Today, President Barack Obama and I read to a group of toddlers at Learning Through Play Pre-K Center in the South Bronx.  In between singing wheels on the bus, we discussed our administration’s vision for this City — one where New York’s Cutest have the strongest start possible.

The Tennessee Holler @thetnholler.bsky.social

“THIS IS NOT A CONGREGATION.” @tnsenatedems @senatorcharlaneoliver & @jeffyarbro oppose Paul Rose’s weird bill (obviously written by Israel) that mandates Tennessee will refer to the West Bank as “Judea & Samaria” Reminder: Rose (R) almost took a swing at Kanew for asking about it

My favorite part of going to the doctor is when he touches my forehead holding the glowing orb of light

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Q: Did you post that picture of yourself depicted as Jesus Christ? TRUMP: I did post it and I thought it was me as a doctor and had to do Red Cross. Only the fake news could come up with that one.

I spent a fair amount of time in and around Catholics and the Catholic church in my life and I've never heard anyone call the Pope a "very liberal person" before 🤣

They don’t know how war works and they don’t know how negotiations work—but they do know how grift works. Our oligarchs will make money, Putin will make money, and that’s the only "victory" they care about. As a war this is obviously a defeat for the US—had the US won it would be dictating terms.

JD Vance: "The bad news is that we have not reached an agreement. And I think that's bad news for Iran much more than it's bad news for the US. So, we go back to the US having not come to an agreement ... they have chosen not to accept our terms"

This week @ianlandsman.com and @aaronfrancis.com talk about why neither of them shipped this past week, how to surface features in an application, tweets going viral....oh, and they're starting a new podcast. Welcome to Token Town.

I’m actually not against Trump running a third term because current dems suck and getting Obama to run against him may be our best chance 😄

Can guarantee you that President Harris wouldn't get away with starting a war of aggression and then posting "open the fucking strait" on easter without being impeached on Monday

Garrett M. Graff@vermontgmg.bsky.social

There is no excuse for downplaying or eliding the insanity of Trump’s morning post. It is the most unhinged public comment by a president in US history and should be reported and remarked upon as such.

The President of the U.S. The man with the nuclear codes. And people are just going to pretend this is ok. In a functioning society, he would be removed from office within hours by his own party.

Constitutional lawyer here. I don't think it would violate the Constitution for the VP/Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment, but the intended constitutional remedy for this behavior is impeachment & removal. The fact that that remedy is politically impossible is a scandal and a crisis.

Chris Murphy@chrismurphyct.bsky.social

If I were in Trump's Cabinet, I would spend Easter calling constitutional lawyers about the 25th Amendment. This is completely, utterly unhinged. He's already killed thousands. He's going to kill thousands more.

President Trump: “Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP”

I wish Trump would go on TV every night. If you talk to Trumpers few know what he actually says. They only get info filtered. Seeing him directly is good.
