This is fantastic. I just wish they had courage before they announced retirement

Bunch of Senators on both sides sounding the alarm about possible boots on the ground in Iran after their classified briefing today.

I was told Kamala was going to send my children to fight in Iran. What happened?

A democratic candidate just won in the *checks notes*

Arkansas state house special election.

Flip from R to D.

Just a thought, maybe SecDef shouldn’t jerk himself off on live television at the thought of casualties in war.

War isn’t something to be giddy about. Were the most powerful nation on the planet. We’re supposed to be the quiet professionals, not carnival barking morons.

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.

Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

And that’s how congressional hearings are supposed to work.

Hopefully there will be some fraud charges to go with it.

But way to shit your pants and change your shirt, Trump.

Oh my , that looks painful.

The US Embassy in Riyadh seems to have taken a direct hit.

No idea on casualties, but it looks bad. Hope it was evacuated.

CENTCOM now says 3 F-15s were shot down by friendly fire over Kuwait. All crew members are alive and in good condition. 🤦‍♂️

Trump and Hegseth both opened the door to boots on the ground in Iran today.

Who the fuck voted for that?

Even by cult standards, this is just bonkers.

Chris Murphy: "It won't be the billionaire children of Donald Trump and his buddies that die. It's going to be the children of middle class and poor families all across this country that are gonna die for a war of choice, a war of vanity, an illegal war."

Chris Murphy: "We need to stand up for the American citizens that ICE is murdering, the kids they're terrorizing. They should stop this illegal war and they should stop ICE from terrorizing our communities. We should demand they do both things."

Lyft is stepping in — offering 50% off rides this week for trans and gender-nonconforming Kansans impacted by the law.

Meanwhile, two Kansas residents have joined the ACLU in suing the state, arguing the law is unconstitutional and seeking an emergency injunction to block it.

And find a way to interfere with the mid-terms.

I don’t think we’ve heard the last of Iran yet. They have an extensive succession plan, their military has standing strike orders in the case of decapitation strikes, etc.

Now that they’ve announced the Supreme Leader’s death, I would expect a big retaliation, or at least an attempt at one.

I think they were too kind, honestly.

They didn’t call him a fucking idiot.

Are you at all surprised that the most prestigious medical journal said this about a guy who snorted cocaine off toilet seats?

I don’t think the US will be attacked militarily, but I think there’s definitely an escalated risk of sleeper cells, lone wolf attacks, etc. in the coming weeks.

I was glad to see that the government issued multiple announcements on that possibility today.

What about the Epstein Files? Did trump provide enough distraction today so you forgot they really should be called the TRUMP EPSTEIN FILES?

Our Worst Nightmare Has Come True, Trump Threatens Total Authoritarianism - Sarah Kendzior YouTube video by The Mark Thompson Show

"Trump in some respects is an unimportant figure. He is the frontman for overlapping criminal networks. It is those networks, working for decades, that need to be examined most."

Yep

Bondi has spent this entire hearing crashing out, talking about the stock market, and trying to do anything but talk about Epstein.

The American people see through this bullshit.

Innocent people don’t act this way.

It’s the Epstein Administration.

No wonder Bondi spent the entire hearing screeching and deflecting.

I could tell you, but some people have eaten today and that wouldn’t be fair to them

Watching the administration try to tweet their way through this Epstein fallout is really something.

Wise man once said: if you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.

House Republicans are calling for an investigation into Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show over “widespread twerking and pelvic thrusts.”

Fact.

Apparently inflation, border policy, and the debt can wait…but hips at halftime demand immediate federal oversight.

Hey, Propaganda Barbie:

We aren’t moving on from people trafficking 10-year-old children and this administration covering it up.

Ever.

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."
