Of all the things that never happened, this never happened the most

💯

Can't wait 👇

Absolutely 👇

Taken aback by this praise from one of best thinkers in journalism, Jay Rosen, who is trying to guide us through the current news wilderness.

This is just pure racism. Republicans objectively are campaigning on little more than bigotry.

Me at my performance review

Todd Blanche wants us to shove the Jan. 6 insurrection into a vault as ancient history alongside the Tilden-Hayes Compromise of 1877. But it was only 5 years ago that Trump tried to steal an election!

Amazing how the Attorney General doesn't even pretend the job of the Justice Department is to enforce the law, it's just literally "If voters are confused and our party loses, that gives us a sad and it means the full force of the federal government must be brought to bear to undo the election"

If you’re thinking of buying an Audi, don’t forget that an Audi executive appeared at a Trump rally this weekend to try to boost an American dictatorship. Make your car-buying decision accordingly.

The only thing more disgusting than that wheezing liar is the crowd clapping at every racist thing he says.

Trump says of Somalia that "all they have is people that shoot you all the time ... it's a shit house country"

Once upon a time, Americans took pride that people would leave other countries and come to the USA because it was so much better

this is not a person. you cannot watch this and think that thing sitting across from Mehdi is a real human being. it feels nothing and believes nothing. it has no immortal soul. there is nothing inside it. if you cut it open you'd find old fiberglass insulation and mouse skeletons.

the mother who married a guy already indicted for child sexual abuse, let him sexually abuse her own kids and then ran away with him to avoid being prosecuted.... that's the woman carrying the flag for the Republicans at the moment.

Trump loves that Vivek Ramaswamy ad exploiting the family tragedy in which his opponent was raped as a child. Trump says God deserves thanks for the ad. Only fake Christians could vote for these lowlife Republicans.

A legitimate president would answer reporters’ questions instead of demanding they identify what outlet they’re from and then hurling insults at them. But a criminal who ran for president to avoid going to prison would act the way Trump acts.

😳 WOMAN REPORTER: Do sexual abuse allegations mean nothing to you, sir? TRUMP: Wait. Wait! Wait wait wait. Slow down. Who are you with? REPORTER: NBC, sir. But they are very serious sex abuse allegations TRUMP: Quiet! Isn't she a fresh person? You're a horrible little reporter, aren't you?

Again, it's not just that this is appalling and indecent. It's that it reveals someone inhabiting a moral universe where even the concept of decency is so unfathomable and alien that it doesn't even occur to you to attempt a half-assed impression of how someone who isn't human garbage might react.

This is horrible as is the fact it might bother some who are ok with Vivek trying to benefit from the trauma of a 12 yo rape victim

probably time for someone to make the connection between Vivek's "familial child rape is good, actually" ads and all the domestic violence prevention funding that was cut when he was the co-leader of DOGE

Two thoughts: This false, despicable ad is proof that Vivek Ramaswamy knows he is about to lose to Amy Acton. No mother who loves her daughter would do this. Her complicity reveals her.

like vance, ramaswamy is a hateful, resentful orc of a human being, and the reason i think this will hurt him politically — where this stuff didn’t hurt trump — is that ramaswamy, like vance, is also profoundly unlikeable. he has no charm or charisma or anything. just a dipshit.

"Ordinarily, moving historical items within the building is a deliberate process overseen by curators. Hegseth’s staff dispatched its own team to relocate an Eisenhower globe. They dropped it...The resulting gash appears to be several inches wide." wapo.st/3WF2YQo

Hegseth’s staff broke Eisenhower’s globe. The symbolism is too much to bear. (And of course, they ignored the TRAINED EXPERTS WHO HANDLE HISTORICAL ITEMS. Because EDUCATION? EXPERTISE? WHO NEEDS IT?….im going to get some coffee…)

A sad but perfect metaphor for the Trump Administration. wapo.st/3WF2YQo

This is what "media capture" looks like.

Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff to Vladimir Putin today: “You talk so much about Trump being a humanitarian, you are a humanitarian also, sir. And I salute that. I commend you.”

This is a disgrace, and it directly impacts our military readiness. Some 1,300 Navy family members were evacuated from Bahrain during the Iran war. Months later, families are still displaced, separated from loved ones, struggling financially, and waiting for answers. #SupportTheTroops 🧵

I'd like to remind Trump administration that after Iran war started, Ukraine deployed experts and technology to the Middle East to help Gulf states defend themselves against Iranian drones and protect US bases in the region, while Russia provided targeting information to Iran.

Editorial: Donald Trump is helping Russia win the war It's already been said many times that the U.S., under President Donald Trump, was turning its back on Ukraine. But the past few days show something worse than abandonment: Trump is now actively helping Russia win the war. ...

Energy Secretary Wright is campaigning with Ken Paxton today in Texas. A reminder that government officials partaking in campaign events should not be normal.

I’m no medical professional, but even I know Trump is mentally unfit. Other journalists know it too, but they shy away from the issue. In this installment of my Stop the Presses newsletter, I assess Trump based on a psychiatry group’s 14 warning signs. The takeaway: He needs help, not power.

🚨 VILE: Vivek Ramaswamy’s new attack ad against Amy Acton features her estranged mother, who stayed married to the man who sexually abused her daughter at age 12, even after his arrest. Now even conservatives are calling the ad disgusting. The horrifying story behind Vivek’s attack:

someone should tell AIPAC we found the antisemites
