Massive war price tag could be a massive problem for GOP leaders The prospect of a ballooning new spending bill has GOP leaders bracing for a messy internal fight.

👀🚨🚨“[S]ome GOP lawmakers hearing estimates that the Pentagon is spending as much as $2 billion a day on the war.”

Did you get that?

Trump is spending $2 BILLION A DAY to illegally bomb Iran.

Why would any self-respecting Democrat vote for this?

This is a real video from the official White House account on a war that is currently killing people. I don’t know how the US is going to come back from this.
The post was “JUSTICE THE AMERICAN WAY. 🇺🇸 🔥”

If/when Democrats get back in power - they will need to pursue methodical accountability through the U.S. constitution as the framers intended w a sense of fierce urgency. It has to be a priority if Ds are serious about reviving our democracy and a fair & equitable sense of law and order.

the New York Times practically created an entire "leftist campus antisemitism" vertical. I will be very curious to see how much attention it pays to this, and how clear it is about what it means.

Keep this in mind from @balint.house.gov.

BTW such sharp reporting from @jbendery.bsky.social (if you care about Cong and are not following her WYD).

Senate Democrat Pushes to Investigate Noem for Perjury

Blumenthal says he will call to investigate whether Noem "had lied under oath during a Senate hearing on Tuesday, when she said that Corey Lewandowski, one of her top advisers, did not approve contracts for the Department of Homeland Security."

Both House/Sen Dems need to keep the receipts.

Costco Says It Will Use Potential Tariff Refunds To Lower Prices It is unclear whether the wholesaler will receive tariff refunds, though it is one of several companies suing the Trump administration for the refunds.

"Costco will turn tariff refunds into lower prices for customers, the wholesaler’s CEO said during an earnings call Thursday, signaling savings for the wholesaler’s members if it can secure the payments" via lawsuit vs the Trump regime.

Good on Costco. Wish there were more corps like them.

Honestly, @people.com doing solid work in recent months in narrating news exactly as it is without both-siding soft peddling we see from certain so called elite traditional news media outlet.

Following this story's publication, a local reporter found that Rakhi Israni only recently registered as a Democrat from “No Party Preference" in Nov. 2025 and infrequently voted.

Someone else tipped me off to the fact that she was endorsed by the 4th largest donor to MAGA Inc/

“Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.”

Trump appears to be super chill about deaths of other Americans’ parents and kids.

I’d go further. Any D who votes to support Trump’s illegal war vs Iran either by voting against war powers res or for more funding - should never be elected by Ds in my fed office @ cong Dem leaders should hold them accountable by stripping them of leadership positions if they get to majority.

BTW shame on David Beckham - the owner of Inter Miami - for allowing his franchise to be used by the Trump regime. Just utterly disgraceful and repulsive and now am going to view him the same way I view another number 7 (who btw wrecked OGS's team at OT). #MUFC

If the Democrats return to power next January none of these Dems should be getting a leadership slot in any committees next year. If these Dems ever get in any position of leadership that means @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social & leadership don't give an F about accountability.

As #FIFA peace prize winner bombs thousands and thousands of targets in the Middle East - Lionel Messi trots in the White House to be a willing prop for the Trump regime.

I don't care how good Messi is - Eric Cantona he will never be. He is now part of this. #MUFC

we are getting a real grown up to replace a reported puppy killer with special mile high jets to take over the DHS. I am sure this will strengthen arguments to give more money to this agency for ICE and CBP. x.com/therecount/s...

Iranian warship sunk by the US was sailing home after taking part in an exhibition hosted by India Officials in New Delhi say that an Iranian warship that was sunk by a U.S. submarine near Sri Lanka had participated in naval exercises hosted by India before heading out into international waters in ...

👀 "Indian opposition leaders, however, on Thursday questioned the government’s lack of response to the incident, saying the sinking of the warship so close to India’s maritime neighborhood warranted an official statement."

This is now getting beyond messy ...

All Kristi Noem jokes outside - this latest news is not a good one for those who are constantly peddling doomerism and trying to crush hope.

Resistance is never futile; never ever lose hope.

Onward.

This is a good opportunity for @gallegoforarizona.com to engage this community and clear things up re where he stands on Trump's illegal war against Iran.

Let's see if he takes it.
