"Many of the 13 military bases in the region used by American troops are all but uninhabitable... Iranian officials have even accused the U.S. military of using civilians as human shields by putting American troops in hotels." archive.ph/e7yOL (New York Times)

“Donald Trump is the best thing that ever happened to green energy.”

We invaded Venezuela, kidnapped their leader and installed a puppet, and are now pillaging the country's resources just like the fascists in the 1930s did, and somehow this has already been normalized and isn't being treated as the crime it is

No idea if it’s true but it seems extremely likely.

Why does Karoline Leavitt always sound like she is angrily lecturing the nation? She lies. Could the questions they throw at her be any more softball?

I worry that Delta closing its special services for those in Congress will make it more difficult for Ted Cruz to abandon his constituents in a crisis.

'The $20k Iranian Shahed drone needs to be intercepted by a $4m Patriot missile. The US can make 500/yr and has an est. 2,000...It has used an estimated 200-400 of these in...3 wks... Iran has an est. 80,000 Shahed drones and can make 400... A day.' open.substack.com/pub/arthursn...

The crusades took place about five hundred years before the US was founded, and they were brutal and unsuccessful. The United States was not founded on Christian principles.

Trump, Who Calls Mail-in Voting ‘Cheating,’ Just Voted by Mail

”Russia poses an existential threat to Poland, so I have decided to endorse the Kremlin’s candidate in Hungary”

Wait times at some of the country’s busiest airports were above four hours again on Tuesday, as airlines lose patience with Congress.

Putting ICE in the airports was a monumentally stupid move. He’s exposing people who otherwise would have had no interaction with them. ICE is now more visible than ever. And people already hate them.

FUN FACT: He advised Queen Elizabeth to pardon her son 3 years, 5 months & 12 days after she passed away. Please add "UNINFORMED" to my list. Thank you for your attention to this embarrassing matter.

Today's edition of "is it a Tucker Carlson monologue in 2026, or is it an article from an antisemitic, white nationalist publication from 1995?"

Stephen Miller is the White House Deputy Chief of Staff, Kash Patel is head of the FBI x.com/i/status/203...

Most honest reporting in the past few weeks.

genuinely why does anyone report anything he says at all as if it means anything still

DJT simply illustrating why threats of bombing Iran can't succeed in opening the Straits because the closure of the Straits is what the Iranian government thinks is protecting it from more aggressive action. That's why the US feels the need to come to the table in the first place.

Is the world really going to have to burn because the USA can't impeach a president?

In a nutshell... #presidentmoron #pedoinchief #trumpepstein

It's kind of fascinating how markets still react so strongly to everything Trump says despite it being contradictory and often quickly disproven. Let's see...

Well this one turned out unfortunately accurate

If Rutte disappears any further up Trump's backside we won't be able to see his shoes.

I think staffing airport screening stations with incompetent, anti-social vigilantes who murder strangers isn’t ideal.

Can't argue with that.

'Netanyahu ordered the [Israeli] military on Sunday to “immediately” strike bridges over the Litani River in S Lebanon... [Defence Minister] Katz...instructed the military to accelerate the destruction of Lebanese homes in the line of contact villages' www.aa.com.tr/en/middle-ea...

Chris Christie: "To say what the president said about Bob Mueller just shows you how completely self-consumed he is. It comes from his own sense that the only thing that matters in the world is him. That's what a child does."

Something I cannot emphasize enough is that airport security work is immensely stressful and constantly provokes arguments and disputes between security and travelers. ICE is acclimated to responding to angry backtalk with summary beatings. It's going to happen. It's gonna be on camera.

The EU officials won’t cover the treacherous Hungarian behavior any more: With any EU meeting #Putin had an extra chair behind Hungary.

Just re-upping this from a month ago.

None of the people who worked on Star Wars 1977 had worked on star wars before, total fake fans, DEI corporate slop.

Viktor Orbán is backed by Trump, Putin, and now Netanyahu. Authoritarian scoundrels may not care about the people in their countries, but they *do* care about each other.

the human body was not designed to know what the worst person in the world is doing every fifteen minutes

Soulless sociopath says what? 🤮 🤬 🖕

I can't bring myself to watch "West Wing" anymore. What? A White House staffed with principled and intelligent people who put the Country first? Can't happen.
