Ladies and Gentlemen: Presenting the warmongering, fearmongering, whoremongering Lindsey Graham escorting naval troops through the Strait of Hormuz.

Now that he has nearly destroyed the Kennedy Center, doing damage to other DC institutions along the way - the National Symphony, the Washington Opera - Ric Grenell is leaving, perhaps to ruin something else

Donald J. Trump ยฎ @realDonaldTrump The Iranian National Soccer Team is welcome to The World Cup, but I really don't believe it is appropriate that they be there, for their own life and safety. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP. Nima Tavallaey Roodsari @ NimaTavRood So FIFA, you're hosting the World Cup in a country whose president just threatened the lives & safety of the players of one of the teams that have qualified for the tournament. This Goebbelsian pantomime MUST END NOW!!!!
Nasser Al-Khori - ูุงุตุฑ ุงูุฎูุฑู @al.- 14h X Funny how journalists and FIFA suddenly go quiet on "human rights" when the host is the United States. After the illegal US-Israel war on Iran, a boycott sounds completely justified. Qatar faced a decade of scrutiny and accusations โ yet we didn't start a war 100 days before hosting the World Cup. In fact, we delivered the best World Cup in history. If @FIFA.com had any consistency, they would consider stripping the US of hosting rights โ just like they did to Russia after Ukraine. So why the double standard?
That FIFA World Cup isnโt going all too well
'They forgot or ignored what little they had ever known of the Guardians, and of the labours of those that made possible the long peace of the Shire.
They were, in fact, sheltered, but they had ceased to remember it.'

The text at the beginning of Great Expectations by Charles Dickens
I had no expectations for Dickenโs Great Expectations, but after less than 100 pages in I gotta admit that Iโm hooked. I wouldโve never picked this up if it wasnโt on my list of โclassics everyone should readโ.
And thatโs exactly why Iโm doing this.
People should listen to @oliviaoftroye.com's sobering predictions of where this disastrous Iran War will lead and the horrific consequences that are being unleashed as a result of Trump's utter incompetence.

"I got my PhD by writing prompts instead of doing research, I'm winning"
got some bad news, there still no jobs and now you also know nothing
McGowan: You're saying 46 Americans died, so we should attack this country. Here at home, 68,000 Americans die a year because they don't have health insurance. So, if we're going to spend billions of dollars on somethingโฆ
It is amazing youd give up a first term job in the SENATE for a brief stint atop a game show hostโs secret police police
He seems pretty sensitive whenever someone confronts him with evidence that Putin might not be our friend. Even when Fox brings it up.
Obama has the crowd at Jesse Jackson's eulogy hanging on his every word
Kamala Harris: "I predicted a lot about what's happening right now. I'm not here to say 'I told you so,' but we did see it coming."
Himes: I have a theory on how this endsโฆ
Youโre going to see oil go across $100โฆ Projections for economic growth are going to go down.
And at some point in 3-5 weeks, the president is going to say this is really not tenable. And heโs going to declare victory and walk away.
McGovern: How the hell is this America first? You guys broke your top campaign promise. Good luck with that. I hope the defense contractor money was worth it. Shame on you all. The mask is off. You're all just a bunch of pathetic Neocon Warmongers.
NOEM: I would disagree with the judge
CROCKETT: I'm sure you would, but can you tell me whether or not you have a law degree?
NOEM: A what?
CROCKETT: A law degree
NOEM: No I do no-
CROCKETT: Okay
AOC: He impulsively went in on Venezuela. He impulsively went in on Iran. It led to increased global instability and every time heโs done that, it has been consistent with a spike in what is happening with the Epstein files. I think that he feels existentially tied to it.
The video of a United States Senator joining the violent removal of U.S. marine from a hearing and hideously breaking his arm in a door is an example of what has been unleashed in this country. Theyโre tapping in to get in on the violence.
And then he bragged about it on X later.
The policy of the Trump administration: say one thing in a campaign, write it down on paper, then go do whatever the hell you want. That is wrong.
This is such a dogshit thing to say but notice how much of a coward he is to immediately go oh gosh oh golly when the reporter asks what he means by that. Canโt even have the courage of his dirtbag convictions, an insult to all men who wear shorts and hoodies in the winter. We reject him.
Imagine if Democrats had done this to a veteran....24/7 news and outrage on right-wing channels.
Moskowitz: I want to end on a happy note. I got you a new Coast Guard blankie, the one you lost.
My point was that Latinos have different perspectives and are not uniform in their politics or outlook.
And so on. Latinos are DIVERSE.
Also: donโt forget all the Slavs & Poles & Hungarians & Italians in the Red States of the Midwest, who voted further Trump. They too were massively discriminated against just two to three generations ago.
All forgotten now from their family histories.
Patrol, the Honduran woman who wirks 80 hrs weekly, gets paid in cash & prays each hour of the day her roofer husband doesnโt get picked up by ICE, & the Puerto Riqueรฑo whoโs family lives in the Bronx, & has a relative who has became a Supreme Ct Justice or Congresswan.

Mexican Americans in the RGV are completely different than Mexican Americans in suburban Dallas or Ojai or Chicagoland or Little Rock.
I am not black, but I do t think itโs controversial to say black Americans have a somewhat common experience / family history (slavery, Jim Crow, Great Migrationโฆ
Puerto Ricans (AmCits) have a completely different set of politics than Dominicans.
You need to understand that different Latinos have different backgrounds.
Cubans and Venezuelans have been scared by oppressive regimes characterized by communism & socialism. Their primary motivator is economic freedom, not their race/identity.
