This is actually insane.
Trump tonight appears to have pushed the false "medbed" conspiracy theory, which has spread in the far-right internet over the years. https://t.co/L1MBPIU4ON

Cardinal Timothy Dolan on Fox & Friends on Charlie Kirk: "This guy is a modern day St Paul. He was a missionary, he's an evangelist, he's a hero. He's one I think that knows what Jesus meant when he said 'the truth will set you free.'"

Mark Halperin has become one of the Internet’s most prominent “both sides” voices. Completely debased from reality, his new shows bring on voices that just repeat lies, deflect from actual evidence, and leans into the right-wing grift. No surprise the harassers stick together.
“Had Charlie Kirk been a Democrat and done what he did in service of, say, Barack Obama, he would have been among the most venerated, celebrated, profiled, championed people in America.” @MarkHalperin on how Charlie Kirk became an American icon without ever receiving the

10% of states is FIVE states. Republicans currently have full House delegation control in 11 states - more than double, or if Mr. Obfuscator were speaking would say “22% of states don’t have a Democratic representative.”
Patrick: In California, where Mr. Slick wants to change the constitution out of revenge and actually be totally unfair and destroy America, and undermine democracy, there are 43 Democrats and nine Republicans. He wants to reduce it down to even less than that.

Word salad from a U Chicago and Berkeley educated doctorate-holder. The lengths people are going to twist themselves into the MAGA knot is atrocious. All about the grift.
People who have been to elite universities like Harvard don’t understand how loathed they are. Their dripping contempt for the uncredentialed resulted in the pillaging of the working class by the over-credentialed college elites. Everything Trump is doing is a reversal of that.

Was Stefanik’s failed bid for UN Ambassador worth selling out upstate NY’s healthcare? No. Is she worth re-electing after her “farewell” tour? Also no. NY-21, you deserve so much better than someone who will gut your Medicaid & Medicare for their own career ambitions.

Let’s see if NBC and other media networks push the recession narrative as hard as they did in late 2022/2023. The fear of a recession, pushed by the media, was an issue that stayed throughout the 2024 race. But this time, with GOP in office, will they repeat the same narrative?
Save the clip, from @MeetThePress today @kwelkernbc: Alright, Mr. Secretary, consumer sentiment is dropping. Inflation has ticked up. Major banks like JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs now say a recession in the next 12 months is becoming more likely. Should Americans brace for a

Here’s the thing. Every last one of these people in tears heard Trump on the stump before the election. They knew he was cruel. But they were fine with it because they thought he’d only be cruel to the people they didn’t like. The problem with cruelty is that it doesn’t stop

What an embarrassment my god. Apply the Biden standard. If Biden told a press pool he didn’t know whether or not China was a member of BRICS, what would Tim Pool/FOX News/Joe Rogan have said?

I wonder why an organization that manages close to $4T in assets and is the largest financial institution in the country should have expanded oversight. Maybe we should just let them do whatever they want ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is going to backfire and will be a key talking point in the GOP gubernatorial campaigns.
The bill enabling Gov. Hochul to move the expected special election to fill Rep. Stefanik’s seat is on the Monday Assembly Election Committee agenda per LRS update. The bill is likely to get approved in both chambers tomorrow.

The irony here is that Benny Johnson, a key popularizer of this secret Politico funding theory, actually was himself secretly and illegally paid millions of dollars by the Russian government. He claims he didn't know the money was from Russia.

Even some of Tenet’s right-wing stars wondered why it existed. Now, a new federal indictment claims it was a Russian propaganda operation.
