Got up insanely early to talk about aftermath of Trump’s speech. Bottom line: A dud by many metrics. But be careful. It wasn’t intended to convince; it was to activate and arm the faithful. It was the starting gun going off for a sequence of attacks against the election. youtu.be/HTboRPK5ZKc?...

AIPAC and other outside groups have spent nearly $50 million in support of Haley Stevens in the Michigan Senate primary. They're among the biggest dark money spenders this year. Watch.

seems like a real hallmark of our era is the total inability to be normal about anything. it is just a movie! watch it or not but this shit is weird.

I don't know where he gets these ideas from.

Another reason to shop at thrift stores? Quinn Brown paid $3 for a Wilt Chamberlain warm-up jacket from the 1972 NBA finals at a thrift store. Sotheby’s authenticated it and estimated its value at up to $250,000.

The orange felon was booed ferociously at the World Cup and it was like beautiful music to the ears.

Reps. Pramila Jayapal, Chris Deluzio, and Pat Ryan have introduced a bill to break up meat monopolies. Good. Right now, 4 meat processing corporations control 80% of the market, allowing them to squeeze customers and farmers alike. Minimal competition means maximal price gouging.

AOC is borrowing from Barack Obama's 2008 playbook as she campaigns across the U.S.

With US soldiers dying because of his illegal war maybe Trump should have passed on trying to steal the limelight at the World Cup awards ceremony. Certainly crowd did not seem so happy to see him.

I feel like it’s a good feel-good moment having Trump reminded that everyone hates him.

Trump called Spain a terrible partner in NATO and wanted to cut off all trade with them. Spain played Argentina in the World Cup final. Argentina had Messi, the GOAT. Trump rooted for Argentina, and he showed up. Once again, #ETTD won out. I believe it's become the most powerful force in the world.

BREAKING: The unity message of this World Cup halftime show is completely lost on Trump

What the fuck is Trump doing up there? He didn’t win the World Cup and the Spanish players obviously didn’t want to take a photo with him. Sad and pathetic!!!

We need to talk more about age limits in government service, from Congress to the Supreme Court. These are people with generous pensions. At some point, they need to know when it’s time to go. Too many refuse. Maybe it’s time to make it law.

Remember when Trump & Republicans claimed a vague MOU was the same as a comprehensive peace deal and it ended the war? How did that scam work out? Iran got sanctions lifted and sold billions in oil while taking advantage of Dummy Trump as the war continues with no end in sight.

This worked out great. For Iran.

🚨🚨BREAKING: CENTCOM has expanded the toll from this weekend’s Iranian attacks. Additional remains found in Jordan believed to be the missing service member (ID pending), plus a separate KIA in northern Iraq during an unexploded ordnance from a downed Iranian drone — with a second troop wounded.
