Was dumbfounded by this last night. Expected him to take the 8 senators to the mat & he did the opposite. Felt condescending -telling me I don’t understand how Senate works behind closed doors& what a deal the 5 Senators got (reinstatement of folks who shouldn’t have been fired in the 1st place etc)
2/6…including Trump’s.

When Lawrence O’Donnell…one of the least “bendable” voices at the network…suddenly:
downplays the 8 senators caving,
smooths over Schumer’s mistake,
and shifts into a strangely corporate tone…

Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength.

Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans.

The American people need more from their leaders.

@nicollewallace.bsky.social your show’s chyron should instead say “Trump forgets he was president on 1/6”

Real change doesn’t come from a place of comfort (ask any addict or alcoholic who’s become sober). Shut it down.
This
It’s time for Senate Democrats to play hardball.

Why would Congress want to fund its own irrelevance??

Why give an out of control Executive branch a blank check to destroy even more of America??

So, um, we don’t need the legislation. The Constitution is pretty clear about this. The remedies are clear. And short of those, how about standing firm on no budget ok until Trump/GOP agree to…adhere to the Constitution. Or, perhaps, just approve extension a month at a time…if he complies.
Trump coerced ABC into silencing Jimmy Kimmel — a brazen violation of the First Amendment.

We’re introducing legislation to hold Trump accountable, help Americans protect themselves from this abuse of power, and stand with those who refuse to bow to political blackmail.

Our tax code is rigged.

It’s not fair that a billionaire can pay a lower tax rate than a public school teacher.

@governor.ca.gov have we done this yet in California? If not, we should!
New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!

@governor.ca.gov I hope California is going to participate or take actions like these to defend our health now that CDC/RFK are abdicating their responsibilities

Democracy dies in the darkness of the 4th estate who’s sold its soul.
The Washington Post just published its latest op-ed lamenting the "outrageously excessive fine" that was imposed on Donald Trump and celebrating it being "thrown out."

Democracy died over there. Now we just get to read about its rotting corpse.

Politicians working out in public is a bipartisan custom. But Democrats are increasingly posting weightlifting content in hopes of reaching male voters in the so-called “manosphere” that Trump mastered during his campaign.

This shows just how little we value women as a society that so many fellow Americans can overlook this aspect of his character for their own self serving reasons. Too many women don’t even value themselves enough to say Enough. So much misogyny- it’s depressing.

Trump's long history as a heinous creep includes a kazillion news reports that have *nothing* to do with Epstein, most notably

- the Access Hollywood tape in which he bragged he could violently abuse women, in

- EXACTLY the manner in which he was found guilty of abusing E. Jean Carroll

Trump’s favorability is lowest of his second term—just 37%

What’s sad is that Democratic Party favorability is yet lower—28%

Gloat all you want at Trump’s collapse, but Dem leadership better start listening to its voter base instead of to corporate donors and foreign lobbies, or they’ll lose again

Dear New York Times,
Please stop referring to Jeffrey Epstein’s underage victims as “young women.” Try “children.” Or if you must, “teenage girls.”
They weren’t just “on the younger side,” as Trump once said. They were children.

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com Bless you for tonight’s opening.Thank you for reflecting the anguish I’ve been feeling all day about the suffering that’s coming. & more importantly, asking “Why don’t they care?” How can they do this to their fellow Americans?

Don’t let up. Pls keep calling them out.

Internal documents revealed that Trump and Musk have been LYING about Social Security fraud.

So I sounded the alarm about DOGE slowing down Americans' benefits based on those lies—and they backtracked.

We're not letting DOGE get away with messing with Americans benefits.

Physical buttons are finally coming back to cars. 🤌

It’s not just an aesthetic choice, though—it’s a safety-conscious one. Research shows that reaction times using screens while driving are worse than being drunk or high.
