The frenetic compulsion to make every loss look like a win has “You can’t fire me! I quit!” energy and it’s deeply hysterical. But, it’s also deeply sad.

I’d admonish the people who love him to pull him back to lessen the humiliation, but there is no one who loves him.

Proud to be considered a low life by Donald J Trump 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Trump: "You have the radical left lunatics They're fighting us bc we want to stop crime. They're paid money. I guess they're paid a lot of money. But I saw that ridiculous march the other day. These people are not representative of our country. Not all of them, but many of them are low lives."

On Jan 6, MAGA insurrectionists smeared feces on the halls of Congress.

Today, the MAGA cult leader Donald Trump posted an AI generated video of him smearing feces on peaceful protestors.

Trump is not an aberration of modern day conservatism—he’s a manifestation of it.

Portland is “burning to the ground.”

The reality feels a lot different.
But how can you be sure?
A new website, isportlandburning.com
answers the question.

How?
Live cameras of the city,
fact-checked claims &

Is Portland Burning?

Missouri, scraping the bottom by most rankings, nonetheless sprints to the head of the pack in their eagerness to transform into a techfeudalism state.
Last year, a majority of voters in Missouri passed a ballot initiative enacting paid sick leave.

This year, Missouri's Republican governor signed legislation repealing it.

Do Republicans ever listen to the will of their voters?

Voters approved sick leave mandate by 58% but lawmakers are caving to lobbying by the state’s chamber of commerce

Collins *might* actually follow through with this, but not unless the Republicans still have the votes for confirmation without her.
NEW on MSNBC: Sen. Susan Collins says she will vote AGAINST Emil Bove's nomination to a lifetime judicial appointment.

"Bove's political profile and some of the actions he has taken in his leadership roles at the Department of Justice cause me to conclude he would not serve as an impartial jurist."

Keep trying to ramp up distracting outrage. We’re still not going to stop calling you a pedophile rapist.
Trump: "We're getting rid of the Johnson Amendment that didn't let the pastors and ministers and everybody speak about politics. Now you're able to speak about politics. You can say, 'I don't like that guy' and they don't take away your tax exempt status."
