be the richest man in the world within 4 years. Not him.

As a former Navy man I've made my fair share of jokes about the Coast Guard (cough...Knee-High Navy, cough...Puddle-Jumpers) but the acting Commandant calling the Gulf of Mexico the "Gulf of America" to appease the idiot in the white house takes the prize.

We're a few months away from "Well.... maybe he said 'jigger' or 'trigger'."

Now we know Musk’s ‘X’ is just a sans-serif swastika.

You know what to do Democrats did it on X !! Ready set go !! Delete !! www.bbc.com/news/article...

A guy just called into Washington Journal and said when we hear the Subway jingle say "Five-dollar foot-long" again, he'll know prices have come down. He was serious.

Wild. Top is the NBC upload, bottom is the one aired as the live feed
