Trump posted on his social media account about the people of Iran that "I, as the 47th President of the United States of America, am killing them. What a great honor it is to do so!”

This is the very same Trump who once listed protecting the people of Iran as one of his rationales for war.

It’s pretty wild that we KNOW there is compromising blackmail on our current president and it’s just kind of ignored.

Please read and share. The “grassroots” support for the SAVE America Act is a lie. The campaign pushing this bill is being run by Cleta Mitchell and Scott Presler, two of the most notorious election deniers in the country.

Another word you might use for it is "looting".

"This appears to be the first administration to take such widespread advantage of taxpayer-funded military housing to accommodate political appointees who do not have a direct connection to the military..."

CHRIS HAYES: “are you a yes, or no on the supplemental appropriations bill to continue to fund this war?”

SEN. CHRIS VAN HOLLEN: “I’m a hell no on any more money for this war.” 🔥

I appreciate Senator Van Hollen’s clear-cut answer here. No gameplaying!

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."

Trump seems to think he’s been exonerated from the biggest child sex crime in history. The coverup continues.

Fears for women’s rights in Chile as anti-abortion president set to take office José Antonio Kast, who voted against legalising divorce in 2004, has pushed for return to total abortion ban

Chile's new president is extremely right-wing, Catholic, with Nazi roots. But women in Chile are strong and organized. “Women are having abortions right now, they will be doing it tomorrow, and they will keep doing it – no rightwing government will stop that." - member of Con las Amigas y En La Casa

As a congressman, Markwayne Mullin made not one but two solo trips to Afghanistan, ignoring State Department warnings so he could play action hero.

He’s a former amateur MMA fighter, not a veteran.

If he’d been captured or injured, American troops would’ve had to risk their lives to bail him out.

Q: "The president said yesterday that President Putin told him he wanted to be helpful in the Middle East…How does the president think Russia could be helpful?"

Leavitt: "I'll leave it to the president to divulge any more of that conversation."

Federal agents lied about why they shot a Venezuelan man in Minneapolis. Their story quickly fell apart. The attack marked the only time that federal authorities admitted wrongdoing during Operation Metro Surge.

Then-DHS Secretary Kristi Noem doubled down, denouncing the incident as an act of “attempted murder” on law enforcement. Her agency published mugshots of all three men arrested in connection with the alleged assault, casting them as “violent criminals.”

None of it was true.

Thought I would have gotten used to it by now, but I’m still grappling with the realization of just how stupid the men running this country are.
