Obama: "You got the defense sec who is like a laser focused on important matters like the jawline & testosterone level of our troops, and livestreaming executions because that's how he thinks you cultivate that manly warrior spirit. How much time do you think this man spends in front of the mirror?"

Obama: "The one thing that the current president is focused on other than home improvements is enriching himself ... we've got a US ambassador shaking down a donor to pay off her credit card bills. We learned a Venezuelan billionaire wanted a pardon so he paid one of Trump's lawyers $50 million"

Based on his ads, John Sununu seems like a real d-bag.

Look at the shabby state and increasingly authoritarian trajectory of the country and ask yourself if we can endure 2 more years of a lawless Trump administration wreaking havoc with no check from Congress, then vote accordingly. This is not the time for a protest vote or purity politics.

Incredible. First Secretary Mullin claimed that DHS had identified 15,903 noncitizens on Nevada’s voter roll. Then DHS officials told a skeptical Nevada, no no no, that’s just people we flagged. Here are the names of 185 people we KNOW aren’t citizens. All 185 were citizens. DHS got 100% wrong.

New quid pro quo: if I do business with you and you want me to give your business a review, you must first get on my socials and tell everyone how awesome I am.

Any right-wing moron who has it out for the USPS obviously has not experienced FedEx.

I stand with Dr. Anthony Fauci …because I value EVIDENCE over conspiracy, DATA over rumors, and SCIENCE over politics. No public official is beyond criticism, but there’s a difference between honest scientific guidance and misinformation. I’ll choose evidence EVERY time. #medsky #publichealth

Why do the teenage mutant ninja turtles wear masks?

A tiny federal agency that tracks consumer product safety wants patient records from emergency room visits, including details about injuries that have nothing to do with consumer products, documents reveal. Amanda Seitz, Maia Rosenfeld & @dariustahir.bsky.social report ⤵️

I did it! I canceled my Facebook account. I’m free! Or am I?

Jack Smith: "I think we are facing an attack on the rule of law that is different in kind and scope to anything I've seen in my lifetime"

I realize this is a minor concern given all the corruption coming from the Trump administration, but it really bugs me that mainstream media is rolling over to FIFA by using the temporary names of stadiums (e.g., Boston Stadium instead of Gillette) simply to play it safe and not endanger access.

Trump’s “fools and lap dogs” SCOTUS insult is a riot. Trump loves fools and lapdogs, as long as they’re his fools and lapdogs.

Here's one way we can get rid of it. robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-get...

Sixteen years ago, the Supreme Court decided that corporations are people under the First Amendment. Today, sold-out politicians block progress on all fronts to appease their corporate donors. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

Trump claims he’s cracking down on fraud in Minnesota — while pardoning actual fraudsters. Over half of his 88 individual pardons have been for white collar crimes, including money laundering, bank fraud, and wire fraud. It’s all part of his pay-to-pardon scheme.

Mark Kelly is an American hero. Pete Hegseth is a drunken buffoon. Any questions?

Reminder that it's long past time to reform the Supreme Court. Here's how. https://youtu.be/RwxNnqy8YRA?si=U6gGIo8RF1KNYhYR

Federal judge, appointed by Reagan, in 161-page opinion today in deportation matter: "There’s the issue of masks... To us, masks are associated with cowardly desperados and the despised Ku Klux Klan. In all our history we have never tolerated an armed masked secret police"

A federal jury on Monday ordered a man who was charged in the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol to pay $500,000 to the family of a D.C. police officer who was assaulted during the riot and later killed himself.

The Watergate break-in (which happened 53 years ago this week) began the modern era of “whatever-it-takes-to-win” politics — blatant disregard of any and all norms and laws that interfered with gaining or keeping power. Trump is the logical and inevitable consequence. https://bit.ly/3QV2m4s

Pass it on…

Pretty sure Jeffrey Toobin shouldn’t be lecturing anyone about dishonoring an office.

apple.news/A3_m6PrbkTyC... Hopefully this puts a smile on your face.

What’s the over/under on how many times that lying sack of shit gets impeached this time out?

Managed to cancel my Disney+ subscription despite Disney’s and Xfinity’s best efforts. Took about an hour. I deserve a beer and some Podium points.

The Republican presidential nominee reportedly spoke from the heart as he called upon every member of the U.S. populace to stand together against one another.

"Vote for Kamala and you never have to think about Donald Trump ever again, for the rest of your life." Say it. Believe it. Live it. Spread the word.

TRUMP: If they can do this to me, they can do this to anyone. Yes. If you commit 34 felonies by filing false business records to cover up election interference, you too can be convicted by a jury of your peers via the due process of our criminal justice system.

I sense a pattern

Donald Trump was convicted of falsifying records to cover up a sex scandal that threatened to derail his 2016 presidential campaign. He is the first U.S. president to be declared a felon. Here’s what happens next. www.nytimes.com/2024/05/30/n...

Joe Biden's age gets a lot of scrutiny, but it seems we never hear the same about Trump, who's just 3 years younger and is showing signs of serious mental decline every time he opens his mouth. And his recent campaign appearances and rants are no exception. Experts are raising the alarm.

The anti-Israel folks’ only argument is some version of STFU. What a bunch of losers.

Protest Israel’s handling of the war in Gaza all you want. But if you don’t think Israel has a right to exist, you are siding with the bad guys. Do better. www.nytimes.com/2024/05/22/s...

Apparently the fact that you not voting means you're helping Trump is "vote shaming" now. Seriously stfu, grow up and stop being all "WAAAH NOTHING IS EVER MY FAULT"

It’s terrifying to think that the far left is going to deliver the presidency back to Trump because they can’t distinguish good from bad.

Sad to see the folks on here are just as reactionary and unhinged as they were (and probably still are) on Twitter.

Boy are there a lot of self-righteous idiots supporting Hamas terrorism. Hard to see it as anything other than antisemitism. If they framed it as opposition to Israel’s defense tactics you could at least find common ground. But they just want to bark and yell and watch Jews get slaughtered.Fuck ‘em.

I’m sick and tired of ignorant bastards tossing around the word “genocide” like they know what it means. Being rounded up and sent to extermination camps is genocide. Being warned to leave an area before it gets bombed is not. If your own people use you as a human shield that’s on them.

It’s weird and sad that Iowa republicans prefer an autocratic government to a democratic one. They should all take a civics refresher course and bone up on how to be a real patriotic American.
