Sometimes I think an open minded moderate interests no one and angers everyone... Other times I think I'm just bad at Twitter. – at Oconomowoc, WI

Actual quote: [As Putin] "You mean they're going to sanction me? -- You mean they're not going to blow me to pieces (he pauses, because he knows he can't say that)... at least psychologically?" I dare someone to explain to me what course of action Trump is promoting here.
Trump calls Putin smart, says NATO is not so smart, and calls our leaders dumb
Hey @TtimeSTL @CPFCToronto @PatrickEagles15 — LOVED the post game chat. Im out here in the Midwest, with hardly a Palace fan to be found... so I’m celebrating with you fine gentleman by proxy. This season could be so special. I’m absolutely wired! Up the Palace!

Literally, the three examples of voter fraud that he mentions have ZERO to do with Voter ID, even though he refers to ID as a 'quick fix' to each of them. Just another day of disinformation, as the GOP keeps trying to polish what even they know is a voter suppression turd.
We need to make sure we have secure elections. Voter ID is absolutely critical. It should be easy to vote, but hard to CHEAT in Minnesota.

This is why Tucker is nothing more than a shill. He brings someone on to talk about the verdict and then insists it's a non-issue -- he'd rather talk about 'bigger issues' -- as soon the guest deviates from his own meta-agenda.
Tucker Carlson had a complete meltdown tonight in response to a former New York corrections officer who criticized Derek Chauvin for using excessive force on George Floyd. Here's how the interview (abruptly) ended.

It shouldn’t take this much. It shouldn’t take a video. It shouldn’t take this much protest. It shouldn’t be this hard. George Floyd shouldn’t be dead. It shouldn’t be like this.

Shoutout to the healthcare pros and admins at the Mayo Civic Center in Rochester. Got my final shot today. In and out in less than 30 minutes (including mandatory 15 min ‘wait and see’ period). They’re running a smooth operation. @mnhealth @GovTimWalz @LtGovFlanagan

I think you gotta get more details before outright condemning Charles Barkley's hyper-ambiguous statement. But it's also kind of hilarious watching the GOP cheer him on. They love it when race discussions are reduced to these simplistic notions of 'good people' vs. 'bad people'.

The last four years will forever be known as ‘a crucible for the ages’
Just in the nick of time, two weeks after a literal authoritarian power grab, Glenn is once again concerned about ambiguous and hypothetical power grabs, a complaint I believe he patented in 2012.
If you are too young to remember the political rhetoric and climate that emerged in the weeks, months and even years after 9/11 -- the arguments made to justify endless power grabs and force & the demonization tactics used against those questioning it - it's worth reviewing.

But let's be real... we're all kinda disappointed that we don't get to witness him live tweeting his inevitable meltdown.

Would I finally get the attention I crave if I became the one person in American who JUST BECAME a Trump supporter?
Breaking News: The Georgia election was rigged. I repeat, the Georgia election was rigged. [just saying it out loud makes me laugh]
These scoundrels are only toying with the @sendavidperdue (a great guy) vote. Just didn’t want to announce quite yet. They’ve got as many ballots as are necessary. Rigged Election!

This is what happens when a maniac President repeatedly tells his delusional supporters that they're all the 'good guys' in some Tom Clancy novel.
A former Houston police captain is accused of a violent attempt to find evidence for an election conspiracy theory. He was working for a powerful Texas Republican activist's group, trying to investigate unsubstantiated claims of widespread voter fraud. bit.ly/3nngQIx
When a parody of Tucker Carlson is more authentic than the actual Tucker Carlson.
