Former federal prosecutor, diehard Dem, old enough to believe it was the beginning of the end when Reagan was elected.

Pelosi reportedly made $5 million on Nvidia stock alone. Don’t know if lucky investment/insider info which is exactly the point. Congress insider trading very difficult to prove. It was an unpopular bill among her caucus and she voted against Did she ever publicly say why she opposed the bill?
Should have said “survival equals keeping their elected jobs”.
Survival in US House and Senate equals reelection. Don’t say anything that draws any negative attention or criticism that may embolden potential primary challengers.
Now there’s truly An Axis of Evil.
CNN, give this guy a contract to respond to GOP propaganda in the US.
I thought Elon and RFKJr were trying to increase US population not poison half of us.
Well, Molly, it turns out that many, many things said by Orange Cankles turn out not to be true.
Amen
Once Jeffries got the “big job”, all he cared about was not saying something that would cause him to lose it. Survival is the coin of the realm in DC
Schumer hoping to look like a spry 74 year old next to the “older” 77 year old Janet Mills.
Hey, even Nancy is allowed one mistake, albeit a rather large one.
Cautious, always afraid to make a mistake, afraid of any blowback so Schumer and Jeffries speak only in political platitudes. Deadly for communicating real ideas to real Americans.
Vote like your life depends on it because it actually does.
Well slightly better than shooting someone else or the family dog.
Welcome to Bluesky. I’ve been looking for Gavin’s cheeky posts here for weeks. Keep them coming, please.
Good God, CNN. Trump “pushing the boundaries” ? You guys must have hired away some of those NYT headline writers.
100%
Not bravery just a do or die moment for Boebert as Colorado lost millions of dollars and thousands of job
Bowser hasn’t been string standing up to Trump. I think her fear is that if she does push back, Trump and his GOP lackeys will end home rule which would be very bad for DC.
Douthat has gotten increasingly sanctimonious and irritating in justifying Trump and MAGA. The NYT tries to get MAGA and the religious right as readers by allowing Douthat’s “religious-y” take on American politics to run on its pages. Good luck with that.
Scary if true. Handlers are running the finer points of policy but Trump still reads the headlines and he has always cut his losses when someone in the administration gets consistently bad press.
Thanks for this info. I will read Bowser EO.
Lots of blowback. Trump loved Elon until the polls said Elon was poison. Polls now starting to say the same about Kennedy. Trump has no loyalty to anyone so might cut his losses if criticism of Kennedy grows much louder.
Kirk making money promoting lies says KBJ not qualified for the Supreme Court. MAGA refuses to acknowledge that black/brown people are fully part of this nation due reward/praise for their accomplishments like every other American. Reminds me of the white trash that criticized Michelle Obama.
OMG. Can you imagine Trump’s reaction if Biden wins? Don’t know that Biden deserves it but the committee might give it to him just to rankle Trump.
Cassidy vote got RFKJr confirmed. It’s his obligation to see that Trump fires him for incompetence.
Grandiose ravings of a mad man.
What’s weird is that Trump keeps insisting that the ornaments are actually gold rather than gold-colored paint brushed over whatever.
Well the AUMF covers multitudes as Bush, Biden and now Trump agree
Come on, Bowser. At a minimum, can’t you insist any law enforcement agents operating in DC show their faces, names, and agency insignia like DC officers do?
Union/worker power at low ebb. Oligarchs ascendant. Trump supporters have been persuaded that he is a man of working class though he has been against unions his entire life. Unions made the middle class. Whoever thinks whatever manufacturing jobs return to USA will pay 1970 comp wages is a fool.
These people really are morons, “dumber than a box of rocks” as my dear departed father would say.
I think this statement is silly on her part but if she doesn’t play ball with Trump, he will end home rule in a New York minute.
Susan Collins has been a female megaphone for Republican men her entire career. Her “con” was the clutching pearls. She’s always been a woman pushing down other women. She does what she is told to do by men in red hats. #Pinks #DemVoice1 #Voices4Victory
#TrumpPerfumeStinks.
Too funny. These dead/seriously ill jokes must be frying Trump’s ass
Class move.
The jokes practically write themselves.
Do you think they were sending a message?
OMG, the winning was Brady all the time. There’s a shocker, NOT.
So back to the locker room to berate and bully some 19-20 year olds? Bill should take the hint and focus on his influencer girlfriend’s career. What? Bill’s not such a football great (Brady was always the driving force, many are saying) and so she may dump him after Week 1.
OMG. I’m feeling hopeful. Bracing for a serious post-hope crash here.
Just think of all the money Trump is wasting on these stupid “for show” efforts. Money that could be spent helping needy Americans.
That’s the sound of me deleting the ChatBot app on my phone. Bye, bye, Elon.
Once a shit, always a shit. These sociopaths never change.
Every one of these shooting incidents serves as inspiration for the next crazy person to pick up his/her own AR-15 in search of satisfying an imagined grievance none of us will ever understand, most hideously including the loved ones left behind.
The Elon Shine seems to be wearing off.
This would be an important statement at the time of yet another school shooting. From the podium, Leavitt may chide Americans wanting more than “thoughts and prayers” but banning assault weapons in the state would be an important step. Let the gun nuts challenge this overdue legislation.
IT’S THE GUNS, PEOPLE !!!!!
I know. The more Noem speaks the more she sounds like a moron. How did this woman govern North Dakota ? Or was it South Dakota ? Guess that answers the question.
Now maybe NYT shouldn’t fire every headline writer.
Come on. This trick pony got old a dozen “important announcements” ago.
One more @radiofreetom “let’s understand the right’s point of view” pieces and I will be forced to unsubscribe. By Loyal Atlantic Reader/Usually in the Bag By Early Afternoon Wine Mom
Decade a subscriber but they need to cut this BS. And avoid Tom Nichols pieces as well or this subscriber will rethink her “liberal Atlantic vibes” readership
Help me, Jesus.
I love you, NYT Pitchbot. This one made me laugh out loud.
Buster, you’ve landed on your paws. Dogs are smart/sensitive and Buster looks totally into his many “looks”. As a dog mom who buys her two rescue pups pjs also, good for you both.
Many happy returns, Clyde. You are a real cutie, and I always look forward to seeing you in George’s feed.
No one should ever say RFKJr.’s name in the same sentence with Michelle Obama, let alone COMPARE them.
Tom never seems to back down, one of his serious weaknesses as a commentator. And ends up mostly wishy washy in the middle, both siding important and clear issue positions.
Hopeful
Start posting here, Gavin.
Please
JD has so little to do as VP that he has to concern himself with where and when Taylor and Travis will marry. Doubt you will get an invite, JD, so no need to keep free the many days you have sitting scowling next to Trump in the Oval Office Enjoy it now as you will never get there on your own.
Maybe crazy but my personal terror is ebola reaching the United States. Would be horrifying.
Is there a website or other place to follow this campaign, donate, or participate in rallies ? I live in DC and think that getting masks off agents is essential to lawful policing.
Exactly. How does Pitchbot improve on the ridiculousness of that headline? I’ve noticed he more and more is just posting the NYT headline with a “lol” comment.
This is North Korean style dear leader worship. No kings, no dictators in America.
Cassidy knows Kennedy is a menace to US public health. As a physician, did his vote to confirm Kennedy violate his Hypocratic oath ?
So much for the “peacemaker” yearning for his Nobel Prize.
My thoughts exactly.
Pence joins the Resistance.
Never was a Bolton fan but seriously warming to the guy
Well, Melania did get here on a genius visa so seems appropriate. Melania AI meme coins to follow.
Greenwald is becoming a parody of himself.
780 million didn’t sufficiently catch Murdoch’s attention. If this keeps up the Dems might be with Justice Thomas in dumping NYT v Sullivan. Soon be litigating how much you can tarnish someone’s name and avoid damages if after a string of false claims you blithely throw in “just my opinion, folks”
My current Bluesky crush
Giving NYT Pitchbot a run for his money.
But, my dear, these people are dipshits. This is just one of the latest example showing those running our government do not know what they are doing.
In the 2025 political landscape, Mamdani is a wonder and a breath of fresh air. Is it any wonder that voters are drawn to him and his message?
Can the right go lower or get more petty ? This crosswalk was a memorial to the victims of a horrific crime. Christian values ? Not so much.
Vance, too much wimp to face serious people and serious issues, hides behind Trump and throws spitballs. Juvenile delinquent.
Maybe he thinks it would be very cool for him to share the Nobel with Vlad, another noted peacemaker who never got his well deserved Peace Prize.
Thank you. Decent people need to provide consequences for this outrageous behavior, however small.
Someone from the community, please identify this jerk (along with any business interests associated with him) so that others can avoid him and his interests if they choose to do so. Decent people have to “shun” these jerks so that their jack ass stunts have real repercussions.
Maybe Teumpnis trying to Impress the tourists here.
The unspoken “Trump looks very weak and outmatched here”.
This starts as “tired”, moves to “listless but addled” to full on “the Cabinet needs to invoke 25” as “the guy has lost it plain and simple”. Leavitt will say Trump working 20 hour days while playing four rounds of golf every week, “a man half his age would look tired.” And so it begins . . .
These tweet writers are nothing short of brilliant. I could not love these posts more. Go Gavin Christopher Newson.
Trump is insane, one can only hope the GJ will refuse to indict.
No worries as the dead will all be poor people for the wealthy will fly to European capitols to get their bird flu jab, and do a little sightseeing
Simmer down, you pedantic, narcissistic excuse for an intellectual.
Dark but funny
This can’t be a true post, can it ? This guy is supposedly a law professor. Oh, oh I get it. “Culinary crimes”? Suppose to be a joke, right? Nothing worse than a truly unfunny law professor trying to make a joke. SNL has to spoof this guy soon. South Park ? Anyone?
Insanity thy name is Trump.
Someone keep us DC residents posted re court dates. Would like to attend to support this guy, shake his hand.
Extra pickles, please
President Math Illiterate strikes again.
George, you are having too much fun with this.
