🇺🇸 Fox News, which is considered a media outlet that is a strong supporter of Trump, decided to publish his sons' criminal scheme in crypto trading.

do these geniuses ever wonder why or have any way to rationalize the fact that no one in the republican party says "we need a strong democratic party, it's not healthy to have just a dominant republican party" or do they just blank out like a westworld robot

Democrat Phil Weiser is the overwhelming favorite to be Colorado's next Governor. He says Colorado would be better served with a more competitive Republican party. "Competition makes us stronger," Weiser said. "It's not healthy for any state to have one party that's dominant."

Ukraine's Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha: "Very few believed this day would come," "But it did." "We need this tribunal to be global in nature. At present, it is no longer limited to Europe. This is very important for justice and the inevitability of punishment." #3E #EndImpunity

Fox Business: The US economy is sitting on a razor's edge. Economist Mark Zandi placed the probability of a recession within the next year at 40%. “In my 36 years as a professional economist, the stock market’s never been more disjoint from the economy.” #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed

Based on this Virginia ruling, the Tennessee and Florida maps should both also be shot down. If not, Virginia should just pull a Tennessee and change the rules to ram it though the legislature. 🤷‍♂️

The editorial cartoonist's pen is one of the sharpest tools in journalism, whittling issues down to basics for satire or rage. I'm proud to say that my long-ago colleague, Milt Priggee, is unafraid to shock with a tough point of view.

Justice Kagan: "The Callais requirements have thus laid the groundwork for the largest reduction in minority representation since the era following Reconstruction." "[T]he majority makes a nullity of Section 2 and threatens a half-century's worth of gains in voting equality."

This is correct. There is no future of democratic self government in the US with an unreformed Supreme Court. The Court is riddled with corruption and abuses of power and rooting out that corruption is a sine qua non of civic democracy in the United States.

How Volodymr Zelenskyy manages to survive in a literal war without a ballroom to keep him safe is just shocking to me.

The remaining Democrats in the California gubernatorial race need to get together and do something I’ve hardly seen any Democrat *actually* do in the Trump era, for all their lip service to it: put country above self. At least two should drop out to avoid a Governor Hilton.

this is a boring take but if we want this from a Dem President in 2029 we need to deliver the type of huge legislative majority Magyar just achieved and not the razor-thin one that Biden was forced to work with.

From new Hungarian Prime Minister Péter Magyar's acceptance speech tonight. This is the absolute BARE MINIMUM platform for any Democrat running for President in 2028.

👀 Oh. My. Gawd. Now we know why Melania gave that Epstein presser on Thursday. An interview with Amanda Ungaro is about to be released by El Pais on Sunday morning (and it’s after midnight right now in Spain). And on Monday, she will be on CNN.

Some days the world feels heavy. It takes extra strength to lead with our hearts. Today let’s focus on turning our energy into something meaningful & staying "fiercely kind” even when things get tough. Let's care for each other & make it a day full of love. #Jaye’sMorningLight

Replying to @adamkinzinger.substack.com

If Trump uses tactical nukes on Iran, Russia will not hesitate to use them on Ukraine, and that could open the door to an all-out nuclear exchange. Donald Trump has to be removed from office before he can use the nuclear codes to slaughter BILLIONS of human beings.

sound familiar? Maybe we should start referring to HIM (Kegbreath) as President and see if that makes the Orange Menace question this advice...

Matthew Gertz@mattgertz.bsky.social

Indeed, Trump’s ultimatum seems cribbed from a strategy Hegseth urged him to undertake in January 2020, saying, “What better time than now to say, we're starting the clock, you've got a week, you've got X amount of time before we start taking out your energy production facilities?"

Jews and Christians speak constantly and correctly about persecution. Islam is an Abrahamic faith. Same God. Same lineage. When a president mocks Allah on Easter Sunday and the churches and synagogues go silent, that silence has a name. It's called selective outrage.

The 25th amendment exists for a reason. This madman is the reason. This post is the reason. @SpeakerJohnson and @LeaderJohnThune, call Congress back into session today. Do your fucking jobs and defend America from this demented and deranged lunatic.

We are the frogs slowly being boiled. Can you imagine what you would think to see a US president writing this tweet ten years ago?

Trump says Iran has 48 hours to open up the Strait of Hormuz, “before all Hell will reign down on them. Glory be to GOD!”
