The most successful political propaganda in our time was convincing millions of people that caring for others and the planet was somehow a threat to America.

@Aetna your company is failing at helping it’s insureds When a patient’s caretaker calls over a week ago to notify clinical team of the Oncologist the patient will be using and NO ONE at Aetna updates this in your system so the patient can start Chemo now; you’ve failed.

Before the 2024 election, federal prosecutors were “full steam ahead” looking into how a prison gang in Puerto Rico gave drugs to inmates if they voted for a GOP gubernatorial candidate. After Trump’s election, the investigation evaporated.

DOJ demanded voter files from all 50 states. DOJ sued 31 states for refusing their demand. My law firm intervened to protect voters in those cases. DOJ is now 0-5. My firm is 5-0. Lesson: When we fight we win.

The difference between Republicans and Democrats is that when Donald Trump is accused of raping underage girls, Republicans only make excuses for him. But when Eric Swalwell is accused of raping grown women, Democrats say, “If that proves to be true, there is NO excuse for that.”

The Pope’s response to being threatened by the Pentagon? - Cancelled his July 4th US visit. - Spending our 250th birthday on an island where African migrants wash ashore. - Told Catholics to call their reps and demand an end to the Iran war. The first American pope. He will NOT be bullied by Trump!

Excellent, we’ve been on a bit of a Bluesky hiatus; would love to know what the Dems are doing to help communities like Yorkville IL put a moratorium on the hostile DC takeovers they are under? Optics are Jed Davis is the only one concerned. Might want to correct those optics for upcoming midterms.

Despite what Trump and his merry band of amnesiacs may be pushing, Russian interference is real, and investigating those who informed the public about it is textbook political retribution. We ignore it at the peril of our individual liberty. New for @msnbc.com. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

I'm on Kash Patel's 'enemies list.' Just as I expected, the retribution has begun.
New investigations of John Brennan and James Comey are just the latest examples of a troubling trend under the second Trump administration.

Two days after deadly Texas floods, the agency struggled to answer calls from survivors because of call center contracts that weren’t extended. This is so horrifying I made a bar graph www.nytimes.com/2025/07/11/c...
Bar graph showing the change in percentage of calls answered after FEMA laid off contractors on July 5th (over 99% on July 5, about 36% on July 6 and 16% of calls answered on July 7)
