  1. #RandiRhodes just updated her Substack (glad to see she's okay) and reminded everyone that as #DisasterDon was accusing #Biden of leaving him "an absolute mess", financial magazine "The Economist" called our economy: "The envy of the world" in October 2024 just before the election for the speed & strength at which we recovered from the #pandemic... doing so well we were basically propping other major Western nations with our buying power.

    And now, 10 months later…

  2. I HOPE EVERYONE is watching "Brett Breaks Things" every afternoon.

    Brett was #RandiRhodes' Producer before she had to leave to fight her cancer, and is doing an awesome job picking up the ball & running with it.

  3. To fellow fans of #RandiRhodes & The #RandiRhodesShow, she posted an update last night.

    She has lung cancer despite having given up smoking over 4 years ago. 🙁 It sounds pretty aggressive.

    She beat breast cancer a few years ago, but her Oncologist (of 10 years) never thought to screen her for lung cancer. 🤬

    The state of healthcare in this country:

  4. @steter Yesterday April 23 was her last show. Unspecified health reasons. Sad to see her go. Find her on Substack #RandiRhodes

  5. It seems like YouTube is throttling The Randi Rhodes Show. It is the only channel I've ever watched that winds up dead, with a spinner, after a few minutes.

  6. #RandiRhodes just now (quoting David Kay Johnston):

    "If you wanted to save the country $100Billion/year... that's how much we pay JUST IN INTEREST on the #Debt created by T****'s 2017 tax cuts... just repeal the tax cut and you save $100B. Then cancel #SpaceX's gov't contracts and you save another $18B. THERE! I just saved you more than #Musk has already 'saved' by firing tens of thousands of gov't employees." 👍
    #DisasterPresidency

  7. QUESTION: If he can #Declassify #TopSecret docs "just by thinking about it", WHY was this necessary? 🤔 #RandiRhodes

  8. INTERESTING THOUGHT:

    #RandiRhodes just wondered if #MafiaDon is picking losers to fill his Administration that HE can #blackmail to ensure their loyalty. 🤔

  9. #RandiRhodes played a video from #TheRecount (I'm still looking for it) listing T****'s "#DayOne" (or sooner) agenda: (he has already failed #3, saying WHILE he is president elect, he will get the leaders of #Ukraine & #Russia on the phone together and "end that war in one hour.") #RagingNarcissist #FailureInChief

  10. DID I HEAR THAT CORRECTLY???

    #RandiRhodes played a longer clip of of #NaziDon's Lititz, PA speech that starts a couple of minutes before he said, "I don't mind" if a shooter shoots The Media in order to get to him.

    He was rambling (natch) about a Greek supporter, questioning if he has "more Greek in himself" than the Greek man, starts rambling about his skin, then appears to say:

    "I HAVE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WHITE SKIN." 🤨

    I'm searching for the full video to clip it. #WhiteSupremacist

  11. I FORGET WHO MENTIONED THIS YESTERDAY (Keith #Olbermann? #RandiRhodes?) that #ElonMusk is running anti-#Harris ads in #Michigan targeting their large #Arab population claiming Harris "is too close to #Israel", and ads in #Pennsylvania claiming she's "too close to #Palestine/#Gaza."

    This kind of disingenuous racial manipulation truly exemplifies the T**** Campaign and voters need to be told. #Boost

  12. #RandiRhodes reminds us that today #Oct7 is *23rd* anniversary of the invasion of #Afghanistan after 9/11.

    Funny how in the full year since #Hamas attacked #Israel, have I heard anyone point out it was on that anniversary.

    I never considered that there may have been a link between the two. 🤔

  13. Heard on #RandiRhodes this afternoon:

    A young woman in GA named #AmberThurmin needed a simple post-birth medical procedure called a "dilation and curettage" (D&C) where "waste" left behind after a birth or abortion must be "cleaned out of the uterus".

    The hospital was unwilling to perform the simple procedure b/c according to the law, she wasn't "sick enough". 😞

    In horrible pain, the hospital made her wait in a hospital bed for 20 hours.

    She died an hour later. 🤬

  14. #RandiRhodes made an interesting point last Tuesday:

    #SteveBannon admitted to #ABC's #JonKarl that he "keeps in frequent contact with T****."

    "One of the rules of T****'s conviction/probation (as a #ConvictedFelon himself) is that he can not associate with other convicted felons… which #Bannon is, having just reported for prison on Monday."

    This is an automatic violation of his #Probation and T**** should be thrown in jail. But once again, the law does not apply to Donald T****. #AboveTheLaw

  15. @uspolitics @ThomHartmann
    #RandiRhodes says she thinks his teleprompter went out and he's pissed waiting for it to restart (you see him shaking his head at one point.) That's possible too.

    But either way, it still shows his inability to think on his feet when caught off guard.)

    Remember during the 2016 & 2020 campaigns, how often he accused Hillary & Biden of having to depend on a teleprompter. B/c as you know, #EveryAccusationIsAConfession. 🤦‍♂️

    #TrumpGlitches #TrumpFreezeUp

  16. "WHAT DOES THE #GOP STAND FOR ANYMORE? Character Matters? What happened to that?"

    Here's the clip from last nights #LastWord that you may have seen on #RandiRhodes this afternoon: msnbc.com/the-last-word/watch/

  17. @gavinisdie
    Show him the video.

    Also, somewhere out there is a video of all the times T**** openly supported #unions, followed by news clips of what happened to those jobs (eg: "#Carrier") after he took office. #RandiRhodes showed it on her show yesterday.

  18. (Porting my bookmarks):

    HERE'S THE VIDEO #RandiRhodes aired on her show today of Trump & his people in 2021 loading a half-dozen or so large boxes onto a Lear jet headed for his Bedminster Resort just 2 days after getting a call from the FBI asking him to return any classified documents. 🤔 dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1

  19. 🧵 (2\2) #RandiRhodes #MMFlint #Reparations
    And "dangerous" b/c it raises the specter of "okay, we've even now. No more need for #AffirmativeAction".

    No more #VotingRightsAct to protect minorities from #GerryMandering & #RedLining. Red States are *sure* to embrace this new "equality" and make it *illegal* for any business to "discriminate" (which they will define) against whites.

    "#Reparations" in the form of gov't services or opportunity is the way to go. But "cash" to individuals? Yeesh. 🤦‍♂️

  20. 🧵 (1\) #RandiRhodes #MMFlint The idea of "cash" #Reparations to *individuals* is not only ridiculous, but *dangerous*:

    If you're half-white, do you get only 1/2 the money? 1/8 white? Deduct 1/8th?

    What if your ancestors came from a FREE State? Are you still entitled to reparations? Some but not as much if your ancestors were slaves?

    Who pays to trace your family tree? Do we reimburse people the cost of documenting their lineage?

    My family came here LONG after slavery. 🤔

    (con't)...

  21. @Darksidestraxus
    As #RandiRhodes likes to point out:

    "[Pence] first looked for every opportunity to do the WRONG thing. He knew what T****'s plan was [#FakeElectors and disrupt #Jan6 certification). But he didn't call the FBI, he called Dan Quayle to find out if he could actually DO what T**** wanted."

  22. As #RandiRhodes pointed out, #Aldean does not live "in a small town" (Nashville) nor was he "born in a small town" (Macon, GA) and doesn't know what it's like to have lived in one.

    "B/c, if he had, he'd know MOST reports of (gun) violence (and #MassShootings) have taken place in "small towns" (Uvalde TX, Aurora CO, Rittenhouse in Kenosha WI, even Newtown CT.)

    Note, Aldean didn't include the Charlottesville Nazis or the #Jan6 riots either."

  23. HERE'S THE VIDEO #RandiRhodes aired on her show today of Trump & his people in 2021 loading a half-dozen or so large boxes onto a Lear jet headed for his Bedminster Resort just 3 days after getting a call from the FBI asking him to return any classified documents. 🤔 dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1

  24. ...and of course, it's a "temporary" #DebtCeiling deal that just kicks-the-can down the road until after the 2024 election. #RandiRhodes @RandiRhodes
