At least we know one thing for certain about the next 4 years: Anything that happens in America that is good, Trump will take credit for it. Everything that happens which is bad, Trump will blame Biden or some other Democrat. I think we’ve got that one figured out.

Desantis says when he was golfing with Trump yesterday, Trump told him: “I know inflation was a big deal, but the number one issue why I got elected was immigration and the border issue.”

I just wish the Biden Admin was one-tenth as good and as vigilant in responding to right-wing lies in a timely and effective manor as Gavin Newsom has been. Sadly, they were not.

I never endorse anybody for anything partly because I’m nobody & partly because I don’t want to publicly take sides inside the party, & this is only my personal endorsement, but I have listened to the candidates & read a lot & I think Ben Wikler is the right person for DNC Chair.

But the conservative “strict constructionists” on SCOTUS found presidential immunity in the Constitution. It’s right there in Article …No, not in any Articles. It’s in Amendment …No, not in any Amendment. It’s almost like they did what they always accused the libs of doing. bsky.app/profile/adam...

If anyone thinks that our neighbors or allies will simply allow themselves to be bullied into relinquishing sovereignty they are terribly mistaken
Mexico has sent a position paper to the UNSC on the right to self-defense under the UN Charter.

It insists that one State may not use force against a non-State actor on the territory of another State without the latter's consent, and rejects the "unwilling or unable" doctrine.

Norms and duct tape, folks. That’s all that’s been holding our republic together for decades. And we’re shredding all of it, piece by piece, because no one has the courage to stand up to Orange Man & the entire GOP has become a far right cult of personality.

We live in an era where <checks notes> Dick Cheney, Paul Ryan, Charles Koch, & Mike Pence are now <too liberal> for the Republican Party, even as our Papers of Record discuss constantly how the real problem is that Democrats have moved too far to the left on The Issues.

Trump says he won’t hire “people who worked with, or are endorsed by” a list of 11 people.

6 of the 11 are people he hired.
