NEW: The Pentagon spent $93B on bullshit but we had to kick kids off SNAP. Nazi Jeremy Carl has withdrawn from his nomination to the State Department because republicans won't even vote for him. And dems are 28 - 0 in elections. Award-winning news with swearing: the-daily-beans.simplecast.com
UBC hosted Rachel Maddow to discuss extremism and American global collapse. She brought two decades of research on a man picking trade wars with allies, threatening Greenland, and feuding with Canada’s Prime Minister. The Chan Centre was full. The irony was fuller.
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.
Trump Went to War With Iran Because Jared Kushner Is a Fool newrepublic.com/post/207554/... via @newrepublic.com
Oil is not up because of just the war. It’s because Trump has been bat shit crazy in how he has been talking and has made no effort to lay the case out logically.
John Oliver: They claimed Iran was going to attack us, Israel was going to attack Iran, which would have led to them attacking us. Iran was going to assassinate Trump, Iran was going to have nuclear weapons, and we just did this to free the Iranian people out of the kindness of our hearts.
Trump can’t fire Pam Bondi without his entire Epstein coverup finally imploding. But that doesn’t mean we can’t hold her accountable.
When Democrats take back the House this November, I will certainly investigate her.
Oh eat shit bessent
Is Maurene Comey available to be Special Counsel?
Iran's State Agency FarsNews reported that Iranian drones struck USS Abraham Lincoln in the Gulf of Oman, with the IRGC claiming the carrier withdrew more than 1,000 km from the area following the attack. #Iran
"If credible journalists are denied access or sidelined, information does not disappear; it is replaced by rumor, propaganda, misinformation, and adversarial narratives." Don't look now... ICYMI @markhertling.bsky.social: lnk.thebulwark.com/40e1M5c
Did the orange hemorrhoid in the White House order the 'code red' on Gonzalez?
Donald Trump has more of a plan for renovating the East Wing Ballroom than he does for starting another war in the Middle East.
The contrast between these two administrations is really something, and is not flattering for the Americans. At all.
Any testimony from her will be contemptuous, evasive and untrustworthy.
But above all else, she is a devoted bootlicker willing to bend the law for Donald Trump.
"A 36-year-old Bible-quoting former public school teacher against a philandering, corrupt 63-year-old career politician is about as ideal a contrast as Democrats could have wished for." trib.al/2Rg9IBW
Calling in the Clinton’s in for a closed-door testimony while ignoring other widely implicated individuals is no mistake. This is an active, and massive, cover-up.
When you start saying some people are entitled to human rights and others aren’t, you’re on a fast track to becoming the kind of monster you fear.
As I told @theguardian.com, Trump‘s destruction of DOJ independence will require a complete overhaul to restore the rule of law to the American people.

We need to admit it; the house and senate are dysfunctional.
If they truly support the war and wanted to do their constitutional duty, all they would have to do is vote affirmatively to give the President authority to conduct the strikes. But they are too cowardly to do this.
Q: "If those objectives were achieved and the Islamic Republic still existed, would that be an acceptable outcome?"
Leavitt: "That's a hypothetical question that I'm not going to engage in."
Q: "The timeline for making the Strait of Hormuz safe for oil tankers…What is that timeline?"
Leavitt: "I don't want to commit to a timeline, but certainly it's something that is being calculated actively."
Even Matt Walsh isn’t buying it
I take comfort in DOJ’s failure to fabricate crimes, but the effort alone is a disgusting abuse of power.

As stupid as the subpoenas to the Clintons (especially Hillary) were, it laid the groundwork for this.
