I don’t think we’ve heard from Tulsi Gabbard yet today. I guess she must be busy tying herself up in knots.

Is it too late to give Sacha Baron Cohen an Oscar for this? Not a damn lie told. 🇺🇸

There'll never be a better mantra for the Trump regime "Forget About Intelligence"

🚨 TRUMP ENDORSES REGIME CHANGE IN IRAN, CALLS TO 'MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN'

The only, and I mean only, thing I like about Trump is how regularly he undercuts his lickspittle underlings’ public statements of policy, forcing them to do rhetorical cartwheels until his whims change again.

Rubio on CBS: "This wasn't a regime change move." Vance on ABC: "Well, first of all, we don't want to achieve regime change." Vance on NBC: "our view has been very clear that we don't want a regime change." Trump, not waiting even 24 hours to undercut and humiliate them:

So — morning after sounds like Trump’s “obliterated” claim has been obliterated.

Or maybe Trump announcing a Three Stooges reboot …

In Pasadena, protesters ran ICE out of a hotel. The hotel insisted ICE leave. Protesters slashed tires of many of the vehicles and local tow companies refused to assist. /

Trump Sends Barron to Podiatrist

Reading faces JD Vance is distressed. Marco Rubio is all in. Kegsworth is a deer in the headlights. Trump is a malignant narcissist reveling in his Big Boy moment. Fuck them all.

AOC: “grounds for impeachment” Jeffries: “Trump needs to explain”

Trump: "And, most importantly, I want to thank the great American patriots who flew those magnificent machines tonight ... "

Marco Rubio: “The US was not involved in tonight’s … uh, what’s that? … oh, sorry boss, sorry … The US led tonight’s magnificent strike on Iran …

Hakeem Jeffries says “the risk of war has now dramatically increased” How is this not already war???

Meanwhile, Tulsi Gabbard is busy rewriting and post-dating intelligence reports to give Supreme Leader the justifications he needs …

Hegseth: “I’ll drink to that!”

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

BOMBS in all caps like it’s all some fucking cartoon …

the takeaway from this is that, for all practical purposes, stephen miller is the acting president of the united states. trump is just play-acting as the boss, as he did on the Apprentice. (gift link) www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 98 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo (or video) of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

Compton, CA: A masked, heavily-armed man wearing body armor jumped out of a SUV today to kidnap a local resident. He forgot to put the vehicle in park, causing it to roll down the street damaging other cars. He jumped in the vehicle (which had no platess) and drove off without identifying himself.

Looks like the war planning is getting serious … but, seriously, we’re all being held hostage by idiots ..,

Brought to you by the same folks who claimed during Covid that wearing a mask would keep them from breathing…

When you’re just grabbing brown people

He was detained outside church. “He was in chains at his feet,” Alondra Sotelo-Garcia told a local news outlet about seeing her father arrested. “Shoelaces were taken off, his belt was off, he didn’t have his ring, he didn’t have his watch. Everything was taken from him.”

Start to think Musk buys his parts for SpaceX from Acme …

L.A. Taco has confirmed with the family of 20yr old Adrian Andrew Martinez, who was taken by ICE while working at Walmart in Pico Rivera, is a US citizen who was speaking up for his coworker that was detained. ~ @eltragon.bsky.social

Very phallic!

Manipulative neocons exploited Trump’s jealous hatred of Obama to convince him to rip up the JCPOA, precisely so we’d arrive at the crossroads we’ve reached today. He’s giving them what they used him for, because he’s exactly the mark they thought he was. www.offmessage.net/p/18-thought...

Hooded monsters!

Who are we surrendering to?

Sunday: "The U.S. had nothing to do with the attack on Iran." truthsocial.com/@realDonaldT... Today: "We now have complete and total control of the skies over Iran ... Nobody does it better than the good ol’ USA." truthsocial.com/@realDonaldT... He's not a hawk. He's not a dove. He's just a moron.

Masked federal agents just illegally arrested New York City’s elected Comptroller. Outrageous. The Trump Administration went after Brad Lander for asking this simple question: “Do you have a warrant?” By asking this question, Brad was standing up for the basic rights of all Americans.

it is genuinely insane that we have just kind of acclimated to the fact that we have masked secret police now

The eye roll speaks volumes 👀

Trump to the G7: 🎶 Hello, I must be going I cannot stay, I came to say, "I must be going" I'm glad I came but just the same I must be going, la-la!🎶

“I find it unconscionable that someone could step up to serve, voluntarily, in our military and be willing to sacrifice their life for our country only to have their families torn apart.” This article first appeared @thewarhorsenews.bsky.social

Providing just the sort of modern-day complication that a neo-Rom-com needs …

Proof that Stephen Miller, the architect of mass deportation, dictates policy and gives orders to Trump …

The President does not have the authority to make this decision. There is no imminent threat to America from Iran. He cannot take this action without congressional authorization. I will not vote to give him that authority, and I likely represent the majority of Congress.
