Trump’s team of Epstein class advisors says it out loud more often than you’d think: “consumers are the last of our concern right now”

Khanna on Fox News: "There was no imminent threat. Now there's a threat to the United States. We've created a threat."

Zelenskyy: "Putin never wanted to stop the war. America has to make big pressure on Putin or he will not negotiate. Of course the situation in Iran gives him more money, and the process of taking off the sanctions also is helpful for him. It gives him more assurance that he can continue the war."

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled. A truly extraordinary moment. We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. Act like it.

I have nothing to add here. Yes, it’s that bad.

What he says…

Murphy: I have great sympathy for our soldiers and our military leaders they are being given directions by a senile old man who is losing his mind. And so it's no surprise that this war is going horribly

Trump keeps calling his war on Iran an “excursion,” like it’s a sightseeing trip. You can almost hear the briefing where someone said “incursion,” and he just ran with the wrong word. The people paid to advise him are either too afraid to step in or are just fine with him looking like a fool.

Yeah. Trump is sick in the head! We don't need a brain surgeon to tell us what we already know, but there it is. This explains it. So why is this lunatic still allowed to ruin our country? Watch the end of the video.

The Trump administration could really restore confidence by getting the entire Cabinet to ride a tanker through the Straits of Hormuz to show everyone how safe and easy it is now. They could bring along a lot of MAGA influencers and Fox News hosts to broadcast it all live!

Apparently, Kegseth hasn’t destroyed their ability to drop truth bombs.

A group of us in the Senate are demanding public hearings on Trump's disastrous war with Iran with Secretary Hegseth and Rubio. And we've introduced a half dozen war powers resolutions to force the Senate to vote every day on the war if the hearings don't happen.

Throughout history, waging war has always been part of the authoritarian playbook. Donald Trump’s war in Iran is the latest example. Watch.

Markwayne Mullin is the same dude already under scrutiny for suspicious stock trades. And he’s supposed to run America’s national security. • No government security experience • No law enforcement background • No intelligence work • No military service • Not even a bachelor’s degree

Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."

Soon, Pam Bondi and Howard Lutnick will testify before our Committee on Jeffrey Epstein. This is a huge win for our investigation and the American public, and we’re not stopping there. Anyone with intimate knowledge of Epstein’s crimes should come speak to us.

"You don't liberate people at the barrel of a gun. Have we learned nothing from Iraq or Afghanistan? All we seem to have learned is from Gaza. Israel has learned that you can bomb hospitals & schools with impunity." Me on MSNOW with @chrislhayes.bsky.social Full intv: youtube.com/watch?v=u7LU...

@lesdoggg.bsky.social needs to know: Why are men sending dick pics to everyone EXCEPT their doctor?

Coffee, straight out of my nose.

Himes: I have a theory on how this ends… You’re going to see oil go across $100… Projections for economic growth are going to go down. And at some point in 3-5 weeks, the president is going to say this is really not tenable. And he’s going to declare victory and walk away.

I propose a new law: Anyone who expresses support for an offensive war shall immediately be drafted to fight in it. No exceptions and no exemptions for any reason, including disability or service as a government official in any office. Presidents and congressmen shall fight in any war they start.

NOEM: I would disagree with the judge CROCKETT: I'm sure you would, but can you tell me whether or not you have a law degree? NOEM: A what? CROCKETT: A law degree NOEM: No I do no- CROCKETT: Okay

wow -- Tillis goes ballistic on Noem, telling her "what we've seen is a disaster under your leadership"

Former Middle East adviser at the US Department of Defense, Jasmine El-Gamal, has it exactly right.

FYI Markwayne Mullin is not A war veteran and never served

They spent billions on regime change in Venezuela and left the Maduro's head of torture in charge. They are now spending billions on regime change in Iran, knowing the most likely outcome will be harder line leadership. We do not have serious people running our country.

Let’s all call Massie today and get him to switch parties. Then force Gonzalez to resign. Then get the gavel, issue some subpoenas, and impeach some motherfuckers

You have clearly not read the War Powers Act, Mike. Everything you've written is totally wrong. The War Powers Act SPECIFICALLY PROHIBITS military action unless: a/ there is a prior congressional authorization; or b/ it's a response to an attack against the U.S.

Chris Murphy: "We need to stand up for the American citizens that ICE is murdering, the kids they're terrorizing. They should stop this illegal war and they should stop ICE from terrorizing our communities. We should demand they do both things."

Mark Warner: "I saw no intelligence that Iran was on the verge of launching any kind of preemptive strike against the United States. None."

To recap: Anthropic refused to do killbots or mass surveillance. DOD trying to destroy company. Altman: we are now working with DOD, who totally respect safety and oppose mass surveillance! Why would anyone trust a word Altman says after this?

things every single republican president of your lifetime has done - started a war in the middle east - completely destroyed the economy

This is amazing. www.getyourfuckingmoneyback.com

BREAKING Former ICE agent: On my first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a judicial warrant.

Former ICE agent: My first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a warrant. I watched ICE cut classes that teach our legal system, firearms training, use of force, lawful arrests, and the limits of officers' authority

The next C-SPAN caller was on point too. Chester in Baton Rouge: The elephant in the room still is that, the two sex offenders on the Supreme Court is gonna go along with the sex offender in the White House.

Democrats should run this year on returning tariff revenue to Americans. Trump already said today he’s going to fight this in the courts. An easy mode way to be on the right side of the affordability issue.

This dude @rokhanna.bsky.social is out here making sense

Montage of Howard Lutnick over the past 9 months constantly moving the goalposts on when the economy is going to be booming - 4Q! 1Q! 2Q! 1 year! He was asked in March when it wasn’t going to be Biden’s fault anymore: “We own the economy in the 4th quarter!”

The Supreme Court:

They said it. We’re all thinking it.

Ted Lieu: “Donald Trump is in the Epstein files thousands and thousands of times. In those files, there are highly disturbing allegations of Donald Trump raping children … of Donald Trump threatening to kill children. So I encourage the press to go look at these allegations.”

How is it possible that Kristi Noem still has this job. Imagine if you’re a family member or a shipmate of this guardsman. www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...

This is the interview Donald Trump didn’t want you to see. His FCC refused to air my interview with Stephen Colbert. Trump is worried we’re about to flip Texas.

Democrats should propose amendments to the SAVE act that require the government to furnish free IDs to all eligible voters before requiring them, automatically register all people to vote, expand mail-in voting, and create a national voting holiday. Then watch republicans block them.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage. The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.” It’s about control.

Democrats should promise, today, that Melania Trump, Elon Musk and Peter Thiel will be stripped of citizenship and deported if the administration advances this effort
