Will someone from the @NRA please comment on the senseless murder of Dr. Tamara O’Neal. Last week you told her to stay in her lane. That’s exactly where she was when she was shot.

I’ve seen countless doctors comment, but shockingly the NRA is silent.

Isn’t this your lane?

A senior state department official who has seen a version of the CIA Khashoggi report told me it's "blindingly obvious" that MBS ordered his murder

I can't believe this commercial that just ran on Fox News is for real

[George Takei @GeorgeTakei]

Kellyanne Conway is now on record saying the Jim Acosta video was not altered, it was merely "sped up" like they "do in sports." Actually, to see what really happened in sports, they replay in SLOW motion. You know, so as to gather the actual facts, not bullshit alternative ones.

Congrats Sheldon Adelson on buying your wife a Presidential Medal of Freedom! “He went to Jared!” 💎

@Montel_Williams @jwgop @Ocasio2018 She's charismatic and comes across as authentic, similar to Beto. That's why both are getting so much attention. At least Beto doesn't have to deal with misogynistic tweets like this one.

Actually they’re being caused at least in part by this thing called #ClimateChange. Remember I told you about how it’s also causing the #SeaLevelRise threatening #SoFla

The White House disseminated doctored footage, also disseminated by Infowars, to smear a reporter. This will sound quaint, and has been true for sometime, but Sarah Sanders needs to resign and should be unwelcome in public life.

[Mikel Jollett @Mikel_Jollett]

Hey MAGA people, just fuck off with your fake ass outrage about a reporter politely refusing to give up a microphone.

You literally elected a man who admitted he grabs women by the genitals against their consent.

I neither believe nor give one fuck about your idiotic argument.

The more one looks at the 2018 elections, the grimmer a Trump GOP's future looks. The more one thinks about Whitaker at DOJ, the grimmer the final 2 years of the Trump presidency looks.
Our task in 2019: Protect our institutions & the rule of law.
Our task in 2020: Replace Trump.

[Amee Vanderpool @girlsreallyrule]

I'm posting this close up not to bolster my argument that Jim Acosta did nothing wrong, because I think that's pretty clear. Instead, look at the way this staffer keeps looking to Trump for confirmation on each attempt. It's so creepy. This blind obedience is cult like.

DC and Puerto Rico should have representation in the House and Senate.

The NYT currently projects a national popular-vote margin of D+9.2%. The largest popular margin since 2008, larger than waves of 1994, 2006, 2010, 2014.

1994: R+7.1%
2006: D+8.0%
2008: D+10.6%
2010: R+7.2%
2014: R+5.7%

By historical standards, this a popular wave.

[David Axelrod @davidaxelrod]

Everyone is focused on the House and Senate but the big story tonight may be governorships, where Ds are set up to tip a bunch of states, with implications for 2020 and redistricting.

[Rick Wilson @TheRickWilson]

Poor Sam. He forgot to update his LinkedIn to say, "Steve Bannon's Cock Washer." It still just says, "Captain Eightball, the National TV Meltdown Champion, 2017-2018."

@patriot_conan @oprice @frydog this is so accurate.

[Peter Baker @peterbakernyt]

Jobs created during the first 21 months of Trump’s presidency and the final 21 months of Obama’s presidency:

Trump: 4,054,000
Obama: 4,477,000

So job creation is no better now than it was under Obama. What is striking is that the recovery continues so long after it started.
