Wow. Mark Kelly’s Devastating Takedown of Trump.

If you're seeing headlines about how China is "switching back to US soybeans" after Brazil's turned out to be contaminated LOL no. It's like 5 facilities and 69K tons of soybeans. Out of ~2,000 facilities and ~100M tons of beans shipped from Brazil to china. www.thepoultrysite.com/news/2025/11...

1/2 This has got to be one of most painful responses to watch. The White House simply does not deny the follow up strike was to allow no survivors. And the 'law' Leavitt cites is utterly irrelevant (self-defense is a non-sequitur, it's not armed conflict, and 'no survivors' is a crime).

Last week: In response to WaPo’s story on the Sept. 2 boat strikes, the Pentagon says “This entire narrative is completely false.” Today: The White House confirms that a 2nd strike happened and that “Secretary Hegseth authorized Admiral Bradley to conduct these kinetic strikes”

Here’s the TPUSA version of events at OU. Not surprisingly, they lie about what happened — she wasn’t flunked for quoting the Bible; she never even quoted it — and accuse the instructor, whom they name, as being “mentally ill”

“Readers recognized themselves in “poor moon-faced, unloved, misunderstood” Charlie Brown — in his dignity in the face of whole seasons of doomed baseball games, his endurance and stoicism in the face of insults. He … reminded people, as no other cartoon character+

We are blowing up foreign boats and extrajudicially killing people in the name of stopping drugs, but Trump is happy to pardon a corrupt ex-president charged with drug trafficking.

“They’re terrified. It’s insane,” Shawn VanDiver, president of a group that helps resettle Afghans who assisted the U.S. during the two-decade war, said. “People are acting xenophobic because of one deranged man. He doesn’t represent all Afghans. He represents himself.” https://to.pbs.org/4paRSMD

There’s no fking way I’d let anyone talk to a woman like that…I don’t know why other reporters stand mute while this abuse happens in front of them.

💯. It's not these patriotic citizens' fault they're being used as performative props by a corrupt, mendacious, and deranged president. They deserve our kindness and respect, and now, devastatingly, our deepest concern and sympathy. 😢

🏆🏆🏆 Dave’s right. Human cruelty can break hearts… then others will mend them. It’s a good time to visit, and donate to, your local animal shelters.

We killed her, America. It's your fault. You failed at keeping the republic to which you were entrusted. And I'm pissed off at you. I am deeply ashamed of my own culpability as a citizen.
