Chris Hayes just used this graphic, showing Iran’s nuclear activity was small, then non-existent under the Obama deal, & immediately exploded after Trump unilaterally broke the deal. 🚩They were complying. Obama returned their own impounded money back and they felt seen.🚩 🧨Trump & Bibi blew it up.

It's not just Vance - the sense of unearned entitlement is a defining feature of this administration. People who know their careers are built on a grift respond by self-righteously demanding deference and respect. "Did you even say thank you?"

Walz: An hour by hour day by day basis, the President has chosen, chosen to throw our economy into turmoil. We are talking about a guy that slapped a 10% tariff on an island populated only by penguins. It would be funny as hell if it wasn't true and stupid.

“It's hypocrisy to call yourself a Christian and chase away a refugee or someone seeking help, someone who is hungry or thirsty, toss out someone who is in need of my help. If I say I am Christian, but do these things, I'm a hypocrite." -Pope Francis

Normally if someone tries to kill a governor, the president is briefed, calls the governor, and issues a statement committing resources to bringing perps to justice. It’s not just that we don’t expect Trump to be kind—we have to wonder if he’ll allow a real investigation at all.

1) Fox News is for real not showing stock-market ticker during this week's collapse. 2) Its economic news is "strong jobs report." 3) Every time I've checked in today, the coverage has been "illegal immigrants committing new crimes." This is state propaganda, on a par with North Korea or PRC.

Mike Waltz has now decided to roll out the story that Jeffrey Goldberg somehow hacked his way into their Signal chat. Just admitting a mistake and apologizing seems like a lot less work than lying and peddling a half dozen different conspiracies.

Why is it that, for years, it was “impossible” to investigate and prosecute far-right mass shooters as “domestic terrorists” while these days the FBI investigates checks notes people who are mean to the world’s richest man’s car dealerships, as domestic terrorists? www.wired.com/story/fbi-te...

Horrific: One of the USAID programs Trump just terminated was set to deliver lifesaving treatment to hundreds of thousands of starving kids abroad. Much of it is now sitting in a Georgia warehouse. Rubio's promise to preserve urgent assistance was a lie. New piece: newrepublic.com/article/1921...
