Trump started a war to coverup his past and you're paying for it. https://iran-cost-ticker.com/
And now disaster is fully inevitable
Trump's war on Iran is illegal — full stop
No Congressional authorization, no imminent threat, no legal basis under the Constitution, the War Powers Resolution, or the UN Charter
A president does not get to start a war alone

Damn
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frekeriksen has said that a US attack on Greenland would effectively end NATO. But with Russia an ever-present threat, Norway's hands would be tied if its primary defender invaded its neighbor, @brettvsimpson.bsky.social reports from Norway: www.icwa.org/norway-us-na...
Racism is not an unknowable disease of the heart, it's a provable set of actions and responses. That's why the @nytimes.com can't handle. For them to admit that Trump is racist would mean they'd have to admit they been carrying the water for a racist all these years. They won't ever do that.
The G.O.P. Senator Who Can’t Stop Thinking About the Boy ICE Detained Katie Britt is uniquely positioned to reason with the Trump administration — when she chooses to speak up.
Representative Joaquin Castro of Texas said in a post on social media that he had picked up Liam and his father, Adrian Conejo Arias, from the Dilley detention center on Saturday night and escorted them to Minnesota on Sunday morning. He shared photos of the two on social media, including one showing Liam at the airport clutching what appeared to be a Pikachu toy and wearing a Pikachu backpack. Mr. Castro was part of a delegation of Democratic lawmakers who visited Liam and his father at the detention center last week, where he said Liam’s father had reported that the child was “very depressed” and hadn’t been eating well since they were detained earlier this month.
This is a remarkable @nytimes.com split screen:
A huge 3,526 word + photos profile on Sen Britt who "can't stop thinking about the boy ICE detained"
But Rep Jaoquin Castro- who actually got Liam Ramos out of detention & back home- gets no interview, no pix, just 116 words inside a story. WOW.
Two men in ICE detention say they saw guards kill a fellow detainee. Now the Trump administration is trying to deport the witnesses.
This looks a lot like a cover-up. We need an independent investigation NOW. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...
This.
This has been the plan all along.
- Foment violence and chaos in the streets of MN
- Implement the Insurrection Act
- Declare Martial Law
- Suspend elections

A tweet from Ron Filipkowski reads: “Trump Org’s income in the first half of 2024 was $51 million. In the first half of 2025 it rose to $864 million. A massive percentage came from foreigners. It should be the biggest scandal in the history of American politics. But few even care.” Below the tweet is a Reuters image showing members of the Trump family and associates in suits cheering and raising their fists outside a building with a sign that reads Nasdaq. The caption reads: “Inside the Trump family’s global crypto cash machine.”
I care. I think you do, too. The swamp is now a damn tar pit.
