Look at these men. They are ashamed of themselves as they should be. They are standing here while the president calls their professional colleague a “stupid person.”
I don’t care if you think you’ll lose access. You need to speak up. Decent Americans are tired of this and disgusted with all of you.

A country where the president can ask election officials to 'find' another 11,780 votes and not be prosecuted, while citizens are brutalized for exercising their constitutional rights is not a nation of laws.

All these inconvenient facts lying around to be found by someone in media that hasn't lost their spine.
A reminder: Trump 1.0 ordered the Afghanistan withdrawal, and Trump 2.0 granted the shooter asylum this past April. Trump 2.0 also dismantled the joint terrorism task force, and gutted our national security apparatus.

I grew up on all those US TV shows featuring holier-than-thou young lawyers crowing about the sacrosanct nature of the US Constitution.
It's clear that the Constitution is meaningless to enough people to allow this jackass to ignore it as he wishes.
The document has lost its hallowed veneer.

I swear to christ, he's the ONLY former Republican with any remaining honor.
Everyone (esp media) pay attention. In 2021 almost every Republican attacked the Biden administration and State dept for being too slow in approving Afghanistan special visas as Afghanistan fell.
Now they are attacking Biden for doing what they asked him to do.

Because West Virginia national guard absolutely shouldn't have been there, the administration reaction will be that much more extreme to head off those questions.
REPORTER: There are people upset with the president, believing the National Guard members shouldn't have been there
PIRRO: I don't even wanna talk about whether they should've been there. We ought to kiss the ground and thank God that the president said it's time to bring in more law enforcement

This is the first Thanksgiving for Sophie & Colin Hortman without their parents, Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and Mark Hortman who were assassinated along with the family dog in an act of political murder. National guards troops were not deployed to the state in response.

Almost every day the fascist stories are accompanied with stories about record anxiety and stress and uncertainty and loneliness and hardly anyone wants to connect the obvious dots.
Fascism is a collective breakdown. People are struggling and there has to be relief.

It's a testament to the widespread incompetence of the Trump administration that the Secretary of Transportation, Sean Duffy, is preoccupied with what passengers wear on planes rather than how many air traffic controllers there are to keep them safe, even if not in bespoke suits.

The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing “forever chemicals” and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.
The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.
Where is the MAHA outcry?

Marco hates the Cuban dictatorship with a passion.

I never really thought I would see the day where Marco Rubio became Putin's little side bitch. But, here we are.
