In the last 50 years, only three presidents have reduced the deficit. They are the last three Democratic presidents. So which party is more fiscally conservative?
Colin Jost on Thursday night after watching the Republican response to the State of the Union speech:
“Honey, can you come help me at work on Saturday?”
The amazing Scarlett Johansson playing Katie Britt in the SNL cold open tonight.
If you were told:
“You are being relocated to another country and have 5 seconds to choose”, what country would be your answer?
Me: “Australia” and there would be 4 seconds left. 😂
@CarterCenter
If you believe that actions are more important than words, then Jimmy Carter should be your model of what someone should focus on after their presidency regardless of your politics.
Peace be with you President Carter. ❤️
Hey
@MSNBC
do you really think Andrea Mitchell is a net plus for your network?
Aren’t there plenty of talented women who could fill that slot and don’t believe we are still in the Reagan revolution or that trickle down economics works?
When she interrogates Dem women you lose.
Just a note to all the R’s posting after President Biden’s trip and fall today who keep emphasizing that he is 80:
Yes he is 80.
He is also probably more fit than most 50 year old Americans.
If you can’t bike an hour like the President, get your fat ass off Twitter.

Ari Melber’s interview of Peter Navarro was one of the most amazing live interviews I have ever witnessed. The running thread across most players in Coup City is that none of them know how to shut up. For that we are eternally grateful.

So, a thing happened last night.
I posted a full length video of Tracy Chapman & Luke Combs singing Fast Car at last night’s Grammys and 16M people found my post. 😳
Here are the numbers 24 hours later.
I’m not sure I can comprehend them.
I’ve connected with people I adore. ❤️

There are many battles yet to be fought and won, but I believe this period will be looked back on as the time people across the world stood up for their freedom and democracy and knew they were not alone.
The video from the Tracy Chapman Grammys performance of Fast Car with Luke Combs has been restored! ❤️
This is the post that had 20 million views in 36 hours before a false video rights claim was filed.
Dr. Anthony Fauci marked New Year’s Eve as also being his last day as Director the NAIAD and as President Biden’s chief medical advisor. He was the subject of CBS’s Last Minute tonight.
Signs that “This is Serious”
1) Jim Cantore of The Weather Channel reporting in the path of a storm
2) Wolf Blitzer of CNN broadcasting on a Saturday morning about the Russian armed rebellion.
With Chuck Todd’s announced departure from NBC’s Meet the Press, he is one of the top trending topics on Twitter.
Andrea Mitchell is also trending.
Not a coincidence.
If you are a person who believes that actions are more important than words, then Jimmy Carter should be your model of what someone should focus on after their presidency regardless of your politics.
Peace be with you President Carter. ❤️
@KHGlasgow
I feel very successful in having not watched or listened to Chuck Todd for a few years while simultaneously watching/listening to a lot of MSNBC. I don’t have a problem listening to someone with a different viewpoint, just as long as they are intellectually honest.
This will forever be a moment of TV magic as filming of The Colbert Late Show started just minutes after the Trump Indictment announcement by the New York Times. 💙
Matthew Dowd was on Deadline Whitehouse and called MTG, “Tonya Harding in a Fur Coat”.
Not sure that is fair.
Tonya Harding performed athletic tricks on ice.
MTG has turned tricks…oh, I see now. 😆
@AZ_Brittney
💙 Jimmy Carter is the model for all the good a person can do after their presidency.
In fact, he is a model for all the good anyone can do with their life. ❤️
Peace be with you President Carter. ❤️

My guess is that Perry was intentionally selected to be the first Congressional member to testify and the Committee had already chosen responses and actions. This is to set a precedent .
In South Korea 🇰🇷, the solar panels in the middle of the highway have a bicycle path underneath - cyclists are protected from the sun, isolated from traffic, and the country can produce clean energy.
Every time I listen to this Tracy Chapman Grammys song my eyes get misty. My late 20s were a special time in my life and this brings everything back. 😊❤️😎
Whatever happens to Twitter I can say:
I am followed by
@morgfair
@HeatherThomasAF
and
@juliann38915202
and my 20something 1980s self is so incredibly jealous. 😆
It is really cool that this app can make connecting with so many of you wonderful people a reality. ❤️
Projection: Elon is forced to sell his ownership of Twitter/X and Snoop Dogg leads a group of investors to take over the company.
The name is returned to Twitter, but is affectionately known as Twizzle. 😂
I’ve loved listening to Stephanie Ruhle for years because she is smart, informed and empathetic.
But I don’t get to see her often. She was on MSNBC tonight and I think I am smitten with this look. ❤️
I had a girlfriend who wanted to start role playing in the bedroom. Her favorite was “sexy librarian" where I had to sit quietly while she read a book. 😆
If you are Christian that believes actions are more important than words, then Jimmy Carter should be your model of what someone should focus on after their presidency regardless of your politics.
Love this! ❤️
Perhaps the clearest communication I have seen on how much Republican officeholders do not respect the intelligence of their supporters and how to have a conversation about it with those supporters.
Please share generously!
Once again I have been reminded:
Facebook is where you find that you no longer like the people you know
Twitter is where you find people you don’t know that you like
Thanks for being in the second group. 😘
80 year olds Mick Jagger, Paul McCartney and Joe Biden will tour the U.S. this summer to adoring, standing room only crowds!
They are thin, fit and deliver messages of hope, love and joy.

@ElayneBoosler
The fight for rights never stops. Sorry you misunderstood that it was a destination and not a perpetual journey. The Roe v Wade decision came before your 21st birthday. How much had you fought at that point? Love you, but you may want to rethink your outlook.
@FaithRubPol
I am an almost 62 year old former college runner and now cyclist and Joe Biden and I have fallen off our bikes the same number of times this year. It happens, especially if you are clipped in. If I am still doing hour long rides when I am 79 years old I will be ecstatic. Go Joe!
During the early days of the pandemic, I began ordering groceries and other things online. It continued because it also made a busy life a bit easier.
Events are convincing me I don’t really need to regularly go shopping in large public areas ever again.

In addition to being from a state that is most at risk for sea level rise from climate change, it is not clear if Ron DeSantis knows the difference between climate and weather.
When you realize the intro of the famous song "smoke on the water" by
@_DeepPurple
is the intro of Beethoven's 5th Symphony played backward.
Mind-blowing.
The only time I ever want to hear Donald Trump’s voice the rest of my life is while watching this brilliant
@sarahcpr
video!
😂😂😂
I want the Wikipedia page for his presidency to point to this video.
Linda Ronstadt was my first celebrity crush. Her poster was prominently displayed in my college dorm room. I got to hear her sing live in Pirates of Penzance twice. Listening to a song and hearing her hit high notes today still gives me chills. Just an incredible artist!
Ok folks, I’ve got to get to sleep. My alarm goes off far too soon.
It has been wonderful reading all your responses to the Tracy Chapman & Luke Combs Fast Car video. It will take me time to follow everyone back, but I will enjoy that as well.
I hope you have a great week! 😊
@7Veritas4
Americans consistently put Republicans above Democrats in polls on the economy. Not because of facts but because that is what they remember hearing.
Job creation, deficit reduction, heck even the stock market (not really an economic indicator) all do better with Dems in charge.
