President Biden: "My predecessor, to be very blunt about it, did not do his job ... He didn't order enough vaccines. He didn't mobilize enough people to administer the shots. He didn't set up federal vaccine centers."

As a public defender, I couldn't even use the same bathroom as jurors during a trial.

Man, one of the guys defending Trump was a district attorney that declined to prosecute Bill Cosby THIRTEEN YEARS before he actually was convicted.

Classy, GOP.

Prosecutors asked to increase bail by $200,000 for Kyle Rittenhouse after alleged violation of bail conditions.

I had a client who used a cane arrive at noon (not 9:30AM) on a snowy day. The judge ordered a warrant and wanted to remand him (NO BAIL).

Two. Systems. Of. Justice.

Oh my God, Biden has a Peloton and wears a Rolex.

@LeaderMcConnell The most unfortunate thing about this statement is that it’s not for anyone that has ability to know the contradiction of it, but it purely to rile up a base that think rules only apply to their opponents and not themselves.

[Steven Beschloss @StevenBeschloss]

Any time Mitch McConnell—no longer Senate majority leader—asserts how the Democrats should follow the rules and do what’s right, Democrats should visualize his refusal to hold hearings for Merrick Garland and his ramrodding through Amy Coney Barrett in 8 days.

This is the best one I’ve seen so far fwiw

2021 is already looking a little petty and I’m kind of here for it.

[Gabe Fleisher @WakeUp2Politics]

The official @POTUS account now follows 11 people — all of them Biden aides or accounts, and then @chrissyteigen.

I RESENT the anger I feel because of the last 4 years

At least 80-something million people in the US right now

[Sarah Lazarus @sarahclazarus]

lost the popular vote, impeached, got coronavirus, lost the popular vote and the election, banned from the internet, impeached. what a run

[tim foote @timothycharles]

Republicans are bailing on Trump like the Malfoys bailing on Voldemort at the Battle of Hogwarts.

Glad you’re doing it, but you’re so late does it really matter that you’ve decided to save yourselves?

[Ari Berman @AriBerman]

Mitch McConnell says there’s no time to hold an impeachment trial 7 days before inauguration but confirmed Amy Coney Barrett 8 days before election when 65 million had already voted

[tim foote @timothycharles]

Some things aren’t as sweet the second time around.

Trump’s impeachment, however, is an exception to that rule.

[tim foote @timothycharles]

“More than half the country supports this current President.”

A truly delusional quote from a Republican congressperson about Trump, who (if my numbers are correct and I believe they are), lost the election by millions and never had an approval rating over 50%.

A member of my church was detained in a US prison by ICE and ended up hospitalized twice because of medical neglect, which included feeding him food incompatible with his medical conditions.
