.@PabloReports: What do you make of the White House blaming the police for the violence on January 6th? McGovern: That’s offensive. What kind of sick human being would say that? I was here that day.

Whenever I see this picture, my eyes well up. Eugene Goodman, Capitol police officer, diverted a crowd of bloodthirsty rioters in the Capitol during the bloody J6 insurrection from the US Senate chambers. He is a great American hero. 🇺🇸 #ProudBlue #Pinks #EugeneGoodman #Capitol

'Batsh*t crazy': Democratic representatives sound off on the White House publishing a website about January 6 that calls the insurrectionists “patriots” and blames officers for the violence. @pabloreports.bsky.social reports.

OK 👍....So fuck Hilton.

2 are still recovering while 5 have returned to duty. A U.S. official said the injuries were gunshot wounds and shrapnel injuries.

BREAKING: Tammy Duckworth, who has the most significant combat record of any current U.S. senator, just lashed out at Trump on Venezuela: “Maybe Trump dodged the draft so many times he’s incapable of understanding the lessons from past conflicts built on lies.”

Trump and Hegseth are trying to intimidate me into silence. After 25 years in the Navy, I can tell you — that's not going to work. This is about defending everyone's First Amendment rights.

Incredible podcast on what killed the American Dream, esp. for white men who created the MAGA crisis. A big contributing factor was the Reagan Revolution "greed is good" defunding schools, worsening education quality--a major factor of social mobility www.economist.com/podcasts/202...

Reformed January 6th participant (who refused a pardon): “You can't gaslight me. I was there. I saw the officers being pepper sprayed. I watched one of them fall down and hit his head and his back. So don't be telling me it wasn't violent.”

Trump hates us Veterans!!

The U.S. childhood vaccine schedule is not a list doctors randomly decided on. It evolved over decades in response to deadly outbreaks, hard lessons and rigorous research. Rolling it back, says @jakescottMD.bsky.social, risks relearning those lessons the hard way. buff.ly/Y6H0LZj #VaccinesWork 🩺🧪

When the war-gamed this out last Trump regime, the end result was widespread bloodshed.

I'm willing to bet this is just a few players who will profit from a warring world.

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com "Even if the Trump administration somehow manages to muddle through in Venezuela, we seem to be returning to the pre-World War I era of strongmen and spheres of influence," Ben Rhodes writes. "Whether we choose to ignore it or not, history shows us where that leads."

You had to see this coming with the misogynists in charge. "Pentagon will begin review of ‘effectiveness’ of women in ground combat positions" on SmartNews: l.smartnews.com/p-6UWkmpGg/r...

5 years after the Jan. 6th insurrection, Trump got away with inciting violence, and pardoned those who carried it out. His disdain for the rule of law continues. We deserve a country where threats to democracy & political violence aren't normalized. We demand accountability.

He should have been brought up for treason, not fucking re-elected. #NeverForget #Jan6th

Captain Mark Kelly earned his rank. Now his decades of service are being attacked by a drunk and a draft dodger. All because he reminded our military to stay true to their oath, his right as both a veteran and an American.

I’m starting to think maybe they need to get rid of that damn peace prize. Seems like it causes more harm than it’s worth. We got peace prize recipients offering to trade it to imperialist regime changers who murdered her countrymen in exchange for political power.

If you are MAGA and cheering on Trump’s lawless aggression and imperialism, your children will be cannon fodder for the new MAGA empire. Kiss them goodbye, or like your Orange KKKalligula, give them another kick in the ass. Source: Responsible Statecraft responsiblestatecraft.org/selective-se...

If the American position is that the Maduro regime was illegitimate (which it was), and corrupt (ditto), and criminal (absolutely)—then . . . why is the entire regime still in place, except for Maduro and his wife?

they're doing it for gender, imo

1 of 3 The recent shooting situation in Caracas Venezuela is over. There was no coup or US incursion. Someone launched a quadcopter & the entire security apparatus got paranoid & started shooting at it.

Pretty cool www.bbc.com/news/article...

Meh, maybe not so much.

No one is stopping Trump. No one. In fact, the opposite is true. He's enabled by everyone around him, Congress, the media, the courts, and now the military. Trump has suspended the Constitution. He just hasn't formally announced it. If you think things are bad now, you have not seen anything yet.

No one is impressed apple.news/AA0pRDDcgRR6...

Crazy — @mrglobaltoo.bsky.social pointed out oil companies won’t jump at the chance to spend $100 BILLION to rebuild Venezuela’s oil infrastructure. Trump’s solution? WE PAY FOR IT FOR THEM. 🤔 The corruption is endless. They are looting the treasury. www.reuters.com/business/ene...
