Iran may be activating sleeper cells outside the country, alert says The U.S. has intercepted encrypted communications believed to have originated in Iran that may serve as β€œan operational trigger” for β€œsleeper assets."

It's ok. Trump appointed a 22 year old former grocery clerk for counter terrorism head. abcnews.com/US/iran-acti...

Apparently, Lindsey Graham's drunken Fox News bullshit isn't working in the more clear-eyed Middle East.

Clinton had us debt-free by 2010. Bush blew it. Obama fixed it. Trump crashed it. Biden fixed it. Trump crashed it again β€” 92,000 jobs gone last month. Want a good economy? Elect Democrats.

Renee Good was also shot at point-blank range through her side window by an ICE agent who was in no danger

Alex Pretti wasn’t in a car, but he too was shot at point-blank range by an ICE agent who was in no danger

It seems every time ICE kills someone they lie to cover up shooting innocent people

Humans can only survive about 3 days without water.

The tit-for-tat attacks on desalination plants and other water infrastructure in the Middle East are the scariest part of this war.

Stephen Fry: β€œI’m deeply worried by the darkening shadow that’s going over the world, a shadow that we have to call fascism”

Laura Kuenssberg: β€œYou would use that word?”

Stephen Fry: β€œOh absolutely. It’s a cult of power; and power only speaks to power”

Is it 'objective journalism' to pretend to either not to have been alive in 2003 or unable to read a book?

The Desire for Terror And the defense of democracy

A purpose of the war on Iran might well be to provoke a terrorist attack inside the United States. This would provide Donald Trump with a pretext to try to cancel or β€œfederalize” the coming Congressional elections.

the most important state election of early 2026 is right around the corner… though you’d never know it by the attention it’s receiving.

here’s hoping this bolts article helps jumpstart a little more chat!

WELKER: Is there any scenario where you would support sending US forces on the ground in Iran?

JEFFRIES: No. In fact, candidate Trump suggested under no circumstances should American men & women be put into harm's way in this type of situation as it relates to another endless war in the Middle East

A remarkable rebuke of Kari Lake by Judge Royce C. Lamberth today: He has ruled in favor of Voice of America employees and nullified months of actions taken by Lake at the US Agency for Global Media, including mass layoffs. The plaintiffs say they feel "vindicated and deeply grateful" >>>

Oil up by $12 a barrel in less than 12 hours.

Gas prices skyrocketing.

Almost 100,000 jobs lost last month.

Another war in the Middle East.

Are we great again yet?

Trump's War If Trump campaigned as a President of peace, he has governed as the opposite

TIME asked Trump if Americans should be concerned about attacks at home. "I guess," the president said.

S&P 500 down.
Dow tanking.
NASDAQ bleeding.
Gas up 60Β’ in ONE week.
92,000 jobs gone.
This isn’t bad luck β€” this is the direct result of reckless, chaotic leadership. Your wallet is paying the price.

To be clear, whenever fascist republican scum like Karoline Leavitt mention President Obama’s middle name Hussein, it’s not to show respect, it’s for white supremacy purposes and to somehow paint him as complicit with terrorists. Their white hoods are always on display.

How black slaves were routinely sold as β€˜specimens’ to ambitious white doctors The horrors of slavery also spread to research: black bodies provided easy targets for medical experiments.

This is how it’s done: coming together and thanking and supporting your opponent. At the end of the day, we must elect a Democrat in Texas to stop billionaires, Trump, and Republicans from stealing from hardworking Americansβ€”and take back Texas and our country!

As of this moment the WH has not ordered U.S. flags lowered for the 6 service members killed in a drone strike in Kuwait.

On Sept 10th, 2025, the flag was lowered 5 hrs after Charlie Kirk was shot.

Yes, I’m f’n outraged!
