"Answer the question, Mr. Vought ... I don't want to hear about the Biden administration. You're here on behalf of the Trump administration" -- Jon Ossoff was not putting up with Russ Vought's bullshit

Two things, 1984 Barbie: 1. How can something be top-secret if it is fiction? Fiction only has power when it is released. 2. If you "totally obliterate" a site where the targets of your bombs had already been moved, the only things you accomplished was wasting those pilots' time and our money.

Federal and local law enforcement wearing masks is just plain unamerican. It’s a cowards move, and shows the fact that the kinds of deportations happening and the methods are, shameful and unpopular. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/why-are-fe...

I think if we just give Trump a medal or a trophy for the Iran bombing he might be able to move on. Seems like the easiest solution.

It’s interesting that Trump said Putin called him to mediate the war in Iran since if you were Putin this is exact outcome you would want: Iran keeps nuclear program. No deal on denuclearization. Iran oil sales to China approved by USA. Iran keeps supplying drones to Russia.

Schiff asks if Bove told DoJ lawyers "the planes need to take off no matter what" and Bove obfuscates again saying he doesn't recall. Bove knows that an handful of people can testify to the contrary, so Bove is playing games with Schiff.

Schiff asks if there are notes over the meeting about defying court orders, whether Bove will provide them to the committee, and Bove says he will defer to trump and the DoJ on whether he can. He KNOWS he's caught. Same with the notes from the Eric Adams case. Schiff is doing really well here.

Ted Cruz just said Mr. Abrego has been charged with Human Trafficking. Cruz proclaims "I read every word of that indictment!" Apparently not, because Abrego was not charged with human trafficking. I hope this comes up in a motion to dismiss the charges.

"We're all going to die." "They'll get over it." If Democrats don't use these glib Republican dismissals of Americans' concerns to Medicaid cuts in Midterm ads, they will deserve to lose.

Notice what the administration is doing by trying to portray anyone questioning the success of these strikes as anti-military. It’s a deflection tactic. The mission was perfectly executed, we just don’t yet know if it was successful, and that’s OK - that’s what the IC is for.

Mike Johnson’s “The bill does not increase the deficit” is akin to Donald Trump’s “The sites in Iran were completely obliterated.” Shameless lying to pretend things are better than they know they are. It would be like FDR saying, “Depression? WHAT Depression?” or JFK saying, "There's no Vietnam."

My own observation is that Trump’s chances of winning the Nobel Peace Prize decreased somewhat when he rolled into office threatening to invade Greenland, annex Canada, extort Ukraine, and seize the Panama Canal.

The reason why the Trump admin is so obsessed with leaks from their own officials is because this entire admin is a house cards built on a foundation of lies. Truth is their kryptonite, so they have to intimidate and persecute those who tell it to try and hide it from the people.

The US military strikes on three of Iran’s nuclear facilities did NOT destroy the core components of the country’s nuclear program and likely only set it back by months. That’s according to an early intelligence assessment produced by the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Pentagon’s intelligence arm.
