Our air base in Qatar is under Iranian attack, but don’t worry because we have a former reality tv game show host criminal conman with the impulse control of a hangry toddler for a president and a day drinking weekend tv “news” pundit for a Secretary of Defense, so this is fine. Everything is fine.

Qatar official statement: "Qatar’s air defenses successfully thwarted the attack and intercepted the Iranian missiles." "The base had been evacuated earlier ... given the tensions in the region." "We confirm that no injuries or human casualties resulted from the attack."

Stephen Miller is a racist and fascist eager to take the administration down a dark path of mass deportations without due process. He's Trump's playbook author feeding on hate and stoking fear against working Americans.

All day today I have noticed one important thing: In huge cities with huge protest crowds all over this entire country from Alaska to Florida, the only violence was in the only city with police, ICE, national guard, and marines there to keep the peace. Do you think there is a correlation? ⭐

A Federal judge says he could release Mahmoud Khalil as soon as this week. And he damn well better do so. Which just goes to show you that we are living in a fascist regime of idiots with all of their heads up the felon’s fat ass.

Here is Senator Alex Padilla's entire full statement after being detained by Donald Trump and Kristi Noem's Department of Homeland Security. Like he said, if they're doing this to a sitting Senator, imagine what they're doing to other people. Unconscionable.

Reports and video show flash-bangs thrown into piles of debris just before a car caught fire, strongly suggesting it was law enforcement, not protesters, who sparked it. More details are coming. Don’t let them control the narrative. Thank you to everyone sharing footage, always record everything.

What a shocking tragedy. Jonathan Joss was a talented and dynamic actor who touched so many lives. My prayers are with his family and friends during this heartbreaking time. This was a homophobic attack and this has no place in America. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Under the Trump Administration, intelligence is being politicized and bent to the will of President Trump. That is dangerous because it intimidates intelligence analysts, undercuts the integrity of their work, and undermines our national security. castro.house.gov/media-center...

If Trump's "big, beautiful" reconciliation bill goes through, 13.7 million people will lose their health insurance & even more will become underinsured. Make no mistake, thousands of low-income & working class Americans will die unnecessarily if it passes. We must not allow it.

I just really need everybody to understand that everything that’s happening in and to the global economy now (and all the businesses and people in it) is the entirely predictable result of the intentional decisions of one guy who doesn’t understand how the global economy works.

100 men vs. 1 gorilla? How about the working class against the oligarchy? The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 50 years has shifted $80 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%. This is the real fight we need to be talking about.

There is no aborted fetus debris in the MMR vaccine, or in any vaccine at all. It is worth noting that the Catholic Church, one of the most staunch anti-abortion organizations in the world, has a formal policy that encourages all vaccinations.

Let's not delude ourselves into thinking getting rid of Hegseth will make this shitshow any better. It's like taking away your senile grandpa's pants; it's not gonna stop him from wandering into the street!

Serious question for the legal scholars among us: 1. It's my understanding that El Salvador signed on to the Rome Statute in 2015. 2. And when a citizen of a non-member country (U.S.) commits crimes against humanity on the territory of an ICC member country, the ICC can bring charges. [1/2]
