We all know Donald Trump raped #KatieJohnson multiple times. If you haven’t had the opportunity to watch her 30 minute interview, grab a chair and a box of tissue. She’s remaining out of the public eye but I hope she finds a safe space to speak out soon. #SheShed #Pinks

Meiselas: What do you say to people who say while Governor Mills has been a great governor, she’s 77 years old, and we need younger leadership?

Mills: It’s a fair point… But I don’t think I could live with myself if I didn’t do everything I can to reverse what’s going on in Washington

Hegseth is another angry, self-hating closet case. There’s a reason he’s so obsessed with masculinity, fit men and oiled male bodies. There’s not a shred of doubt in my mind about that.

They’re freaking out!!!

Trump’s cabinet secretaries falsely claim Dems are keeping the government closed because of the “No Kings” mass protests, and Mike Johnson calls it the “hate America rally.”

The truth is: we love America, but we hate tyrants. That’s why we’re doing this.

See you Saturday.

There is no conceivable argument that these ships, even if we assume they were carrying narcotics, could not be dealt with in some other way. I think we can just drop the caveats and say: This is mass murder.

Chris Hayes @chrislhayes.bsky.social · 20h

Unless and until some kind of compelling legal and moral argument is presented as to why this is a legitimate use of deadly force, this is just…mass murder.

It’s all because we don’t pray to imaginary friends and sky daddy. Marx had it right “religion is the opiate of the masses”. It’s a crutch to hide evil behind.

@timemagazine.bsky.social Are you brain dead? #Trump met with Netanyahu at Mar A Largo before the election not to broker Biden deal till after the election. Which BTW is what #Reagan did with Iran telling them to keep our people till after the election. And BTW Trump used Biden's deal.

So FU.
