Obama: “What if I sent the National Guard into Texas and said I don’t care what Governor Abbott says… and just kind of took over?”

Imagine that. Fox would’ve had a 96-hour meltdown, 12 panels, and a countdown to “Tyranny Day.”

But when Trump does it? Silence louder than outrage.

The collapse of the Conger ice shelf in Antarctica received just 20 seconds of U.S. TV coverage this morning: a Sky News simulcast on MSNBC. The anchor did not mention climate change.

This news brief was followed by a 3-minute segment on Prince William's visit to the Bahamas

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Can journalists please not pretend it’s normal for a US Senator to declare that the Supreme Court was wrong to legalize interracial marriage, he’s OK w/it being illegal again, his “new” statement not walking anything back during a SCOTUS nomination that he’d be voting on? Thanks.

A sequence from Jackson's hearing that highlights a deep problem of our politics

1 Graham smears Jackson as aiding child pornographers
2 Durbin debunks Graham's claims with context and facts
3 Graham storms out

Good faith arguments won't persuade bad faith operators like Graham

Jared and Ivanka Trump made up to $640 million in the White House… how exactly is Hunter Biden’s laptop relevant to President Joe Biden, now?

[Dan Price @DanPriceSeattle]

if you're not giving your employees a pay raise beyond inflation/cost of living growth, you're giving them a pay cut.

I know this one!

Because as a whole, Americans don’t understand how anything works — particularly anything connected to a multilateral process.

Also, a good portion of the media does a poor job explaining how gas prices work.

Lindsey Graham: They didn’t do this on Trump’s watch bc he would’ve kicked their ass

Trump believed Putin over the FBI, wanted to leave NATO, destroyed our alliances, blackmailed & disarmed Ukraine, welcomed Putin’s election interference

He didn’t kick Putin’s ass. He KISSED it

Rep. McGovern after McCarthy finishes speaking on House floor: "I'm not going to be lectured by someone who takes their marching orders from Donald Trump, who said Putin's invasion of Ukraine was a genius and savvy move."

Shall we Google Ron Johnson and Russia?

[Dan Rather @DanRather]

I wouldn't underestimate people fighting for their land. There will be horrific bloodshed and loss. But one of the invariable lessons of would-be empires is that it's damn difficult to be an occupier. And it doesn’t seem like anyone in Ukraine will fold without a helluva fight.

[Dan Rather @DanRather]

I pray for all those in harm’s way. I pray for all who desperately yearn for peace. I pray for some way out with a minimal loss of life. I pray for hope, and the wisdom of our leaders in a time of peril.

The moral arc of the universe is not going to bend itself

[Dan Rather @DanRather]

A lot of people are quoting Dr. King today to justify actions that are an insult to his legacy. If he were alive today, these same hypocrites would be vilifying him on Fox News.

[Mara Gay @MaraGay]

This one feels right today:

"In the end we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends." Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

I may not agree with Liz Cheney on policy issues, but she is one brave woman.

[Andy Behrman @electroboyusa]

Shut down Fox News for their involvement in the Insurrection.
