Freaking ridiculous

What the hell is Victory+?!

The Strait of Hormuz is open for transit

It's an incredibly stupid idea, one that manages to misread the moment badly but also sets up the midterm election to be fought on one issue where Republicans still have an edge.

I love the "could this be a solution" post because it's a perfect example of Founder brain. You have to be a special kind of stupid to imagine that you are the first person to come up with the idea of driving around the Strait of Hormuz. It's being so dumb that you think everyone else is even dumber

“wanting to be a shitty person and hanging out with other shitty people and then being surprised pikachu when they are shitty to you” really is the perfect summary of the modern right

Many many dig dig is absolutely sending me

Sustained good faith diplomacy leading to enforceable multilateral agreements and shared prosperity for all.

They are targeting her specifically and I won't have it!

I know they can’t be shamed & don’t believe anything they say, but I still boil over with rage every time I hear some R ghoul say “we have to make sacrifices” for the common good when it’s related to bombing brown people but not when staying home for 1 month or wearing a mask to save grandma’s life.

i genuinely cannot process how debased our ruling class is. these guys will walk around all day in shoes that don't fit rather than tell their boss he's wrong. this whole thing where they pretend a stupid evil guy with brain damage is qualified to run every aspect of everyone's life is unacceptable

When Americans were asked to temporarily sacrifice going to their barbers so we could keep the morgues from overflowing, people with guns stormed the Michigan capitol.

I understand the political theory behind this - “look, we’re on your side re: affordable gas” - I just think it’s a stupid fucking theory

let them touch the stove, press their hand on it good and hard

Sun Tzu (D-NY) - “When your enemy is making a mistake, fix it for him at great cost to yourself.”

Just once I'd love for one of these MAGA dupes to admit the fault with getting duped by the lowest-rent con man of the century lies with them.

We can ask Israel to stop bombing important things like oil refineries, but apparently we can’t be bothered about hospitals or schools.

It is now the official position of the NBA that strippers are more degenerate than gambling, which is obviously incorrect

love how we killed the old, frail anti-nuke ayatollah just to have him replaced with his young, healthy son who wants nukes and who just had his father, mother, wife, and child murdered on the same day by his mortal enemy. surely this will bring peace to the region

Attacks leave dead vs killed

If an official commits an impeachable offense and nobody acts to impeach, it is no longer an impeachable offense.

People who oppose impeachment as “pointless” because it seems unlikely to result in removal do not understand this very simple point and seem unwilling to even try to understand it.

can't help but notice whose losses are expressed in dollars and whose losses are expressed in lives

A handful of Republicans in Congress & Supreme Court can end this nightmare any time they choose, and history will remember them as saviors of the republic, no matter what terrible things they did to US in last 10 years: insane we cannot find a few volunteers for this plum deal!

The naming of Ayatollah Khamemei today ensures that the majority of GOP senators will continue to think the exact same guy has been running Iran since 1979

One of the lessons of the Iran war is that it was a huge mistake not to even try to put any of the Iraq war architects in prison. We shouldn’t make it again.

The constituency of Americans who see DEI as detrimental to the country is vanishingly small, the sort of constituency that can easily be ignored if politicians want to ignore it.

The Trump Administration can’t even impose its will on Minneapolis when the full force of the federal government was focused on it, but surely they will be able to pacify and remake Iran, a nation of 90 million people halfway around the world.

Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs
