Folks from other states may not understand this, but Nevada’s Senator Rosen is the classiest most patient, hardworking, and drama free legislator at the Capitol. You have to be a disgusting weasel oath breaker for her to speak this way to you. Mi Mamá calls Rubio, “el comemierda.”

Rosen to Rubio: "I'm not even mad anymore about your complicity in this administration's destruction of US global leadership. I'm simply disappointed. And I wonder if your proud of yourself in this moment when you go home to your family ... I know you know this in your heart."

Why isn’t China picking up the phone? APOLLO suggests it’s because “the share of Chinese exports going to the US has declined from 20% to 14% since 2017.” “In other words, more than 80% of exports from China end up in other places than the US.”

Elon’s Downfall

Sen. Mark Kelly is dumping his tainted Tesla. “Elon Musk turned out to be an a**hole. I don’t want to be driving a car built and designed by an a**hole.”

Captain Mark Kelly@captmarkkelly.bsky.social · last yr.

I bought a Tesla because it was fast like a rocket ship. But now every time I drive it, I feel like a rolling billboard for a man dismantling our government and hurting people. So Tesla, you’re fired! New ride coming soon.

So Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s family has faced some dictators before. I’ll bet on him. #ProudBlue #DemVoice1 #ResistanceUnited

“Since Trump’s election, many countries hoped that if they fawned over him, he would pick on someone else. We now know that this is a fallacy. Trump is dragging the world into a dark hole from which we might not crawl out.”

Here is my latest reflection. The attack on President Zelenskyy shattered the last of our wishful thinking. Many countries hoped that if they fawned over him, he would pick on someone else. Now we know: that we either stand up or get dragged into the abyss. charlieangus.substack.com/p/the-washin...

Fact check: nearly 70 percent of US money for Ukraine actually went to US defense industry to replenish the stocks of OLD stuff that went to Ukraine to use. Much of which we would have paid to destroy as their lifespan expired.

“Trump, the 49.9% president, doesn’t represent the popular will … We must not allow him to pretend that he has some sort of special ‘mandate’ for controversial policies and personnel.” theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Donald Trump didn’t win by a historic landslide. It’s time to nip that lie in the bud | Mehdi Hasan

In 2024, we have a new post-election lie – Trump didn’t just win, Republicans say, but he won big. He won a landslide. That’s false

Ali Velshi: Recently an X user asked Grok, “who personally spreads the most misinformation on X?” Grok’s reply singled out its creator, Elon Musk. Wow, that’s something. The platform you own and control identifying you as the worst offender.
