Why is he such a dedicated fucking crank?
JB and others should start aggressively going after people in the press like Martha Raddatz who seem to support the military occupation of American cities. At least call them out by name.
What an utterly disturbing thing to say. I can’t believe she said that. Unbelievable.
Congratulations. You’re being quoted across the media as a bootlicking Trump sycophant. You must be so proud.
You’re a charlatan and a bootlicker Muriel. You’ll never escape your feckless capitulation to a fascist.
Raddatz is a fucking disgrace and so is Bowser.
It really is special imo. I have never heard of Gentleman Broncos but I will definitely be checking that out.
“I hate orphans” 😂😂 I know it’s not as underrated as it used to be, but I still don’t think it gets the recognition it deserves. Just an all around great little movie.
Why does anyone let this feckless goblin spread his insidious lies?
They would be as irrelevant as South Dakota if they weren’t surrounded on all sides by infinitely more successful states.
Let’s drop the fucking pretense. If a Democratic president was doing what Trump is doing, we’d be at war. The right would be committing violent acts of domestic terrorism every other day. They would 100% declare war and the GOP would be funding it. Why do we continue to allow this charade to go on?
I think we can round out the top 5 here with maybe Mike Johnson?
Is there a more punchable face in America?
"The media seems to have accepted Leavitt’s 'frequent handshaking' diagnosis. But photos from last Saturday showed Trump with bruising on his left hand too. Are we to believe he’s double-fisting his handshakes now?"
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
You’re terrible. Another useless, gutless Democrat.
The Democrat’s feckless, non-existent response to what is happening right now is unforgivable. Next time we’ll try to schedule the fascist takeover of government around summer vacation.
If I was somehow elected to fix this mess I would over correct so hard. People like Muriel Bowser would be banned and labeled a fascist collaborator.
Sellout, traitor.
You’ll forever be known as a gutless Trump bootlicker and a sellout.
She’s a bootlicker and she’ll be a bootlicker for the rest of her days.
If you think flattering Chuck Schumer on Bluesky is an effective way to get him to modify his behavior I really don’t know what to tell you except for it’s kind of delusional on multiple levels.
I hear what you’re saying. There’s probably value in this kind of positive reinforcement and 2-3 yrs ago I’d probably be more supportive, but I personally can’t do it anymore. I want Chuck, Hakeem and the rest of these feckless Democrats to get the message that a lot of us want them gone.
A sports analogy is probably more appropriate considering we don’t get to choose family. Schumer is like the coach of a team that has had a losing record for 10 straight seasons despite having a solid roster and somehow still has his job. If only this was a trivial game w/ no real consequences.
We are in the midst of a full blown dictatorship and people are applauding this? Chuck Schumer is 5-6 years too late. If he cared about our future he’d resign. He’s beyond incompetent.
😂 Susan Collins is a traitor to America and a soulless human being. She should be indicted for crimes against the state and for colluding with the usurper.

She was brought to the US as an 8yo, worked hard, studied, earned a scholarship, planned to become a nurse. ICE kidnapped her. Held her for 6 MONTHS in a detention facility with conditions so miserable that she finally agreed to voluntarily move to Honduras, which her family left at gunpoint.
Andrew Ross Sorkin doing his level best to launder the smear campaign of the most brazenly corrupt president in American history. These people are such sniveling sycophants.
When will High Priest John Roberts weigh in on this? He wrote the majority opinion that anointed Trump King, so when will US journalists start asking SCOTUS to comment on the monster they created? They’re directly responsible for this insanity and yet they’re entirely insulated from the fallout.
I’ll admit this is a vague suggestion but the opposition needs to do something shocking and drastic to snap the horns of this regime and the wakes up the citizenry. It is not too early to lay down a serious gambit that forces Trump’s hand and goes 5 steps beyond what anyone is expecting.
She’s awful.
Any Dem that goes to that funeral is a disgrace.
🚨 Mayor Wu faces criminal charges because she is decent. We all know what ⏰ it is. Of course you are going after a female POC first. She is a “suspicious person” in 2025.
"Hey, we need a Republican to talk about how totally believable it is that an eyewitness to sexual assaults now insists they never saw anything wrong -- who should we get?"
Far, far worse? Really? This is very likely to be demonstrably false unless of course we’re using the sliding scale of objectivity that is so popular these days.
DC police are now harrasssing people on metro bus stops. This is Fascism.
Isn’t his wife a Thai immigrant?
6 months ago, in the shadow of the night, Israeli soldiers took 16-year-old American Muhammad Zaher Ibrahim from his family. He’s been imprisoned ever since. He’s suffered from scabies & lost 25 pounds. Remember Sayfollah Musallet, the young American killed by settlers last month? They’re cousins.
Ok Jerusalem
Take names and hold trials. Even for the ones who stand around looking confused while their coworkers impose fascism. Let them know there will be consequences.
ICE, DC Police, Park Police, DHS, and HSI brutally arrested a man who refused to provide identification after being stopped for eating in public. Goons attempted to stop community members from recording his injuries during the incident.
Virginia Giuffre’s lawyer Sigrid McCawley reacts to the Maxwell transcripts, saying Maxwell “repeatedly and brazenly lied” to the government and is trying to “recreate history.” Full statement
Based on your enthusiasm I might have to give it another go, but the first time around it felt extremely flat.
i'll say it again, my loud and vigorous support for any democrat who calls for televised hearings and criminal charges for everyone involved in DOGE. this guy should never be able to live in peace again.
Independent voters must be so proud they put a sociopath in the White House.
Psychopath
Why do we continue to pretend that the Supreme Court, run by the high priest of corruption John Roberts, is above the fray? Does SCOTUS have a press office or PR wing? CNN and MSNBC should request a statement from the court. I’m wondering how they feels about these maps in TX he facilitated.
The dynamic is kind of fascinating. They still have a death grip on the party and play gatekeepers while the GOP has fully integrated their party’s flank. I don’t think it’s 1 to 1 but Dems have proven way more resistant to change.
I feel for Molly. I’d like to think she vehemently disagrees but the pushback isn’t always effective enough.
Volume up
I don’t know what to say to people like you. Really, it’s too early.
You’re a little confused but that’s probably your resting state.
Chris Matthews is a lunatic.
WTF? These people are Democrats? Then who’s on our side?
All I can think of is how hysterical the press was about the economy in October 2024.
I think Jeffries is a huge problem. I don’t think any amount of ire is too much at this point. If you look at his full body of work since January, he’s been a complete liability for the Dems. I agree that it might come off as over the top and unfocused at times, but people are rightly pissed
Oh FFS, Malcolm Turnbull wades into shilling for abundance on @msnbc. Unreal. The left has no media representation in this country.
Not even a year into this lunacy. The next Democratic president needs to declare war on these people. They have flouted the rule of law for far too long. They should serve lengthy prison sentences as a message that none of this is normal or legal.
100%. It’s unbelievable how he can’t effortlessly pivot to bashing the Trump economy on fricken cnbc of all places. The guy is terrible at politics and a shill for consultants that represent the donor class.
11? Hakeem Jeffries has never crossed a 2 in his entire career. He’s a disgrace and I can’t believe people feel the need to defend this level of rank rhetorical incompetence.
For more information, go to @simonwdc.bsky.social Hopium Chronicles' Resolutions Project at www.hopiumchronicles.com/p/hopiums-re...
There is a gold mine of topics he could tap into on cnbc that all effectively indict the Trump administration and he can’t bring himself to avoid a critique of the 1 person in his party generating excitement. He’s a buffoon who can’t even deliver his own shitty neoliberal messaging with competence.
Jeffries is the enemy of anyone to the left of Hillary Clinton.
This president has been so deeply damaging to the American brand. It’s so utterly embarrassing to watch this performative fawning over Putin the butcher. It is deeply disturbing and it’s rewiring in real time everything I once loved about this country.
lol, the dude thought this was a real photo
Stop it…seriously.
Morning Joe invites Tom Rogers of Newsweek on to slam Mamdani. Why? Who wants to tell them that Newsweek is and has long been a sham? And that Forbes is and has long been a joke? (Know your value indeed.) At least Lemire says Adams & Cuomo are "deeply problematic candidates."
Seriously can’t believe what I just heard.
Who’s the degenerate hack who can’t pronounce Mamdani?
What a talentless, meritless fucking hack.
Who are you kidding Chuck? You will continue to fund Wall St bootlickers over true party reformists. You are holding that senate seat hostage. You’re a fucking disgrace.
Hey Chuck, only a sociopath or someone in the early stages of dementia would stay in office after causing the amount of damage you have caused to this party. You’re a ghoul and an open supporter of genocide. I sickened by your insistence on putting your foul legacy ahead of the health of this party.
Is this you’re real account t? For the love of god please resign. You are a cancer Kirsten, a complete cancer to any chance we have to curb this dictatorship. You and your friend @schumer.senate.gov are poison. I don’t know how you can look yourselves in the mirror every morning.
Let’s be honest, we now know exactly what the vast majority of Americans will do during a fascist takeover of America. Absolutely nothing.
Morning Joe is a useless collection of media hacks that can’t help themselves but to fawn over the “strength” of a dictator. I’d imagine anyone with a spine working at that network despises what you people have been doing every morning since November. It’s cancerous to democracy.
@msnbc is a fucking disgrace. Chris Matthews is a fucking idiot. Mike Brezinski is a disgusting fucking hack. Al Sharpton is a fucking buffoon. No Democrat should give a fuck what these hacks say.
For the record, our division commander BANNED things called “presence patrols” in Iraq. “If you don’t have a specific task & purpose, your ‘presence’ doesn’t do anything.” National Guard stating they are now doing presence patrols in DC. A complete waste of soldier’s time & effort.
Harry Enten is a red hot fiery ember in the dumpster fire that is American news media. These people are cancerous to democracy. They have been raised on pure spectacle and they are borderline sociopathic.
Where’s the counter programming by Democrats? It’s non existent from my viewpoint. Not a single peep after Trump lies repeatedly about crime statistics and declares DC is under his unilateral control.
Trump actually mentioned him by name and of course he botched the pronunciation. Harry’s tune has suddenly changed.
What a couple of fucking hacks.

It’s certainly not an excuse but they live in fear of Trump and his supporters. They’re craven and hope they’ll be spared if they stay quiet.
How is the entire country not recoiling in absolute horror at this hideous freak show?
Great headline.
It is genuinely shocking how little Trump's attack on universities relies on law and policy. Even this profile of May Mailman, a Harvard-trained lawyer, who is active in the Trump administration's plan to transform higher education, barely mentions legal predicates. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/11/u...
They have proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that they can’t be relied upon. It’s long past time for a new and it sickens me to think that Chuck Schumer will pop his calcified neck up in 12 months and try to solicit my vote for this weak ass party.
Including Trump’s desire to crush the fentanyl trade in this headline is such a farce. It’s also a slimy example of how the NYT considers sanewashing this lunatic part of its job.
Def worth a look. I’m seriously considering going low tech. As someone who loves tech and uses it for fun and work it’s difficult, but I’m so disgusted with the current environment that I’m willing to make a serious go at it. At the end of the day it’s all dispensable compared to what we’re losing.
It would be so great if a single Democrat was out here ripping into this naked bribery, demanding an investigation and threatening a subpoena in the future. The goal at this point should be to make Tim Cook scared. What good are these CEO’s if they’re so easily manipulated and cowed?
You can’t avoid the land mines that are out there right now as far as who you choose to do business with. I’m just gonna avoid buying any new tech for the next 3-4 years. I’ll stick with what I have or buy second hand, older gen stuff. Companies like Apple rely on product refreshes nobody needs.
I’m not sure google is much better unfortunately. They’ve capitulated plenty. I think my plan is to spend as little money as possible on tech for the next 3 yrs. I’ll build a pc if necessary and buy used laptops and phones.
A new threat to fair elections has emerged: the federal government itself. bit.ly/46ETsQp
Great to hear you advocating for progressive policies on MSNBC Matt. I think you might have left Nicole Wallace speechless. It’s kind of shocking that you’re further ahead in this than the actual Democratic Party. Maybe they’ll start to listen, but we can’t get the House leader to endorse Zohran.
I shouldn’t have posed the question like that. I know why he’s doing it - because he’s clearly being blackmailed. I just want everyone to ask themselves why the f is he pardoning a known pedophile.
He’s so sick. Why is he pardoning a pedophile?
Panel after panel on MSNBC has discussed the complete lawlessness behind Trumps former personal attorney and current DAG interviewing Maxwell, but I’ve yet to hear any of them mention blackmail. She’s clearly threatening to talk or else. It was pretty obvious from the start.
BREAKING: President Trump fires the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics hours after weak jobs report.
