We could argue that Trump 1 was a one-off, a freak occurrence. But electing him *twice*? Raises reasonable questions about what kind of electorate would do that.

Imagine if Biden or Obama sent mass emails to donors promising to let them in national security briefings in exchange for cash. How the fuck is this traitorous psychopath still president? 😳👇

Global freedom declined for the 20th consecutive year in 2025. That's according to to Freedom House's latest Freedom in the World report, which found that 54 countries have experienced a deterioration in their political and civil liberties last year.

We need stronger guardrails. How is it that a single individual can push U.S. institutions and democracy to the brink of collapse while also holding the power to potentially cripple the global economy and upend the world order?

Trump has truly tanked with Independents. Too much attention to MAGA, not enough to Independents.

COHEN: The people you fired were experts on Iran, were they not? PATEL: I don't believe so COHEN: They worked in counterintelligence, did they not? PATEL: I'm taking you at your word COHEN: You're the director. I'm not. You should know the answer

Are there any psychologists or psychiatrists who can explain what has happened to the so-called "men" in the Republican party 🤷 there has to be some kind of mental illness that makes them idolize a demented pedophile in makeup and diapers 🤷

This is totally insane. A war correspondent just received death threats from online gamblers who wanted him to change his reporting on an Iranian missile strike so they could collect a payout. One bettor had $900,000 riding on the outcome. He told the journalist he knew where he lived and who his family members were.  This is what prediction markets on life and death actually look like in practice. This is exactly why I introduced the DEATH BETS Act with Senator @AdamSchiff. The DEATH BETS Act would ban contracts on assassinations, deaths of world leaders, and acts of war on platforms like Polymarket. This story shows exactly why that matters.  When you let people place million-dollar bets on whether a missile kills someone, you create a financial incentive to threaten journalists, manipulate information, and profit from human suffering. washingtonpost.com/technology/202…

The Trump administration reportedly steered over $13 million in no-bid contracts to the firm that organized Trump’s Jan. 6 rally. thedailybeast.com/jan-6-rally-or…

A three-year-old company operating out of a WeWork with reportedly fewer than five employees is being considered for up to $25 BILLION in nuclear energy funds from a trade deal Trump brokered with Japan. The company has never built a nuclear plant or completed a nuclear project of any kind. What does this company bring to the table? The father of its CEO donated $2 million+ to Trump and the GOP, and one of its advisors is a former RNC co-chair and Trump appointee. In this Administration, that’s apparently all you need.

Now that GM meetings are over, headed to Vancouver to co-host tomorrow’s @Canucksforkids telethon with @livmae10 Donation link: Canucks.com/telethon Every amount makes a difference

Trump can post whatever he likes. But there is zero, I mean zero, chance the IDF would conduct a strike in that location without giving CENTCOM full visibility. Trump knew (and approved). Now he realizes it caused a major escalation with Iran's (entirely unjustified) attacks on Gulf energy targets.

Same people who claim a Black woman who’d been the AG and Senator for the state with the largest population and economy and who’d served as VP was unqualified to be president are trying to convince us a plumber with no college degree should be DHS Secretary. That’s real DEI.

The Arab nations thought their “pay for play” schemes with Trump would buy protection. Instead, they get thrown into war and get to watch his deranged social media posts as things spiral.

Absolute humiliation for the Pentagon. An expert on NBC just called the US military inexcusable and caught flat footed. They are using 400k missiles to shoot down 20k drones and had to beg Ukraine for help a week into the war. Total disaster.

FROST: We asked Pam Bondi multiple times, are you going to come and speak with us under oath? She would not say yes. We want her under oath because we do not trust her. Why don't we trust her? Because she's a liar.

BOMBSHELL: Iran offered to give away ALL of its enriched uranium during peace talks in Geneva. The British thought it was a credible offer. Hours later, Trump started bombing Iran anyway. The US didn't want peace, they wanted war.

SFGATE's tenacious reporting on national parks seems to have struck a nerve. We've been blacklisted by the Department of the Interior. sfgate.com/national-parks…

Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg deserve far more criticism for actively enabling Trump. From killing newspaper endorsements to ending fact-checking on Meta, they abandoned all principles for access and tax cuts. They are directly funding the erosion of our democratic norms

🚨HOLY SH*T: Mark Kelly just showed Tulsi Gabbard a Trump email to donors promising he’d let them in national security briefings for cash. "Do you think (his) supporters should be able to pay and receive private national security briefings?" Gabbard: …
