Folks, don't even engage in the bad-faith arguments and spin of the right-wing when it comes to the Minneapolis shooter. You don't have to entertain their transphobia. It's all bullshit distraction and hate. We've come to the point where we can say, "F Off."

Cost of Trump's D.C. Occupation: $1.1M per day. Cost to operate public housing for D.C.'s entire homeless population: $169,226 per day. It's not about what this country can or canโ€™t afford. Itโ€™s about priorities.

I genuinely think part of the current political dynamic is that a lot of Dems -- especially your typical educated, affluent city-dwellers -- simply can't believe what's going on. Even though it's right there on the TV, right there in the streets, it's hard to shake the feeling of unreality.

Kristi Noem says the administration is "going from city to city around this country and pressuring these politicians to get on board with keeping their people safe. What is going to be the story here in Washington can happen in Chicago, Boston, San Francisco ... "

They are sending soldiers into cities to prepare to intimidate people at the polls next year. They gerrymander because they canโ€™t win on policy. They intimidate because even gerrymandering wonโ€™t work at this point.

Apparently, no one seems particularly bothered, but for the past few days, Trump has been talking repeatedly about being a dictator. If Americans donโ€™t want that, the window to stop him is closing quickly.

๐ŸšจBREAKING: Trump just announced at his cabinet meeting that they'll seek the death penalty for anyone killing someone in the Capitol building. Families of the police officers who died at the Jan 6 insurrection and saw their murderers walking free would like to have a word.

We've seen terrific pushback by Dem governors. Pritzker is leading the way, but Walz and Moore have come out swinging too and even Hochul has found a bit of a spine. Other issues aside, Newsom's social media game is strong and showing results. There's a popular model here for congressional Dems.

Brandon Friedman@brandonfriedman.bsky.social

I just do not understand the general reaction to Trump by Democrats. Pritzker throws one punch and he's clearly freaked out. Standing up to bullies has been a thing for thousands of years for a reason. It works. And yet! Democrats remain in a defensive crouch.

Krasner: So, if what you have is a group of ICE agents, or even the military, coming into Philadelphia and committing crimesโ€”assaults that are illegal, kidnapping, unlawful restraint, obstruction of the administration of justiceโ€”they can be prosecuted.

Trump doesn't have โ€œconflicts of interestโ€ anymore. A โ€œconflict of interestโ€ sounds like an unfortunate situation where Trump might choose his own interests over the nationโ€™s. But Trump isnโ€™t conflicted about anything. He's the most corrupt president in American history.

Trump canโ€™t handle a crisis of any kind, because he is not a leader. Whether it be a plane crash or a pandemic, he will let us down and then pass the blame. Join @therickwilson.bsky.social and @mayaonstage.bsky.social on this weekโ€™s episode of The Breakdown:

So, trump is jacking up the prices on Americans with his idiotic 25% tariffs that CONSUMERS pay, but hey, at least you got to openly show your hate of immigrants and got Black History Month, Women's Month, and Pride Month events canceled, so there's that. Hateful jackasses.

Donald Trump is an incredibly incompetent leader, a liar and a vile racist who lacks integrity. His press conference was full of egregious lies and embarrassing statements. Blaming Pete, Biden and DEI for his negligence doesnโ€™t change the truth. This is on Trump & his unqualified administration.

REALITY-CHECK for TRUMP, VANCE and JOHNSON: "Wanting a child born is pro-birth. Wanting a child fed, housed, educated with parents who earn a living wage is pro-life!"

Let's not forget Gavin Newsom, who is the biggest thorn of them all in the orange monster's side.

Democrats who want to be relevant and have a future with the party, look at AOC, Jamie Raskin, Jasmine Crockett, Senators Van Hollen and even Murphy right now. They're the ones calling it out, refusing to bend the knee, and reflecting the righteous anger of America against the broligarchy.
