[TW: graphic fracture, sound of breaking bone] Sen Tim Sheehy (R-Montana) badly breaking the arm of a Marine veteran protesting the war Iran.

So, in launching a huge bombing campaign on Iran they apparently didn't plan for: - Who takes over; - Interceptor shortages from sustained drone retaliation; - How to defend US bases in the region; - Threats to ships in the Strait of Hormuz; and - How to evacuate Americans with airspace closed.

I do not enjoy this timeline.

Over on Twitter: 🍿

I hate how accurate this tweet is.

I think we need to take a step back and acknowledge the absurdity of House Republicans targeting their Epstein investigation on HILLARY CLINTON (who says she never met him!) while ignoring DONALD TRUMP (who Epstein described as his best friend!) These are not serious people or good faith actors.

Who are the other 11%? Fellow pedophiles?

Trump delivered his State of the Union in the very chamber his MAGA extremists attacked on January 6 to help him overturn an election. And corporate media barely bothered to say it out loud. That erasure — that quiet smoothing-over — is exactly how authoritarianism gets normalized.

The White House is obsessed with hiding the President's involvement in a child sex ring. It's what they spend most of their time on.

After text messages revealed that Rep. Tony Gonzales pressured a married staffer to send him explicit photos and engage in an affair that led to her suicide, Boebert joins Luna & Mace calling for him to resign and defends it from Republicans concerned about their majority.

The Ford Pinto had a death rate of 85 people for 10 million cars sold. The Cybertruck hasn't sold 10 million, but the fatality rate so far maths out to 1,452 people killed per 10 million sold. The Cybertruck may be the deadliest road car, for the occupants, ever sold. fuelarc.com/evs/its-offi...

Pritzker demands a $1,700 refund per family for the people of Illinois after Trump's tariffs were ruled unconstitutional. Dems, pay attention. This is your midterms message.

Republicans aren’t arguing about voter ID. They’re arguing about who gets to vote. I just published a deep dive on how trump and the GOP are quietly sabotaging the 2026 midterms with paperwork, red tape, and lies. Read. Share. Don’t look away. brooklyndaddefiant.substack.com/p/how-trump-...

Um? Because they are actual democracies? www.nytimes.com/2026/02/18/u...

Trump: It’s a hoax. We should move on. Trump’s DOJ: There’s nothing to investigate. The UN: The revelations suggest a global criminal enterprise…a number of the abuses meet the legal threshold of crimes against humanity. www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/202...

Not sure who needs to hear this but the voter fraud rate is a mere 0.000003%. Anyone telling you otherwise is making shit up so they can take away your right to vote.

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

An Irish man held by ICE for five months despite having a valid work permit and no criminal record says he fears for his life and has appealed for help from Ireland’s government. “I’m not in fear of the other inmates. I’m afraid of the staff. They’re capable of anything.”

I hope lawyers, secretaries of state, and state attorneys general are preparing for what’s coming.

Anti-woke, worse—a lot worse, tbh—than woke. “The National Park Service has removed visitor brochures from the Medgar & Myrlie Evers Home National Monument. Among the anticipated changes? No longer calling his murderer a ‘racist.’” mississippitoday.org/2026/02/05/m...

Jesus Ochoa is a Border Patrol agent who joined CBP in 2018. Raymundo Gutierrez joined in 2014 and works for CBP’s Office of Field Operations. Records show both men are from South Texas.

A reminder that the Kennedy Center is the literal and legal and congressional designated presidential memorial to JFK. This would be like Trump tearing down the Lincoln Memorial to build something “better.”

multiple trump-created crises converging with deadly results.

Just got gassed pretty good at the labor union anti-ICE protest in Portland. Massive march, 5-10k strong. Vibes were very much liberal rather than radical. Lots of kids and older folks. They gassed the whole crowd as soon as it marched on ICE, in broad daylight.

CONG. ENABLES TRUMP! Congress is made up of cowards & profiteers. It CAN stop trump but its loyalty lies w megadonors & all are gaining from tax cuts! While we expect it to uphold the Constitution & support us, too, the money's too good. Congress doesn't want to lose that. We're insignificant!
