It’s gonna be a pretty solid weekend if social media is flooded with clips of Laura Loomer getting her ass handed to her in-person by Indian journalists. Shout-out to Rajdeep Sardesai for kicking off the festivities.

How strange that all the targets of violent anti-zionists just happen to be Jewish folks and never Christian Zionists. How odd. What a coincidence.

Yes, and that doesn't justify attacking a synagogue.

Too bad. Because it's correct.

It's the Judaism, Not the Zionism Yesterday, an antisemitic terrorist rammed his truck through the front entrance of a synagogue in West Bloomfield Township, Michigan.

"We're not seeing Jewish people continue to be violently attacked out of a motivation against Zionism. We're seeing Jewish people violently attacked because they're Jewish."

If you're a service member being ordered to prep for deployment for the War in Iran and you have moral and/or ethical misgivings on all this, remember that you have the right to apply for conscientious objector status.

Call the G.I. Rights hotline: 1-877-447-4487

I can’t believe we’re doing this again. More ground troops with families being sent into another stupid war in the Middle East by politicians who don’t give a damn about them.

We’ve learned nothing. Absolutely nothing.

If someone attacks a synagogue because they're angry at Israel, that is antisemitism. It doesn't matter the reason they're angry. Targeting a synagogue because they need to take out their anger on Jewish people--and any Jewish place of worship will do--is antisemitism.

That's not how that works. They did not disclose their location.

A U.S. Air Force KC-135 refueling aircraft has crashed in western Iraq with a crew of six. No confirmation on their status, but it is highly unlikely they survived.

Prior to this crash, nine U.S. service members had died in the War in Iran.

A Magic 8 Ball is more reliable for getting a sense of our continued military actions in Iran than any information coming out of the Trump White House. What a deeply embarrassing moment for our country.

This is about the population of Iowa.

Imagine every resident of Iowa being displaced within the span of a few weeks.

Read this and smile.

"I don’t know who is advising Rep. De La Cruz or wrote the script for her video, but any comms person who grew up in Texas would have known immediately to take out that line. You don’t mess with quinceañeras. You just don’t."

This is the start of a comms push for validating a draft with the public or at least with his base.

We should all be talking about this.

The military draft comment from Leavitt feels like a trial balloon.

If there's enough outcry, Trump denies it and Leavitt falls on her sword for "misspeaking."

If there's not, Trump and Hegseth bring it up casually and slowly push. For example, Trump may "joke" about it as a next step.

I mean... it's nice and all that Congress is invested with the power to legislate a draft, and also: when has Trump ever cared about constitutional integrity? Let's put our thinking caps on for a second.

I feel like it should be bigger news that Trump is now openly considering a military draft. Young men haven't been called up for a draft since 1972. Not during the Gulf War. Not during Iraq or Afghanistan. He received five draft deferments but is now open to drafting your kids.

"Trump has an insatiable need to make these moments about himself and his merch... He wore a gaudy baseball cap, available for purchase in his online store, during the entire dignified transfer of these heroes, declining to remove it as has always been the bare minimum and obvious etiquette."

Thank you, friend!

This Isn't About Politics or You or Me This shouldn't be difficult.

"The disrespect shown by Trump was so embarrassing that Fox News attempted to gloss over the incident by airing footage of a previous dignified transfer during their coverage of yesterday’s dignified transfer."

None of y'all have managed to create enough daylight. I am begging y'all to get your shit together. Consolidate support. Figure something out. Someone talk to someone. This current trajectory is untenable and quite stupid.

If no Democrat advances, we're blaming all of you.

California Democratic gubernatorial candidates:

It's now been four months of nearly every poll showing the two GOP candidates at the top. Not by much but still advancing. The jungle primary is less than three months away.

What’s Driving the Partisan Divide on Iran? Responsibility vs. acquiescence

Excellent by @haliesoifer.bsky.social:

"The key questions before this White House — which remain unanswered — are whether military conflict with Iran is in America’s interest, what are the objectives, and is there a plan to turn short-term tactical gains into long-term strategic success in Iran."

Dwight: Well, as the Shield of Americas, I thin--

Michael: Special Envoy for the Shield of Americas.

Dwight: Michael, you said I'm the Shield of Ame--

Michael: DWIGHT, god, not the time.

You might say Kristi Noem was the runt of the litter.

Trump is about to fire Kristi Noem. It turns out her puppy dog eyes couldn't persuade him from pulling the trigger.
