Or… Young men didn’t vote for ACA subsidies because they’re still on their parents insurance (thanks to ACA); they didn’t vote for the child tax credit because the burden and cost of child care largely falls to women; and they didn’t vote for student loan forgiveness because most of them didn’t go to college.
Dear @VP: You once wrote that, “It is misleading to suggest that impenetrable cybersecurity is possible; our focus must be on … detecting … any effort to harm us,” and we “can’t afford to be naive.” As you know, MAGAs breached voting systems in swing states & Rs blocked the #SAFEAct, which wld have required rigorous manual audits for federal races. Why have you NOT requested manual recounts or at least ballot images? 1/
Breaking: Scarborough is on the Rita Cosby MSNBC flight path
From Oliver Darcy's "STATUS" newsletter:
“In total audience, (Scarborough’s) Tuesday program averaged just 683K viewers, compared to the 1.044 million viewers it has averaged all year long, according to Nielsen. In the advertiser-coveted 25-54 demographic, the show saw an even worse drop. It averaged 78K demo viewers Tuesday, down 40% from the year's average of 129K.”
MSNBC will have to fire them.
As we continue to try to get the full truth out about what’s happening in this country, I encourage you to watch @cspan.
On yesterday a colleague had a bill in markup entitled “dismantle DEI.” In explaining why the bill was needed, multiple white R men argued that they are being “oppressed.”
I didn’t bring race into anything… THEY DID & always do & then they twist
history & dilute the definition of words.
Moment of clarity for my House Republican colleagues.
You have no mandate to enact extreme right-wing policies.
The people want us to work together to lower the high cost of living.
Full stop.
WTAF?! Four Georgia counties supposedly gave Garland Favorito backups of their Dominion voting system databases before the 2024 election?! And MAGAs also imply that they have analyzed Dominion databases in AZ, NM, & MI & claim to have found a “hard-coded globally used password” to all of these systems, which they published in a report, also before the election? And MAGAs then pranced around with the password on teeshirts, again before the election?! @marceelias@vp #gapol 1/ https://t.co/DAtTaZIp2W
I’m not exaggerating when I say this could collapse the government within a year.
🚨🚨 Musk and Ramaswamy just dropped their first "DOGE" roadmap, and it’s a disaster waiting to happen.
Here’s how they plan to dismantle the federal government step by step:
"This is the most disastrous spectacle that we've seen...certainly in modern political history. You have these freaks and weirdos and sexual predators who are in important positions." —@StuartPStevens discussing Trump's cabinet appointments on MSNBC yesterday.
The Good: Judge Merchan will uphold Trump’s felony convictions.
The Bad: Trump won’t be held accountable for his crimes for years, if ever.
The Ugly: The majority of this country doesn’t care.
@atrupar I agree. Of course. But it needs another half-sentence - it's not just a blight upon our country but it's also a blight on the judgment of our president-elect.
(See? I didn't even mention his aberrant psychopathology, serial criminality, or adjudication as a sexual abuser.)
It should be emphasized just how obscene the Gaetz nomination is. He's unqualified, unfit, and was recently under investigation for sex trafficking. He faces accusations of paying for sex and sexual misconduct with a minor. That there's even a possibility he gets confirmed as the nation's top law enforcement official is a blight upon our country.
Another late night in the U.S. Senate focused on some very important votes confirming more qualified federal judges. I am presiding over the floor at midnight - it is definitely must watch TV 📺🇺🇸
It's lovely that Nikki Haley is now trashing Tulsi Gabbard and calling her a Russian asset and national security threat from the comfort of her PODCAST and RADIO SHOW
You know, instead of withholding support for Trump and endorsing Kamala Harris when it would've mattered
America's richest 10% now hold 60% of the nation's wealth.
The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%.
Wealth inequality is eating this country alive.
Trump’s pick of a Wall Street CEO for Commerce Secretary is a win for the billionaire class at the expense of working people.
The across-the-board tariff plan is a distraction from the MAGA scam to extend tax giveaways for giant corporations and billionaires like Howard Lutnick.
NEW: on her radio show today, Nikki Haley criticized the nomination of Tulsi Gabbard for DNI:
“So now she’s defended Russia, she’s defended Syria, she’s defended Iran, and she’s defended China. No, she has not denounced any of these views. None of them. She hasn’t taken one of them back. DNI, Department of National Intelligence.
This is not a place for a Russian, Iranian, Syrian, Chinese sympathizer. DNI has to analyze real threats.”
