Raskin: Based on what you know today, were Renee Good and Alex Pretti domestic terrorists?

Noem: What happened was an absolute tragedy.

Raskin: Were they domestic terrorists?

Noem: My condolences to their families

Raskin: You lied about them.

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.

Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

Ossoff: "The president owes Americans a real explanation. 2am posts on Truth Social just aren't good enough when you're sending Americans into combat. He was dancing at his beach club the same night he ordered air crews to launch into combat & hours before our service members endured missile salvos"

Every news show could free up a hell of a lot of airtime by canceling the talking heads who speculate about Trump’s β€œstrategy” on Iran and having the host say: β€œDonald Trump has no strategy for the war he started. In other news…”

At least the State Department had a great plan in place to evacuate all the Americans from the Middle East who are trying to leave.

Much like Putin in Ukraine. This is what happens when you fill your administration and forces full of yes-men too scared to displease the king.

Today was an important day for the opposition movement. The law firms that stood up against Donald Trump threats won.

Those that capitulated and collaborated with Trump will need to explain to their families, clients and future generations why when democracy was at stake they were such cowards.

IMHO, those that capitulated should close their doors! Hopefully the American People will know what to do!

Hmmm, I guess when it comes to powerful wealthy men he said she said or hearsay turns into her-say and is discounted accordingly as such!

Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro SΓ‘nchez on Iran:

β€œRemember that one can be against a hateful regime, as is the case with the Iranian regime, as is the whole of Spanish society, and at the same time be against an unjustified, dangerous military intervention outside of international law.”

Trump voters-
I hope you know that if your child is (god forbid) killed in this inane & insane war with Iran, or a family member becomes collateral damage in 1 of the other 8 nations being bombed, that Trump will not call them heroes, but rather suckers & losers for dying.

Hence the reason to structurally "tweak" the constitution to eliminate such issues!

Wow and I always thought the most damning citation of Larry Summers was the epigraph from *Slow Violence and the Environmentalism of the Poor* (2011)

Right now, Dems should be calling out Felon-President Trump for blowing up the original nuclear deal in his 1st term only to start a war now after he said their nuclear program was destroyed last summer!

In Iran, air power alone will not reshape the regime. Since WWI, dozens of U.S., Israeli & allied air campaigns have tried to force political change β€” none installed friendly governments. None! They strengthen nationalism and intensify resistance.

Every day Vought withholds $ from these agencies is a day where a grad student doesn’t get funding, a day where a postdoc has to look for work elsewhere, a day where early career scientists lose gap funding with a fundable grant sitting on this clowns desk. We’re losing a generation of scientists.

Hillary Clinton was forced to testify about the Jeffrey Epstein case?
I’ve seen pictures of Melania with Jeffrey Epstein together and she has yet to testify. Doesn’t MAGA wonder why?
