oh ok that will probably fix things
He'll say that it's all an illusion and everything is fine.
Somebody build a wall around FL so those mfs can’t escape
Our hearts are with the family & friends of Sgt. Benjamin Pennington, 26, lost March 8 in an Iranian attack at Prince Sultan AB. Those killed & wounded in Trump's War in Iran aren't just numbers. We remember who they were and all they gave to our nation.

Reuters: Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and Bahrain join UAE and Kuwait in cutting oil output. Over the last month, the price of crude has gone up 79.23%. Trump has no plan to ameliorate the pain for American consumers. “If it goes up, it goes up”.
Let me fix your headline.
“Prepare to be gouged in every aspect of your life by the powerful oligarchs who are going to profit obscenely from two criminals indiscriminately bombing Iran in order to escape justice”
That audience doesn't care.
Over 800 Patriot missiles used in one week in the Middle East, while Ukraine received only 600 in four years.
Sometimes numbers tell the story better than words. 🤔
My favorite part of the Republican response to the worst job market since the Great Recession:
Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer tried to subtract 92,000 from 126,000 and somehow ended up with 60,000.

Andy Ogles seems unable to comprehend the basic values the United States was founded on – like religious freedom under the First Amendment.
Muslim Americans are our neighbors, colleagues, and friends. They belong here, but this vile Islamophobia doesn’t belong in Congress.
Oil is already near a price that hurts the economy - The Wall Street Journal.
America needs twice as much oil as other countries- others have reduces dependence on gas & oil moving toward more practical & economical & greener sources of energy
For Russia, the surge in oil prices after U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran amounts to an economic windfall at a crucial moment.
It's leaving the Kremlin well placed to emerge as one of the main beneficiaries of the conflict in the Middle East.
Tweet from matt (@mattxiv): using the passive "dead" and the active "killed" in the SAME HEADLINE is absolutely diabolical Quoted tweet from Sky News (@SkyNews): Latest attacks in Lebanon leave nearly 400 dead as two Israeli soldiers killed trib.al/xORAqhP
Like at this point it’s no secret to the people writing these headlines that this kind of thing has been roundly criticized for years and years. It’s an intentional, conscientious decision on their part. They know they’re propagandists (and, for better or worse, we all are!).
Trump: Many important meetings and phone calls taking place today while I am at Trump National Doral, in Miami. Additionally, I will be going to Speaker Mike Johnson's (who is doing a fantastic job!) fundraising event, at 4 P.M., and then, prior to leaving for D.C., I will hold a News Conference from a Doral Ballroom at approximately 5:30 P.M. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP 5 ReTruths 21 Likes 3/9/26, 9:43 AM
“Many important meetings and phone calls taking place today while I am at Trump National Doral, in Miami.”
(This typically means he’s golfing)
he is a pedophile who has dementia. none of this should be even slightly surprising and it's depressing that it is
We need your drone interceptors for our war, but we won’t thank you and our propaganda will claim that we made them.
Breaking 🚨
US CITIZEN Sunny Naqvi, born & raised outside Chicago, 2 other citizens & 3 legal residents were detained at O'Hare Airport.
CBP took Sunny to Broadview Detention, then moved her to a Wisconsin facility & finally abandoned her at a gas station after 2 days of lies to her family & police.
The question I get more than any other as a trial lawyer is "how can they do that? Isn't that illegal?"
How can the cop lie under oath? How can the landlord evict me for my religion or race? How can my job fire me for being queer? Isn't that illegal?
To this day I still have people saying that the Israeli genocide in Gaza can't be happening because genocide is illegal.
But please understand something. I've said it before and I will say it again:
ILLEGAL DOES NOT MEAN IMPOSSIBLE.
When MAGA Americans finally realize that they, too, are victims of the criminality and predation they initially hoped would only be for those despised others (the immigrant, gay, brown, black, woke, and blue staters), then it will be a bridge too far.

Israel and the US appear to want to do to Tehran what they have done to Gaza: reduce a busy and complex society to a toxic wasteland.
If an official commits an impeachable offense and nobody acts to impeach, it is no longer an impeachable offense.
People who oppose impeachment as “pointless” because it seems unlikely to result in removal do not understand this very simple point and seem unwilling to even try to understand it.
A historic disruption to the world’s oil production sent crude prices smashing through the $100 barrier Monday for the first time in nearly four years.
With no end in sight to the war with Iran, oil futures could have considerably more room to run even higher.
The most commonly encountered price for diesel has jumped from $3.69/gal a week ago to... $4.99/gal today. Can't underscore what a massive jolt this is to the logistics, trucking, ag sectors.
This is very hard to believe, but true. Everyone should believe this and not pretend that all is still good.
Well, this “to do list” turned out to be too hard, so he started a war instead, we’re in so much trouble…
