Trump lawyer on cross: “Isn’t it true Ms. Wheel, that Trump was right when he said ‘you’ll be so tired of winning!’… if he meant Putin, Bonesaw MBS or Netanyahu?”
[drops mic, along with any pretense of protecting the USA, while maybe earning some new Florsheims that- unlike Lil Marco’s”- fit?] 🇺🇸🪚🪆
An important thread. But something is missing.
The refusal of Republicans to hold Trump accountable AND ALSO to exercise the least little responsibility on confirmations would have mitigated this risk.
Joni Ernst, Thom Tillis, Murkowski and Collins all KNEW Whiskey Pete would push war crimes.
Might help to picture the audience in their underwear, or at least swathed only in thin ribbons, like those carved marble cherubs 🤔

We warned you Islamophobic policies would eventually affect your rights too.
“Case was seen as major test of the first amendment and whether the US could use broad anti-terrorism statute to prosecute leftwing protesters”
It’s all so much worse than we can comprehend or acknowledge.
@Israel_katz O Translated from Hebrew Show original & Justice has been done. I welcome the decision of the Chief Military Prosecutor, Major General Itai Ofir, to close the Sde Teiman cases against IDF soldiers and to cancel the indictment against them. This trial was born in sin by the previous Military Advocate General, using a blood libel against IDF soldiers and criminal investigation methods, and I am glad that justice has been done and the trial has been canceled. The role of the ID's legal system is to protect and safeguard IDF soldiers who engage heroically in war against cruel monsters, and not the rights of the terrorists of Hamas. I am convinced that the decision will lead to a new path. Rate this translation: B Q 9:49 AM • Mar 12, 2026 • 226K Views
And read what Israel’s defense minister says the purpose of the legal system is. (Hint: not to prosecute crimes).
Hegseth: Why do the headlines say inflammatory things like “war intensifies”?
Pentagon official press release 3 days ago: Hegseth says war intensifies
Headline: “Strait of Hormuz Is Open”
Article: “[repeats headline] Hegseth said. “The only thing prohibiting transit… is Iran shooting at shipping… It’s open… should Iran not do that”
See Libs, he’s Making America Better!
It’s now better should Hegseth not do his job, war crimes, or speak 🇺🇸🤦♂️

So if anybody -- state attorneys general, Democratic politicians, sentient beings -- doesn't understand why Paramount Skydance's takeover of Warner Bros./CNN is a huge problem, Pete Hegseth is here to explain it to you.
Stop the propaganda. Block this merger.
One of the problems in a concentration camp regime is that institutions tend to respond to authority the way they always have, and are often incapable of shifting gears to acknowledge in any panoramic way exactly how bad the situation as a whole has become.

Only Ron Howard could’ve convinced her to play this character, and she was spectacular
To summarize, Trump has offered asylum to Iran’s women’s soccer team and death to its men’s.
I had thought this was OBVIOUSLY satirical but since I just got an interview request from a major news network, apparently not.
The Trump administration could really restore confidence by getting the entire Cabinet to ride a tanker through the Straits of Hormuz to show everyone how safe and easy it is now.
They could bring along a lot of MAGA influencers and Fox News hosts to broadcast it all live!
As a divorced guy (diff than divorce-guy😉) 2 roads led out of that dark wood: stay in anger/blame or look in a mirror, read J.Hollis, therapy to exorcise haunting family dysfunction
Misery loves company so i would’ve been welcomed to the 1st path. SO glad I chose the 2nd. It made all the difference
You read the post on Tuesday! Now listen to the podcast episode on divorce-guy risk-taking and why Trump is never going to stop. (Just keep in mind that I'm talking about a specific subset of divorce guys here—a staggering number of whom happen to work for Trump.)
Two weeks ago.
Trump has tremendous difficulty with principled people (even if as with the Iranian regime, the principles are bad). He assumes everyone is a transactional fraud like him. Works well with rich Americans and poorly with idealists of any stripe
