Notice how George W. Bush, a man who went AWOL, and Donald Trump, a man who dodged the draft five times, are so eager to send your children to die in wholly unnecessary wars?

I think if you’re a lawmaker calling for U.S. military action against Iran, you should be required to post a verified video of yourself pointing it out on an unlabeled map and offering at least an undergraduate level summary of the past five years of Iranian foreign policy.

When Congress funded the DOD, there was no line item for big-boy birthday presidential military parades. Where did the money for Trump’s vainglorious spectacle come from? Cutting Army pay and benefits? Reducing training? Or just Departmental slush funds from bloated annual budgets?

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

One thing Newsom has shown is key to effectively deal with Trump & the MAGA propaganda machine: You must respond immediately & call out the lies. You can’t wait until hours/days later, then answer in a press conference, statement, scripted speech. All Dems should learn from it.

NEW: Unbelievable. A seemingly endless line of tanks & other military vehicles arrive in DC ahead of next week's parade. They departed Texas 5 days ago. What a colossal waste of time, money & military resources. All for a President who has shown zero respect for service personnel. (🎥 DW)

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.

Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social, Donald Trump is publicly supporting a conspiracy theory that Joe Biden was actually killed in 2020 and replaced by a robot clone. Just a heads up in case you know of anyone who might be interested in investigating the cognitive deterioration of the commander-in-chief.

Interesting that the administration that claims to dislike it when refugees seek residency illegally is arresting refugees in courts when the seek immigration legally. MAGAs are just xenophobic white supremacist bigots.

Next time someone in Congress glibly dismisses your need for healthcare, remember that they have some of the best healthcare in the country. And it was paid for by YOU.

It’s not Zelensky’s war or Biden’s war or Trump’s war. It is Putin’s war. Why can’t Trump simply say that? Why is he obsessed with blaming everyone else? It is a simple and obvious truth that should be stated with moral clarity. But the US president is a liar and a coward.

In other words, he promised repeatedly during the campaign he had a secret plan to end the war in 24 hours and he was just bullshitting everyone because he doesn’t have the first clue what to do, he gave away all negotiating leverage months ago, and his special envoy is a dope.

Today, Trump "hosted" the President of South Africa and attempted to confront him with false claims of "white genocide" in his country whilst also openly hinting that he would be open to a bribe from South Africa, in case you're wondering why I don't give a fuck about Jake Tapper's book.
