When you have no knowledge it makes you look foolish to hate something. Just bc some website or propaganda channel tells you NPR is hiding Fed money or undocumented migrants are getting social security $ that does not make it true. Verify before you hate. Always good policy.

@Deggans Good, it opens them up to discovery and we can finally see what NPR has been doing with our tax money

Something happened to Putin? A murderous dictator continued wantonly killing people and you’re just noticing now?

Acyn @Acyn

Trump on Putin: He's shooting rockets into cities. I don't like it at all.  Reporter: Mr.President, what do you want about that?  Trump: I’m going to tell you? You're the fake news, aren't you? https://t.co/l8NrPhvZge

The two arrogant age/related disasters: Biden thinking he could run again in his diminished state then Ginsburg thinking she could beat cancer indefinitely. Then Biden feckless border policy, then inflation. Hillary had much more chance than Bernie.

James Surowiecki @JamesSurowiecki

Biden's immigration "policy" (which I think was more like a careless non-policy) was the biggest mistake. I still don't understand what they thought the endgame was. https://t.co/drOMsy9718

The real effects of the bill will be apparent to your constituents by time you need their votes ago. Whatever is said now won’t matter. The people hurt by your vote will have the information they need.

Omaha World-Herald @OWHnews

Approximately 250 people gathered Sunday on the Memorial Park bridge over Dodge Street to bring attention to what they said is Rep. Don Bacon's "heart-breaking" vote in favor of the Republican budget bill. https://t.co/tmTYnRvla1

This humiliating statement by a legal rep of our govt and “ man of God” is essentially an endorsement of Trump’s infamous assertion that he could shoot somebody on 5th Ave with no consequences. No intention to hide, so harm but no foul, right, Mike?

Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump

Jake Tapper: You oversaw an investigation into Biden’s ties to Hunter’s questionable business dealings. You seemed to think that was your job back then. Speaker Johnson: Important distinction- President Trump does everything out in the open. https://t.co/jbNkVTBG3u

For Mike Johnson, brazenness is next to godliness.

State of the Union @CNNSOTU

.@jaketapper presses @SpeakerJohnson about President Trump's dinner for investors in his personal cryptocurrency. Johnson says Trump isn't trying "to hide anything." https://t.co/DKlXEABP0g

Repubs are always trying to bury their heartlessness in claims of laziness in ppl on aid. The numbers cited are usually wildly off but it doesn’t matter bc once the bill passes they don’t give a damn abt whomever it affects. It’s their secret weapon: they just don’t care.

Aaron Rupar @atrupar

BRENNAN: Nearly 200,000 Louisianans will lose their Medicaid. How do you defend that to your constituents? MIKE JOHNSON: If you are able to work and you refuse to do so, you are defrauding the system, you're cheating the system, and no one in the country believes that's right. https://t.co/Ag2rBqXcFu

Replies are fascinating. Many praising the sketch, others saying not funny. Which only proves humor like everything else comes down to taste. I think it’s really funny and sort of perfect example of tone of the show’s early years. Irreverence has big place. Buck almost always hit

Danny Deraney @DannyDeraney

45 years ago tonight, the last episode to feature members of the original cast of SNL aired. And it ended with a banger. Lord and Lady Douchebag. 😂😂 https://t.co/PN0QjbBYbc

It’s not really comical, of course, tho it is absurd. Ppl making laws that will affect every life in America, many for the extreme worse, unable to stay awake bc those crafting the cruelty want it done in dead of night to minimize exposure.

Inside Politics @InsidePolitics

"He fell asleep in the back - no kidding!" Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle were spotted dozing off in recent days as President Trump's megabill advanced during a flurry of late-night meetings and all-nighters at the Capitol. @mkraju reports. #InsidePolitics https://t.co/tJuCd9HIIS

How much more like Sgt Schultz could this guy sound? “I see nothing! I know nothing!” Hey Mike, the term is “plausible deniability,” not ludicrous, humiliating, laughable deniability.

Aaron Rupar @atrupar

TAPPER: I really have a difficult time imagining that if this was a Democratic president holding a dinner for top investors in his private cryptocurrency, you wouldn't be outraged MIKE JOHNSON: Look, I don't know anything about the dinner. I was a little busy this past week, so https://t.co/kYJPKbl67k

Aside from resentment that the team he plays for stirs in many fans, what is there not to like about Judge? Spectacular generational player, utterly dominant in every hitting category the past 2 years, great team guy, never a showboat, no scandal, no controversy. So, what is it?

chris 🏹🐦 🐽 @Waggss89

@Buster_ESPN Do any of his war points come off if I don’t like him personally?

Soto is too good, consistently. He will get hot, tho unlikely as good as last season. For one thing, and I believe Jon has been among the few mentioning this, he looks a bit out of shape. Like maybe 10 pounds heavier. No excuse for taking that much $ and not being at peak fitness

Jon Heyman @JonHeyman

https://t.co/M8ccDckP6z. Soto denies it’s the record contract but change is hard. “It takes time. It’s not that easy to adjust to a place. Definitely, some places are easier to adjust to than others.” (Me: Agreed, but at .236 it’s hard not to think it’s the contract)

The reason they don’t get exhausted is bc they have unwavering conviction that Trump is infallible. That makes defending him no sweat. Every charge against him, even accompanied by overwhelming evidence is fake, made up. Judgements against him are all biased.

Turnbull @cturnbull1968

It must be absolutely exhausting to be a Trump pundit that has to defend a new insanity on a daily basis. https://t.co/FkgBRTRawk

The thing is, will you keep saying this when kids without health care start getting sick and dying? Your version is not being backed up by objective sources. 14 million losing health care? Will you be able to sleep when they start dying?

Rep. Don Bacon 🇺🇸✈️🏍️⭐️🎖️ @RepDonBacon

We strengthened Medicaid for those who need it. Work requirements for abled bodied adults without children saves over $300B according to the CBO. Keeping ineligible people off Medicaid saves approx $200B more. We want Medicaid for those who need it.

Ichiro deserves a place but the team surely has to include the best hitter of this and many other generations.

Michael Lackey @mlackey2051

@SteveJackman @notgaetti @jaysonst I thought the same thing

Judge is the most dangerous, non steroid hitter since Ted Williams and has more power. Have you seen all the categories he has led MLB in over last two seasons? This exercise makes zero sense without him in there.

トーマス良い人生 🇺🇸 ⚓️ @havahddddkehd

@LocalJoe2112 @notgaetti @jaysonst Judge is a BEAST at the plate, love his bat. But, I chose Mookie because of both his bat and his defense. 8x All-Star 3x World Series 6x Gold Glove 7x Silver Slugger Batting Title ML PoY Wilson Overall Defensive Player of the year

How can this be legal? Targeting a private institution bc they won’t kowtow to your bullying? How is this different from straight-up Mob intimidation?
