The GOP is not trying to fix the economy. They're trying to fix the election.

There is a reason every other president refused Bibi’s invitation to start a regional war. Trump was the only one dumb enough to take the bait.

I would never go to war for this stupid fucking president. I feel bad for all the people that are in a situation where they need to be put in danger like that to make a living and get a career. It shouldn't be that way. They deserve better. We all deserve better. It's abhorrent.

To the "I didn't vote for this" folks. You voted for a convicted felon. A twice-impeached president. A man found liable for sexual abuse, who tried to overthrow an election. And now gas prices are surging, we're at war, and soldiers are coming home in coffins. This is what you voted for. All of it.

Might be a good time to rethink your policies if your administration has to bunker down in military housing because the people are pissed

After watching this shit show in Iran can we now agree that maybe having academics isn’t a bad thing?

Pete Hegseth, Moral Failure, and the Erosion of Military Legitimacy Congress needs to find out if any laws were broken and who is responsible.

"Ethical failure within a unit is rarely sudden. It is cumulative. It grows when leaders miss early warning signs, when exhaustion dulls judgment, when a small number of individuals lack a moral grounding." @markhertling.bsky.social from the archives: lnk.thebulwark.com/3NygRvA

A year ago, I was willing to accept that some MAGAs were good people who were merely misguided.
But now that Trump has shown us his true colors, anyone who is still MAGA is simply, purely fucking nuts.

Has any man at the very rear of his army *ever* projected such sad main character energy?

It's almost like he wants us to forget he's a draft-dodger who called our soldiers "losers" and "suckers" and plotted illegal wars of the sort he got elected promising to avoid while demanding a peace prize

Long security lines at U.S. airports as DHS funding affects TSA staffing Wait times to get through security hit two hours in New Orleans and over three hours in Houston as TSA staffing took a hit amid the partial government shutdown.

The Republican DHS shutdown is causing MASSIVE delays at airports around the country.

Republicans have to stop playing political games.

It’s time to work with House Democrats to enact commonsense reforms to ICE and reopen the government.

@fetterman.senate.gov please do NOT confirm MarkWayne Mullin as the next DHS chief. He defends ICE fatally shooting citizens, backs expelling US-born kids, objected to 2020 election results.

β€˜A shell of our former self’: How Trump and Musk’s spending cuts are hampering US government readiness amid the Iran war | CNN Politics Government cuts under Trump’s second term weakened U.S. emergency, security, and foreign response capabilities, now under scrutiny amid Middle East conflict.

CNN catalogs some of the many things that Trump defunded or fired before he needed them for his illegal war of choice on Iran:

1) Evac experts at State
2) CT at State
3) Cyber sharing at CISA
4) Disaster response at FEMA
5) CI at FBI

Both proposals comment periods are now closed, so now we wait to see what the FCC decides. But, thanks in part to all of you, we hit in the neighborhood of 1500 comments on each proposal, what PCMag called "a staggering amount." From the bottom of my heart, thank you to everyone who commented.

This is a truly monstrous take. Bibi is war criminal, one taco short of a global annihilation platter. This kind of leader is never an ally.

Judge Matthew Brann rules that "triumvirate" leadership structure of US Atty's Office in NJ is an illegal attempt to evade senate confirmation.

This is the judge who DQ'd Alina Habba, and the opinion comes out swinging.

It was a US strike that killed 165 schoolgirls. Mostly aged 7-12.

While it was likely unintentional, the decision to strike a military target in a densely populated civilian area was not.

Yes, difficult decisions have to be made in war.

I don’t trust this bloodthirsty regime to make good ones.

So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion.

That's $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

Thousands of lives lost.

People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

I understand why Putin wants to destroy America, and I can guess why Trump is helping him do it. But I'll never figure out why Congress is letting him get away with it.

So Russia is helping Iran target American troops. Ukraine is offering drone defense.

Guess who Trump NEVER ONCE has EVER criticized?

Correct. Russia

An article describing how a Norwegian immigrant married a US citizen but ICE detailed her and refused her insulin, causing blindness and almost killed her. In between, an ad from the common sense leadership fund lauds the president's "understanding of the art of the deal" and boosts his alleged pro-business agenda

In between, an ad from the common sense leadership fund lauds the president's "understanding of the art of the deal" and boosts his alleged pro-business agenda

The contrast is ghoulish. A "pro-business" president nearly killing people because cruelty is the point.
