The lack of media coverage about the bombing of the girls elementary schools is shocking.

Watching the Braves vs Blue Jays feed and they are making fun of the Canadian hockey teams. Saying the Canadian flag should be flown at half mast.

WTF. Dickheads.

Breaking news; New evidence shows that it was a USA bomb that blew up the school with upto 200 little girls. Motive not known yet. In Iran some people are saying the Epstein Class hates little girls they are either sexually abuses or killed.

Today's abysmal jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy.

What's required is investment in working people β€” and better wages.

When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs.

Remember this.

BREAKING: Trump was just asked if Americans should be worried about retaliatory attacks at home: β€œI guess… Like I said, some people will die.”

You see... you can send Kristi Noem to the furthest reaches of the world BUT.....the policies of #DHS/ICE are NOT going to change. In fact, I would say the new DHS head Mullin might be even more aggressive in order to impress fearless leader.

Just a heads up. Mullin will step down from his Senate seat to replace Noem. Oklahoma law allows Governor Kevin Stitt to appoint Mullin’s replacement, but the appointee cannot run in the November 2026 election to prevent incumbency advantage. There will be no special election. πŸ”„

Dear @welch.senate.gov

If you’re being outflanked by Schumer you are … wrong.

Mullin is unfit. It’s not ambiguous. At all. Please stop helping fascists. In. Any. Way.

Mullin? He cheered ICE gunning down Renee Good, challenged a union President to fight in Congress and pushed deporting American babies. trump's installing a violence-loving bully to crush dissent and immigrants. Senate: Block this fascist thug

John Fetterman (Pa.)
Maggie Hassan (N.H.)
Tim Kaine (Va.)
Andy Kim (N.J.)
Gary Peters (Mich.)
Jeanne Shaheen (N.H.)
Elissa Slotkin (Mich.)

These Dem Senators have one thing in common. They all voted for Kristie Noem to head the DHS. Fetterman is a lost cause but the rest better not approve Mullin.

We shouldn’t be so concerned that Mullin doesn’t have a bachelor’s degree

Plenty of smart, successful people never went to college

We should be concerned that Mullin is unqualified, particularly stupid and ridiculously arrogant-a dangerous combination which is unfortunately very common among MAGA

He’ll leave it to Durbin, his Whip, to cobble together enough Democratic votes for cloture on Mullin’s nomination. And then they all get to say they voted against him.

I think Senate Democrats should A Few Good Men Markwayne Mullin at his confirmation hearing.

Senator: DID YOU ORDER THE CODE RED? DID YOU LIE ABOUT A NONEXISTENT RECORDING AT A CONGRESSIONAL HEARING?

Mullin: Jumps over table, punches Senator in the face.

It just seems insane that any Dem would describe Mullin as "respected." It promotes a normalcy bias for MAGA that is never reciprocated. No Republican would ever describe Sanders/Warren or even Ossoff/Warnock in such glowing terms, esp. if they were about to fill an antagonistic position.

Most of the media is demanding that everybody supports the war effort. Well, sod that. This is an illegal conflict, launched by a decrepit American to distract from his domestic problems, which has already killed hundreds of women and children. I didn’t back the Iraq war in 2003. Nor this one!

What makes us think Noem wasn’t sacked because ICE wasn’t killing MORE innocent civilians.

So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.

That's roughly $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

People do not want this.

They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

Ted Lieu to Kristi Noem: β€œI just showed you a video with ICE officers at a school drop-off location β€” your refusal to commit to stopping these operations at or near schools & drop-off locations is why you're failing β€” so I'm going to show you this video that encapsulates why you're failing”

Yeah, 15/10 for Him or 150% just Great because he's profiting off the War. They already paid him almost $25 Million toward the campaign to launch the War. Now, he has to destabilize #iran for his Donors. Very Old People make decisions for today, because they know they won't be around for the Fallout

An appeals court throws out a massive civil fraud penalty against President Trump Trump, in a social media post, claimed "total victory" after the ruling, which spares him from a potential half-billion-dollar fine for decades of exaggerating his wealth.

It's his MO. He has a long and criminal history of inflating numbers. When asked how he would rate his 2nd term he replied A+++. Grandiosity is a part of sadistic malignant narcissism.

Trump said the U.S. is β€œdoing very well on the war front, to put it mildly.” Then he gives the U.S. a 15 out of 10 grade for the Iran war. πŸ₯΄

Six Americans are dead and he’s grading it like a game.
