Trump never misses a chance to make a quick buck off the backs of the American people, even if it means turning a dignified transfer of fallen service members into a fundraising opportunity.
Deeply shameful.

"Trump's a bullshitter. It's the one thing that he's like really good at ... But again, if you're fighting a war, the details matter."

I met with Chairman Nino Maltos of the Sauk-Suiattle Tribe and Darrington Forest Service Ranger Camden Bruner to get an update on damage to forest service roads following last December’s severe floods. Thank you for your leadership as our communities recover and rebuild.
You mean the nuclear program the Trump Administration claimed they had completely obliterated last June?
We need to:
✅ overturn Citizens United
✅ ban Congressional stock trading
✅ get dark money out of politics
To get corporate influence out of our politics and return it to the people.
The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled.
A truly extraordinary moment.
We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT.
Act like it.
Explain it to me like I’m five… 🤬
I’m telling y’all we could use more of that energy on this side of the pond. Decorum doesn’t work with Republicans who are steamrolling norms and daring Dems to fight back.
📌 Australian Greens Senator Nick McKim accuses his own government of “complicity” in what he calls an “illegal US-led war.”
Boo you lying shitweasel. Ppl read the bill. It only re-authorized it til April 20, 2026, imposing stricter FBI query standards, increased reporting & mandatory FISA Court oversight. It aimed to curb abuses of intelligence gathering on non-US persons that incidentally include American communications
TRUMP: “If they rise, they rise.”
While U.S. service members die in another forever war in the Middle East, Donald Trump’s “peace envoy” is raising money for his private equity firm.
Powerful people around Jeffrey Epstein helped move money, survivors, and the justice system. Lawyers, accountants, and business associates—all enabling Epstein’s crimes.
That’s why the depositions of Richard Kahn and Darren Indyke are so important—because justice demands accountability.
Once again—New Mexico is leading the way by protecting free and fair elections! NM becomes the first state in the nation to ban armed federal agents at the ballot box. This is how you do it! 🗳️🇺🇸💪
10/ All of this was totally foreseeable. Frankly, it’s why previous presidents weren’t so stupid to start a war like this.
Trump has lost control of the war. His best course now is to cut his losses and end it. That’s the only way to prevent an even bigger disaster.
9/ CRISIS FOUR: Trump has no endgame. Iran and its proxies can create chaos indefinitely.
So what’s next? A ground invasion?This would be Armageddon. Thousands of dead Americans.
Declare false victory? Then the new Iranian hardliners in charge just rebuild what we destroyed.
8/ Other potential flash points lurk. So far, the Houthis in Yemen have been relatively quiet. Probably not for long. They can project power into the Red Sea.
For Syria, this is the worst time for Trump to strike Iran. Syria could explode again.
7/ CRISIS THREE: A broader, regional war is breaking out as Iranian proxies in Lebanon hit Israel and those in Iraq target the U.S.. Israel is now threatening a massive ground invasion of Lebanon, which could become its own new crisis.
6/ If Trump paid any attention to the Ukraine War he would have noticed how warfare has changed. But he didn’t. And he blundered.
Worse, the Gulf states are running out of interceptors to stop Iranian missiles and drones - meaning that soon more oil sites will be vulnerable.
5/ CRISIS TWO: We can destroy Iran’s missiles but not all their drones, and war today is drone war.
Iran can hit oil sites in the region indefinitely because they posses so many cheap, weaponized drones.
And they are. They blew up a critical Oman oil depot two days ago.
4/ What about naval escorts for tankers? This is a possibility, but it’s harder than you think.
First, it would require our entire navy. 100 tankers need escorting each day.
Second, if we can’t destroy the mines and drones, our ships are at risk too.
3/ Right now, Trump has no plan to reopen the Strait. And a plan may not exist.
The assets Iran uses to harass and attack tankers - thousands of small drones, speed boats and mines - cannot be eliminated. They are too numerous, too spread out and hidden.
2/ CRISIS ONE: Trump believed Iran would not close the Strait of Hormuz. He was wrong. And now oil prices are spiking.
If the Strait stays closed, a global recession will result. It actually may already be too late. Gas prices are the first to spike, but food prices are next.
It’s crystal clear now that Trump has lost control of this war. He badly misjudged Iran’s ability to retaliate. The region is on fire.
1/ I’m going to explain to you in this🧵what I’ve learned - in part from closed door briefings - about the four biggest current crises.
I have questions…
Why is the U.S. Treasury secretary doing media rounds about Trump’s war in the first place, then suddenly getting summoned into the Situation Room?
Clearly, Scott Bessent comes back looking shook.
If the war strategy is so solid, why yank him out of a live interview?
They’re right about one thing. These gas prices are painful.
What they’re bullshitting about is the “short-term pain” spin they keep repeating on every cable hit because it’s scripted. Same talking points, same smug delivery, all unburdened by the truth.
Just read the quote and see how ridiculous it sounds.
Trump on the sleeper cell threat: “We know where most of them are. We’ve got our eye on all of them… I think.”
- A guard on duty when Jeffrey Epstein died, Tova Noel, will be called to testify in the Oversight Committee. - Epstein’s own accountant, Richard Kahn, gave contradictory testimony this week about whether or not an accuser of both Epstein and Trump (Jane Doe 4) received a settlement from the Epstein Estate for abuse. He now says he cannot confirm or deny. It’s time for answers! It’s time to depose Trump in this case.
TWO BREAKING DEVELOPMENTS IN THE EPSTEIN CASE:
Well, yes.
Trump said I was dumb and questioned my leadership today. I've spent 25 years in the military, commanded the space shuttle, and now I'm serving Arizona in the U.S. Senate. Happy to discuss leadership anytime, Mr. President. You know where to find me.
