“Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed...This is not a way of life...it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.”
-Dwight Eisenhower 1953
The new head of the Department of Homeland Security needs a little lift.
Trump was just asked if Americans should be worried about retaliatory attacks by Iran within the United States:
“I guess… Like I said, some people will die.”
So we’re like Germany in 1939. But we’re going to wait longer to violate the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact after invading Poland. bsky.app/profile/acyn...
get a load of Kristi Noem's facial expressions as Rep. Kamlager-Dove enters articles in the congressional record with headlines like, "Lewandowski taking out trash at Noem's DC home" and "ICE Barbie's mile high private chamber with alleged lover exposed"
When you're breaking a veteran's arm, you're losing, and you're on the wrong f*ckin' side.
Happy #WomensHistoryMonth from DJT.
He really is such a pos.

NOEM: Our federal detention centers are held to the highest standards in comparison to other detaining facilities
McBATH: Did you just hear me? He has to crawl through mold and feces and bodily fluids just to take a shower. This is absolute lunacy and you know it.
BREAKING: The Texas Secretary of State DID NOT UPDATE the precinct maps on their website last December. MY GOD @msnowreports.bsky.social
Ken Paxton is committing brazen Election Fraud tonight in the Texas primary election.
Release the Epstein Files and the War will immediately End👇🏻
Ecuador’s economy depends primarily on exports. Their main exports are agricultural products and petroleum products. What a shock!
Congratulations to @ginafortexas.bsky.social!
Rep. Hinojosa has fought valiantly for working Texans across the state and stood up to GOP extremism during her time in the Texas House.
She has the DNC’s full support as she runs for governor. Let’s get her elected!
It’s wild to see her go harder on Trump than 99% of the Democratic Party.
I’m still laughing at how Hillary Clinton ate James Comer’s lunch, schooled Anna Paulina Luna, put Lauren Boebert in her place, and just overall dominated her deposition in front of the House Oversight Committee.
She owned them, and it was glorious.
👏
I just left a classified briefing on Iran, and here's what I can say: it is so much worse than you thought. You are right to be worried.
Minnesota is mourning the loss of Sergeant First Class Nicole M. Amor of White Bear Lake who was killed in Kuwait on Sunday.
She answered the call to serve and gave her life in service to our state and nation. Minnesotans are wrapping our arms around her loved ones.
I just viewed the Epstein files. A few things are clear:
1. Trump’s name is all over them.
2. The DOJ is breaking the law and denying the victims justice.
3. A single 3-hour viewing was not enough time. I will be back.
If you have questions, let me know in the comments.
‘We May Be Putting Boots on the Ground’: Senator Alarmed by Iran Briefing With Trump Officials Mediaite
Trump is lying.
I serve on the Intel & Armed Services Committees.
There’s no intelligence that Iran posed an imminent threat to the U.S. or the American people.
The President chose the timing of this war, and he also chose to oppose reforms to restrain DHS after their agents killed American citizens.
Anyone who thinks Trump's illegal war with Iran is going to coerce us into giving ICE and CBP a blind eye and a blank check is mistaken.
Wow. The U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem tells Americans they’re on their own.
Women should rule the earth forever after all this bullshit.
Don't worry everybody, there's a 22 yo in charge of counter terrorism and Kash Patel fired most of the experts in Iranian militant groups.
He doesn’t stand for anything.
I was at the WHCD where W played the “funny” video of him pretending to search the White House for WMD. I felt like no amount of showers would ever get me clean. Any reporter who goes to this year’s dinner will be willingly marinating in far more toxic filth.
A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.
We mustn’t let this war do so.
THIS.
Donald Trump is dragging the United States into a war the American people do not want. Let me be clear: I am opposed to a regime-change war in Iran, and our troops are being put in harm’s way for the sake of Trump’s war of choice.
Read my full statement:
The American people now see Trump for who he is — a would-be dictator who does not care what Americans think or want, cares nothing about our Constitution or our laws, and sees himself as a kind of eighteenth-century king, with unlimited power to drag us into wars without the consent of the people.
