Oliver North on Fox News complaining that Iran has missiles is... I mean, do they even know who the fuck he is and what he did? He sold Iran missiles!

Amazing. NYT has more confirmation that Trump's decision to bomb Iran was motivated in large part by the way the Israeli strikes were "playing" on Fox News, which drove him to want credit for it

Wow. Fourth batch of Byrd droppings is out - Dem staff absolutely dominated the HSGAC fight We won on reorg & bonuses for cost cutters ofc, but also on at-will, filing fees, and USPS green vehicles & infrastructure sales Seriously, major praise to the D staff www.budget.senate.gov/ranking-memb...

Reupping this thread bc 1) it's clear the discomfort by Trump supporters is real and 2) there's absolutely no reason not to exacerbate that discomfort. Why not do a campaign demanding both Barron Trump and Charlie Kirk enlist?

This is kind of false claim that leads people who MIGHT NOT be expected to know what happened when Schumer allowed continuing resolution to come for a vote (but voted against it), typical of disinfo of Schumer whiners. Trump ALWAYS would have had ability to pick which parts of govt to shut down.

DHS CONTRACTORS FOR KIDNAPPING: These job adverts confirm that DHS-ICE is hiring people off the streets with as little as 2 years military service. Plus CBP is hiring former War on Terror analysts to hunt Americans and migrants alike. Straight up Secret Police shit. These were on LinkedIn.

This is an intentional outcome from the decisions made by Elon Musk, Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, and the collective supporters of the Trump Administration.

What a dumbass

Trump's bombing of Iran serves no larger political or security purpose. He just didn't want to look like a loser as he was goaded by the war criminal Netanyahu. Canada must separate ourselves from the reckless violence of the gangster regime in Washington.

For a party who has always stood on a platform of less government/don't tread on me, they sure do want to be involved in everyone's business.

This is the direct result of nobody fuckin stopping him They let him blatantly know that he's above the law and he's going to continue to pull monstrous shit like this until someone stops him

Trump ran on no wars and the mass deportation of dangerous criminals. Instead, he’s bombing Iran and kidnapping street vendors. Any mandate this man claims to have is based on a lie.

Isn’t there an island somewhere for all the extreme right-wing fundamentalist Christians, Jews & Muslims who want to kill each other? Bc the moderate, liberal & sane Christians, Jews & Muslims aren’t the ones causing all this; & it’s not the atheists/agnostics either. Willing to start the gofundme

Trump bombing Iran was illegal and unjustified. I ran for Congress to make sure our leaders consider the true costs of war. And I will be in the Senate, standing on my titanium legs, demanding answers from Trump. My statement:

I had to look up number 8 WHATTT nypost.com/2024/11/25/u...

Is he sleeping in the bunker tonight?

In a lengthy exchange, with ICE Deputy Field Director Bill Joyce, Reps Nadler and Goldman are denied the ability to visit the 10th floor. Joyce says it's not a detention facility it's just a place ppl are housed for several days w/out beds.

This is sick.

The day before Kristi Noem's goons premeditated an arrest of Brad Lander, NYC amended its lawsuit against Noem, catching them lying to explain their theft of $80M. I'd say that's just a coinkydink...But Ras Baraka is suing Noem too. www.emptywheel.net/2025/06/18/r...

The history of student loan debt shows how noble programs and soaring tuition have often left too many students underwater. Fortunately, there are ways to fix the problem. washingtonmonthly.com/2025/06/18/s...

This isn't surprising. It doesn't bode well for us. www.newsweek.com/psychology-d...

It is objectively wild but also completely and totally expected and incredibly unsurprising that Trump’s primary response publicly and behind the scenes to the Minnesota political violence and killing has been for days just to effusively trash talk governor Walz www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Trump Family’s New Business Partner Is India’s Richest Man Trump's latest financial disclosure report included $10 million “development fee” from Reliance 4IR Realty Development, a unit of company controlled by Mukesh Ambani, licensing the Trump name in Mumbai www.wsj.com/politics/ele...

I wrote about how the 2020 protests hurt Trump politically. I also wrote about how counternarratives about left-wing violence are just spin — and wildly at odds with the reality of extremist violence. Gift link: wapo.st/3SOEv6e

Speaking as someone who hurt a congressman's feelings, Mike Lee isn't sorry.

The corruption is massive. It's being done in broad daylight.

This is #NotADragQueen and #NotTrans. This is an avowedly cis-het, white, Republican, Christian man. What a peculiar pattern this is where the people harming children are accusing folks who haven't of doing so. Weird projection. Anyway, #GOP = Gang of Pedophiles at this point.

This is well stated. Mike Lee will forever be associated in my mind with his unbelievably cruel and stupid tweets about the Hortman assassination. He is a disgrace to the Senate and Utah.

Over the past 10 yrs, 75% of political shootings in US have been by right wingers, 19% by Muslims, 6% by leftists. & another murderer in the name of Christianity. So why r the media talking about dialing it down on both sides? And the people most responsible r those screaming against gun control. 🤪

It's not just Whole Foods dealing with empty shelves after the cyber attack that took down a major food distributor. Here's the yogurt section of my grocery store, but other areas of the store look similarly bleak. If this happened under Biden, it would be on CNN 24/7. Barely an update under Trump.

WSJ Memory Holes Trump's Near-Assassination of His Vice President www.emptywheel.net/2025/06/16/w...

Seeing much of the media describe Vance Boelter as “deeply religious” without pointing out that he belongs to a fanatical Christian supremacist sect that teaches the US is literally possessed by demons.
