ICYMI — Trump’s DOJ tries to clean-up the mess behind a Trump official admitting to a secret recording that Ghislaine was moved to “keep her quiet” and their plan is to “react every Republican” from the Epstein files and leave the liberals.

Honestly, I think it’s disgusting that these so-called progressives keep spreading the outrageous lie that JD Vance fucked a couch.
It’s misinformation, and it’s beneath all of us.
He fucked an ottoman. Which is a completely different piece of furniture!

Yes. I also felt this way about the assassinations in Minnesota. In fact, I continue to feel this way about the assassinations in Minnesota.
Feel like one political party kidnapping an opponent should be bigger news

“I’ve had enough…I’m refusing to back down.”
Texas state Rep. Nicole Collier speaks to MSNBC from the Texas State Capitol. She is stuck there after the Texas GOP required police surveillance as condition for release. She is refusing to sign a waiver for the law enforcement escort.

A new threat to free and fair elections has emerged: the federal government. We chronicle the executive branch’s concerted strategy to push its way into election infrastructure where it doesn’t belong.

It is fucking insane that we had a decade of people complaining about the dangers of cancel culture, and now literally hundreds of thousands of people are being purged from government jobs for ideological reasons, but that is not cancel culture.

Many people think of Medicare as a program for seniors, Medicaid as a program for the poor, both detached from the rest of the population.
But changes for one have a ripple effect through all the rest. And these cuts will profoundly affect all Americans.

Republicans just passed the most dangerous bill in U.S. history. The largest transfer of wealth from everyday people to the ultra-rich in history.
In the coming weeks, we're announcing our support for challengers to those who betrayed their communities by voting for this bill.

A sign of how fundamentally broken and inadequate to the moment our information and media ecosystem is when the president is deploying the military to crush protests against his mass kidnapping scheme, and the question is whether those who oppose it are being nice enough.

Republicans must be super proud of their bill trying to rip healthcare away from 13.7 million Americans if they're forcing a committee vote in the middle of the night. 🙄
If Donald Trump's big beautiful tax break for billionaires is so great... why not pass it in prime time? Why jam it through in the middle of the night? What don't they want you to know?
They have such contempt for the American people.

Just so we’re clear, everybody calling Kilmar Abrego Garcia a “terrorist” or a “gang member” are lying, and they know they’re lying, and they repeat it for purposes of confusing people who don’t follow this stuff closely into accepting what was done to him.

Reminder: if you predicted half the things happening now (threatening to take Canada, Greenland, and the Panama Canal; lawless mass firings; complete defiance of Congressional prerogatives; mass pardons of violent supporters) even a couple of years ago, Serious Thinkers would have dismissed you.
