I was first on Stephen’s old show when my book came out in 2006. And here we are again.
Talking about another deadly and unpopular American war in the Middle East.
It’s like déjà vu all over again.
"He wants to be very constructive" -- moments after announcing that he's taking sanctions off Russia without mentioning Russia by name, Trump says "I had a very good call with President Putin" today
Trump on his war on Iran: "We talked about that with President Putin. He was very impressed with what he saw."
Apparently, Lindsey Graham's drunken Fox News bullshit isn't working in the more clear-eyed Middle East.

I wrote about one of the worst Americans of the late 20th century. He's dead but his dream lives on — in Israel:

Another immeasurable loss for our country. And his unit, and his loved ones.
I will post this after every American military fatality:
If you want to help his loved ones and the loved ones of others KIA (and also those lost to accidents and suicide), support the vital work of TAPS: www.TAPS.org.
Thank you! I’ve been pointing that out everywhere I can, it’s especially an issue for married or divorced women.
Lindsey now condemns Saudi Arabia.

"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine demands that all persons guilty of kidnapping Ukrainian citizens, their ill-treatment,pressure, intimidation,&abuse, the denial of access to consular assistance and medications, depriving them of communication, and other violations of their rights,as well
The College Republicans of America just appointed a groyper as their political director. Kai Schwemmer was in Fuentes' inner circle in 2021, & since then has strategically downplayed his support to avoid controversy. CRA claims over 300 campus chapters across the country
While we're talking about Live Nation/Ticketmaster's sweetheart antirust settlement, a reminder that it paid ZERO federal income tax last year on $145M in profits— largely due to Trump's tax cuts.
Trump works on behalf of the most powerful corporations.
Not you.
I don't think you have to Nostradamus to figure that bombing Iran might raise oil prices. And it seems pretty obvious that buying oil in advance of causing an oil price spike might just save Americans a lot of money. But...
...maybe there wasn't much planning?
South Korea’s industry minister says the US signaled it will refrain from raising tariffs on Korean goods if Seoul swiftly passes draft legislation aimed at facilitating investment in the US.
“Some blame Russia for the US downfall, some blame Israel, but it was always both — along with American collaborators and assorted global operatives”
Tomorrow night.
Looking forward to chopping it up with my old friend, Stephen Colbert on @colbertlateshow.bsky.social.
Needless to say, LOTS to talk about!
(I hope the FCC doesn’t shut us down🤞)🎙️🇺🇸
Country Joe, RIP. This is where you and I both came in. One, two, three, four, what are we fighting for? Five, six, seven, open up the pearly gates, well, there ain't no time to wonder why, Whoopee! we're all going to die www.youtube.com/watch?v=3W7-...
Thanks to Trump’s tax giveaways, Ticketmaster’s parent company paid $0 in federal income taxes last year, and made over $145 million – while overcharging Americans for concerts, sports, and more.

Malignant narcissists are really nasty characters who delight in hurting others.
"The fact that there were only four countries with confirmed US ambassadors - out of the 14 countries told to evacuate American citizens after the war began - tells you all you need to know about this administration’s incompetence and lack of professionalism."

When you listen to Sarah Kendzior, the puzzle pieces align and all the confusion and chaos of Trump, and a Congress that does nothing to rein him in, suddenly make sense.
Not that you won’t be less scared, but your fear will at least be better informed 😬

"A 2022 poll found that nearly 70% of Republican voters believed aspects of the Great Replacement Theory. Now that it's become a centerpiece of Trump administration messaging and saturates right wing media, I suspect that 70% number from 2022 has only gone up."
