To my critics who say that my position urging Democratic governors to redrawing maps is simply a race to the bottom, I say this:
The only thing Donald Trump understand is overwhelming force. We shouldn't bring knives to a gun fight, we should be missiles. Unilateral disarmament is not an option.

I’d say that @stephencolbert.bsky.social is (with the lone exception of @maddow.msnbc.com) the most brilliant, humane person I’ve encountered in broadcasting. His mind works faster than anyone else’s at a level of sophistication that is unmatchable. Genuinely a generational talent.

The DOJ let Boeing walk—
no indictments, no accountability, no justice.
A corporation buys its way out of a body count.
Call it what it is:
Corporate immunity for corporate homicide.
And the system signed off.

Private health insurers stole $33B in revenue by defrauding Medicare, with UnitedHealth alone taking $13.9B.
Instead of their CEOs getting prison, their companies get tax breaks.
Elon isn’t targeting this fraud & waste because it helps oligarchs and holds down the working class.

The reasons behind the change at SWA bag fees. Wall Street greed. SWA has been backed by an investment firm and they are calling the shots. Herb Kelleher (SWA founder) would have kicked someone’s ass and never gone down this path.

In 2023, UnitedHealthcare reported $22 billion in profits. They also lead the field in claim denials. And they’re not alone.
Health insurance companies are in the business of denying our healthcare. They profit off the suffering of you and your loved ones. Prove me wrong!
