@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com and @maddow.msnbc.com were brilliant tonight. I know how difficult a job it is to cover and comment on our daily news nowadays, but I hope you’re there every weeknight. You provide us the best antacid for our collective and persistent heartburn and our daily inspiration.
Watched @lawrenceodonnell.bsky.social’s #LastWord last night. @SenatorMarkWarner came through as a statesman. He should run for President 2028. He has the background, the skills and what it takes. One might say, “he’s another white man,” but right now let’s get a successful Dem in the WH in 2029.

Is @schumer.senate.gov going to wait forever to endorse and support @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social ? Even Trump supports him now! What a jerk!!

Republicans, you can forget the veterans. But they won’t forget you, come November 2026. You gave them the nails for your political coffins.
Lack of funding in state budget will shutter two facilities for homeless veterans
The Green Bay and Chippewa Falls homes for veterans experiencing homelessness will shutter this fall after the Legislature left funding out.

Wow! Sure they could afford it?

As Alexander Cockburn once said, when the medieval “doctors”—who practiced bloodletting for all ailments—lost their patient, they probably shook their heads sadly and said: “We didn’t bleed him enough.”

www.politico.com/news/2025/07... Could he fire the Supreme Court? I suppose the Conservatives there would say Yes to that too.

Mr. Crapo, GOP Senator from Idaho, said today that the debt ceiling was breached already on 1/2/2025. It was a lie.

if you hate john roberts
join me in my seething loathing of george w bush, the man who installed roberts on the court
John Roberts really is the exact antithesis of Earl Warren. Warren said the SCOTUS has a duty and authority to do whatever is necessary to serve the public good. Roberts says the SCOTUS has no power to help people or restore rights, only hurt them or take them away.

@cameronkasky.bsky.social was right on point about Democrats losing their way by ignoring young people. Democrats’ hypocrisy of supporting Andrew Cuomo who is under investigation for sexual harassment, while at an earlier time kicked out Al Franken over an appearance thereof is blatantly obvious.

@crampell.bsky.social did an outstanding job during her last 2 stints on @msnbc.com’s Last Word. She interrupts guests, however, most noticeably in the @Weekend. This is unfortunate.
June 22, 2025 at 4:57 AM
@cameronkasky.bsky.social was a hit at @msnbc.com this PM. He was very disciplined and didn’t speak out of turn. @crampell.bsky.social poorly read his body language, and ignored his cues when he wanted to say something. He was rudely interrupted. Why invite a sensible guest only to interrupt him?
June 22, 2025 at 4:53 AM
@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com should have 2 hours every night for the unique perspectives he brings and how he delivers them with emotion, clarity, and the profound human touch. He connects well with me.

@wyden.senate.gov Senator, please ask why your leader, Chuck Schumer, is hiding from DSCC donors like me. He thinks of me only when Dems need money.
I was only calling to ask how he was, if he wrote any strong letters, went to the gym to talk to republicans, or found out the price of avocados.

@joe-scarborough.bsky.social of @MSNBC Morning Joe needs to go or be restrained. He interrupts guests, humiliates @mika-brzezinski.bsky.social. He snatches the discussion from her and distributes to other men. Sexist and sad!
