Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.

unreal -- Fox News brought in a journalist from Russia as part of a panel, but he's being too hard on Putin and Trump, so host Will Cain has to step in and toe the Kremlin/MAGA line

There's been so much publicity about the now-Oscar-winning doc No Other Land being unable to find a U.S. distributor (which is appalling) that some people may not realize it's currently on 100 screens here. In Manhattan you can see it at Film Forum; in Brooklyn it's at Alamo Drafthouse.

Need more $ for tax cuts for billionaires? Cut funding for cancer research.

Need a few extra bucks for a corporate cash grab? Cut Special Education.

"The administration's stance is that by electing him president, the country gave Trump total authority to do anything he’d like. But that justification renders Congress superfluous. Why go through the charade of making policy and negotiating budgets if POTUS can just ignore laws when he wants to?"
Trump and his lawyers embrace the logic of dictatorship
