Now you know why Trump and the GOP are so focused on undermining free and free elections in 2026. Please, stay informed and take action. There is no better way to start than by signing up for Democracy Docket. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Scott Jennings may be nice in real life, but on your shows his whole persona is “sneer”. Now he’s being lauded on stage by Trump and says that since he “owns the libs”, he needs a Michigan farm to put them. As an Independent Michigander, I won’t be watching someone that hyper-partisan. Ick @cnn.com

It's genuinely hard to express to sort of normal not politically plugged in non-lawyers *how* lawless the Trump administration is, and I think that's some part of the problem.
You sound like you're hyperventilating, but it's just a flat description of what is going on.

Trump has met this year in the Oval Office with the young leaders of two nations. One is a liberal democrat, leading a nation defending itself against a brutal dictator. The other is a brutal dictator. Trump much prefers the dictator.

While the U.S. grapples with an egg shortage caused by avian flu, eggs remain plentiful and affordable in Canada. There are reasons for that, including that egg farms there tend to be smaller.

What is wrong with giving a new leader a chance? A new approach, a fresh approach. Someone who has integrity, leadership skills, represents a key state, has guts and the confidence of the base. Time to put ego aside and screw seniority. This is my nominee.

They can’t handle it when a reasonable counter argument makes it inside the bubble. “Elon promised.”
Watch as Terry Virtz @astroterry.bsky.social says what is basic and proper… all contractors need to be treated equally, including @elonmusk, and see the @FoxNews host desperately trying to parrot state TV talking points because, the audience can’t see truth!

Remember how Trump said he "sent the military in and opened up the water flow" in CA? It appears he forced the Army Corps to just drain reservoirs into recently flooded farmland without telling local farmers or leaders. “In 25 years, I’ve never seen anything like this.”

The story that Elon uses to advance the idea that he was bullied in high school is that he was once pushed down some stairs. It came out later that he was pushed by a kid whose father had taken his life and Elon had been mocking him for it.
“Bottom line: Elon is not a Nazi but he did give two Nazi salutes… to appeal to the far-right wing of MAGA, to undermine Bannon.”
