Too progressive for my own good. Nicolle Wallace super fan. Lucky mom and lolly.

Tonight, President Trump offers America more deranged conspiracy theory and political science fiction about his overwhelming loss in the 2020 election. Let’s discuss. https://t.co/p2qEuEqea3

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days.

ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Donald Trump is mentally deranged. He’s a danger to the U.S. He’s a danger to the globe. He does not belong in this position of power—in control of the massive U.S. military—and he should be removed from office. This is not a joke. And his GOP enablers are responsible for abdicating their duty.

If you owe a woman 5 million dollars for sexual assault you also owe the country your resignation.

Michelle Obama: "What Barack offered this country was a mature president, was a highly intelligent president, was a selfless president. The hope and the joy that people felt during our administration had to do with the character of this leader. He made this country proud in a very unique way."

[Kyle Griffin @kylegriffin1]

Michelle Obama: "That's where the truth of this country lies. Not in grabbing as much as we can get for ourselves. Or knocking folks down to prop ourselves up. But in the overwhelming goodness, the relentless striving, the quiet dignity, that is inside all of us. Our greatest hope is that this Center can reflect back just a fraction of that light."

Can’t stop thinking about how Wall Street is celebrating Elon Musk becoming the world’s first trillionaire, while he single handedly eliminated humanitarian aid that will lead to the needless deaths of 4.5 million of the poorest children in the world in the next 4 years.

[Spencer Althouse @SpencerAlthouse]

this was so sweet. Stephen Colbert just ended his final episode of The Late Show while singing "Hello, Goodbye" with Paul McCartney. his family and the show's crew then joined them on stage before Paul turned off the lights to the Ed Sullivan Theater

[House Judiciary Dems @HouseJudiciary]

In opening remarks, @RepRaskin makes clear that no principled prosecutor would have brought these nonsensical charges against the SPLC—and that this case will not stand up in court.

[ANNE LAMOTT @ANNELAMOTT]

We will drain the blue reflecting pool the day he leaves, restore it to how it had always been, and fill it with clear fresh water.

[Molly Jong-Fast @MollyJongFast]

So let me get this straight RFK jr wants to ban antidepressants, make it easier for children to get access to tanning beds and is about to put flavored vapes back on the market. Also, he’s anti-VAX and he did nothing about roundup?

Northern Ireland has introduced a two week paid leave after miscarriage. Meanwhile in the US they investigate it as a crime.

[Dr. Vin Gupta @VinGuptaMD]

Erratic.
Can’t finish sentences.
Often confused.
Illogical train of thought.
Word finding difficulties.

Developing and worsening gradually over time.

The President is exhibiting all the signs of dementia.

[Steven Beschloss @StevenBeschloss]

This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesn’t belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.

[Fred Wellman @FPWellman]

Hegseth is a racist, a bigot, a sexist, and a white Christian Nationalist. He is the most dangerous member of Trump’s very malevolent Cabinet. He must be removed. The Republican Doormat Congress is the failure.

[Barry R McCaffrey @mccaffreyr3]

This is unhinged.

[Tom Nichols @RadioFreeTom]

Reports now that Hegseth oversold the war to Trump and underestimated Iran's willingness to fight back.

It's almost as if he's unqualified for his job. Too bad the Senate didn't have confirmation hearings; those would have proven his manifest unsuitability to lead the Pentagon.

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

Liam and his Dad came to this country seeking asylum. Asylum is a fundamental human right that affords people fleeing persecution or danger the right to request protection and legal residence in another country. It’s provided for by both international law (the 1951 Refugee Convention) and U.S. laws. Protecting their rights seems essential to ensuring we keep our own. https://t.co/LzvYCSt7aQ

[Congressman Robert Garcia @RepRobertGarcia]

Pam Bondi and Donald Trump may think her firing gets her out of testifying to the Oversight Committee.

They are wrong - and we look forward to hearing from her under oath.

[Matthew Miller @matthewamiller]

Trump's next AG will also behave dishonorably, and will also be fired for not being dishonorable enough for his liking.
