do any religious texts mention golden idols anywhere

still thinking about that Goldman Sachs “analysis” that predicted we would be at 120% of normal traffic in the strait of Hormuz by now

I know gas is five dollars a gallon and all but are immigrants still eating peoples’ dogs and cats in Ohio because I remember that was a big issue during the campaign

My resolution proposing a constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision now has 79 co-sponsors. You can view the full list at: www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c.... I’ll keep fighting to get it across the finish line!

The Most Corrupt Supreme Court in American History….

I just can’t even. “There were small bite marks near his eye. He didn’t even realize what had happened until I asked him. He said he felt something on his face while sleeping,” The RAT BITE became infected. www.dropsitenews.com/p/gaza-rats-...

I will deny saying this during the AFC playoffs, but man, I love everything about Buffalo.

Damn this is excellent and fearless reporting. We have all been too damn distracted by theatrics for the last decade. www.dropsitenews.com/p/susan-coll...

Trump says ‘I’m not a rapist, I didn’t rape anybody’ and Norah O’Donnell doesn’t mention the E Jean Carroll case or the jury finding him liable for sexual abuse or the judge saying it could be said Trump did ‘rape’ her in the ‘commonly’ understood sense: www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

the irony is that there are many journalists who are threatened and killed for their work globally, except they don’t overlap at all with the people willing to attend the MAGA White House correspondent’s dinner

Violence has no place in our nation. Grateful to hear reports that everyone at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner is safe and the suspect is in custody. While we await more details, I’m thankful for the quick response by law enforcement.

And Journalism is DEAD.

This is a media failure at every fucking level. Journalism is DEAD in America.

Ala Stanford, Philly congressional candidate: “As a surgeon, I cannot look at images of wounded children and think this is acceptable. Humanity has to come first … No parent — Israeli or Palestinian — should have to bury a child because leaders failed.” Yet: www.dropsitenews.com/p/aipac-udp-...

We are 7 weeks into the most egregious stock market manipulations of our lifetime. Orchestrated by a crooked president and his underlings. Billions siphoned via false proclamations of ceasefires and peace talks. With the criminals in charge, every day is a crime spree.

A crisis in the Strait of Hormuz is no longer just about oil. It is quietly threatening the global food supply.

Then why cut it? Hhhmmmm ‘OFR is funded by fees levied on large financial institutions, meaning cuts to the office do not contribute to deficit reduction. The agency told employees that Treasury’s decision to shrink its budget… necessitated the layoffs.’ www.govexec.com/workforce/20...

"Journalists covering the U.S. and Israel’s war on Iran should be telling their audiences not only what they know but what they were prevented from finding out, and by whom."

Constituents are asking me, “What’s going on with funding for ICE?” Let me explain with my favorite treat from the 14th District.

Reporters busy chasing their tails in a nonstop news world haven’t read the SAVE ACT but Jenny did, and now I am … informed. Angry, tired, disgusted— but informed.

Wow -- as first spotted by @BadFoxGraphics on X, Fox & Friends this morning used *old footage of a previous dignified transfer* to mislead their audience about the fact that Trump wore a baseball cap during the one yesterday

Fuck WVa lawmakers and the close-minded, frightened people who voted them in.

Spain's leader with a message that should be adopted by every top Democrat

Wow. Powerful political cartoon by: Carlos Latuff - Mondoweiss.

We are near Galle. Big news here. www.themorning.lk/articles/6eD...

Iranian Navy Moudge-class frigate IRIS Dena sunk by submarine off the coast of Sri Lanka. 101 missing, 78 wounded. Sri Lankan Coast Guard on scene.

Today's explanation for the Iran War (they shift by the minute) is that Israel was going to attack and so we had to as well. We were "forced" into war by Netanyahu. That's the definition of weakness - being suckered into a war of choice that no American wants.

Psychos. They’re gonna kill us all for their imagined glory of JHC. jonathanlarsen.substack.com/p/us-troops-...

so, torture. they’re torturing them as federal policy. entirely predictable, but that doesn’t make it any less evil

Here's a Jan. 6 rioter posing with a press pass before Pete Hegseth's press conference, just to give you a sense of the type of "journalists" who were in the Pentagon briefing room this morning.

Interesting detail - Fox & Friends is hosted by the regular weekday hosts this morning not the weekend cast. How would Fox News have enough time to ask the regular cast to come in? The show starts at 6AM but they are usually there hours earlier.

there are a lot of people working in the government right now who want to intentionally trigger an apocalypse to create the conditions for the return of jesus christ and I know how crazy that sounds but its absolutely true

In case you’re just waking up, the U.S. has teamed up with Israel overnight to start an illegal war of regime change, apparently on a presidential whim with no involvement of Congress, and they are already committing horrific atrocities.

For the umpteenth time: Trump does not have the constitutional authority to do this. He doesn’t. But also for the umpteenth time: We do not have a Congress. We don’t.

Never let Maureen Dowd or the New York Times forget

And the World’s Greatest Deliberative Body will have nothing to say about it. 🤡
