It's a scandal that the president of the United States is out of his damn mind.
It's also a scandal that major news media aren't telling you that, loudly and often.

just saw a story about the second season of Three-Body Problem coming soon and I mean surely we can come up with a better TV system than "hey remember that thing you watched eight episodes of two and a half years ago? no? you don't? you can't remember the plot or characters at all? well we're back!"

“And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.”

The richest man owns X.

The second and fourth richest men control Google.

The third richest man owns The Washington Post.

The sixth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

And now the seventh richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?

Trump is now threatening to report NBC’s Kristen Welker to the FCC for “rebuke or punishment” because she said his endorsements have had “mixed results.”

He then calls on FCC Chair Brendan Carr to “take this Threat to our Country very seriously.”

Truly psychotic and anti-American.

We have become a wicked country where those in power do horrible, hurtful things for the cheap applause of our worst citizens.

Which jobs, exactly, did 5-year-old Liam Tadeo steal from the MAGA Republican cult, Stephen Miller?

Fourteen years ago, HBO's 'The Newsroom' laid out the truth about voter ID in this segment.

It’s striking how little the arguments — or the tactics — have changed. Still a solution in search of a problem.

History doesn’t repeat itself — it gets rerun.

Fossil fuel demand is still growing — but solar and wind are growing faster.
EVs are surging as oil prices spike.
The transition is happening. The question is whether we accelerate it fast enough to avoid the worst.
Speed matters.

Dolly Parton gave away millions of books to children. Donald Trump is only interested in building monuments to himself.

Dolly Parton spread love to many people. Donald Trump appears to hate everyone who doesn’t bow to him.

North Korea is good.
Canada is bad.

Coal is good.
Solar is bad.

Measles is good.
Vaccination is bad.

Child rapists are good.
Childcare is bad.

Pointless wars are good.
Universal healthcare is bad.

Anyone supporting the unrelenting chaos of the #GOP deserves zero respect.

I’m pissed. I turn 66 this month, and I don’t want to watch my country fold because a failed real-estate and reality-TV personality told a bunch of lies—and convinced a third of the country to follow him.

Whether it's a trade war with Canada or an actual war with Iran, the pattern is the same: Americans are paying the price for the President's choices.

In 1965, CEOs were paid 21 times as much as a typical worker.

Today, that number has spiked to 281.

The system is rigged and it's time we level the playing field.
