Liberal Democrat becoming more and more Progressive by the second. America did NOT understand the assignment
Remember "analogies" from college? Here's a new one: Trump TV is to News Media what Melania is to Documentary Film.

This is an absolute disaster from a national security perspective. Obviously, a lot on F-35s is classified, but a weapons-bay door and a canopy with radar-absorbing material are some of the most sensitive. Hard to describe how bad this is.
If they deserve to be impeached — and so many of them do — then the House should impeach them. Maybe the Senate won‘t convict but it’s still worth the effort to remind people that laws still exist and that Democrats still defend it. Also, as noted here, make ‘em sweat.

JD Vance is using AI to kick hundreds of thousands of people off health insurance. These are AI death panels.
This aired just the once in 1998 on the live SNL show for which McKay wrote it. It was effectively banned as it never aired again. I wonder why. MEDIA-OPOLY
ProPublica: In 2024, the FBI sought to launch a sweeping pay-to-play investigation examining interactions between Sen. Susan Collins and a top donor, records and emails show. After Trump returned to office, the investigation died.

Actually, the Democratic mayor of NYC meeting with the Republican President of the United States is *not* remotely comparable to the Democratic House Minority Leader meeting with the unelected, unappointed, unofficial grifting son-in-law of the president.
I don't want to hear Ed Sheeran *sing*. What makes you think I want to hear him talk?
Hot take: Dave Matthews probably not joining @edsheeran’s tour

Obama: “Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials from the White House press corps. You’re laughing, but this is what’s happening. It’s unimaginable that the same parties that are silent right now would have tolerated behavior like that from me.” Clip courtesy @meidastouch.com
Remember when Jake Tapper dug in his heels to defend Fox News when Obama dared to move them to the second row of the press room? Well, now that the roles have reversed, I'm sure that Fox News will -- come on, stop laughing, let me finish

Ron Filipkowski@ronfilipkowski.bsky.social · last wk.This is the Republican Party. Corrupt as hell, constantly starting wars, blowing up the deficit, giving tax cuts for billionaires, bailing out corporations, cutting health care, making everything more expensive, while serving up culture war drivel to distract you from all that.
When I first heard “I’d rather die on my feet than live on my knees.” I thought it was a bad ass choice. Now I realize it’s not a “choice.” It’s a reaction. Something happens: you stand up, or you cower. Sheeran cowered. Macklemore stood up.
