Normalise the second question when you meet an American outside of America being β€œwho did you vote for?”

Screenshot of an X post by Senator Tom Cotton saying Iran has been an imminent threat to the United States for 47 years and that the president was right to act. Below is a Fox News segment with Cotton speaking while footage labeled β€œU.S. Central Command – Unclassified” shows a strike.

β€œImminent.” You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

The Trump regime has abandoned the constitution:

- declared war without Congressional authorization

- ignoring multiple court orders

- impounding Congressional authorized funds

- ignoring the freedom of speech and assembly

It’s a lawless regime that has no legitimacy.

Here’s a thought for James Comer.

There IS a First Lady who has had a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. And it’s not Hillary Clinton.

It might be worthwhile for Comer to subpoena the First Lady who actually knows Epstein.

You know, just to see what she knows.

I think we need to take a step back and acknowledge the absurdity of House Republicans targeting their Epstein investigation on HILLARY CLINTON (who says she never met him!) while ignoring DONALD TRUMP (who Epstein described as his best friend!)

These are not serious people or good faith actors.

MAGA Activists Pitch Trump on Chilling β€œNational Emergency” Plot Pro-Trump activists say they’re in close contact about an executive order that would expand the president’s powers to intervene in elections.

This election plot is being pushed by Peter Ticktin, Donald Trump's friend from "boarding school"? You mean the New York Military academy Donald attended from age 13 - 18? Peter Ticktin who was once disbarred in Florida for professional misconduct?

Peter Ticktin, who was born and raised in Canada.

I presume he's a Naturalized US citizen, but like Musk and Tiel he's another foreign-born American who is not abiding his Oath to protect and defend the Constitution.

Indeed, he, Musk, and Tiel are attacking our Constitution and Democracy.

Why is Ticktin, a guy who was born and raised in Canada, trying to destroy our democratic way of life?

If he's a Naturalized US citizen, then he's failing to abide his Oath to protect and defend the Constitution.

Indeed, he's attacking our Constitution on specious grounds.

The real national emergency is Naturalized US citizens like Ticktin, Elon Musk, and Peter Thiel trying to destroy our democratic way of life.

They are not only abusing their Oaths to protect and defend our Constitution, they are foreign-born "enemies domestic" who are attacking it.

So Attorney Peter Ticktin the guy pushing Trump to federalize national US elections on the bases of a spurious national emergency was born and raised in Canada.

I presume he's a Naturalized US citizen, but what's the deal with foreign-born American trying to destroy our democracy? (1/)

Elizabeth Warren: "This one is to me not even open or arguable. How would the US government keep money that the Supreme Court said it did not legally collect from American businesses, that it did not legally take away from American families that ultimately paid this?"

Good piece, Jess. It's a sad story all around.

I feel bad for Michael B. Jordan, Delroy Lindo, and others who were hurt by the slurs, and I feel awful for Mr. Davidson.

Our little black Shih Tzu, Daisy, is standing in a sunlit field with light green trees behind her.

She wears a red harness with her dog tag hanging near the center of her chest. 

She's looking slightly off to her left with her mouth open.

Their list of "politically exposed persons" in the files is a bit crazy - it includes Marilyn Monroe, who died when Epstein was 9, but leaves out Thorbjorn Jagland, the former Prime Minister of Norway who was so "politically exposed" that he was just arrested for his Epstein ties! 3/

NEW: A page from Bondi's burn book. This is a list of the searches by Rep Jayapal of the unredacted Epstein files. That means the DOJ grabbed her search terms from the computers they set up for members of congress to view the Epstein files to use as ammunition. The photo is from Reuters.
