The question not asked in the Oval Office: How does it feel to kill children?

I’m writing a book about the devastating 2025 L.A. fires, which I covered in real time as I watched my childhood neighborhood burn to the ground. Firestorm: The Great Los Angeles Fires and America’s New Age of Disaster will be released January 6, 2026. www.harpercollins.com/products/fir...

"It was probably not the reception the president was hoping for with his debut at the cultural center he took over and now chairs — half full, half booing, and with a strong contingent of drag queens." www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06...

The Trump administration has no workable plan for its unconstitutional birthright-citizenship order, Amanda Frost writes. “Yet it wants to take away the best legal pathway for those affected to challenge the government’s action.”

“Rather than following a foreign policy that ignores values altogether,” writes @jonathanbchait.bsky.social. “Trump has a clear preference for values that are, in the American context, historically anomalous or—to put it in less neutral terms—bad”:

If you want the Supreme Court to decide a big case, just put me on an airplane.

President Trump is quite literally selling seats to a private dinner and White House tours to foreign nationals for $4 million+ a piece. Much of the money goes into his own pocket. This is corruption to the highest degree.

Another tragic shooting—and still, Trump and the GOP won’t lift a finger to stop it. They’re too busy cashing checks from the gun lobby to care about our kids’ lives. We deserve so much better.

Fear has a way of being contagious. But courage is also contagious.

It's clear that the Trump administration denied due process to the migrants it banished to El Salvador *precisely because* any measure of judicial oversight would've proved their innocence immediately. Deported, imprisoned, and condemned to hard labor—for a soccer tattoo. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Rep. Lawler has been cheering on DOGE's wilding spree and now his constituents are paying the price.

I’m proud of the fact this intelligent, compassionate, eloquent, young but very worldly congresswoman grew up and went to secondary school next to where I grew up (Yorktown NY, I’m from Bedford). 💪❤️ And she’s coming to my city Tucson! She will help save our democracy; let’s support her!

This what we need to normalize.

Announce you're running right away. Become the party. Force them to get in line or get out of the way.

Here’s a timeline cleanse picture of a dog who is also very upset at Chuck “lick the boot” Schumer (but mainly upset at the wind causing loud noises outside)

If Schumer votes for cloture, every Senator who doesn't immediately call for him to be replaced as Senate minority leader should be primaried. This is absolute betrayal. This is launching a civil war in the Democratic Party that will burn it to the ground.

“A vessel for all the worst elements of the American condition. And a cheap, soulless bully besides. We never have had such a cheap counterfeit of a president as currently occupies the office.” — Charles Pierce (Oct. 2018)

As another Trump-induced market crisis unfolds from tariffs, it's time we ask "What's the Matter with Billionaires?" I've run the numbers. Billionaires do better under Dems. So why do billionaires keep supporting GOP policies against their economic interests? See my latest piece on why. (TLDR 🧵⬇️)

I Had to turn trump OFF in less than 10 minutes 🤮 God Save Us All From Satan

Me too, Joy 🥺
