Trump civil fraud trial LIVE: Outside the courthouse in New York - YouTube m.youtube.com/watch?v=epGi...
Remarkable: With support for the Iran war tanking, Trump is now throwing away the GOP's advantage on three core issues: Economy, immigration, national security.
A year ago it looked like he might be popular on all three. He lit it all on fire. 1/

Our troops are dying this isn’t a video game. The White House is posting so-called “hype” videos that mix real footage from the war in Iran with clips from movies and video games like Call of Duty. It’s an absolute disgrace.
Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say “Send me” wherever we have a chance to make an impact.
How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.
He seems pretty sensitive whenever someone confronts him with evidence that Putin might not be our friend. Even when Fox brings it up.
Kamala Harris: "I predicted a lot about what's happening right now. I'm not here to say 'I told you so,' but we did see it coming."
Ben Stiller is calling out the White House after it used a clip from Tropic Thunder in a video promoting the Iran war.
“We never gave you permission and have no interest in being part of your propaganda machine. War is not a movie,” Stiller wrote.
there's a thing I like to call "load-bearing assumptions", that you don't notice until they're suddenly gone (e.g the air you breath has oxygen in it).
the post-ww2 order is a load-bearing assumption for basically the entirety of american life. trump took a sledgehammer to it in the last 90 days.
If Iran is bombing Tel Aviv What’s gone stop them from Bombing the USA, Washington Or MaraLardos castle ?

Trump? Bad. Netanyahu? Lousy. The leaders of Iran? Odious. Look closely and you’ll notice there are no good guys in this looming world war. This is what makes Hegseth’s lies so hard to stomach. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Murdering fishermen wasn't enough for Hegseth. Murdering little girls will let him sleep real good now. He's a murdering sociopathic drunk.
Instead of asking for emergency funding for the military, since the US military is already funded higher than any military, why don’t we send Pete Hegseth overseas to lecture everyone about “FAFO” and “DEI”? It seems the only ones FAFO-ing are him & MAGA, the ultimate “DEI’S”

Look Mr. Prezzy-dent, I can slip in
And out of the noose
I can wave my spongee
At the tee-vee
I can do that thing
Where you bend your thumb
To the wrist bone
Here’s the point—
My heart my head
My untold everywhere
Which I’ve named
The soul
Has no idea
Who the fuck you are…
Donald Trump hates anything he doesn’t understand. Therefor he hates science, research, diversity, every manner of complexity. Sometimes you meet people like him in academia—that professor who would burn down the campus to get his or her way. But the stakes are small in that instance.
The Corporate Media Is Head Over Heels for the Iran War - The Nation
for those of you who werent adults during iraq, its hard to overstate how much the media loves war porn. they salivate over pentagon spin briefings. they love stories about all the bombs and how supposedly infallible they are. they love the notion of the commander in chief, in the situation room etc
It would be nice if we had a Secretary of Defense who knew what he was doing and not one that just regurgitates quotes from action movies
“No stupid rules of engagement” had better be a first-round entry into Bartlett’s Familiar Quotations.
Not only *did* they start this war, they have no idea how to finish it.
It was a terrible thing watching Pete Hegseth lie to the world this morning. Like everyone in Trump’s circle, including Trump himself, Hegseth is a cosplayer who thinks the entire globe watches Fox.

I wanted poetry to love me
So
I promised

Take it

“But you can’t drive”

Then: “For

Look out
