Trump's Swing Voters Don't Want Another Middle East War.

Sarah and I take a look at what her focus groups are saying on Iran--and on the Epstein Files. And what accounts for the surge in conspiracy theorizing--especially but not only on the right?

Chris Murphy: β€œThis is the most incompetent, incoherent war America has fought in the last 100 years β€” this administration has no idea what they are doing

I have great sympathy for our soldiers & our military leaders β€” they are being given directions by a senile old man who is losing his mind”

Any women who has supported Trump probably has to be delusional.

Protecting public lands is about far more than money.

I love early voting in my area. It avoids the utter bullshit of them sending us all over town to separate locations to vote.
But you know what? Instead of a voting DAY, we should be having a voting WEEK so lines aren't forcing this situation in the first place.

Trump to America: Thank Me for Your Gas Bill Higher prices = more money, according to the president.

"Trump has called the Iran war a β€œlittle excursion.” It’s wildly inappropriate to use that term when people are getting killed in this conflict...In fact, it’s grotesque...To make this obvious point isn’t to be woke or even antiwar. It’s to be civilized."

Did Trump cuts slow access to public records? We found 26 cases that say yes. Lawyers’ pleas for extensions reveal post-DOGE staffing woes at federal agencies’ Freedom of Information Act offices.

Federal staffing cuts under President Trump have severely impacted the ability of agencies to fulfill Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests that provide access to public records for journalists, academics, researchers and everyday people.

Since 1994, immigrants have paid more in taxes than they receive in benefits every year.

Do not believe the lies you hear about immigrants.

They are good for society and the economy.

It doesn’t look like total surrender is going to happen. More like $5 gas and bigly inflation on everything else, too.

The loveliest thing happened as I was queuing in a local shop:
Woman: Are you a piano teacher?
Me: No!
Her: I just know yr face
Me: Could it be from the bookshop where I used to work?
Her: OMG yes! You’re Danny and you got my reluctant reader son into books. He’s a bookworm now!

A tweet from the Governor Newsom Press Office account reads: β€œBREAKING: @SpeakerJohnson agrees, Americans going hungry does not qualify as an emergency. Disgusting.”
Below it is a screenshot of a Politico article titled β€œJohnson backs Trump’s plans not to tap contingency dollars for food aid ahead of funding cliff.” The image shows Speaker Mike Johnson wearing glasses and a suit.

If this doesn’t qualify as an emergency, what does? Even the USDA plan said it could be used as a buffer in the event of a shutdown.

Two in five arrested for last summer’s UK riots had been reported for domestic abuse Police data indicates overlaps between public violent disorder and domestic violence and abuse

About 40% of those arrested in the Farage riots had previously been reported for domestic abuse.

If the far-right want to protect British women and children, they should start by looking at their own ranks.

Oh look, ICE is copying literal Nazi recruiting propaganda again. The poster on the right is for the Volkssturm, the Nazi militia of older men and boys established during the final months of World War II.

Attorneys for Jeffrey Epstein survivors say history is repeating itself with Trump's DOJ "sidelining them from critical decisions."

It suggests that "victims are, at best, an afterthought to the current administration."
