Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far: A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

They didn’t bomb Iran last night because of intel. They did it on a hunch…like a drunk betting the mortgage on a long shot at 3 a.m. Problem is, this one might pay off in body bags, not winnings. Never trust Trump’s vibes. Several bankruptcies have shown they’re usually wrong.

As major U.S. cities brace for possible terror attacks in response to the strikes on Iran, just a reminder of who Trump put in charge of terror prevention God help us all

Fuck Khamenei. Fuck Netanyahu. Fuck Putin. Fuck Trump.

Oh.

AOC: “It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

To every Democrat in office: This is your moment. The country doesn’t need more speeches. It needs a legal, relentless strategy, and the kind of courage we honor on Memorial Day. Deliver it—or step aside. The clock is ticking. (Read my short letter to you, below.) www.jackhopkinsnow.com

I’m still waiting for CNN to devote multiple programming days to Trump’s obvious cognitive decline and dangerous mental instability.

ICE looking more and more like the American Gestpo.

As a former Republican who still speaks with Republicans daily, I wholeheartedly endorse asking every Republican you know this question.👇

“We” are fighting a foreign war with zero consultation with or authorization from Congress, and no address to the nation other than Truth Social posts.

Trump is in a foreign country today trashing American Democrats, trashing American cities, and advocating for Putin. In other words, nothing has changed from his previous trips.

One of my biggest disappointments in American discourse over the past decade has been the mainstream media. With very few exceptions, they have failed the American people miserably.

He’s disappearing innocent people off of our streets and ordering the military onto our streets. He does not give a damn about the rule of law. He is the very tyrant our founding generation rose up against 249 yrs ago. It’s time for the American people to rise up again.

Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"

I don't know about you, but Trump's handling of COVID resulted in SIXTY deaths of people I knew. No, not all were close friends, but I grew up with or around them. Think small town. You know how many lives of people I grew up with have been ended because of immigrants: ZERO, Goddamnit. ZERO.

Please share this deleted tweet far and wide. ABC News just suspended senior national correspondent Terry Moran for making it.

This is so wrong. All to feed the ego of a mad tyrant who never had the balls to serve. This is not what we do in America. This is so fucking wrong. Makes me so sad. And so angry.👇

I think we’re making some progress now on this therapy session. Yes, this is real.

"Biden was old but governed normally. Trump governs erratically *because* he’s unglued. That’s the true cover-up, one the media is enabling when they seem more concerned with the mental condition of a former president than the escalating madness of the current one."

Donald Trump’s mental decline is no longer just noticeable—it’s alarming. He rambles, repeats himself, speaks in circles, and veers into total incoherence. Republicans and the media need to stop the coverup and demand a full examination and public disclosure of his mental status.

I do understand that Biden’s inner circle covered up his decline. Got it. What I don’t understand is the same journalists and pundits pounding that story are ignoring this psychopath like it’s normal. I accepted Biden was old all along. I can’t accept this lunatic leading us.

Trump promised to end the war in 24 hours, has threatened Russia with additional sanctions 4 times in 4 months, has done nothing, Russia continues to bomb civilians indiscriminately, Trump refuses to condemn Putin for any of it, and only has harsh words for Zelensky and Biden.

25% tax on Apple products while singling out the CEO by name for retribution, 50% tax on European goods, expulsion of foreign students, bill passed with most debt in history, while hosting a dinner for people who gave you $300+ million. All in the last 24 hours. The Golden Age.

Today is unfortunately a good reminder of just how depraved many Trump supporters are. It should be the easiest thing in the world to just wish someone well in light of a devastating health diagnosis. That they can't even meet that very low bar says a lot about their character.

BREAKING: Over 100,000 Protest in The Hague for Gaza. This is one of the largest protests in The Hague in 60 years.

New American Pope Definitely Doesn’t Sound Supportive Of MAGA!

The guy who has been convicted of 34 felonies wants criminals out of the United States.

I guess Biden was too old to ruin the U.S. credit rating.

My Saturday PSA: Joe Biden isn’t the president anymore. Instead, we’ve got a mentally deranged and ethically compromised old man with the nuclear codes trespassing in the Oval Office. Stop talking about Joe Biden. Start talking about the Convicted Felon, Donald Trump.

Murphy: "There's no guarantee that we are gonna have a free and fair election in 2026. He's trying to rig our democracy, to destroy dissent, to cripple the opposition, so that even if his approval ratings are in the 30s next year, there isn't the ability for his opposition to muster a real campaign"
