Canadian plane dropping water on the Los Angeles forest fire. Neighbors helping neighbors. Thank you so much Canada, we are sorry our current leader is an idiot.
No one in that room saw a thing. After tRump lied about his ear wound plus the fact that he constantly lies, we will all need more information before we believe whatever the magat regime tries to pawn off on US about what actually happened tonight.
Two days after Trump posts a racist video, he now attacks Bad Bunny: "Nobody understands a word this guy is saying."
He adds: "There is nothing inspirational about this mess."
FYI: The billboard behind Bad Bunny read: "The only thing more powerful than hate is love." #SuperBowl
Yeah, that’s what is happening here. One liberal protester show up with a pistol, yet we are required to tolerate thousands of ak47 armed thugs marching through the streets every time a Republican gets his panties in a wad.
The problem with ongoing violence is that it prolongs the duel narrative. I’m not sure what the nat guard can do here, but it seems clear that Walz intends to control the guard without WH participation in the decision making process. scary times 2/3
the question becomes rules of engagement and ICE are loose cannons. wondering if Bongino just leaves a token force behind and land both feet in Maine. I’m sure Susan Collins is, “very concerned”. 3/3 sorry, overstepped the word count 🫣oops
Jack Smith’s testimony today wasn’t about politics...it was about evidence...limits...and institutional fear.
Under oath...he made clear the case was real. What followed revealed something much darker.

Disgusts me that I ever wore that uniform. There is no reforming this. These agents do not support the Constitution. They have violated their oath. Abolish, charge & punish them all.
The way the word elites has become devoid of all meaning is interesting. It’s a placeholder for “someone I don’t like” and it fascinates me that the people who use it most are wealthy, went to “elite” schools and hold positions of power. Look in the damn mirror. You’re talking about yourself.
This is the important part here. He isn’t Putin or Hitler. He doesn’t have that level of power. In 2026, don’t give it to him. Show up for the midterms.
Trump's approval ratings are tanking.
He's flailing on the economy.
He backtracked on the Epstein files and lost control of the GOP.
His plot to steal the 2026 midterms is faltering.
Do not let him gaslight you into believing he is all powerful.
I think it’s important to think about strategy about this Epstein vote. If they can push it through the house people will ask why it can’t pass the senate. That makes it a really tough vote for them. Couching it in procedure won’t help them. I becomes harder and harder to keep it down.
When it gets to his desk he is truly doomed, how do you explain away a veto, he can’t. Then we’re back to Nixon trying to draft transcripts of tapes and he doesn’t have dicks work ethic. This is death for him and he knows it. That’s why max pressure on the house is critical. 1st step is hardest.
Mike Johnson is the average Republican. Not as visibly gross as Trump, but just as evil. Good Republicans are cryptids, but only pundits believe in them.
Everyone sing along!
🎶Don’t cry for us, Argentina.
We’re like Canada, only much meaner.
And we gave up healthcare,
For your peso to be finer,
So you could steal our soybean exports.
That went to China.🎶
I hated to cancel Disney+, I love their content. But I’m not restarting until I see a real demonstration of contrition. Until they learn what democratic values really mean, they’re going to have to wait before cashing checks from me.
Jimmy Kimmel isn't returning to the airwaves because of "thoughtful conversations" with Disney executives.
He's back because consumers sent Disney a clear message: selling out our fundamental rights is not an acceptable cost of doing business.
This is Hollywood's McCarthy Moment.
This is the litmus test.
Learn from history.
Who will step up and fight?
Who will bend the knee and be complicit?
History will remember.
The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.
The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.
Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.
The list goes on and on.
Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
As trump pushes for military interventions in blue cities, keep your eye on 2025 races, Cali redistricting and NY mayor come to mind. 47 will push for advantage, but blue state governors are going to exercise many creative options to lock out the Fed from relevance.
Keep this in mind, 3 big elements that have the ability to thwart his advantage with the nat guard.
1: the Tiananmem square effect, just because they order them to shoot, do they actually fire?
2: the more they send, the thinner they are on the ground, his followers aren’t infinite. /1
3: the more they send to blue states to push the election, the less he has to defend red states. I’m looking at you Texas.
4: the harder he pushes the more enemies he makes. Looking at you again, Texas.
Do you know how insane and infuriating it is to live in a country where one party claims, with media and public support, the mantle of being the ‘tough on crime’ party while its leader openly calls for convicted criminals to be released from prison ‘or else’?
Hi All, Just sent out my free weekend update. This was the week that started with the press talking about what super sanctions Trump would put on Putin and ended with Trump discussing what Ukrainian land he will give to Putin. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...
Dem Party: We are spending $20M to figure out how to talk to male voters.
Mamdani: Save your money. I have +45 favorability with male voters & +73 with men under 45. Endorse me.
Dem Party: No way dude. Now—why is our favorability is -54? Let's spend $20M on wealthy consultants to figure it out!
