Trump has set free hundreds of fascist thugs who viciously attacked police officers and the heart of our nation's democracy. Elon Musk gave a nazi salute (yes it was) to cheering MAGA supporters.

Shame on everyone who voted for this despicable man. Shame. Shame. Eternal shame.

A magnificent man lies in state at the Capitol, as the country prepares to swear in a despicable fraud. As my best friend from college texted me, "The Carter ceremony was beautiful. I hope when Trump's time comes, they just dump him in a landfill."

Amen to that.

My 25,000 (and counting) buttons displayed on 450 (and counting) canvases is a massive historical archive. It is also art. And art makes a statement.

Here we go. Republicans plan to make big cuts to Medicaid in order to give more tax breaks to billionaires. The poor, middle class, and seniors will suffer. ARE TRUMP VOTERS PAYING ATTENTION?

The great Rafa -- Rafael Nadal -- played his final match today. What a gift to the sport. And I will always appreciate his support for the LGBTQ community, especially in this time when Trump and Republicans have targeted us with ignorance and hate.

The NY Giants paid Daniel Jones $160 million over four years, and he failed spectacularly. The NY Jets paid Aaron Rodgers $112.5 million over three years, and he flamed out even worse. The latter, highly predictable. Must be nice. Only in America. The same now with Trump.

If I were in charge of messaging for Democrats for the next two to four years, I would hammer home how Trump's policies are a threat to economic, social, and environmental justice -- explaining how each rightwing action will cause the vast majority of Americans will be worse off in each category.

The Wall Street Journal says Trump's choice of Matt Gaetz as Attorney General would undermine confidence in the rule of law. TRUMP HIMSELF has made a mockery of the law. Why not report THAT?

Emilia Perez is a stunning and audacious film, perhaps the crescendo to Jacques Audiard's 40-year career as writer-director.

Retired federal judge J. Michael Luttig, conservative jurist:

“For the first time in American history, an American president has corrupted democracy itself and the rule of law in America. And he got away with it, on Nov. 5, 2024.”
