The worst cabinet in American history And it's not even close.

“He has no national security experience, no law enforcement experience, and no experience in immigration or any of the other issues the department deals with.

On the other hand, he did run his family’s plumbing business.”

Another edition to the collection!

We have, by far, the biggest, most expensive military in the world not to mention enough nukes to eradicate the entire world population dozens of times over, but we're supposed to believe we're also so feeble we were at risk of attack by a military a fraction of our size. Complete and utter bullshit

Rand Paul: "I think we've gotten overextended. This is our second war in a month, and these wars are very very expensive not only in the lives that are lost, but also in treasure. I'm very very concerned about the debt. Half a trillion dollars for the military budget is fiscally irresponsible."

It's so bad that we've reached a point where members of Congress casually discuss stripping citizenship from and deporting people because they don't like their views.

you see we didnt hit iran. iran slipped and fell in the kitchen and thats why iran has a black eye. if iran would just stop being clumsy we wouldnt have to get so mad at them. if iran would just use its brain we wouldnt have to yell at iran...

Waging war on a whim is now doing "everything they can to avoid armed conflict."

Real war is peace stuff.

Sen. Chris Coons: "I'm gravely concerned that the administration is preparing for a very risky special operation to try to send American and Israeli troops into some of Iran's heavily fortified and protected nuclear enrichment sites."

Coons: "Right now, the clearest winner from this war in Iran is Russia. It's stunning that President Trump is on the phone with Vladimir Putin and spending more time consulting with him than he is with Congress and the American people."

"[Each is] not just a weak choice but literally the worst possible choice, the person guaranteed to do maximal harm to the interests of the country & the purposes for which their department exists. In short, we have never seen quite the collection of clowns, cranks, & crooks that Trump has assembled

BLITZER: Did it reassure you at all that President Trump seemed to soften his previous assertion that Iran was actually behind that deadly strike?

WARNER: Yeah, I was glad to hear it

(This is not a thing that happened! Trump blamed Iran for the strike during his latest press conference yesterday!)

Schumer: "Iran doesn't have Tomahawk missiles, Donald Trump! The claim is beyond asinine. He says whatever pops into his head no matter what the truth is. And we all know he lies, but on something as formidable as this, it's appalling."

Warren: "It is still the case that the Trump admin cannot explain the reasons we entered this war, the goals we're trying to accomplish. The only part that seems clear is that while there is no money for 15m Americans who lost their healthcare, there's a billion a day to spent on bombing Iran."

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."

MERKLEY: So when the VP said 'ICE agents have absolute immunity' in violating people's civil rights, he was effectively correct?

BIER: Effectively, yes. Right now as the law stands.

Leaders of both parties should be calling for Witkoff's immediate resignation after these remarks. He is a Russian patsy, a traitor, and this has just gone for too long. It is has to end.

A few days ago it was 11 bombs. We’ve got bomb inflation.

This reminds me of Ted Cruz on January 6 saying that “the voters” have lots of concerns about the election results and so he’s just doing his job by responding to those concerns. Hm, where did Republican voters ever get that cockamamie idea from?

RON JOHNSON: 650k people that are at large in America have committed crimes. Mr Bier, you're shaking your head

BIER: They're not at large. They're in prison. They're in prison where they should be

JOHNSON: They're not detained!

BIER: They're detained by the states. They're not detained by ICE

This flippant response is absolutely unacceptable from the Commander in Chief.

11 days into Trump's war with Iran and he still cannot give the American people a clear answer on why he started this war and how long it will last.

Russia is the one thing that can attack the US in countless ways and Trump never ever ever responds

Trump's refugee resettlement explicitly maximizes preferences for white South Africans while cutting off virtually all resettlement from places that Trump describes as "shithole countries." Ethnic reengineering is literally baked into policy!
