Very little (no) pushback by MJ team on Lawler. I get that they want these lawmakers to come on the show, but a question or two would have been nice, especially on “narcoterrorism” excuse for murdering people on boats.

And Musk admitted that DOGE wasn’t effective. So he helped destroy good gov agencies while paying zero and taking billions. #boycottTesla

Trump’s Reiner post is worse than “beneath the office.” It’s dangerous in that it shows a leader who speaks b4 facts are out AND sees everything as being about him. We are not safe.

Yes. Exactly. This also happens with women’s autonomy. “Pro-life” women will finally see why it’s state-sponsored subjugation when they themselves have a crisis that calls for an abortion. Then they get it. Otherwise they judge and moralize.

Woods is emblematic of Trump supporters in that he only sees trumps evil when it affects him. Why can’t these people think about others? Trump came down the escalator saying Mexicans were criminals and rapists and 70+ million said “yeah I like this guy.” Until it affects THEM.

Trump’s Reiner post was way worse than “mocking”— it was delusional and narcissistic. He made the death about HIM before any FACTS came out. That’s dangerous in a leader. We are not safe with him in charge. Please don’t DOWNPLAY his post.

Yes and… I don’t know of one incident where a Democrat made the death of someone else all about THEM. Nor do I recall a POTUS acting without facts first. Pretty narcissistic and dangerous. Yet it’s all “both sides” and “shattering norms.”

ARS to ARS: Tariffs to protect a few domestic industries is how we’ve (almost) always used them, not as broad tax on the consumer and a magic wand the pres can use to punish countries and wield power. Congress sets tariffs. And tariffs are not going to replace fed income tax, as tRump lies about.

And he seemed so amiable in his “debates” (they were propaganda-spreaders), which further deepened the deception. He did not deserve to die, of course, but to be ignored. Any reaction to him fed him.

Agree with him today re Dems and immigration. If they had addressed it humanely and fairly years ago maybe we wouldn’t have Trump.

The book Ordinary Men by Browning (ordinary policemen becoming Nazis) gets into this Rami Malik topic really well: the banality of evil.

Joe: Don’t discount how much the pushback by we the people — the protests and resistance — has played a part in Trump’s recent power drop. Cover 3.5% rule on the show.

Wish Mika covered women’s reproductive freedom as fervently as she did before the election. So much is happening on that front and most of it isn’t good.
