We live in an Era of Lies, wherein the great power is the ability to lie incessantly and outrageously. Here, truth is worthless.

Northwestern and Columbia being famous for journalism and bending over for Trump seems a little too on the nose these days
This is the second largest payout from a private university to the Trump admin yet, second only to Columbia’s $200m

Everyone knows Trump is abusing every power his office wields. Still, the vastness is shocking.
Reuters reached out to everyone that Trump or his subordinates singled out publicly for retribution, and reviewed hundreds of official orders, directives and public records. The result: the most comprehensive accounting yet of his campaign of payback.

He’s like the secretary in the Mission Impossible movies, disavowing all knowledge. I keep expecting him to self destruct in five seconds.

A lot of snark in the comments, and I would never vote for this person, but I admire her plain spoken courage here. More Republicans need to be honest like this.
Marjorie Taylor Greene: "I was called a traitor by a man that I fought for 6 years for. I gave him my loyalty for free. I've never owed him anything. Let me tell you what a traitor is -- a traitor is an American that serves foreign countries."

🔴 Scolding a U.S. reporter for asking questions about MBS ordering a fellow journalist to be bonesawed to death signals to dictators everywhere that they can murder journalists with impunity.

You can’t just pick out the email where the convicted pedo calls him dirty Donald and the one where Epstein says Donald was in the room with a victim for hours and the one where he says Donald knew about the pedophilia and the one about Donald and teens in bikinis, you’ll give people the wrong idea

Re the term “working class.” I ride a bus every morning with the working class, and not many of them look like MAGA.

everyone loves a centrist right up until the point where you need them to fight for... anything at all. Then you find out what being a centrist actually means.

AOC: You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to keep people from getting poisoned, from dangerous chemicals 

You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to bring down the cost of housing

Still can’t believe the pass Trump got when he denied knowing about Project 2025.

The shameless GOP lying about the No Kings gatherings scheduled for next Saturday reveals how deeply hostile much of the Republican Party is to “the right of the people peaceably to assemble.” I look forward to our local No Kings event, and urge my fellow Americans to attend in their communities.
