while I’m being cranky, access journalism needs to go. When the president does his “I’m alpha because I insulted you” thing somebody needs to fall on his sword and say “what the fuck is wrong with you, old man?” on a hot mic. the hero of the wizard of Oz is Toto.

How many of the 70 million who did not vote a year ago were snagged by this framing of politics?
This is from Autocracy, Inc, about how modern autocratic propaganda works.
I consider this every time I decide what to share and how to frame it.

How can the region being represented by Mike Johnson reelect him? The never legislate legislator, and pedophile protector.
A quick reminder that the House is not in session because Speaker Johnson CANCELED it, not because of the current shutdown.

Carney: But this decades-long process of an ever-closer economic relationship with the United States is now over. And as a consequence, many of our former strengths as a country—more particularly, our economic strengths based on close ties to America—have now become our vulnerabilities…

If the representatives in our government are not willing to work on our behalf, what good are they?
We are paying a lot of tax dollars for one heck of a lot of GOP vacation time – thanks to Maga Mike Johnson. Looks like they’re doing a good job protecting pedophiles, not much else.

No money for healthcare, no money for veterans, no money for farmers. But good news: Trump just doubled Argentina’s bailout to $40 billion.

It's increasingly clear that the president lives in a constructed bubble of unreality designed by aides who are manipulating him in order to take control of US policy. Seems like an important story - wish media would cover it.

I was a skeptic about the import of the Epstein files.
But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whatever’s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.

Letting one comedian or journalist slide - easy, then letting another slide is tough, then it gets easier, and then we may as well be Russia? The media is controlled in Russia, China, North Korea, …, and the United States media is primarily owned by the wealthiest. Free speech protected by ???
OLIVER: “In Russia, when Putin rose to power, TV satirists were among his first targets… Putin was driven to madness by how he was mocked on a puppet show… the lesson is it’s not safe to let one show slide because there are currently others.”

Murphy continues to be a really clear voice
We are fast becoming a banana republic, with two standards of justice. If you oppose the leader, you go to jail just for speech. If you're a loyalist, you get immunity for your crimes.
That's what happens in Iran - not the United States. This is a decision moment for America.

@karaswisher mentioned this song as hopeful in a recent pivot podcast…. As much as the GOP may be trying to edit history, & to fantasize about the past, there is only going forward.

It feels as though the current president has had every opportunity to be a great leader, to bring us together as a nation – will he step up to this moment? The rhetoric would suggest otherwise. 💔
