Trump was thrilled to announce tonight that he has terminated America’s most senior military officer — Gen. C.Q. Brown, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Sen. Tim Kaine tells federal employees to ignore Trump’s offer to quit with pay for months. “Don’t be fooled. He’s tricked hundreds of people with that offer. If you accept that offer and resign he’ll stiff you just like he stiffed the contractors. He doesn’t have any authority to do this.”

FWIW, if I ran a newsroom, I'd assign a bunch of reporters to very-specific Trump-related beats, require them to publish almost daily, and insist they always stay in their lanes.

No saving up reporting for a big package geared towards the Pulitzer Board or holding back material for a book.
Steve Bannon made no secret that “flood the zone with shit” was their strategy.

It’s incredible that 10 years on, America’s political media outlets still haven’t gotten their arms around it.

In some cases, they’ve given up and embraced it.
And yes, this is intentional. A "flood the zone" tactic. Intended to overwhelm the news media and draw attention away from certain particularly worrisome things that might now get missed or less focused on.

The smugness from Scott Bessent, Donald Trump's pick for Treasury Secretary, when he says he opposes raising the federal minimum wage is nauseating.

I'm so over these billionaire fcks.

Donald Trump wants you to believe that he is all powerful and that if you fight back you will lose.

He wants you to believe that if you fight back you face danger.

It is time for us to build not a temporary resistance but a long term opposition.

PLEASE REMEMBER:

trump's win percentage is shaping up to be the third SMALLEST in history.

He does NOT have a mandate, no matter what he says.

That means we push back against every single batshit crazy policy he tries to pass.

EVERYTHING.
Mandate my ass.

If grocery prices are too high ... blame the corporation that sets the price of groceries.
Do not blame the immigrants that picked the produce and processed the meat.
