🤦‍♀️ Ugh, that’s awful.

he cannot because the filing deadline passed. the republican timed his withdrawal to prevent popular democrats from filing. they didn’t file previously because they thought it would be an expensive race against an incumbent.

I can’t stop yelling Benghazi at the media who seems to have forgotten what they did …

Well, imagine that …

Trump has now posted at least 7 times about Bill Maher this morning. All of these articles are from mid February.

Former Israeli PM Golda Meir:
...but it will be harder for us to forgive them for having forced us to kill their sons. Peace will come when the Arabs will love their children more than they hate us.

This is not a conflict that will be resolved in a few weeks, America.

Thread 4/5🧵

The problem here/real damage, is long-term & that is the world used to operate on the 🇺🇲 operating system: our laws/we settled trades in dollars/we protected the shipping lanes—We just torpedoed a ship—we used to be the nation protecting others from rogue nations—we are the rogue nation.

Thread 3/5🧵

Republican senators are calling it "special operations," "combat operation," he's calling it "war." We're going to be there—it's going to be regime change—no, it's not going to be regime change. This could be over in five days, we'll stay as long as we need to.

The fact that we had to call in the 🇺🇦 to help us out, when we've deprived them of the Tomahawk missiles that would have taken out the 🇷🇺 drone factories that they're then supplying to the Iranians is—what's the right term for that?

IT IS IRONIC🃏

Thread 1/5🧵

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

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 — and better wages.

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

Remember this.

Would Jon Tester consider running again? 🙏

And this is who they replaced the incredibly decent Jon Tester with.

I'd forgotten about that!

*That* falls in line with today's lunacy.
Either fake hero or unneeded hero helper.

Forgot to mention: MT Sen. Sheehy is of course the guy who pretended he was wounded in Afghanistan when really he'd shot himself with his own firearm in a park in Montana. That also was never fully explained. Montanans seem to have a high tolerance for crazy. 6/

With just minutes before filing deadline closes, Daines shocks Montana by withdrawing • Daily Montanan U.S. Attorney for Montana Kurt Alme receives Daines endorsement for Senate as two-term incumbent announces retirement

Correction: Kurt Alme, now running for Senate in MT in Daines' place, is not the MT AG but the US Atty for MT.

Daines didn't explain much: "I have decided I will not seek re-election. It is time for a new leader like Tim Sheehy to spearhead the fight..." Sheehy who broke a Marine's arm today. 5/

The bizarro Montana Senate politics are of interest to this account because on Jan 6, MT Rep. Matt Rosendale was the last person in to come out of the alley by the RNC before the pipe bomb was found there: he'd gone in, waited for 18 minutes, then come out again. That was never explained either. 4/

Montana Rep. Matt Rosendale withdraws from Senate race days after announcing campaign He withdrew from the race after former president Donald Trump endorsed a different candidate

This is the 2nd Montana Senate race in a row with a bizarre withdrawal: in 2024 Rep. Matt Rosendale withdrew just days after he announced his run, talking vaguely of "defamatory rumors". He had in fact slept with a staffer, but seems he was pressured out and that's never been fully explained. 3/

Seven GOP lawmakers make a misguided trip to Russia The problem has less to do with seven congressional Republicans going to Russia for the 4th of July and more to do with what they did while they were there.

Daines' last-minute withdrawal was seemingly a calculated move since 8 minutes before the deadline the unelected Montana AG filed to run in his place. No one has explained why.

Daines of course is one of the 8 US lawmakers who made that infamous, unexplained July 4, 2018 trip to Moscow. 2/

The Montana Senate delegation continues a its crazy streak: today one Senator (Sheehy) broke a uniformed Marine vet's arm and the other (Daines) withdrew from his race at the last minute, making way for an unknown R candidate. That's the 2nd Montana Senate race in a row with a bizarre withdrawal. 2/

MAKE AMERICA SOMETHING IT COULD NEVER BE. WISE. Rideshare. Carpool. Walk. Bicycle. Use EV. Stop buying “one use” plastics. Think ethically. Negotiating with oligarchy and Big Oil is analogous to trying to be friends with someone who wants to harm you.

An AI tries to answer a question about interest earned over a year and the math is wildly inaccurate

AI math, everyone. And Microsoft's CEO has the gall to be like, "Why does nobody use our AI service? Is it because a lot of times it answers incorrectly?"

Except, magat Mikey, your Orange Pedofuehrer has already said it is war.

US House Speaker Mike Johnson said the US is not at war with Iran and has no intention of starting one, describing the operation as limited. "Trump and the Defense Department have made that clear," Johnson said. #Iran

"SMO"

Now that they're trying to pretend their war is not a war, they've gone back to calling it the Defense Department.

This is protocol in any other WH because it is simple human decency.

Great fucking question.

So what if citizens can’t comply with paying taxes?

Are we all good then?
