To be clear, Netanyahu isn’t a leader, he’s a criminal as well as the dictator of Israel and he’s been waiting decades for a useful idiot like the orange felon to help him with his plans.

States run elections. Remember that.

i want to thank the cuomo endorsers for making it clear who needs to be purged from leadership

countdown to "the left's anti war rhetoric is going to cost us the midterms"

We KNOW things

This week, the Supreme Court is set to issue opinions in the 10 remaining cases it heard this term, including: ⚖️Birthright Citizenship/Nationwide Injunctions. ⚖️Louisiana Redistricting. I founded Democracy Docket in 2020 to keep you informed. Sign-up now for free. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

They are using Mexican license plates to try and fool people.

Thank you, Justin Trudeau, for not allowing them access to our data system or sharing information with that corrupt criminal government! They keep trying to make us out to be the bad guys, why?

Iranians are good folks with a fucked-up government. I can relate.

This aged well didn't it Charlie?

MAGA is literally praising drunkard rapist Pete Hegseth for not leaking war plans this time. Dumbest cult in world history.

Joe Biden made him spell his name wrong.

Regardless of the outcome of primary, I think it’s a really bad sign for the Democratic Party that Cuomo is even remotely competitive in this race.

Politicians hide themselves away. They only started the war. Why should they go out to fight? They leave that role to the poor. Time will tell on their power minds. Making war just for fun, Treating people just like pawns in chess, Wait 'till their judgment day comes... - Ozzy Osbourne, "War Pigs"

THREAD. After a tough few months (involving my ex-publisher Unbound ceasing to pay their authors, then disintegrating) I am enormously relieved to reveal Joe McLaren's fantastic cover for my 3rd novel. The book will be published on September 11th. I believe it's the best thing I've ever written.

We have gone from the margin of error to the margin of effort. On the day before the election, we stand on the verge of toppling a political dynasty and winning a city we can afford. But we can only do it with you. zohranfornyc.com/gotv

I keep watching these videos of La Migra kidnapping and assaulting people and thinking about why Palestinian kids throw rocks at IDF

Trump’s reckless Iran strikes could backfire spectacularly www.publicnotice.co/p/trump-iran...

Forget about intelligence? Concentrate on stupidity and ignorance and insanity. Lead with losers. Lovely.

>send all of your surrogates out to the morning shows to ensure everyone that the war aim of the United States isn't regime change in Iran >immediately post that you think there should be a regime change I love strategic crisis communications in the 21st century.

Congress didn’t just lose its power it gave it away. On war, trade, and policy, lawmakers have willingly let the executive branch rule unchecked.

Watch this, please

I call this dish “I’m not cooking so scrounge a cheese plate from whatever we have”

We now live in a world of asymmetrical warfare. Threat of cyber warfare, extremism, drone attacks & propaganda increased exponentially the moment the US bombed Iran. youtu.be/UMCkzFpJDYU

Please explain why it would be a bad thing to just shoot these guys on sight.

I need to hear less about the logistics and “impressiveness” of bombing Iran and more about why we bombed a country over nuclear weapons when they don’t have a nuclear weapon. I’m old enough to remember WMDs and Iraq. So are many of the reporters on tv. Look beyond the “battle damage assessment.”🙄

For those still wondering what America under an authoritarian regime would be like, you’re living in it. We have no functioning government. No Congress. No Judicial system. No real opposition party. Just one Russian connected con man with dementia, & a bunch of Russian assets.

🚨 Breaking: I have reports of something but no links to articles about it, nor have I vetted the information before posting. I’m still going to say it’s breaking because I need the dopamine hit and satisfaction from people reposting.

I'm not enjoying the reboot of the "Unprovoked War in the Middle East" reality TV show. It's just as pointless, but the actors are even stupider. And, frankly, I didn't think that would be possible.

My monster SOMEONE YOU CAN BUILD A NEST IN just won the Locus Award for Best First Novel! Ahhhh thanks to all the wonderful readers who have shown love for my little creature! (Here you can see me trying to collect the scraps of my blown mind.)

Fuel prices skyrocket overnight. Enjoy MAGA motherfuckers.
