goddamn is this a breath of fresh air after Allred 2024

Who would have guessed that the legal system in America was so fragile that a single crazy president could ignore the whole thing, from the Constitution right down to state laws?
Why does the Supreme Court and Congress let this demented moron act like the dictator of a banana republic?

Trump works for Putin. Trump is a traitor.

Oh my god no! The Iranians were developing Trump's healthcare plan.

Trump’s wearing of baseball cap during dignified transfer draws criticism President Trump faced continued blowback for wearing a USA-emblazoned cap during a dignified transfer ceremony for soldiers killed in the war with Iran.

This presser is fucking insane.

Trump threatened to target Iranian electricity production and “hit them so hard that nobody can ever rebuild in that location”

That’s not a thing. Even if we nuked them.

He also said we’re bombing Iran to help China. Batshit crazy.

Trump can walk away from this “little excursion” as he now calls it, but I have a feeling that Iran isn’t going to let bygones be bygones for a few more decades.

NBC’s Richard Engel: “The White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”

It’s past time for Trump and Hegseth to come clean on this. They already know the truth. What they are doing now is simply refusing to accept responsibility.

Trump said we were going to war to demand that Iran turn over all their enriched uranium to us, and we also demanded regime change where Trump would choose the new leader. Now Trump is apparently declaring victory after accomplishing none of that.

Donald Trump replaced an 86 year old Khamenei saying Death to America with a 56 year old Khamenei saying Death to America.

the president has no idea what he has set in motion. none.

Iran may be activating sleeper cells outside the country, alert says The U.S. has intercepted encrypted communications believed to have originated in Iran that may serve as “an operational trigger” for “sleeper assets."

“The U.S. has intercepted encrypted communications believed to have originated in Iran that may serve as "an operational trigger" for "sleeper assets" according to alert sent to law enforcement agencies.”

I was called an alarmist when I mentioned sleeper cells. 🤷‍♂️

So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion.

That's $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

Thousands of lives lost.

People don't 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.

Don’t worry, America. The House Republican majority is working hard for you at Trump’s golf resort in Miami this week.

Venezuela, Iran, Cuba, Greenland, Canada, and on and on and on. Lindsey Graham says they are “marching through the world.”
They don’t care how many US soldiers they get killed. Meanwhile, they’re building concentration camps at home for Americans to die in. What will it take for people to wake up?

He’s also sending Witkoff and Kushner to Israel on Tuesday.

Probably nothing to do with global markets cratering and oil going parabolic

The difference between the spike in global oil prices now versus 2022 is that this time the US president single-handedly caused it to happen overnight with a policy while accepting no responsibility, while the US president in 2022 was blamed for it even though he didn’t cause it.

Jesus, Japan’s Nikkei index is down over 4,000 points, over 7%

South Korea’s KOSPI is down 8% and hit a circuit breaker.

Tomorrow is gonna be brutal, but it will probably also eventually make Trump TACO.

Amazing how much damage one malignant narcissist can cause.

A year ago we were supposed to be getting $2,000 rebate checks, DOGE was going to find $2 trillion in waste to balance the budget, we were going to pay no income taxes because tariffs would pay for everything, gas and home electric bills would be cut in half, and no new wars.

that the Trump administration is trying to shut down a leading AI company because it’s unwilling to develop autonomous murder systems is terrifying, and should be of grave concern to everyone in the world

Fox showed footage of Biden looking at his watch 10 million times for months, but airs old footage of Trump rather than show him wearing a campaign hat he’s currently selling for $55 at the dignified transfer.

“Mothers are worried we’re gonna have a draft.”

KAROLIE: “President Trump wisely does not remove options off the table.” 😳🤔

Do they think all these stupid hats confer magic conquering powers or something?

I feel bad for his interpreters - imagine having to try to translate that interminable stream of unhinged gibberish into something vaguely coherent.

This is a bs “apology” from Fox. They claim it was “inadvertent” - a lie. They aired old footage because they didn’t want to show Trump wearing his campaign hat during the ceremony. Then in this statement they STILL don’t show the correct footage of Trump. bsky.app/profile/aaro...

Wow that’s pretty crazy. I mean, of course there are biases and gaps in any education system, but deliberately including lies as part of the curriculum seems so corrupt. And the fact that legislation is needed to prevent that seems so grim. But I guess that’s where things are.

"Oil prices are up about 50%. You should expect gas prices to rise about 50%... Gas... about $3 a gallon... you should therefore expect gas to be a bit above $4 a gallon...

So if you get an opportunity to stop by the president's gas station when he's seeing it at $2 a gallon... definitely fill up "
