Liberal talking head (co-host of The Five on Fox News) and excellent mom if I do say so myself. Democracy enthusiast. Perusing the blue skies.
The Epstein files aren’t getting spun into a “Democratic hoax.” Nobody’s buying it. Trump is at minus 39 approval on his handling of the files, and even Republicans are split.
The Republican Party is trying to make excuses. They are failing.

The Administration is finally admitting the truth: tariffs are taxes, and the American people are suffering from rising costs.
Between affordability to the election losses to the Epstein files, this has been a terrible couple of weeks for Trump and the MAGA movement.

Yes, Trump got booed at the Commanders game.
But the real story is 2025’s wake-up call: Latino men swung, Black men returned to baseline, and voters who backed Trump in 2024 flipped blue.
Democrats are adjusting and meeting the moment while Republicans are using the same tired talking points.

Tuesday night was a total repudiation of Trumpism. Democrats are showing what a real big-tent party looks like: Spanberger to Mamdani. That’s how you build a majority.

From Virginia to New Jersey to Georgia, Democrats dominated across the country last night.
Republicans keep pretending everything’s fine and that they can just call us socialists. The real story voters rejecting extremism, demanding action on cost of living, and flipping seats everywhere.

It continues to be the height of embarrassment that our allies know that Trump is made happy if you treat him like a toddler playing dress-up and give him the crown that he covets or have a merch stand with his branding.

With great power comes great responsibility. Republicans are in charge right now. They may not have 60 votes, but they hold the gavel, and that means it’s on them to negotiate.
You cannot keep the government closed, refuse to talk, and then blame Democrats for the mess you created.

Senator Slotkin is right: let’s just focus on winning again. Democrats need to get serious and ruthless about winning seats, not just what makes us feel good.

Donald Trump is building a ballroom twice the size of the White House. He says it’s “his money,” but it’s really from companies chasing favors. Meanwhile, farmers can’t sell soybeans and the government’s shut down. This isn’t what Americans voted for.

Donald Trump promised ‘total respect’ for the White House.
Then he turned the Rose Garden into something that looks like the outdoor seating area for a place you have chicken tenders and fries.
Total respect indeed.

The government has killed 32 people in 7 strikes with no evidence they were traffickers. The admiral leading the mission quit. If we had proof, they’d face a court, not a drone.
The law still applies, even to suspected drug traffickers, and right now, the Administration’s story isn’t adding up.

No Kings Day was peaceful with millions marching. Democrats are getting increasingly excited and the protests are helping. This is just a test run for Virginia and New Jersey in two weeks.

America doesn’t have a king. But Trump acts like one—ignoring the Constitution, detaining citizens without due process, and attacking the rule of law.
That's what tomorrow's No Kings Day protest is about.

Bernie and AOC made clear that they want MAGA to have healthcare as much as they want Democrats to have healthcare.
That's what they were there to talk about at this week's CNN town hall, not a primary challenge.

Remember when this was just “one narco-terrorist boat”? Now it’s multiple strikes, foreign nationals dead, and no oversight. At what point will Congress demand answers from this Administration?

Yes, we are in 2025 talking about 2028 already.
The truth is, that election is coming up and the jockeying has already begun.
Who do you think can win?

Republicans spent the day reminding everyone that Lindsey Graham and other GOP electeds were talking to Trump’s team during the effort to overturn a free and fair election. Not exactly the flex they think it is.

Trump is getting pushback left, right, and center from the public and the courts.
The judge who ruled against Trump’s deployment of the National Guard to Oregon was a Trump appointee. Even Republicans know this is a gross overreach.
He’s pushing all the wrong buttons.
