Think of how much time we have all wasted because he has sucked the oxygen out of our lives for the last almost 10 years. We can't wait for the day to come when he is out of our life and our daily consciousness. This loser and animal needs to be put away.
I am sick of hearing that keeping Trump off ballots or prosecuting him would rip the country apart, esp. by Dem operatives (looking at you,
@davidaxelrod
)
The country has been ripped apart for the last 8 years. It is time to put these criminals where they belong: prison.
So disappointed in Jon Stewart and The Daily Show last night. That was an epic fail. I won't be watching, going forward. Both-sidesism is what has gotten us here and is eating us alive.
Watch Stephen Colbert
@colbertlateshow
. He gets it.
@OurShallowState
Yes, exactly. It is a temperament he exudes often. It is exactly what our country needs. He is one of few statesman able to raise us as a whole and cast a compelling vision, one, especially, that is genuinely hopeful and even joyful.
He is a sociopath who, by now, should be under some significant restraint or restriction as ordered by the court. He will not abide by the results of an election, he will not agree to no violence, and he has told us he wants to be a dictator. What more do we need?
@maggieNYT
@leelynkids
Maggie, how about this?
Since the electorate clearly distanced itself from Trump and MAGA last night, MAGA is waning. How about we quit spending all our energy on Trump, not report on his every move (in fact, quit giving him attention at all), & report on real & healthy things?

I am not dissing the Cubs here, but they didn't "do the right thing." The jerk behind the kid knew the ball wasn't for him and should never have put his mitts on it. All those around should have shamed the guy & his wife to give the ball to the kid, who was the intended recipient
@JoeNBC
This is a reprehensible tweet, Joe. He communicates quite well. You know it. You are stoking arrogant, shameful disdain for a high quality person running against a certifiable conman.
Go away, Joe. We don't need your kind around here.
#NoMoreMorningJoeEver
@OurShallowState
Thank you for this. TY for acknowledging legitimate reactions and feelings. TY for not telling us to "Calm down!"
I'll still be concerned over Trump's followers who act out his desires, that some justice seemingly can't be swifter, and that a nation awaits clearer communication

John, I am Senior Pastor of an almost exclusively white suburban ELCA church in a conservative enclave of Minneapolis-St. Paul. Not only the sermon but also the prayers include significant time spent on violence against people of color.

Timeless truth: The sons of oligarchs and the rich are hardly ever those doing battle in wartime. To the rich go the spoils of war, including the ability for people to not serve their country because of things like bone spurs. Completely infuriating.
Tonight, can we Dems be united? Centrists, Progressives, all in between, can we talk, tweet, & respond with fervent support for our President, our full party, and a strong confidence about our path together? Can we not carp at or undercut each other? Can we own tonight together?
@MuellerSheWrote
I read the whole thread before it got blocked. I believe I even reposted it. I should have taken screenshots. Cruz is doing nothing but taking bribes from corporate America.
I still don't think we realize how extreme, in every way, Trump & the GOP are. Listening to Biden, or reading his tweets, or listening to the calmness of real professionals during these tense days is a balm that heals the soul. We have endured PTSD from the GOP & Trump for 4 yrs
@FLOTUS
It is aberrant and abhorrent that you say this, Melania. You haven't done one thing to advance the health of the black community. Not one thing. And you have not done anything to defy the white supremacy of your husband. You should be ashamed at a tweet like this. Take it down.
@jamievllr
This is exactly the right question.
@chrislhayes
, since you were so surprised at last night's results, maybe you want to take a cue from here and redirect your gaze away from shiny object DeSantis to solid politician Whitmer and people like her who are getting things done.
@RBReich
I love your perspective almost all the time, sir, but this one is off. It was a strong, realistic speech for this time. It was hopeful and relevant. It was honorable and came from a statesman. I must disagree with you, respectfully.
Bye, Spotify Premium. After today, not sad to see you go. You blew it with choosing a conspiracy theorist and liar over a music icon like

@AdamKinzinger
@sandibachom
Thank you for this refreshing epiphany and honesty, Congressman. The only other vote of yours I especially am pained over is your vote against voting rights. We can't understand, other than a lust for raw power, how anyone can vote against this Constitutional right for all.
@PattyArquette
And Matt Gaetz.
And the CFO, that guy, Weisselberg.
And Jared Kushner.

And Barr.
And Nunes.

@tribelaw
It should be clear, from here on out, that expanding the court can't be seen as a political move. It would be a move back toward an ethical, balanced apolitical court.

We need you and a fiery spirit now more than ever, Senator! Thank you, thank you for continuing to go to bat for the American people. This cannot stand, as it is.

@playbookplus
It's so incredibly sad to see that Republicans truly do not ever adjust their playbook in order to help our country. They continue the same tired diatribe of always blaming someone else, gaslighting, and blatantly being hypocritical, ad nauseum. It has destroyed our politics.
@SenMastriano
There is no mounting evidence. This is a profound lie.
You will not be without consequences for doing this.
It is also sedition against America.
@JoyceWhiteVance
It should merit pre-trial detention. His propensity to do this has gotten ridiculous. It has been part of his game forever. And, obviously, it has worked.
@NormOrnstein
It is the moderators' job to do that. Joe Is given his time to lay out his platform. He shouldn't have to spend his time countering every lie. Or any lie, for that matter.
@thatsjsho
@BlackKnight10k
Don't tell him to "Whoa." This is exactly what Trump has promised to do.
We are WAY past the "You're overreacting" phase of life in America. Have you been asleep?
I am not the first and will not be the last to share this graphic from Adam Schiff. It needs to be shared far and wide. It is what this next year is all about.
@duty2warn
America is not a Viktor Orban country. The GOP and CPAC may think it is, but the vast majority of us are not white supremacists. His message should be countered and pushed back on aggressively.
@SenWhitehouse
It's a unique process, to be sure, but your words are especially helpful today, Sen. Whitehouse. Thanks for this perspective and your excellent leadership. We are grateful for you.
Donald J. Trump is the greatest traitor in history to the United States of America.
Anyone else pales in comparison. Benedict Arnold. The Rosenbergs.
Everything he has done is an American sell-out and is self-aggrandizing greed and dishonesty.
Do something, DOJ!!!!!
This is an emergency now. Trump has threatened to bind and tie up the President of the United States and throw him into the back of a pickup.
Do something!!
#DoSomethingDOJ
@TheJusticeDept
I don't want to hear any more about Kellyanne Conway.
This woman concocted evil schemes that wrecked the fabric of our national life. She needs to go home and work on her parenting with her daughter. We cannot have her involved in anything else anymore.
@HKrassenstein
"My final word to all of you is that, as a nation, we must put an emphasis on fact-checking, sourcing and discredited blatant and not-so-blatant conspiracy theories. Lies are the weapons used by those who want to deceive the world for power."
Thx for everything, Krassensteins!
Observations on a poignant photo that has captured the emotions of people across our nation & even world are forthcoming.
But, for now, for the common good, the good people of the world, including us who read this, must trust each other and press on together for racial justice.
@RBReich
Indeed. Theoretically, this could have global impact, also.
If one young, unqualified, unelected person has this kind of unilateral power, our system needs immediate overhaul and protections.
@BarbMcQuade
Wow, this is impressive. I am only a layperson - not a lawyer - but here is a document showing the work to be done. Logical. Coherent. Compelling. Damning.
What do you say,
@DOJCrimDiv
@TomJChicago
You don't have to be any kind of expert to see Trump is lying. All you have to know is that he lies all the time. He never tells the truth. Let's get past any illusion at all that this guy ever tells the truth.
@BaddCompani
This is not surprising, but also incredible and revolutionary. Someone has finally admitted complete manipulation of people using Christian faith as the hammer.
This should throw the entire evangelical and conservative Christian world into free-fall. It won't, but it should.
@LorraineEvanoff
@DCGrandma52
Sorry, but I can't stop laughing at winning the "April Fool’s Day trip covered by the fundamentalist Christian group Answers in Genesis."
These jokes write themselves.
@CraigRozniecki
MAGA GOPism is a cancer. It is as threatening to everyone's health and life as any other metastasis of cells in the body. It needs to be excised from our body politic.
@SykesCharlie
@jmart
Hasn't Biden practically had to move heaven and earth to save our country and democracy, already? Should he have to reach out to all kinds of people who, especially as of late, didn't do a whole lot to stand up to Trump or do their part to save our democracy? Come on!
@DonLew87
@RonFilipkowski
It is also painful to hear Kristi Noem, who thinks an awful lot of herself, unjustifiably IMO, matronize him and to see Herschel just go along with it. Wrong and revolting on so many levels.
Nicely done tonight on Joy,
@glennkirschner2
Your perspective is clarifying and helpful. You and
@neal_katyal
are a formidable team to listen to and learn from. Thank you, sirs!
@RiegerReport
"And Kamala Harris will have no right...."
Good on Pence for saying Trump was wrong and un-American, but any allusion to Kamala Harris thinking she may have a right to overturn an election in the future borders on character assassination. Why can't these guys just be statesmen?
I love
@msnbc
. Certainly, not all anchors are equal. I don't give them equal time either. But, why, MSNBC, do you insist on airing Trump's stupid "pressers?" They've become a circus. Can someone explain this to us? I really don't want to turn you off. Rachel is too valuable alone
This is an incredible article. Thanks, Kareem. "Rodgers’ ignorance regarding the science of immunology brings back to life the old stereotype of the big dumb jock. His utter lack of even the most basic knowledge and logic is shocking."

Yikes, that puts my sub-100k salary in, where, the basement? And, I have a Master's Degree as a requirement for my profession to go with it, to boot.
@TheRealHoarse
Disagree. Bennie was good, direct, and serious. This is what is needed. He also has clearly set up Liz Cheney as an incredibly powerful voice.
@BrynnTannehill
The GOP created its own mess. No sympathy. In fact, one hopes they implode under the weight of constant internal fighting or vacuousness.
@matthewjdowd
It is positive, Matthew. Coming from me, a 30-year mainline ELCA pastor, I am proud of your words and heartily support your candidacy and perspective.
@DrOz
What does "closely monitoring" all entail for an unelected guy like you? Do you think people are waiting on you for some kind of authorized decision, or are you also trying to portray some made-up authority? Or is this more in the realm of "thoughts and prayers?"
@ReverendWarnock
Indeed, joy does come in the morning. It was a four-years-long night of weeping, but joy has come!
Congratulations, Reverend. We are grateful for you.
@sarahkendzior

What the...?! This is crazy, Sarah. What happened? I've read you for a long time. This perspective is way off. I and my whole extended family are the president's base, as are millions of others.
@SherylBecker
@WalshFreedom
His comments also leave out massive corporate greed and over-pricing, as well. Gone are the days of any sense of ethics in business.
@Sen_JoeManchin
Too little, too late.
You could see this during each confirmation hearing, but you chose to ignore it. We could see it here from a thousand miles away.
This is a very sad day, not least of which is because you and others played politics and took care of only yourself.
@BeschlossDC
Sometimes when insidiously wicked and evil people want to control a nation, they try to burn the place down, including the minds of its people.
@HoarseWisperer
Something good is that you queue up this same project every Friday. We need this. For all our honesty about the reality of things, we still need visionaries and hope. It's incumbent upon all of us to have feet in both worlds and to envision a good life that others may not see.

@JoeBiden
Love this! How transformational would it be if President Biden's kindness made its way into a second term and continued to chip away at the hardness of heart of what has plagued us in the last 10 years, at least?
"Hate cannot cast out hate. Only love can." - MLK, Jr.
@RonFilipkowski
That's hilarious. Freedom, cheap gas, morality, and inflation on the decline is all due to Biden. These people tell themselves anything they want.
It's not "Will Smith did what?" No, he shouldn't have slugged Rock. But Rock, in the first place, should never have gone after Jada's vulnerability. That is NEVER right. Rock was wrong. Period.
@thejackhopkins
@sandiechill
Saw the same exact post and had the same exact reaction as you.
Too many smart people are wondering how a person can have 10 contempt charges against him and not go to jail like everybody else would.
@BananaBanana151
@davidmackau
Rock was inappropriate in ever way. Should Smith have hit him? No, certainly not. But Rock made a very disgusting personal sleight against Will's wife and something she had no control over.
@MilesTaylorUSA
Tired of lowest unemployment in yrs? Tired of well-managed int'l relations and leadership? Tired of a president managing well this time of war? Tired of admin that has brought global respect back? Tired of admin that brought Intelligence to pandemic response? Tired of what?
@MeidasTouch
It has. Sadly, tho, I don't think they care. They want this. They are drunk on their power binge. They fully believe they've got this. They're massively dangerous right now. They feel righteous.
@Mollyploofkins
@SylviaZ1913
Agree. Her tune has changed and she has gotten more bold in the last week or so. I'm still waiting for her to say she would never endorse Trump, however. She is straddling the fence still. The pardon of Trump was a big tell. It should still be disqualifying for her.
