Brendan Carr, FCC chair, threatens broadcaster licenses. This is a violation of the First Amendment.

First Amendment violation, Brendan.

I wonder if a class-action lawsuit (with 320 million of us being the injured class) might change your mind.

Do this and ALL of us will see you in court.

People don’t want to come here who should blame them

U.S. Hotel Industry Starting To Worry About The World Cup U.S. hoteliers were promised a World Cup boost, but lagging bookings less than three months ahead of the tournament are giving the industry the yips.

Nothing says “everything is under control” like someone constantly yelling at everyone not to panic

The alarms have been ringing for years

You are not alarmed enough.
It is later than you think. 🇺🇸

ICE hasn't slowed down. We must continue to speak up and defend our undocumented brothers and sisters.

We are a nation of 349M, yet one man decided to launch our nation into a reckless, illegal war without congressional authorization or counsel or the support of the American people. He didn’t think he had any duty to sell it or serve the people’s interests. This is why despotic rule is so dangerous.

Incredible that just 24 hours after this tweet, it's being reported that America is preparing to put boots on the ground in Iran.

“I broke it now you fix it.”

Opinion | Social Media Isn’t Just Speech. It’s Also a Defective, Hazardous Product. Don’t let the First Amendment arguments fool you.

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com

“For two decades now, social media companies have been virtually untouchable, profitably floating above accusations that they normalize propaganda, addict children and degrade our character,” Tim Wu writes. “That protection is finally starting to weaken.”

This administration is the ruination of our country

If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.

The U.S. is being terrorized by ICE, not Iran.

The war is going so well that the secretary of defense is spending his morning yelling at cnn

Who wore it better?

#PedoPals

Still no censure of Tommy Tuberville, Randy Fine, or Andy Ogles, who are openly promoting hate against Muslims while the US is bombing Iran, killing the Ayatollah, and people like Lindsey Graham are calling it a "religious war" DURING RAMADAN.

How do you think this all ends, folks?

Too many people, including some news media, let the truth be trampled upon without thought for what is happening to us and our nation.

The genius businessman strikes again

Murphy: I have great sympathy for our soldiers and our military leaders they are being given directions by a senile old man who is losing his mind. And so it's no surprise that this war is going horribly

Tell Your Senators: Oppose Markwayne Mullin for DHS Secretary Contact Congress today!

Everyone should do this!

Your daily reminder that not a single epstein client has been arrested.

Never stop talking about the Epstein Files.

Never stop talking about the Epstein Files.

Never stop talking about the Epstein Files.

I don’t think unconditional surrender is imminent.

They either didn't know Iran would shut down the Strait of Hormuz or they knew and didn't have a plan.

Either way - just totally clear they don't give a damn about what this war means for hardworking Americans.

There are few things more dangerous than a political movement convinced that God needs help finishing His work. But that is exactly the territory we are entering now. Going Deeper:

Note:
Our counterterrorism apparatus has been totally hollowed out.

Now we're at war with a country that has a history of terrorist attacks across much of the world.

We're going to have a terrorist attack.
THIS TIME, we cannot allow a PATRIOT act 2.0.
