Libs sure loved masks when it came to mitigating a world-stopping respiratory virus. But now that armed agents of the state are using them to harass innocent people with impunity, suddenly masks are bad! Make up your mind, libs!

And millions of people accept this as normal and not a sign of a significantly disordered personality.

We are all nostalgic for the somewhat pre-nuclear age of 2003

Not for nothing but if Biden had done this it would be a 2 week story.

The same people who can’t stop talking about Biden’s health won’t ask Trump why this keeps happening.

This

Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium. ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

The President isn’t indecisive. He’s laser-focused on his only two options: Decide in two weeks or in 90 days. And he’s very decisive about which delay to pick.

Happy Juneteenth

He never tells us what the plan is on anything because there is no plan. But two things we know for sure: 1. Whatever happens that is good news will always be a result of the master plan we were not told about. 2. Whatever happens that is bad news will be Biden’s fault.

Trump been holed up in the White House all week and the best he could come up with on Iran is "I'll let you know in two weeks-ish." To call it theater of the absurd is too kind.

So he can't pump and dump with the tariffs anymore because people finally caught on so now he has to pretend to start a war instead

This is brutal. India says Trump is lying about a trade deal and says he also lied about brokering a peace deal between India and Pakistan. We are a joke around the world. bsky.app/profile/meid...

🤨

BARTIROMO: How would you like to see the US respond to Iran? JONI ERNST: Well, this will be entirely up to the president ... whatever that call is that is made by President Donald Trump, I will be supportive of

We really need to elect Senators who want to be Senators.

If you allow yourselves to be used as a prop you don't get to go coy when called upon. You knew what he was and you could've said no. You didn't. So this is who you are, Juventus. We see you.

Half the Republicans for war are telling me it’s necessary because Iran might get nukes soon, which they’ve been saying for 30 years, while the other half say we have to go to war to help Israel or God will condemn us to Hell.

there is no difference between this and what I heard from the drunk guy at the bar last night

Trump’s Golden Age: Wars raging everywhere, massive debt, civil strife and division, economy in the toilet. bsky.app/profile/meid...

Donald Trump’s MAGA Republican Party. Can’t pass a budget, but they are laser-focused on things that will make your life better.

It took Netanyahu 29 years, but he finally found an American president who was itching to go to war with him against Iran.

Prayers for an “allergic reaction.” But mockery and hateful conspiracies for murder victims who aren’t in your tribe. With no apology or remorse. Fake Christian, small man.

Not an original point but worth saying again - there is not a single element in this picture that identifies any of these folks as law enforcement agents. No badges, no uniforms, no vests. Out of context it just looks like a bunch of random guys are kidnapping a mayoral candidate.

There’s always a tweet.

Try to imagine how the Iraq War would have gone differently if, instead of producing evidence that Iraq was stockpiling WMDs, the intelligence community had produced evidence it wasn’t, and Bush was like “Screw it we’re going to war anyway.” (It wouldn’t have happened and he’d maybe be impeached)

Isn't he, you know, selling telephones?

sure, the world is going up in flames, there's unrest in the streets, and America has become a global punchline, but at least Trump voters made the handful of trans athletes in the country feel extra bad

“We” are fighting a foreign war with zero consultation with or authorization from Congress, and no address to the nation other than Truth Social posts.

Wow, this was satisfying. Let us all live vicariously through this caller who reads Jake Tapper the riot act.

Again: Watergate was a crime. WMD was a lie & disastrous policy failure. We still haven’t heard <a single> detail of a single crime or policy/governance failure happening, but yet he keeps conflating “Biden was old & senile” with the crimes & policy/governance failures of past presidents. It’s ugly.

I just love all this peace around the world and no new wars that Trump promised during the campaign. The Golden Age.

Markwayne is overcompensating for something

Who wouldn’t want to buy a Trump Phone? When I think of someone who is going to develop the highest quality tech device with reliable service and a dependable warranty, at the best possible price, made in the USA, the first guy I think of is Donald Trump.

Every time this clown leaves the country he embarrasses us on the world stage.

My god. Russia's Foreign Minister doesn't advocate on behalf of Putin as hard as Trump does.

Trump sounds old, feeble, and not in control of his faculties. And it is obvious to the rest of the world.

This is the politicization of law enforcement. It's not about "immigration," it's about demonizing cities and winning elections

This 100%. Trump bares responsibility for the political violence in our country.

I always love when Trump blurts something out loud that somebody told him, almost assuredly, to be used as subtext. But not President Big Brain. Gotta attack the big cities. Why? Because Democrats. Also you’re kidding yourself if you think this regime leaves power willingly in 2028. Good luck to us.

No one humiliates Trump better than Trump.

This is taking me back to the days when they first started talking about WMDs in Iraq.

i'm surprised by how low energy and farcical that whole military parade situation was. I was expecting Moscow 1945 and we got Spirit Halloween instead.

This is, for me, where the Nazi/fascist parallels work best. ‘Good’ people did nothing as the awfulness escalated because they were justifiably terrified of getting their heads kicked in or killed. It’s about comparing similar points in the process as opposed to comparing end days with early ones.

Rule of thumb: if there’s more people in the parade than there are people watching the parade, it’s not a successful parade.

Huge crowds. Huge. Only fake news says otherwise.

KARE 11 TV in the Twin Cities reports that Vance Boelter's best friend says Boelter voted for Trump and is "a strong supporter"

If Cuomo wins the mayorship, he will run for president - we have to stop him in his tracks. (And phew, @aoc.bsky.social connecting stopping Cuomo to ending the gerontocracy is extremely my shit.)

“A deranged maniac impersonated a police officer and killed lawmakers but if you’re an immigrant be sure you immediately comply with plain clothes people who won’t identify themselves telling you to get in a van”, what a fuckin country

The contrasting images of a DC ghost town/military parade and 1800 American cities and towns with well-attended protests is going to drive Trump batty.
