No comparison. When Biden so much as tripped, it was a week-long story. When Trump has no idea where he is and drifts off mid-event— media silence. This isn’t the first time. What’s up?!

Sanders: These projects have been appropriated. They were signed by a president. It is illegal to rescind them. And to say to people in Vermont, in New York and California, oh, you didn't vote for Donald Trump, we're going to take away funding that was supposed to go to your state… illegal

Schrier to RFK Jr: You gave Cassidy the answer he needed to hear in order to get his confirmation vote, then as soon as you were secretary you turned around & fired all 17 members. You lied. I also want to be clear that I will lay all responsibility for every vaccine-preventable death at your feet.

We were very happy to give this scoop to @marisakabas.bsky.social's The Handbasket because it is important to support independent journalists who are doing the hard work at this time. Giving this story to Marisa also guarantees it will be in The Washington Post verbatim exactly 48 hours later.

EXCLUSIVE — The Onion has a full-page ad in today’s NYT featuring part of an editorial calling out congressional fecklessness towards Trump. They also sent a copy of their latest issue to every lawmaker. My report, with an excerpt from the full editorial: www.thehandbasket.co/p/exclusive-...

This is excellent and what right looks like. Smart, thoughtful, respectful leadership that brings the temperature down and builds trust for the future. And another reason why I love San Diego.❤️🇺🇸

Please repeat over and over: “Bending to the whims of a bully will not end his cruelty. It will only embolden him. The response to authoritarianism isn’t acquiescence. Bullies respond to one thing, and one thing only: a punch in the face.” —Gov. JB Pritzker

Goldberg on Waltz: "This isn't The Matrix. Phone numbers don't just get sucked into other phones. I don't know what he's talking about ... my phone number was in his phone because my phone number was in his phone. He's telling everyone that he's never met me or spoken to me. That's simply not true."

The FBI announced the creation of a task force intended to “crack down on violent Tesla attacks,” What an incredible waste of our tax dollars! Sounds like something DOGE should look into!

Leadership is doubling down, but GOP members are getting nervous about the budget’s extreme unpopularity. You can call your Representative now at 202-224-3121.

Pete Buttigieg@petebuttigieg.bsky.social

Looks like tomorrow will bring votes on a Republican plan to fund tax cuts for the rich by slashing Medicaid. So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.

“Hey guys…I know you said you were all about settled law before but can you just toss out this 90 year old ruling! It’s super getting in the way of our fascism. That would be great. Mmmm…kay…thanks!”

The Acting Solicitor General has notified Congress of DOJ's intent to ask #SCOTUS to overrule Humphrey's Executor—a major 1935 ruling upholding the independence of agencies like the FCC, FTC, NLRB, etc. fingfx.thomsonreuters.com/gfx/legaldoc... Because *less* independence is what we need...

Don’t normalize this day, America. And all its insane, twisted & dangerous developments. Especially you independent media folks that still remain. This is not normal. He is not normal. His actions are not normal. None of this is normal. And very little is acceptable by the majority of Americans.

Governor Wes Moore@govwesmoore.bsky.social

On Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Americans around the country join together in service in honor of the life and the light of Dr. King. We know that we stand on his shoulders and through acts of service, we put his teachings into action as we march on together.

I guess Hegseth was sober that day

Acyn@acyn.bsky.social

Hegseth: Typical Trump. All bluster, very low substance… he’s an armchair tough guy. This is a guy who said that John McCain is not a war hero yet he sought his own five military deferments

The relevance of the press has been declining for some time, but 2024 was the breaking point. The voters who decided this election do not consume any news from traditional sources, yet too many Dems continue to depend on legacy media as the way to talk to voters. open.substack.com/pub/messageb...

Nancy Mace is exactly the kind of opportunistic, attention-seeking grifter that is everything wrong with politics today. She doesn’t care who she has to destroy in pursuit of some clicks and eyeballs. She’ll claim she’s looking out for “wOmEn aNd GiRLs” when in reality she’s looking out for herself.
