Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good.

I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

Trump did this to us in less than 2 years and not a single Republican objected or stood in his way. Republicans want your vote so they can spend another 2 years not objecting or stopping their Dear Leader from destroying the Nation. I can't afford another 2 years of this Republican 💩 show, can you?

REALITY CHECK: Trump is ranting about James Talarico being a “vaygan.”

Except Talarico isn’t vegan. That claim has been fact-checked FALSE.

In a major shift in far right Florida, more Democrats have registered to vote than fascist republicans for the first month in over 5 years. This is the kind of good news I want to see.

Trump: "We have inflation totally in control and we've done a great job. The thing I haven't done a good job with is explaining it to people. We have the most successful period of time for a president in the history of our country."

BREAKING: A federal judge just dismissed the charges against former Olympian Davey Hearn with prejudice, meaning Trump’s goons do not get to retry their bogus case against him for supposedly vandalizing the Reflecting Pool.

Jesse is a sociopath.
Jesse Watters seemed amused and pleased by the prospect of Trump holding public executions. A couple of weeks ago he joked that a woman who was murdered on a mountain top might have deserved it. It's no wonder Trump loves Watters so much.

Why does he keep talking about this?

Schmitt said, “The only NBA game that was going on that night (February 3rd, 2024) was in Atlanta. So, I asked him if he was there.”

It's inconceivable to me how someone who lost in a free & fair election can incite an angry mob to attack his own government, (the very definition of treason) & be allowed to run for any office ever again.

Bc the last 30 seconds of this are the best, reminder that @amyklobuchar.com's dad was a sports journalist, which may explain her utter contempt for Schmitt mistaking the Hawks and Hawkeyes.
🤡 Schmitt beclowns himself 🤡

Schmitt concocted an elaborate conspiracy theory that Smith traveled to Atl for a Hawks game and to collude with Fani Willis, & flashed his "evidence" before accusing Smith of perjury. There's just one problem -- his facts were totally wrong.

Here's the whole sequence:
