I do not share John Bolton's foreign policy vision — at all — but when he said, in reference to Trump's weakness toward Putin, "They're drinking vodka straight out of the bottle in the Kremlin tonight," he had a point. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...
Trump is far from done telling Putin what the Russian leader wants to hear
“They’re drinking vodka straight out of the bottle in the Kremlin tonight,” Trump’s former national security advisor said. “It was a great day for Moscow.”

He fits in well with the shamelessness of maga world. What another shit stain.
Hey, Republicans, if you're still interested in politicized law enforcement and a "weaponized" federal justice system, can we talk about the Eric Adams case?

Wait, what do you mean you're no longer interested? www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...
DOJ order to drop Eric Adams case sparks at least 6 prosecutors to resign
Mass resignations among leading federal prosecutors are rare, but that's what happened in the DOJ's handling of the New York City mayor's case.

Tonight I have my first meeting with the cover designer for the followup to the book below.

Time is short, so I'm trying to figure out a reasonable timeframe to finish Proof of Devolution: The Long Hard Fall of Elon Musk.

It'll be the most bracing history of the man ever written.

In the meantime:
Proof of Destruction: The Musk Insurrection As It Happened (Book 1, The Musk Trilogy)
Elon Musk’s insurrection is the worst attack on our government since the Civil War. What’s being done by unelected rogue operators in D.C. is an assault on democracy more dangerous than January 6.

This entire "press conference" was as embarrassing and pathetic as anything I have ever witnessed. Does frump really speak publicly at all any longer? Musk is now WH Chief of Staff, Press Secretary, and, of course, the Boer-ing Afrikaner Presidential Personal Care Assistant. Frump is not all there.

There is a new documentary on Sly and the Family Stone coming out on HULU this Thursday.

I just heard this song and it seemed rather timely.

Using executive orders to circumvent Congress is unconstitutional, you say, Republicans?

Their brazenly overt corruption is absolutely mind-blowing. Musk to trump, "$100M for you, $100B for me, $100B more for me ..." with trump interupting musk, "don't forget Mr. Putin's cut. $100B?"

Musk sighs loudly and mutters "Oh yeah. For sure. Now where were we? Oh yeah, $200B for me ..."

This is so smart. @petebuttigieg.bsky.social , thoughts ?

And if you see this. A reminder. This is not Twitter. You can engage here and have thoughtful discussions !

We all look forward to reading your thoughts
I keep saying Dems need to do a daily briefing on Capitol Hill and fill the void, fact check the WH. Hire Pete Buttigeig and give him a staff to do this.

Today, House Republicans called a hearing about "rightsizing government."

I propose we start by firing the most dangerous man in it: Elon Musk.
