Having served as a Moscow correspondent in the early days of Putin's reign, this reminds me of how the Kremlin took over its own press pool and made sure that only compliant journalists were given access.

Looks like tomorrow will bring votes on a Republican plan to fund tax cuts for the rich by slashing Medicaid.
So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.

My warmest greetings go out to the wonderful people who built their careers sniffing out “Ukrainian Nazis” under every stone in Ukraine for tasty headlines that fueled Russian war propaganda on this-is-why-Ukraine-must-be-dealt-with, only to get Nazi salutes normalized in their own country.

Gift link: short, accessible from @twmorrison.bsky.social & @rickpildes.bsky.social on what resources the courts have should Trump start defying court orders. (Expect escalations that resemble negotiations.) While the President may have the guns and the pardon power, judges hold some high cards too.

So Trump says America is ranked 40th in education so that's why we should close the Dept of Education which is weird. Why doesn't he just claim those studies showing us at 40th are false? Weird how he picks and chooses what to believe.

Hopefully by the end of the next half decade, or at least by the end of the decade, we will look back on the 2018-2024 timeframe and wonder why the fuck we were announcing our pronouns after telling someone our names.

I'm at the point where I really just don't give a shit about anybody's opinion unless they're an expert in a given topic and they are telling me what they know about their area of expertise. Everyone else can shut the fuck up.

I think the main thing we're going to get out of Trump II is chaos. He's a lame duck and was already a weak president, is putting together an incoherent governing coalition and seems intent on taking the rest of the elected GOP to the Shit Buffet and not even springing for the lobster.

And just like that, Donald Trump gets away with his insurrection. Something that would have never happened in any other democratic country on earth. Astonishing.

One thing not being talked about enough is the connection between MAGA and bleached blond hair. All women on Fox News have bleached blond hair (it seems to be a requirement) and many if not all women who circulate and adulate Trump have bleached blond hair. Look at Trump's new AG pick. 🤔

The low hanging fruit of journalism now is to cover the abject incompetence of #Trump and how much of a disaster his picks are for the country. The country is going to unravel over the next 4yrs.
