WASHINGTON: Despite republicans’ best efforts, including a 24 hour filibuster-style debate — “the state house approved a levy on incomes over $1 million… pays for free breakfast & lunch for k-12 students…”

I don’t think unconditional surrender is imminent.
When Iranian news is more honest than American news, if a bit repetitive.
Ossoff: "The president appears increasingly to have lost touch with reality. That is deeply concerning when you have a a cabinet much more concerned with winning his favor than giving good advice & the nation now plunged into war. It speaks to the necessity of winning these midterms in a landslide."
Fetterman is a whore, bought and paid for by Israel.
Fetterman doesn’t even give a shit about the kids in Iran. Let that in for a second.
Carl withdrew from the nomination process today.
I have never met anyone who is more adept at tracking every last cent they have than people who live or have lived in poverty
it is a skill developed out of necessity and it never leaves you
KENNEDY: You said, 'Republicans think can troll their way to ethnic cleansing.' Did I read that correctly?
BIER: DHS tweeted for 100m deportations. That would be ethnic cleansing!
K: You don't think it's hyperbolic?
B: I think advocating 100m deportations is ethnic cleansing. Yes. Your time is up
Trump said this week that Iran was 2 weeks away from having a nuclear bomb. This is what he said in July.
Schatz: We don’t know for sure, but the likely bombing of an elementary school with one of our Tomahawk missiles is not a one-off mistake. It is the result of a change in policy so that the United States has way looser rules of engagement — way more tolerance for civilian harm.
Not really breaking any news here.
This is the guy who likes to downplay non-fatal injuries suffered by US service members in combat.
Mockler: The neocon boomers surrounding Trump are mortgaging my generation's future for another very expensive Middle Eastern war. We tried this with Iraq. We tried this with Afghanistan. It left us in trillions and trillions of dollars in debt.
JUST IN: Democrats flip a seat in the New Hampshire state House.
Dem Bobbi Boudman has won today’s special election, NHJournal reports.
(Boudman was the Dem nominee in 2024 & lost by 14%; Trump won here by 9%.)
This is Dems’ third legislative flip so far this year, after Texas and Arkansas.
Remarkable: With support for the Iran war tanking, Trump is now throwing away the GOP's advantage on three core issues: Economy, immigration, national security.
A year ago it looked like he might be popular on all three. He lit it all on fire. 1/

🔵 Democrats flip another seat in the New Hampshire State House.
Democrat Bobbi Boudman wins a special election in a Trump+9 district, after losing the same seat by 14 points in 2024. A 13-point Democratic overperformance.
Mockler: I also find it very ironic that Republicans are so welcoming to any form of bigotry but the moment that bigotry is targeted towards them, they freak the hell out
Since Trump’s election:
🔵 Democrats have flipped 28 state legislative seats
🔴 Republicans have flipped 0

WATCH — @jamestalarico.bsky.social : “Every dollar we spend bombing people in the Middle East is one we’re not spending here at home. We’re always told we don’t have enough money for schools or healthcare or for veterans, but there’s always enough to bomb people on the other side of the world.”

Trump is letting huge corporations that suck up to him evade antitrust enforcement.
State attorneys general should fight back by filing their own lawsuits to break up Live Nation/Ticketmaster and block Paramount's acquisition of Warner Bros.
Enough of Trump's oligarchy.
You can judge a family by the company it keeps.
The bottom line is Trump sacrificed 8 American lives (& counting) and more than 1,000 Iranian lives (& counting) for nothing. He hurt the US & global economies, destabilized the Middle East, & will pull out with the same Iranian regime in power. There's no silver lining.
A senseless, criminal waste
Breaking Epstein Investigation Update! NM DOJ has begun searching Zorro Ranch. ⬇️
Who put this MFer in charge of the world?
Trump: All of the people that died through the roadside bombs. Died and are right now walking around with no legs.
Reich is right.

Christian Nationalism is NOT Christianity, but it is a national security threat.
📌 The Military Religious Freedom Foundation says it has received over 200 complaints that troops are being told war with Iran is meant to accelerate “Armageddon.”
