Ex-Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura: “We’re a 3rd world country now. I know. I’ve been to ‘em. I spent 17 months in SE Asia while the draft dodger was playing golf… that’s what happens in a dictatorship. In comes the military. That’s what’s happening here.” 🇺🇸

Maher: "[People] just think the far left has gone so nutty on so many issues."

Milei’s cuts just forced Argentina into a massive recession.

The dollar is literally stronger than any point in Trump’s presidency right now.

Do you have any other stats you pulled out of your ass that you’d like to discuss?

[Angry Staffer @Angry_Staffer]

Republicans: We’re going to cut $3 trillion in spending!

So… you’re just gonna cut roughly 10% of the GDP out of the economy and expect that to be a… good thing?

Someone wanna break that down for me?

[Angry Staffer @Angry_Staffer]

Couple things:

Responsibly cutting spending is not at all toxic, and that should be the goal.

Vivek’s idea of cutting employees by how their social security number ends or by arbitrarily removing entire departments is not only toxic, it’s fucking moronic.

I didn’t have MTG threatening to expose Republicans on my bingo card.

What kind of convoluted, pretzel-brain bullshit is this?

If the US was invading Mexico, I would fully expect Mexico to use any weapons they had at their disposal.

If Russia doesn’t want to be bombed, the simple answer is to get the fuck out of Ukraine.

The two sources agreed with Joe and Mika's impression of the situation – namely, that the incoming Trump admin could use its wide-ranging powers to punish people deemed enemies. Others at MSNBC are not so sure. Here's my story about the internal debate >> https://t.co/Xmdy7JaOB7

According to two sources with direct knowledge of the matter, Scarborough and Brzezinski were credibly concerned that they could face governmental and legal harassment from the incoming Trump administration. https://t.co/YnVTAIBkjV

Some good news, Democratic candidate Janelle Bynum has just defeated incumbent house republican Lori Chavez-DeRemer in Oregon’s 5th District and has flipped that seat from red to blue. 💙👏

Rep Abigail Spanberger (D-VA) to @CBSNews on Trump's director of nat'l intelligence selection Tulsi Gabbard:

"She has a strong record of pushing literal Russian propaganda. She traffics in conspiracy theories. She has met with Bashar al-Assad shortly after he used chemical weapons on his own civilian population"

WATCH: “There was another person who tried to raise concerns about the health of the food we feed our children…”

CNN’s @abbydphillip shows a supercut of how Hannity and other Republicans attacked Michelle Obama for what they’re now turning RFK Jr. into a hero for.

[Jay Bookman @jaysbookman]

This is a lie.
AP is reporting why the National Guard chose to remove Hegseth from the force in 2021 on grounds he might be an extremist and couldn't be trusted.
A valid question, given that he's been nominated for Defense Secretary, right Erick?

Maybe it’s just me, but I’m pretty disappointed and frankly quite angry at how Democrats are literally just sitting by and letting an incoming dictatorship take over all for the sake of status quo and protecting the political norms that no longer exist.

[Ricky Davila @TheRickyDavila]

American state media are seeing record losses in viewership and they deserve it considering the role they’ve played in normalizing a dictator and his plan to destroy US democracy.
