⚡️'Dead and wounded everywhere' — Russia strikes Dnipro with ballistic missiles, hits civilian train. Russia launched a deadly missile attack on the Ukrainian city of Dnipro on June 24, striking civilian infrastructure and a passenger train, local officials reported.

⚡️Russian strikes kill 4, injure 5 in Kherson Oblast. Russian drone and artillery strikes on Kherson Oblast killed four people and injured five others between June 23-24, local officials said. Twenty-nine settlements, including the city of Kherson, were hit.

Justice Sotomayor said it best: the conservative majority is “rewarding lawlessness.” Migrants are being deported—without notice or due process—to countries they’ve never even set foot in. This is what happens when the Court starts playing politics.

JUST HAPPENED: West: “You can’t violate another country’s sovereignty.” Jennings: “Why? We do it all the time. Who’s going to stop us?” He admitted America breaks the law constantly—and then dared the world to do something about it. That’s not journalism. That’s fascism on live TV.

what federal agents did to a father of three Marines while he was cutting grass in Orange County on Sunday has happened in some form daily — and deliberately — all over Los Angeles for 18 days.

Damn—the Senate parliamentarian has ruled that a LOT of the reconciliation bill requires 60 votes to pass, including a massive assault on federal regulations and several heinous attacks on civil service protections. This effectively guts a big chunk of the bill. www.budget.senate.gov/ranking-memb...

DEAN: Do you have any concerns about your conflicts of interest and the president's? BONDI: What I would be concerned about in Pennsylvania is all the child sex cases DEAN: Did you hear my question?

Absofuckinglutely

They were supposed to be deporting “gang members” and “criminals.” So far, they have kidnapped people working their day jobs and folks lawfully showing up for their immigration court appearances… It was always a lie.

This news didn't even come to my feed.

Vance: I empathize with Americans who are exhausted after 25 years of foreign entanglements in the Middle East. I understand the concern, but the difference is that back then we had dumb presidents

Today—after the war was supposed to be over, due to the alleged destruction of Iran’s nuclear program—Israel has bombed Shahid Beheshti University (a war crime) and a landmark in Tehran’s Palestine Square (a war crime) and launched the worst bombing of Tehran yet. Israel is out of fucking control.

Remember: Everything for him is about getting face time on TV looking tough. Reality and consequences don’t matter.

"Absolutely unprovoked aggression against Iran has no bases, grounds, or justification whatsoever" - Putin The same guy who justified invading Ukraine with biolabs and battle mosquitoes. Also helped build nukes for North Korea, and was well on his way to doing it for Iran.

Some thoughts on the current situation with Iran. Screenshot from the bad place.

The number of times I've thought about this exchange in the past week.

Truer words...

"Do you want America to be at war with Iran?" No: 85% Yes: 5% YouGov / June 22, 2025

The American people were lied to about Vietnam, with tragic consequences. The American people were lied to about Iraq, with tragic consequences. The American people are being lied to again today. We cannot allow history to repeat itself.

What a fucking clown show.

As we mentioned when we attended the hearing, government witnesses almost all had something to gain… and their story that Kilmar took his family (3 kids, 2 with autism) on almost all his alleged cross-country smuggling trips — “3-4x weekly” — is preposterous The judge agreed👇🏽

Confirmation they did not destroy the uranium stockpiles. Gift link. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/22/u...

“family members identified the victim as Narciso Barranco, a father to three sons who are all U.S. Marines” ktla.com/news/local-n...

Really Bad News 6/20

ICE striking cars and pulling guns on unarmed.

Schiff: "The failure to brief Dem lawmakers, the making this just another partisan exercise by the administration when it comes to something as serious as the decision to potentially engage in warfare, it means that you're not gonna have the whole country bought into this, which is a real problem"

An official statement was posted on the Yemeni army’s account on X: "Yemen will officially enter the war. Keep your ships away from our territorial waters."

I'm grateful our pilots are safely out of Iran – and I thank them for their bravery. But in the absence of evidence that Iran was imminently breaking out to build a bomb, and without congressional approval, this operation should have never been ordered.

Oh @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov you guys are so old and so out of touch. We are living in the 30s again, don't be a Chamberlain. History will not forgive.

bsky.app/profile/impl... This is exactly what I meant.

LET THIS SINK IN: The U.S. just bombed Iran. Cities are on high alert. And Trump put a 22-year-old ex-gardener and grocery clerk—Thomas C. Fugate—in charge of domestic terror prevention. He graduated last year. This is who’s supposed to keep us safe. www.msn.com/en-us/news/u...

Not “ICE” changing license plates in a back lot. They wouldn’t do that, would they? Maybe the authorities should look into this.

The racism is off the charts with this regime.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?

Informing only Republicans before bombing Iran isn’t a “mistake.” It’s a federal violation. 50 U.S.C. § 3093 requires bipartisan notification—And Trump knew exactly what he was doing when he broke that law. Charge him. Now.

What am I worried about? -Safety of 30k US troops in the Middle East -cybersecurity (since CISA was recently gutted) & homeland security (as HLS focused on immigration) -Economic strength (oil prices and tariffs) -Allied assistance (we’ll need that now) -Domestic intell (leadership at FBI/DNI)

youtu.be/8Y4b9s2cqUE?... Please DO NOT LET OPIE DIE!! Pls repost the fuck out of him! NY NJ CT RI VT ME NH NE VA PA DE DC MD Someone FOSTER HIM PLS!! He is so sweet! REPOST! His life is in our hands! 🙌

Bernie Sanders calls the bombing of Iran unconstitutional and the crowd breaks out into “no more war”.

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