It really is amazing to listen to a guy who faked bone spurs to avoid serving in the military denigrate combat veterans of our allies while also using “we” when referencing the historical sacrifices and bravery of our own soldiers.

I love PBS. Today I watched Ken Burns Statue of Liberty, with the good and the difficult of the US, Rick Steve’s show on the rise of fascism, and Peter Paul and Mary’s fight for freedom. Keep going PBS!

"Trump lost against the Maine governor. He lost against Perkins Coie. He loses 80% of cases in court. Which makes those who’ve capitulated look that much more foolish, because if they’d just fought back, they would've retained what they thought they'd lose and their dignity would still be intact."

Trump spent the entire campaign saying that tariffs are the “most beautiful” thing ever. Why doesn’t he want Amazon to show them off?

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

REPORTER: Amazon will soon display a number next to the price of each product that shows how much the Trump tariffs are adding. Isn't that a perfect demonstration that it's the American consumer who is paying for these policies? LEAVITT: This is a hostile and political act by Amazon.

If the case against Kilmar Abrego Garcia is so iron clad and simple, then it ought to be very easy to prove that by bringing him back, giving him due process, and winning in court.

Good morning and Happy Saturday to everyone who agrees that if playing golf with the Saudis is more important to you than honoring our dead soldiers, or dealing with the financial crisis YOU started, you don't deserve to be President. RESIGN, trump. You piece of shit.

The White House admits they sent an innocent father of three to the prison in El Salvador but they are still fighting to make sure he doesn’t come home. The definition of evil.

As that little old lady, thank you

Someone explain to me why it's illegal to give an old lady a bottle of water as she's waiting on line for hours in the sun to vote, but it's totally cool for an ultra-billionaire to bribe voters with million dollar checks in Wisconsin.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying. They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks. From WCVB: youtu.be/PuFIs7OkzYY

Oh my God. What a horrible man. Don’t answer the phone if I don’t get my money

Trump’s Commerce Secretary just said seniors shouldn’t “call and complain” if they stop getting their Social Security checks: “A fraudster always makes the loudest noise screaming and complaining.”

Dems need to open "The Office of the Opposition Party" and pick a prominent Dem to conduct DAILY press briefings and allow ALL news outlets access. Run it just like a White House press briefing, keep it short and have frequent guest speakers to make short concise presentations.
