McGowan: You're saying 46 Americans died, so we should attack this country. Here at home, 68,000 Americans die a year because they don't have health insurance. So, if we're going to spend billions of dollars on something…

Blundering Forward, Trump Style Trump’s big policy mistakes follow a familiar pattern, and we should expect the same with the war in Iran.

Many of the biggest policy decisions of Donald Trump’s second term follow the same script: move fast, ignore the experts, break things, then spin the disastrous outcome as a victory. From DOGE to tariffs to the ICE surge in Minneapolis, the pattern keeps repeating. The war in Iran is next.

Not trying to be hyperbolic, I fear we are on the cusp of a 9/11 type catastrophe that this regime is unwilling and unable to protect us from.

When people say this moment feels alarming, they’re right.

But it’s important to recognize something else:

This didn’t begin yesterday.

It began the moment a presidency decided that truth was whatever the president said it was.πŸ‘‡

Behold! A $100,000-dollar American missile, launched by a $20 million plane that flies at a cost of $6,000 dollars/hour to kill people who live on less than $3 a day in Iran.

Meanwhile in America, Republican lawmakers believe that a $6.20 daily SNAP benefit providing food to a needy person is wasteful spending, so A BIG BEAUTIFUL ACT of legislation was passed to remedy that in order to bolster the economy of the greatest nation in the world. -Jacob Lassiter

Ah, the ol' "actually, they bombed themselves" routine that Israel used whenever they bombed hospitals in Gaza.

Reporter: Did the US bomb an elementary school and kill 175 people?

Trump: Based on what I’ve seen, it was done by Iran. 

Reporter: Is that true Mr. Hegseth?
Hegseth: We’re investigating. 

Trump: It was done by Iran. They are very inaccurate with their munitions.

Gas prices have already risen 14% because of Donald’s Operation Epstein Distraction. He did that.

Seems like the media should at least express some curiosity about this.

In tonight's speech, the president did what he does best: celebrate himself. But if anyone was looking for leadership focused on easing their current economic pain, he made clear that they'll need to look elsewhere.

Gov. Abigail Spanberger: "The scale of the corruption is unprecedented. There's the cover up of the Epstein files, the crypto scams, cozying up to foreign princes for airplanes and billionaires for ballrooms, putting his name and face on buildings all over our nation's capital."

Massie goes full beast mode today.

Gets on the house floor, shreds the DOJ and starts naming names from the Epstein files.

The liar lied again.

It's been an hour and half and Donald Trump hasn't said a single thing about child care.

Trump knows his State of the Union is garbage, so he turned it into a cheesy award show. Handing out trophies to distract from a country he’s actively breaking. 🎭 #SOTU

Trump is bragging about working to eliminate fraud. (Vance is going to go to war on it apparently)

Unmentioned: Most of his presidential pardons have been for people convicted of money laundering and fraud... to the tune of over $1 billion.
