I’m really disgusted by half of the country

First thing I check in the morning when I log in....

White House: the witness’s allegations are “completely baseless” and “backed by zero credible evidence.”

Fact: FBI found her credible enough to interview repeatedly, and she received a financial settlement from the Epstein estate.

Oh.

“We have agreed” — how nice of them! Surely they’re doing this work pro bono right?

“.. It looks like a textbook case of cronyism.” 🤡

Israel is bombarding, literally bombarding, two Middle East capitals, Beirut and Tehran, killing 100s of civilians, and yet the US and UK media continue to portray Iran as the threat to the region.

Israel has nukes, but Iran is the nuclear threat.

We live in Orwellian times.

I am frankly more concerned about the apathy of the American public and even more importantly the lack of leadership in the Democratic Party.

This is not a dress rehearsal. Every single American must speak out against this Facist administration.

After a year of berating and humiliating Ukraine, we could really use their help with drone warfare.

Irony of ironies. 🇺🇦

MASSIE: “Iran is not Venezuela. The Ayatollah was not a president. He was a religious leader… 🇺🇸 & 🇮🇱 turned him into a martyr, expended billions, 6 🇺🇸 families must now lay to rest their sons & daughters. And for what? This administration can't even give us a straight answer.”

Look, it's just purely a coincidence that Donald Trump started a war just days before the release of FBI 302s of interviews of a victims claiming he raped her when she was 13 years old.

Today's abysmal jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy.

What's required is investment in working people — and better wages.

When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs.

Remember this.

Kristi Noem has used $200M+ in taxpayer funds to pay firms with close ties to her top aides to make anti-immigrant PSAs.

Her luxury jets will cost taxpayers nearly $300M.

Trump's lackeys rail against "government waste," but are happy to pilfer taxpayer funds for themselves.

Calling in the Clinton’s in for a closed-door testimony while ignoring other widely implicated individuals is no mistake. This is an active, and massive, cover-up.

It’s a very good explanation that said I wish Hakeem would bring a better written version of the bill to the floor again.

Now it’s because Iran tried to assassinate Trump last year.

And now here we are.. Trump starts a war without congressional approval or approval from the majority of Americans, but now we have to pay the full bill for whatever he decides he wants to do because it would be unpatriotic not to let Trump do whatever he wants with our money.

This!

“.. Perhaps the Pentagon chief’s reluctance to speak to the press is just as well, because many Americans would be alarmed to realize that their sons and daughters in combat are being overseen by a person as callous as Pete Hegseth.”

They cut Meals on Wheels for seniors, doctors for the VA, and food for American children - but send billions of taxpayer dollars to the Middle East for an unnecessary war of choice.

Breaking:

WASHINGTON (AP) — Roy Cooper wins Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate in North Carolina primary election.

JFC.....these amoral asshats.

Jared Polis, Gov of Colorado, just pardoned Tina Peters (a 2020 election conspiracist who broke the law) at the demand of Trump

I’m shocked and sickened

Good. I feel better now.

The GOP MAGA CULT will not break from Trump’s messaging

No Democrat should vote for a single penny of a military appropriation for the Iran War until they first get to vote on a Declaration of War.

No matter how long I live after we get through this dark chapter, I will never get over the immorality, the amorality, the corruption, the criminality and the cruelty in service to one of the worst humans to ever walk the earth.

Split screen of Cory Booker and Kristi NOem.

WOWO. When Cory Booker asks Noem abt a warehouse she paid 2X what it was worth. She tries to filibuster.

He describes that DHS refused to set up a meeting with a GOP town board that doesn't want that warehouse.

🔥 @grahamformaine.bsky.social : “Watching people who have no idea what any of this looks like or feels like disgusts me… saying we just need to be prepared for more casualties because ‘that’s what happens’ — it’s not what fucking happens to THEM, it’s what happens to US.”

Nailed it
