Clearly Hegseth should be fired. He never should’ve been nominated-much less confirmed-and his disastrous record belies his incompetence Problem is, Trump tends to double down in scenarios like this. And while Democrats might respond by impeaching Hegseth, there won’t be enough votes to remove him

"If the midterm elections prove to be as much of a Republican defeat as most everyone expects, firing Hegseth could be just the kind of highly visible change members of his own party (and the news media) will be demanding to see." — @paulwaldman.bsky.social

After the convicted felon and sexual abuser who got away with his crimes leaves or is carried out of the WH, Vance, Rubio and Hegseth will lie, whine and blame like Trump to woo his MAGA base. But from Hitler to Jim Jones, cults always collapse without the kingpins who concoct them.

JD Vance called him "America's Hitler". In a cult built on the personality and satanically persuasive lying of a malignant narcissist who put himself above anyone else, there is no effective successor. If Hitler had not celebrated his "winning" by killing himself, who would have replaced him?

Trump carbuncle Ted Cruz, shilling a ghostwritten book about Clarence Thomas while whoring for a SCOTUS seat, calls Clarence Thomas a “role model” for upholding decades of Republican politics with one goal: making it more difficult for minorities to vote.

@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social: "Ted Cruz was tweeting at me earlier about my book. And I thought it was interesting because I was like, aren't you a U.S. senator? He's just a pundit. He just podcasts and tweets."

170,000 pages. That’s how much NYC has now released about post-9/11 air quality, including evidence officials knew Ground Zero was dangerous to breathe. Those documents belong to every survivor, responder, and family still burying someone stolen by toxic exposure. #momsky#sheshed

JB Pritzker’s new Ready for the Fight PAC is putting at least $20 million behind Democrats, starting with GOP-held House races in Ohio’s 7th and Texas’ 23rd. Republicans don’t get to coast in supposedly safe districts anymore. Good. Make them sweat. #momsky #sheshed

Welles Crowther went back into a burning tower, wearing a red bandana over his face. He never came home. Trump's response to the hero known for saving at least 18 people: "He's become more famous than me." Galling. For my NY Fire Chief father and for all the heroes who didn't get to come home R.I.P.

What kind of crises do "conservatives" need to understand that climate science is not a socialist or liberal hoax, but denial and demonization of clean energy and resilient infrastructure is the most destructive and costly scam in human history? 🧐 Fujian Province, China 9/2/2026 #ActOnClimate

1. Elon Musk is spending millions pushing Americans to VoteSafe, which bills itself as a voter registration site but is actually a digital surveillance machine.

Turns out the state of Tennessee doesn’t know how much the data center industry is costing us. Our bill seeks to change that by pausing the tax exemption and implementing new reporting requirements.
