Well, good to know that our abject failure is being used for good policy in other countries.

Rand Paul: "As far as reasons for the war, there have been many different ones floated, but none have been very convincing... we were told their nuclear weapons were obliterated, and now we're told their nuclear weapons are just moments away from being a bomb. I don't think the arguments are valid."
😕 🍪
This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics. It’s the root of all evil in Washington.
Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."
So we're all smarter than the Bank of America securities head of US Equity and Quantitative Strategy?
Among those allegations was that #Epstein took photos of her posing nude and tried to extort her mother to keep the images secret. Her mother couldn't afford what was demanded by Epstein, the allegations said, and she stole $22,000 from her real estate firm

Johnson: I think what we are learning from the Epstein files was a well-coordinated act of treason. If you think about how they use blackmail to get policymakers to act outside of the best interests of this nation and our Constitution, that’s treason.
So he’s surrendering without accomplishing any of his stated objectives while declaring victory. Exactly what we said would happen.
NBC’s Richard Engel: “The White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”
Frankly, if this comes as any surprise then you really need to start paying attention.
“The great irony and hypocrisy here is that these young men were good enough to perform at the United States Capitol building...they were not considered any kind of security threat to our country. They go from that last summer, less than a year ago, to sitting in a trailer-prison with their parents”
Totally normal that the #2 person at the DOJ civil rights division is asking me about a trial court denying our motion to intervene in a case DOJ is going to lose on the merits.
He clearly does not want you to stay informed by subscribing to Democracy Docket. Here is the link: bit.ly/4qmEiFz
Are we allowed to get the rest of the Epstein files now?
Lindsey’s diplomacy working wonders in UAE.
Contrasting MAGA Christian nationalism and Iranian Islamic Principlism
from Lanette Duke
A judge has confirmed what we have long known: Kari Lake took over not to lead the U.S. Agency for Global Media, but to dismantle it. This is a powerful affirmation of the rule of law, as threats to democracy loom not only around the world but here at home.

Every ICE officer who has broken the law should be arrested, tried, and imprisoned for their crimes.
Shapiro on SOTU: First off, it was boring. It was poorly delivered, and it was too damn long. This dude, who’s the worst orator of our time, did two hours. He comes off as totally unhinged. He’s like spitting everywhere, and he’s lying constantly about things.
The United States murdered defenseless Iranians at Sea and left them to drown, which is a war crime. We seem to be doing a lot of war crimes nowadays. Maybe Pete hegseth needs to stand trial of The Hague
Lucifer has a point
Remember Sandy Hook? Thats what just happened to them, the people of Iran. Their little girls, gone. 7 yr olds!!
What’s Wrong with Pete Hegseth?
Our secretary of defense—who insists you call him secretary of war—is a deeply insecure man. We’ll be lucky to survive him..

Our troops are dying this isn’t a video game. The White House is posting so-called “hype” videos that mix real footage from the war in Iran with clips from movies and video games like Call of Duty. It’s an absolute disgrace.
The very worst of Fox Paid Agitators 😡
Today, Michelle and I are proud to announce that we will be hosting the dedication ceremony for the Obama Presidential Center on June 18th in Chicago, and welcoming the public on June 19th.
We can’t wait for you to visit. Go to obama.org to learn more.
This is not the best part of the firing, but it’s in the Top 10.
Investigators now say the U.S. likely bombed a girls’ school in Iran, killing over 160 people, mostly children. If confirmed, it would rank among the worst civilian massacres of America’s Middle East wars.
God Damn the Republicans for destroying America.
Because that is what they've done.
