This is disgusting, but also a tacit admission of just how horrible and indefensible it is.

I’m sorry, doing this in a baseball cap sold by your campaign store is deliberately disrespecting the dead.

Hegseth needs to stand trial after this as a war criminal. Between this attack and the girls' school, there's no ambiguity. He is responsible for mass murder and must be held accountable.

In every Republican presidency of my lifetime there's been a recession and a new war in the Middle East.

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

"We are now banning ICE agents from our stores and our parking lots" should be on the list, too.

I think they might have better luck spending two thousand dollars holding a press conference where they detail who made the key decisions to collaborate with the Trump administration, how and when they were fired, and explaining what would stop that from happening again.

congress needs to stop this madman

Markwayne is actually a noble title, and is the Oklahoma equivalent to "Marquis," and may be passed on at the same time your father gives you his car dealership

Let me be clear: I’m glad Kristi Noem was fired. But we still have to abolish ICE.

I’ve spent years, decades, obsessing over the Bush Administration’s Iraq WMD lies, writing about them, debunking them.

I can think of no lie about Iraq WMDs told by Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld et al that comes even close to the enormity and absurdity of this lie from Donald Trump.

This is what weak and insecure people think confidence looks like: buffoonish bluster and swagger, like a 12-year-old bully. It doesnβ€˜t inspire trust or security. It inspires grave concern for the lives of the people serving our nation whose fate is in the hands of these overcompensating oafs.

AOC: We already have multiple American service members who are dead for an illegal action that the president has pursued with no plan out. They don’t know why they got into this war. They’re talking about a hundred different reasons, and they don’t know how they’re getting out.

AOC: If people like Kristi Noem, Kash Patel, and Pam Bondi violate the law, there are supposed to be consequences. These are people who call themselves law enforcement officers. The message they’re sending is that they can cover up for pedophiles and street executions. That cannot be acceptable.

He demanded that she send him nude pictures and bullied her into a relationship. This is called sexual harassment. It was not β€œan affair”. RESIGN NOW.

losing a primary by FIFTY points because you backed ICE should tell everyone where the zeitgeist is right now

sorry we fired all the missiles. no, there won't be more missiles for a while. the missiles take a long time to make. in fairness you weren't supposed to use them all at once

Glad people are settling on the term "pervert glasses". Bonus points if you also say it while posting a picture of Mark Zuckerberg or call them Mark Zuckerberg's pervert glasses.

i'm taking a brave stance that may get me canceled: there is no reason for the pervert glasses to exist

Spanish PM SΓ‘nchez responds to Trump:

"Spain is against this disaster... Govts are here to improve people's lives... It is absolutely unacceptable that those leaders who are unable to fulfill that mission use the smoke of war to hide their failure, and in the process, fill the pockets of a few."

this is not an amount of money any individual or household should be able to have and we have to abolish both billionaires as a group and the economic system that makes them possible

When we talk about Baby Boomers not getting off the stage: In 1997, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2007, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2017, the US president was born in 1946.

And next year in 2027? The US president will have been born in 1946.

REPORTER: Yesterday you told us Israel was going to strike Iran and that's why we needed to get involved. But today the president said Iran--

RUBIO: No. Were you there yesterday?

REPORTER: Yes. I asked the question

Trump, suffering from dementia, is confused about where his father was born. It was in the Bronx, not in Germany. Trump's grandfather was an immigrant who came here after getting kicked out of Germany for evading the draft.

They literally spent the past 4-plus years blasting Biden over the withdrawal from Afghanistan and how "rushed" it was.
