A potus should never be uttering those words/creating that image at a political rally, no matter what the intended nuance.

San Diego hosts more than 115,000 active-duty military personnel (with some regional estimates and related defense figures putting the active-duty and broader service population over 130,000). So he's OK with bombing our Military. This is who 77 million voted for. It's stunning.

I guess he couldn't put his garish signature on more efficient electronic transfers. Also, I'd be looking for fine print on the check.

He’s been president for six years, and his healthcare legacy is cutting coverage while offering nothing but a laughable “concept” of a plan. Six years later, the “plan” is still just empty promises dressed up as policy.

You can't get anyone in political media to say it plainly, but GOP strategy for several decades now has been built around the fact that its core goals/policies are *wildly unpopular*. Everything depends on a) polluting the information environment, b) cementing unfair structural advantages, & c) $$$.

It's about saving Ospreys. The Chesapeake has been the epicenter of the Osprey's resurgence in the US. But now for lack of menhaden to feed nestlings, Osprey nests are failing. Bipartisan group of Maryland legislators call for menhaden harvest reductions marylandmatters.org/2026/10/02/m...

The fact is Trump not only lost his war but it's the biggest L the US has taken at least since Vietnam. Our bases are destroyed & abandoned, Iran is emboldened, China is toying w/ us. Hegseth & co want to move on to culture war slop, but they got routed & we'll be dealing w/repercussions for decades

The other day, Talarico leaned hard into the case for immigration as a positive good for our country in a way you rarely hear from Dems. He has a real theory of the case: Trump's cruelty and barbarism have opened space for new moral arguments, a new consensus. 2/ newrepublic.com/article/2160...

Awful: The Supreme Court just let Trump's third-country deportations move forward. Still a shot at stopping them later but unlikely. Reminder: If Dems win power, they can and should defund both the white-nationalist Office of Remigration and third-country deportations, as I argue in this piece:

Jack Smith: "History teaches that the rule of law is rarely destroyed all at once. It's often weakened by attacks on the institutions and the public servants sworn to uphold it. Since January 2025, we have witnessed precisely such an effort."

holy shit -- turns out Jack Smith went to a Hawkeyes game in Maryland but Schmitt's team is so reckless they concocted a conspiracy theory that Smith was actually in Atlanta seeing a Hawks game and colluding with Fani Willis. Klobuchar points out to Schmitt, "you have your teams wrong."

The logic of collective resistance is sound. Absolutely infuriating that institutions, industries, even law firms caved to this convicted, malignant narcissist President. NO Kings & the people in Minneapolis have shown the way. We all have a voice in November to add to the “collective resistance.”

Please stop overestimating what a democratic Congress can do. The oligarchs are spending money to make you think a Dem Congress can arrest people and hold trials and pass laws without a POTUS signature so that you’ll be disappointed when they don’t do stuff they can’t do. Don’t fall for it.

So much of what we’re living through right now, from Trump to AI, feels like it’s driven by an explicit strategy of “we just do the crimes so quickly that we can’t be stopped and by the time the courts weigh in, they have no choice but to accept our crimes.” www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/it-s-the-a...

It gets worse: Dem FCC member: “The FCC just let some of the most repressive governments in the world indirectly control nearly all of a combined Paramount-Warner Bros.” An investment of this size “doesn’t just buy equity, it secures influence over what gets said & made.” apnews.com/article/para...
