Starting to wonder if Obama, a Fox News student, knew his joke would lead to days of "let's all celebrate the White House renovations!" coverage.
Not since Republicans pretended to be outraged on behalf of Cracker Barrel Americans have they landed such a game-changing blow.

Real talk- why did you delete all your old tweets about Graham Platner? Do you plan on ever doing any "deeper interrogating work" on your role there?

Agreed, we must lose, and lose, then lose again, and never win because apparently what you're describing is worse than continuously losing.

Elon Musk has spent more money on American elections in the last two years than George Soros has in his entire life.

I heavily disagree with some of Lula’s foreign policy but democracy, civil liberties, and the Amazon Rainforest will continue to be protected in Brazil and that’s a big deal. Brazil saw what Trump did when he came back and didn’t want to see a Bolsonaro 2.0. God Bless Brazil!🇧🇷

In the end, Brazil really did teach the United States a lesson. They jailed the fascist, and then they defeated his political heir.

Félicitations, Président @LulaOficial, pour votre réélection au Brésil. Les relations entre le Canada et le Brésil ont progressé grâce à notre partenariat. Saisissons cette occasion pour les renforcer davantage, ensemble – afin de créer de nouvelles perspectives commerciales prometteuses, de protéger l'environnement et d’assurer une plus grande prospérité à nos deux populations.

Huge democratic breakthrough in Serbia tonight, followed by a Lula win in Brazil! Amazing day for democratic renewal. Bad day for illiberal populists.

In Serbia and Brazil, pro-democracy/anti-fascist forces have won. Congratulations to Lula and the student protests of Serbia!

Vivek is learning the hard way that there's exactly one man in America who gets to be an irredeemable degenerate, and the rules still apply to everyone else.

Some of these partisan-turnout numbers among younger voters are nuts. In NC, 55,291 Dems (18-29yo) have voted; just 11,982 GOPers (18-29yo) have done so. In 2024, the two parties were almost even among 18-29 early voters. Does NCGOP expect those young GOPers to vote on E-Day? – at Gettysburg, PA
18-29 turnout by party reg in NC second table is what percentage of total votes is coming from 18-29 voters, overall a meaningfully younger electorate than 2022 so far, but very asymmetric

Democrats can just run this clip verbatim in their ads and that's a wrap.
TRUMP on HIGH GAS PRICES: We’re making money like we’ve never made before. They’ll say: President Trump is bragging about all the money they're making while people are suffering at the pump. I don’t give a damn. We’re making a freaking fortune.

This is totally dishonest. The White House didn’t work with Pope Leo XIV on securing this temporary ceasefire. Leo XIV was involved with this for months. Even while he was in the hospital recovering from lung cancer surgery, he called Putin and then Zelenskyy. The pope wasn’t a supporting actor. He was the protagonist.
Melania Trump tells me she spoke to both Zelensky and Putin about the Ukraine ceasefire: “We talked. We signed the agreement.” She thanked Pope Leo for his support and didn’t rule out a trip to Ukraine. POTUS said she’s doing better than his advisers.

Gender reassignment surgery cost upwards to $100,000 yet these brainwashed MAGAs thinks the science teacher is doing it for free between PE and math class. It’s literally impossible to overstate how fucking ill-informed these people are.

It's frightening that the swingiest voters are the ones who don't know who controls Congress.
New: Low-info voters, who put Trump in the White House, now look even more anti-Trump than high-info voters, and give Dems bigger margins on the generic ballot. 1 out of 3 Trump voters who can't name the party in charge of Congress now back Dems for 2026 gelliottmorris.com/p/poll-lo…

Politics is a tough sport, no contesting that, but there are lines that you can consciously decide to stop at. Someone’s childhood sexual abuse is a firm red line and everyone but Vivek understands that.
INSANE. Vivek Ramaswamy says Dr. Acton’s childhood sexual abuse makes her “flawed” while being confronted yesterday
