I love the idea that *this* US government, which has been nabbing landscapers and five year olds knows where Iranian sleeper cells are but just hasn’t gotten around to doing anything about it yet.
We needed to start a war to avoid a war.
Murphy: "Literally in my other ear I'm listening to Ted Cruz on another network explain why this mission is so essential to destroy the nuclear program. I may have to walk over there and tell him the admin is now briefing that getting rid of the nuclear program has nothing to do with this mission."
Never stop talking about the Epstein Files.

BIG political win for former U.S. Capitol Police Officer Harry Dunn
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi endorses Dunn in competitive Democratic primary for U.S. House seat in Maryland .. Pelosi’s home state.
Per campaign
DOGE said it was cutting government waste.
So they gutted USAID — the agency that feeds starving people around the world.
Meanwhile the Pentagon spent millions on lobster, ribeye, and even a $98,000 piano.

The fragile insecure flower is crying again.
Kim: The vast majority of what I hear in these classified briefings can be said publicly, but they intentionally do this to as a tactic to be able to prevent the American people from hearing and questioning what it is that they're doing.
They know that the American people do not want a war
No, you sycophantic chode. He’s not stopping the threat, he’s encouraging an attack.
Has anyone pointed out to ICE agents that if they're arresting people solely to collect a bonus, they're not law enforcement officers. They're bounty hunters.
I look forward to all of them losing their jobs and being blacklisted from serving in law enforcement.
This administration is committing Watergate level crimes multiple times per week—and those are the ones we know about. It’s crazy to think about what else will come out after.
It’s absolutely essential these criminals are held responsible for their crimes. We must end elite impunity.
This is the guy who likes to downplay non-fatal injuries suffered by US service members in combat.
This is Reedy. He’s so happy to share his favorite part of the day with you. 13/10 (TT: runreedyrun)
I heard the audio. He said it.
Lord. What have y'all done.
Public pressure works ❗️
After people across the country spoke out, three brothers have been released from ICE detention. Change happens when people refuse to stay silent.
But the fight isn’t over. Thousands are still wrongfully detained. We’ll keep going until everyone is free.
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.
Jeffries: "We're in the middle of an affordability crisis. I know Donald Trump denies it exists. In fact, he thinks the most important thing Republicans should focus on right now is voter suppression legislation. That's extraordinary."
Here are my top 10 dog mayors!
Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."
"For the next phase of my career, I look forward to some independence and finding new spaces to share my work in line with my personal goals."
Another CBS News journalist leaving and talking about independence. Bit of a not-so-subtle hint at what's happening over there.
Earlier this year leaked video showed the inhumane conditions at the Baltimore ICE Holding Facility.
Today we conducted an unannounced oversight visit.
Here's some of what we learned:
Masuma Khan has lived in Altadena for nearly 30 years.
Last year, despite having no criminal history, she was detained by ICE and denied the medication she needed to breathe. Her family contacted my office, and we successfully advocated for her release.
NBC’s Richard Engel: “The White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”
a tan long-haired dachshund with incredibly floofy ears sits with his front paws on a window sill and his nose pressed up against the window. he's accompanied by his stuffed squirrel friend. their reflections stares back at them. Stevie the dachshund does not see the irony in watching for squirrels with his squirrel friend. he's too busy being locked in on the happenings outside his window.
This is Stevie. He's on squirrel watch. His stuffed friend is also a squirrel, but he's one of the good ones. 14/10 (IG: longdogstevie)
Trump says he won’t sign any other bills until the SAVE Act is passed, which requires voters to show proof of citizenship with expensive documents like passports.
Reminder: noncitizen voting is already illegal and incredibly rare. This is about voter suppression, plain and simple.
The SAVE Act is a major attack on voting rights. It is not a genuine voter ID reform, but rather an attempt to suppress turnout in future elections.
Wow -- as first spotted by @BadFoxGraphics on X, Fox & Friends this morning used *old footage of a previous dignified transfer* to mislead their audience about the fact that Trump wore a baseball cap during the one yesterday
What a shameful exercise in performative religiosity and piety 😳
AOC: The Pentagon has not passed an audit, and they are out here trying to kick people with disabilities off of Medicaid. It is corruption that is stealing from the public coffers — and that is the actual waste, fraud, and abuse.
