"How many elected Republicans could you get to state, unequivocally and on the record, that Trump cannot and will not run for a third term? That’s the foundation and I don’t think anyone appreciates what a sea change it represents for our country."

I just realized that we’ve had 3 Republican presidents over the last 38 years, and all 3 have gone to war in the Middle East.
the "not war" was declared by the Secretary of War who sent his Department of War Warfighters to fight in a war.
The warfighters from the department of war were sent by the secretary of war to simply carry out a “limited operation.”
There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.
Random US Soccer observation… the constant sound of drums in the background are coming close to vuvuzela levels of annoying to listen to through the entirety of every US domestic soccer game.
Staff at the nation’s largest Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility have placed bets on which detainee will be the next to die by suicide, according to new reporting from the Associated Press based on 911 calls and detainee accounts.
WATCH: If you STILL don’t understand how car-dependent suburbia is HEAVILY SUBSIDIZED by downtown and all the urban parts of your city, watch this EXCELLENT video by #NotJustBikes with #Urban3 & @strongtowns.bsky.social. And PLEASE SHARE it as much as possible.
I’ve sent it to a LOT of politicians.
@nytpitchbot.bsky.social Tom Homan is doxxing protesters the right way.
But I thought we were only supposed to focus on our hemisphere the “Donroe doctrine” and all, no?
As he sends soldiers to die…
The secretary of war said they were sending warfighters from the department of war to fight a war with Iran… but that’s just “limited operations”
Quick note: I'm traveling through Saturday, but I've read the FBI interviews with the woman who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her when she was a child. Significant redactions (and redacted dates for some reason?) and these aren't original FBI case files. We don't know what else is in her file
I'll also note that we still appear to be missing a ton of pages from this woman's file. There were at least *53 pages* missing (that we know about) and we still don't seem to have all of them — specifically the FBI's contemporaneous notes for these interviews
The Trump regime is still hiding Epstein records detailing an allegation that Trump sexually assaulted a girl who was age 13-15. We know these records existed at some point. The law requires their release.
Never forget that this what The Washington Post said when Noem was nominated.
Immature adolescents controling the strongest military in history.
Maybe they shouldn't have re-branded as the Department of WAR.
Somehow, in despite 10 years of increasingly deranged behavior from Trump and co, they find creative new ways to surprise me with their depravity.
Republican voters are more than welcome to do something moral or courageous that forces me to change my opinion of them. But we've lived in Trump world for a decade now and so far I've never gone wrong looking down on them.
It's OK to think that people who vote Republican are stupid.
Can all the major media outlets PLEASE stop sane-washing her? 🙄
Social media created this nonsense idea that not exposing yourself to hatred is isolationist. Choosing to not spend your free time with bigots isn’t living in a bubble. I don’t need to know what’s going on at X. I won’t be smarter or more knowledgeable or empathic by being there. Neither will you.
It’s insane this is legal. People around Trump are profiting off war and death. I’m introducing legislation ASAP to ban this.

Is it time yet for a “Mission Accomplished” banner?
“‘The persecution is the point,’ said Rep. Abi Boatman, a Wichita Democrat and the only transgender member of the Legislature, who received the [Kansas Dept of Revenue] notice on Wednesday.” To underscore that: a Kansas state legislator is among those whose driver’s license will be voided.
