  1. On #MeetThePress, after Kristen Welker plays him clips of controversial Hasan Piker comments and asks him to react to them, Rep. Jaime Raskin said: "I think all of that is an irrelevant distraction."

    I agree with Rep. Raskin.

  2. On #MeetThePress:
    WELKER: "Sen. Susan Collins says Trump's Canada tariffs will increase costs on American families. Is she right?"

    SEN. TIM SCOTT: "Let's look back at Joe Biden ..."

    WELKER: "Wait. Pres. Trump has been in office for two years. Inflation was at 3% when Biden left office. It's at 3.4% right now."

    SCOTT: "Joe Biden ..."

    WELKER: "The Biden administration is over!"

  3. "Leader" Jeffries with an astonishingly ignorant reply to Welker's fishing expedition on Democratic Socialist. Jeffries is being led around by the nose here rather than taking control of this interview. Its an appallingly weak performance by Jeffries. #meetthepress #mtp

  4. Todd Blanche is just lying his way through this #MeetThePress interview. Every response of his, is a lie, obfuscation, bad faith.. appalling. Liar.

    "Trump just now on #MeetThePress says he got a call last night from Sen Graham saying he just landed from Ukraine, and that he’d said he was a little tired, but that they’d talked about the SAVE America Act.

    A staffer sent Trump a message at 1am that Graham had just passed away"

    "Trump says"

    Take that for what it's worth

    "...they’d talked about the SAVE America Act."

  6. Lindsey Graham was scheduled to be on #MeetThePress today.
    In response to today's news, JHawleyStan wrote:

  7. Vice Pres. JD Vance said on #MeetThePress: "If you go back to World War II or every major conflict in human history, they all ended with some kind of negotiation."

    Me: Then why did Donald Trump demand an "unconditional surrender" from Iran (before Trump dropped that demand because he is too weak to continue to insist on it)?

    World War II did not end with some kind of negotiation. Both Germany and Japan unconditional surrendered.

    The Research

    Roy Baumeister at Florida State University spent decades studying the relationship between self-image and aggression. His findings overturned a widely held assumption about confidence and power.

    The popular belief was that aggression comes from low self-esteem. That people who feel bad about themselves lash out. Baumeister’s research told a more complicated and more disturbing story. The people most prone to explosive aggression are not people with low self-esteem. They are people with inflated, unstable self-esteem. People who think very highly of themselves but whose self-image has no foundation underneath it.

    When that self-image is challenged, the nervous system reacts before the conscious mind can intervene. There is no reflection, no consideration, no processing of the incoming information. There is only the threat response. And the threat response has one goal: eliminate the source of the challenge.

    Baumeister called this threatened egotism. And his research showed it is one of the most reliable predictors of human aggression across cultures, contexts, and situations.

    The angrier the reaction, the more fragile the ego that produced it.

  10. For the rest of today, to honor the USA's current chief executive and that country on its 250th anniversary, I will be ending all my Mastodon posts with the words: "Sorry. Let's call it quits because I've had enough. Thank you, darling. Have a good time."

  11. After his unfair treatment by mean Kristen Welker on Meet the Press Sunday, Trump is consoled with a Diet Coke juice box by head of the CBS news team, Bari Weiss.

  12. #Trump is completely insane. Does he act like this with foreign leaders? He can’t handle being challenged at all. No wonder all his cabinet does is flatter & lie to him. Try to deal in facts & truth & he turns into a toddler having a temper tantrum.
