FIFA called and they’re all good.

Don’t have to hope when you can false flag.

"The one unforgivable thing is making money off of him. And the way he views this, the federal budget is his money... If you are spending that money to get something over for yourself...then you're stealing from him."

@jvl.bsky.social on Kristi Noem's cardinal sin.

Just finished a book by a prominent contemporary author. Loved one of their books but this revisitation of sorts seemed like a swing and a miss. Some great (read “big”) ideas that didn’t quite come together for me. Add my opinion to others - decidedly mixed.

Not “what”, but “who” and I think we all know the answer to that.

Kristi's out. Markwayne's in. Corey's flexible.
#DHS needs to be dismantled.

Yep. Midterms gonna be lit.

Agreed

A reminder that evil racist murderous scumbag Greg Abbott and indicted criminal Ken Paxton robbed Rep. Jasmine Crockett of her House seat by making her district nonexistent. Those are the asshole traitors that need to be taken out of power so that Texas can turn blue one day.

Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran - what do these countries have in common?

That doesn’t even math. And he’s balancing the country’s checkbook?

And that *fvcking* flag pocket square. We’re being lead to slaughter by a roving band of juveniles.

It’s the Gaza strategy on a wider scale.

If they’re trying to message success at this stage, we’re losing.

We’ve significantly degraded our ability to defend against future threats to - what exactly? Because if it is to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons I’d remind these chicken hawks, we had already done that. But then Trump, in a fit of pique, chose to tear up that agreement.
Unconscionable.

I KNEW it!

Trying to wrap my head around the fact that we spend Trillions on defense and we’re running out of munitions 3 days into a war of choice to topple an 86 year old man.

You just know that “free of charge” part is eating at him -

Hey, remember how we let a nazi near-trillionaire annihilate the US state capacity? I know it was a whole year ago, but it turns out that this has consequences beyond "murdering 14 million people by ending USAID" (which apparently no one cared about).

If you want to see a Senator frustrated, angry, exhausted - watch this interview. His demeanor is a whole subtext.

I refuse to root for Ken Paxton to pull this out because even though I think he’s more beatable I’m old enough to remember thinking that about Trump in 2016.

He never pays in full. If he pays at all. This is a big story. Defiance of a SCOTUS ruling.

No. The answer is no.

interesting that it's taken as a given that the US should have a hand in shaping who the iranian people choose as their leader

Someone could make a fortune in social media just by inventing a sarcasm font

You could have picked a handful of random dudes with face tattoos at the 7-11 and cobbled together a better cabinet.

There are a hundred examples just today why waiting for Nov 2026 or 2028 is not going to -

And if by Armageddon they mean their incompetence is likely to kill us all, then maybe (?).

This is what I have been saying forever. The only reason Republicans pretend to care about “the Jewish people” is that they need Israel for the Rapture to happen and then all the Jews will burn in Hell. Criticizing Israel’s government isn’t antisemitic but THAT sure is.
