He's not doing pull ups. This sissy boy is trying to use his legs to force his head above the bar.

The future of the Democratic Party must be rooted in investing in the American people — not Wall St., corporations, and consultants.

Otherwise, Trumpism will continue to use cynicism, racism, and distrust to divide America.

Thinking this is wrong and untenable isn’t radical.

Thinking it isn’t, is.

John Oliver sounded the alarm this week on how secret donations to presidential libraries provide cover for bribery. We couldn’t agree more.

It’s time to close the library loophole — and you can help.

Read this story and much more in our secrecy newsletter, The Classifieds.

Huge mistake by Trump to let the 4'10 freak Stephen Miller take center stage during his Presidency. The more people hear and see from Mini Himmler the more they are repulsed. Plus the ICE raids are horrific and inhumane.

Trump fears Bondi is moving too slow to prosecute his political adversaries on fake charges- with good reason. He's trying to consolidate authoritarian power against declining public support,racing up a down-moving escalator, as it moves faster against him.
He's losing.
#USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Trump Might Be Losing His Race Against Time

The president is gambling that he can consolidate authority before the public turns too sharply against him.

I am utterly convinced that this person is being held in some "black" prison somewhere, probably under Cheyenne Mountain.

Bari Weiss making plain she knows as much about journalism as Elon Musk knows about government. What will be the CBS equivalent of USAID?

Oliver Darcy @oliverdarcy.bsky.social · 2d

News: Bari Weiss just sent a memo to staffers at CBS News asking them to produce a memo explaining "how you spend your working hours—and ideally, what you've made (or are making) that you're most proud of."

One CBS News staffer puts it like this to me: "We just got Elon Musked."

"Trump never got over his zero [Emmy] wins for [hosting] The Apprentice. And for someone who awards himself club championships at golf courses he owns...the self-promotion is to be expected...

But...No amount of bullying could buy Trump a prize for peace, an irony lost only on the President."

Breaking: Trump has officially lost the Nobel Peace Prize.

Instead, the Nobel committee is awarding the leader of the opposition in Venezuela for supporting “democracy over dictatorship.”
