Muslims didn’t storm the Capitol on January 6, try to steal an election, or overthrow our government. White Christian nationalists, racist militia groups, and rabid Trump supporters did. We need to stop pretending the biggest terrorist threat to this country is coming from somewhere else.

When it's time to pay taxes, billionaires cry broke. When it's time to influence elections, suddenly money is no object. It's not about what they can afford. It's about what they can get away with.

The level of pure racism that leads certain people to vote MAGA is the worst kept secret in America. Oh, they’ll tell you it’s the economy, or voter fraud, or maybe the deficit even. The truth, though, is that they’re just a bunch of bigots-and thrilled to have one of their own in the White House

Trump: "The Republican Party, we believe that Somalia bandits, third-world gangs, and jihadist sympathizers do not belong in Ohio, they do not belong in America. We got to get them the hell out of here." More "De-port! De-port!" chants from the crowd.

I'm a little unclear whether Trump's Russia diesel deal is even real. Russia's refining capacity has been devastated by Ukrainian drone strikes. Do they really have any surplus diesel to sell us?

Not that anyone needs a reminder but this man has the nuclear codes. Far too many people will just shrug this off or find some way to justify it. But Trump is unwell, incoherent, and a danger to us all.

Trump: "With the war, it's just artificial. It's a little bit high. It's a small price to pay ... let them take out Los Angeles, let them take out San Diego. This is a very small price to pay."

If you’re not from Missouri, you may not know that Eric Schmitt got his start in MAGA politics by suing public schools for mask mandates while their teachers died during a pandemic. The really strange thing? He never sued his own kids’ school for their mask mandate. He’s a piece of Schitt.

When the public finally learns the full accounting of the damage done in this war, it’ll probably be too late to hold anyone in the Trump administration accountable. But this is insane. And they’re lying to the American people.

CBS News Exclusive: New photos reveal widespread damage at multiple U.S. positions across the Middle East caused by Iranian attacks.

Trump's claim that he's a great "fundraiser" deserving of recognition needs to be unpacked. When he asks CEOs for money, they give it because they fear that if they don't, he will abuse federal power to wreck their lives or businesses. Let's not honor or commemorate that.

Trump explicitly vows that reconstruction & renovation of the Kennedy Center won't begin unless & until he gets his name on it.

Trump is breaking ground on his 250-foot vanity arch before he even has final approval, all while a veterans’ lawsuit to stop it is still pending in court. Construction 20 hours a day, for years, at the gates of Arlington where we have buried our nation’s heroes. Absolutely disgraceful.

As a child, I thought The Emperor’s New Clothes was just an absurd fairy tale. I never imagined Hans Christian Andersen was writing a 2026 case study in Trump’s mythomania: the emperor isn’t merely naked—he’s declared himself the greatest-dressed man alive, and his court is applauding.

Strong leaders don't waste their time looking for someone else to blame. They spend it finding solutions.

The climate crisis does not respect borders. What is happening in Nepal should matter to all of us, because no community is ultimately insulated from a changing planet. Our thoughts are with the people of Nepal and their safety. We have to care, and we have to act.

When the Indiana Senate refused to do mid-decade gerrymandering, Trump posted about it nonstop & got directly involved in taking out the senators who voted against it. But when thousands of people in IN have been without power for 2 weeks, Trump posted nothing and doesn’t care.

Reporter: Family members of service members are concerned about conditions on the LIncoln. Trump: No they’re not. Reporter: Has the deployment gone on too long? Trump: No. Not nearly long enough.

Who knew this many levels of hatred on my part were possible? 👿

Trump’s minions on the Kennedy Center’s board took steps to appease Trump with expensive renovations & add his name to the outside reading “The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts Restored and Renovated By President Donald J. Trump.” This could defy a federal court order. #blue

Trump doesn’t give a fuck about journalists. He knew they were sitting ducks with no security at his first WH correspondents dinner and sitting ducks on air force one while he houdini’d in that catering cart to let them all presumably die. Have you heard him talk? He hates journalists.
