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

@whipkclark.bsky.social
delivered a #CupOfJoe w/ a latte truth about the SAVE Act.
It would put more red tape between women & the ballot box.⁠
⁠Why?⁠ They’re scared of women voters. Their goal is to take women’s rights backwards.
Fuck that. We will #KeepMovingForward!

Slotkin: "If Russia is helping to kill US forces, we have crossed a rubicon. We have to take decisive action on that. Instead, we're giving them breaks on oil. They're making a ton of money."

This might be the greatest split-screen ever broadcast.

They’ll play this in museums in future.

As a country we have made a lot of mistakes in foreign wars over the last 2+ centuries. But I’m not sure we have ever looked as feckless, foolish, incompetent and ridiculous at the leadership level than right now.

Ted Lieu: β€œA foreign hacker likely has the Epstein Files β€” the best way to prevent blackmail of government officials, such as Trump & Howard Lutnick, would be for AG Pam Bondi to stop the cover up & release all the Epstein Files as required by law”

When Iranian news is more honest than American news, if a bit repetitive.

Ossoff: "The president appears increasingly to have lost touch with reality. That is deeply concerning when you have a a cabinet much more concerned with winning his favor than giving good advice & the nation now plunged into war. It speaks to the necessity of winning these midterms in a landslide."

You can have the best armed forces in the history of the world, but if you are an incompetent criminal without a plan, you can still lose a war, and rather quickly.

The money that could have given Americans universal healthcare here at home is being spent instead to murder schoolgirls overseas.

Imagine a world where Americans were smarter and didn’t applaud when reactionary idiot Ronald Reagan made a show out of removing the solar panels Jimmy Carter had installed on the White House. We wouldn’t now have to worry about affording to fill gas tanks next month.

He Ordered the Strike. He Lied About the Strike. Now His Own Military Says He Murdered 175 School Children In Cold Blood. Donald Trump Is a War Criminal. The missile fragments say β€œMade in USA.” America's Rapist president has said he doesn’t know enough about it despite his memory getting fuzzier - for the past 11 days.

Told y’all Elon’s DOGE team weren’t data analysts.

They were hackers!

A whistleblower says a DOGE engineer stole Social Security data and put it on a thumb drive, including personal information on hundreds of millions of Americans.

People need to go to prison for this shit.

A new whistleblower complaint is raising alarms over a potential data breach tied to Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency. The Social Security Administration’s inspector general has launched an investigation into allegations

In contrast to the coverup of the EPSTEIN crimes here in America, there are ongoing investigations in the UK, France, Turkey, Poland, Latvia & Lithuania that is sure to expose his central, filthy role in the largest crimes against humanity case in world history. #AccountabilityIsComing

This is the most blasΓ© admission of a war crime by a US president in history.

Trump has just disclosed, without prompting, that the US Military committed a war crime - literally just to brag & make his Republican audience laugh about unnecessarily killing 100+ Iranians instead of capturing them.

So after Taco Trump bails out of his Iran War, is he going to count it as one of the wars he supposedly ended?

Trump says "the war is very complete," and he's considering taking over Strait of Hormuz President Trump told CBS News the U.S. war with Iran is "very complete," and said the U.S. "could do a lot" about the Strait of Hormuz.

President Trump on Iran: "The war is very complete, pretty much."

After supporting the Kurd ground offensive, then not.

Supporting Iranian people's desire for regime change, then not.

Going after nuclear assets, now not?
