I’d say that @stephencolbert.bsky.social is (with the lone exception of @maddow.msnbc.com) the most brilliant, humane person I’ve encountered in broadcasting. His mind works faster than anyone else’s at a level of sophistication that is unmatchable. Genuinely a generational talent.

Avoiding town halls, dismissing those who depend on social security, shamelessly hawking Tesla stock, firing thousands of veterans...
They're telling you exactly who they are accountable to.

This is what’s happening. Trump isn’t doing any of this. He is their patsy. He’s like the Governor in Blazing Saddles. Put the orders in front of him, sign them, look at boobs and play golf. They are destroying the government on purpose. That is literally the goal.

I see Joni Ernst has turned her back on years of work regarding women in the military. Shameful. And totally expected.

This is a photo of Trump and his supporters in Waco with their hands over their hearts while a pro-January 6 insurrection anthem plays.
The screen is playing footage of MAGA insurrectionists attacking the Capitol.
This is not normal. No matter who is in the White House.

Imagine if 2 weeks before the inauguration in 2021, a top donor to Biden, who he had appointed to a top position in his administration, had gone on Twitter & said to a member of the public ‘f u retard’. Imagine the media response - and the pressure on Biden.

Trump’s Agenda is:
1. Leveraging politics to exponentially increase his net worth since 2016, which he has accomplished.
2. Deporting migrants who don’t work for Republican-owned businesses.
3. Cutting taxes & regs for billionaires.
4. Getting revenge on his enemies.
