Started on Twitter, left after Elon, went to Threads, now I’m here. Damn I am disappointed.

Trump has been given more grace for his outrageous behavior than Joe Biden ever received for even the most minor faux pas. Biden could stumble over a word and it would dominate the news cycle. Trump can insult reporters, curse, mock people, and go into unhinged rants and it’s glossed over.

Elon Musk was violating his visa when he started his first business here and very likely obtained his U.S. citizenship through fraud. Where is that investigation?

HELL Kennedy@helenkennedy.com

Fox News is reporting this is a criminal investigation into the immigration paperwork filled out by Ilhan Omar’s late father when she was a child 40 years ago. I actually think this is so nakedly outrageous it will blow back on them. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

If the republic survives this era, history will record the Trump presidency as the most corrupt, reckless, incompetent, and damaging in American history. Every new scandal reveals that the bottom is always lower than we thought.

This is what every democrat should be saying and promising to do when they win. And how I am voting.

AOC: “ICE is a rogue, lawless paramilitary and surveillance agency. It does not belong in NYC and should not exist in 🇺🇸. Abolish ICE.”

I sure would like to hear more of this.

Josh Turek: We need to have campaign finance reform to get dark money out of politics. I want to sponsor a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United. We can have oligarchy or we can have democracy. We can't have both.

JENNINGS: Let's say Democrats take the House. How sure are you that they would immediately move to impeach President Trump? MIKE JOHNSON: It's guaranteed. Probably on the first day.

These ads go in the same category as brazen, easily disproven lies after ICE killings. It’s not about persuasion. It’s a display of power. They could have passed them off as PAC-funded. They added “paid for by the U.S. government” because they want us to know they can break the law with impunity.

I'd like to believe this. But two highly qualified women losing to a rapist gives me pause. This nation has a deeply rooted streak of misogyny, & internalized misogyny directed at women by other women. I think we need to acknowledge, confront, & challenge it rather that pretend it doesn't exist.

Everything the pro-Trump billionaire Ellison family will now own: Paramount+ CBS CNN Showtime HBO Warner Bros TNT TBS MTV DC Studios Nickelodeon Comedy Central And more... With this comes the power to decide which stories get told, but more importantly, which stories DON'T get told. Shameful.

Taking federal money meant to help working families afford childcare and giving it to married couples so one can stay home is like school vouchers. Take public money, give it to the privileged who don’t need it as much, add a sprinkling of trad wife, and you have another scam.

It's Sunday, so I'd like to tell Republicans that being "pro-life" doesn't make you a Christian. And as it turns out, you're not actually pro-life at all. Instead of legislating women's morals, how about you develop some? #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed

Any Democrat hoping to get the 2028 nomination needs to advocate for expanding the Supreme Court. If we don't fix our broken Supreme Court, good luck getting any health care, environmental, or other reforms implemented.

On Sunday, parents across the five boroughs got a night to themselves while NY's Cutest enjoyed free activities with NYC Parks staff at select recreation centers. Free & accessible child care doesn’t just make our city more affordable — it gives parents time to rest, recharge, or enjoy a night out.

This past weekend, New York City launched its first Parents’ Night Out, a new initiative by Mayor Zohran Mamdani to give families four hours of free babysitting. It was a hit.

Thomson Reuters, which owns news agency Reuters, has signed a $125M deal giving ICE access to its databases of personal data. USA Today has partnered with Palantir to gain "actionable intelligence" on its audiences. The media should be opponents of Trump's police state — not collaborators.

Note which states are not on this list: WI, where he was just referred for prosecution for bribing voters, GA, where he broke election law in 2024, and AZ, where there are several lawsuits against him pending. He's an election criminal, and this should be hung around the GOP.

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear has the constitutional authority to temporarily appoint someone to fill Mitch McConnell’s seat. If GOP lawmakers want to challenge that, they can do so. This will be the first big test to see whether Beshear really is presidential material. I hope he passes the test.

Woohoo!

Platner playing games and waiting until the Monday deadline to file the paperwork to withdraw is totally unacceptable. No reason he couldn’t file it today or tomorrow. He has shown in every conceivable way what a piece of garbage he is. Can’t even get out with any decency.

Zohran Mamdani and AOC aren’t the main reasons democratic socialists are getting elected. Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Donald Trump and Mike Johnson are the main reasons democratic socialists are getting elected. Eventually, people start to realize who’s keeping them poor.

Buttigieg: We sit in a in a country that's got the wrong number of people on the Supreme Court, possibly the wrong number of representatives in the House of Representatives. And by the way, when you consider the disenfranchisement of the people of DC, we have the wrong number of states in the US
