We really need some laws to make sure that if you’re wearing glasses that record video everyone knows it. Legally mandate that if you’re wearing smart glasses you also have to wear a cap with a propeller on it

No, they haven’t always been like this. I’ve always hated the GOP, literally my entire adult life, but the “we can’t wait to kill you stuff” and the horror-movie memes are actually new

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...

🚨 There’s a lot of horrific news out of Washington right now—but you might have missed this: Senate Republicans just introduced a plan to sell off 120 million acres of our public lands. Let me break down what’s in the bill and why it’s a full-scale land grab. 🧵

political press is doing a real disservice by basically not reporting the nuances of public opinion on deportations, and creating the appearance that most americans support the stephen miller-style gestapo tactics

I count 49 news headlines on the NYT mobile app home page right now, not including opinion, sports or cooking. None of them are about the massive protests yesterday.

Had to scroll down for over a minute to “Most Shared” where a rundown of the protests is #1. But boy you wouldn’t know it! Like 20 articles about Amy Coney Barrett though

This is serious, rigorous analysis and it should change the way the media has been covering these protests. These were, in the aggregate, massive.

Remarkable. MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful." Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd. Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

WATCH: “I WAS AN INTERPRETER IN AFGHANISTAN FOR 3 YEARS.” ICE grabs a man whose name they don’t even know at his immigration hearing, shackles him, expedites his removal. Q: Why would anyone ever help our military again? — Trump is endangering and weakening our military.

Trump said he wanted a deal with Iran. I guess he couldn’t convince his good friend Netanyahu. No respect. Looks weak.

Also cannot be emphasized enough: Barack Obama successfully negotiated the shutdown of Iran's nuclear program. It exists today because Trump deliberately tore up that agreement. The deaths happening right now can be laid at his door.

Israel aggressively bombing Iran—unlike two incidents of strikes in 2024, which followed Iranian missiles launches against Israel—is in part another consequence of a weak, chaotic US president. Worth noting that this didn't happen under Biden, Obama, or Bush, despite Israel talking about it a lot.

Trump’s go-to line about every foreign policy crisis and war - from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, to October 7th, to the Israel’s devastation of Gaza - was “It would never have happened if I was president.” Welp.

Netanyahu is really misplaying this if he thinks Trump will back him. All the Ayatollah needs to do is find a nice yacht for Trump and we are going to be occupying Tel Aviv

The live blurbing format that every newspaper resorts to with any kind of breaking event these days is already fundamentally toxic to journalism, imo. But even by the standards of that slovenly, indifferently-edited-if-edited-at-all form, one can do far better than this.

Once again, DHS outright LIES to the American public, falsely claiming that people who entered the country LEGALLY are "illegal aliens." BY DEFINITION someone approved to fly here by the US government and who is authorized to enter and work legally is not an "illegal alien." It's a total lie.

Cops are shooting impact munitions madly. They're shooting at people who are simply moving along on sidewalks and leaving the area as they were ordered to do. No one in this video is throwing anything at police. Mounted cops are coming up behind people and hitting them with extra long riot batons.

Feels kinda important to point out that if non-citizens are required to carry proof of legal status, then citizens do too by default. This is absolutely insane.

if a Dem president was getting these poll numbers they'd be putting "lame duck" next to his name in every mention and speculating about legislators switching parties to avoid a wipeout in the midterms. But they like Trump and want to help him so instead lie and say his actions are popular

ICE pretended to arrest a 21 yo in order to force her to call her undocumented mother to come leave the house (where she was safe from ICE arrest) to care for her baby. When the mother came, she was abducted and the daughter was suddenly of no interest to ICE. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Candidly, as a civ-mil watcher, this scene at Bragg is freaking me out more than anything else that's happened so far. Just an absolute collapse of professional military norms.

If any Democratic president used a military audience as partisan prop, Republicans would melt down. The press would melt down. It was considered unthinkable until Trump showed R's and the media that oligarchic rule was within their reach.
