Kernan is SO CLUELESS. SO OUT OF TOUCH. just like HIS president. SO Pathetic.

Joe Kernen comes close to having a coronary on air as Pete Buttigieg dogwalks him all over the Squawk Box studio about Trump's economic mismanagement and inflation

In a new column, KFF’s @drewaltman.bsky.social explains that while affordability is the most salient issue in health care politics right now, the issue of the uninsured will make a comeback if the number of people without coverage continues to climb as expected. https://on.kff.org/4mhgHWk

Another video — this is about the negotiations. Again, even though catchy, the videos do the talking for the regime. Sharing is NOT encouraged. Here’s a snippet for your information.

Vance before departing DC for his trip to Islamabad: “As POTUS said, if the Iranians are willing to negotiate in good faith, we're certainly willing to extend the open hand. If they're going to try to play us, then they're going to find that the negotiating team is not that receptive.”

Trump on Aug. 15, 2024: “When I win, I will immediately bring prices down, starting on Day 1.” April 10, 2026, after 15 months of Trump: The annual inflation rate hits 3.3%, highest in 2 years.

For all the folks that slept through history class and for those that just want a refresher.

An avowed bad-faith republican can co-host a news show for a major network as an alleged journalist because the intent of corporate media is to support the republican party

Hmmm... Ohio, Republican, yeah, that tracks.

‼️People can’t afford groceries or to fill up their tanks‼️ This multimillion-dollar vanity project had better not ever see the light of day. When asked who the arch was for, Donald Trump reportedly answered: “Me. It’s going to be beautiful.” Construction is expected to begin later this year.

Fair question

“Vouchers” are a scam by Christian Nationalists to funnel secular tax dollars into for-profit Christian churches running businesses called “private schools”

I think we can safely remove the title of “leader of the free world” from the US Presidency now

I hear the team of lawyers is meeting now on a small island in the Caribbean.

Clearly not much of a historian. He's a great grifter though.

🤡😂🤣

I should not be forced to think about the president this much.

Cal State Channel Islands philosophy lecturer Jonathan Caravello has just been ACQUITTED of assaulting ICE/CBP last summer while protesting a brutal Ventura County cannabis farm raid! His defense argued he threw a tear gas canister away to protect protesters. The jury acquitted him in two hours.

You know something has gone terribly wrong when 94% of teachers have to dip into their own pockets to buy school supplies while the average Wall Street employee got a bonus of $246,900 in 2025. Hello?

All of the above Add Rat deserting the sinking Trump ship.

The only president stupid enough to do it.

If I lived in Lebanon, this would make me very nervous. Netanyahu has a clear incentive to provoke Iran to pull out of the ceasefire by attacking Lebanon again. Netanyahu always prioritizes himself over the lives of innocent civilians.

2 Days until the VOTE in Hungary. Will the Russian Influence Machine win out?

Exactly what I wrote yesterday, you naturally start asking: who exactly are you working for? When even Trump can’t convince his own MAGA base anymore, something’s shifted.

President Zelensky confirms new arrivals of Patriot interceptors from Middle Eastern partners.

Interesting story. Could be worth following—who knows? oglobo.globo.com/google/amp/m...

Everybody probably thought that cos they all spoke the same language it didn't matter. People crap on Chamberlain but he didn't then try as hard as possible to make UK dependent on German coal. Nor did he have the obvious historical parallel to learn from. Merkel did.

Still. At least the status quo was an option, unlike Crimea. Which means in that comparison Hitler was more democratic.

OTD in 1938 the Austrian Anschluss vote took place. A dictator had sent his army over the border to make sure the illegal referendum got the right result. Imagine that happening today.

Russia orders regions to form “volunteer” lists from debtors and students, using debt write-offs and incentives to pressure enlistment; relatives are also targeted, while universities push at least 2% of students to sign military contracts. #Russia

Being threatened with total annhilation solely because of belonging in a particular group would tend to create solidarity within the group, I would think. Who could have ever predicted that

“The strongman image he’s desperately been trying to cultivate all his life has collapsed. And that is why we’re now all in a dangerous situation.”

Welcome to TrumpEpsteinaStan where Dear Leader uses empress to distract from failed illegal war in Iran — created to distract from Epstein files by hiring his mob criminal lawyer to bury the files via Melania’s flip rhetoric to reward her with Noem’s private jet. www.reuters.com/world/us/mel...

The New York Times reporting on how Trump and his inner circle came to the decision to attack Iran is so infuriating lmao. "Ultimately, his inner circle trusted his gut because he'd already gotten away with so much he shouldn't have." BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T HOLD HIM ACCOUNTABLE. YOU! AHHHH!

“This is not a happy story in terms of the security of the U.S.,” said Tony Sager, who spent more than three decades as a computer scientist at the National Security Agency. “This is not security. This is security theater.”

A former Army lawyer was alarmed by President Donald Trump's rantings about coverage of the war on Iran during a segment on CNN's "NewsNight" on Thursday. | Raw Story www.rawstory.com/amp/trump-ir...

3/Zelenskyy emphasized that this is not about offense, but about security, as Russia plans to increase its army to 2.5 million troops by 2030.

2/“Great Britain, Ukraine, Turkey, and Norway. These are four strong countries that are part of Europe. Together, the armies of Great Britain, Ukraine, and Turkey are stronger than the Russian one. Without Ukraine and Turkey, Europe cannot match Russia.”

❗️Without Ukraine and Turkey, Europe will not be able to match Russia — Zelenskyy In the event of a U.S. withdrawal from NATO, Europe's security will depend on the EU itself, but in its current form, the EU is not prepared for this.
