Chris Murphy: "We're giving Iran $14B to fund its war with us? We're giving Russia billions to fund their war with Ukraine? We're literally giving money to the nations we're fighting! We've never seen this level of incompetence in war-making, and we've had a LOT of incompetence in war-making!"

That's how the "Bibi made him do it" narrative is working. Trump voters get to say that it's not his fault, and therefore not their fault for voting for him. But they all had choices. They all had full information. They all chose to ignore it for egotistical reasons, and here we are.

Trump voters have been repeatedly warned, for a decade, that the man is a sociopathic narcissist who would do something stupid — like start a war with Iran — to boost his own ego. Now that the warnings were proved true, they want a story about how they are innocent, and it wasn't their fault.

There's no going back in history to fix the situation, alas. But what we can do is reject any narrative that minimizes Trump's blame for the Iran war. He did this because he wanted to. Because he's a very stupid narcissist who thought he could win a war everyone else knew better than to start.

mind-boggling to me that i still have yet to see a single democrat utter the phrase “every republican president of your lifetime has destroyed the economy and started a war”

Kind of revealing that when a widely admired woman falls from grace the story is "She was mean to her staff sometimes" but when a widely admired man falls from grace the story is "He raped a bunch of 12-year-olds"

Probs shouldn’t have spent $100B on crab legs and pianos in September. If the Pentagon wants more money, tell them to borrow it from ICE and CBP.

Labor activist Dolores Huerta went public with her own account of being raped by Cesar Chavez. Huerta said that she kept the secret for the last sixty years because she was worried that the abuse would hurt the movement she spent her entire life fighting for.

The next move, I hope, is @robertgarcia.bsky.social holding a press conference asking why the attorney general won't give testimony under oath about the sex trafficking ring that likely implicates the president. And then another the next day. And the next. And the next.

Jerome Powell confirmed today that the causes of inflation and net zero job growth are Trump’s immigration policy, Trump’s tariffs, and Trump’s war in Iran.

Let them eat measles

just so proud of kat and the campaign she ran. the images of her standing up to ice goons and being assaulted outside broadview is so inspiring and going to be something i remember forever she has set a new bar for what we should expect from our politicians and candidates

You wouldn’t be dying for America, you’d be dying for trump and Hegseth

Lieu: "I want the White House to send Kevin Hassett to every single TV channel and to every single swing House district where he can tell the voters of America that hurting consumers is 'the last of our concerns.'"

All of these are policies they're already supposed to be following. So why would anyone believe they'll start following them in exchange for DHS funding. I mean, come on. The proper response to "We won't deport U.S. citizens if you fund DHS" is, "Are you fucking kidding me?"

🇬🇧 UK DIPLOMATS say Iran was willing to make a deal before 🇺🇸 & 🇮🇱 attacked — adding: “One diplomat with knowledge of the talks said: We regarded Witkoff and Kushner as Israeli assets that dragged a president into a war he wants to get out of.” www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

Yes! Me too!

I like leaders who are not authoritarian thugs. I believe in FREE and FAIR elections. Pass it on.

He wasn't just an asylum seeker. Paktyawal was an Afghan special forces soldier who worked with the U.S. Army's 3rd Special Forces Group. He was evacuated on August 30, 2021, entered the U.S. legally and had a pending case with a work permit and social security number. Killed by ICE maggots.

"I ASSUMED the US Military had an active plan to open the Strait." How can people who are paid to understand geopolitics be so bafflingly naive?

U.S. troops killed in Trump’s Iran war: 13 Epstein clients arrested: 0

Every now and then, it's worth reminding yourself that every single crisis of Trump 2.0 -- the economic downturn, the chaos in our cities, the rising health crisis, the foreign wars -- has been a direct result of their own actions. If they'd done nothing at all, they'd be coasting comfortably.

They cut research into cancer and Alzheimer’s and diabetes by up to half to fund bombs to drop on elementary schools.

Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."

By passing emergency funding for the Iran war, Congress would also authorize it. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/for-tru...

Please stop referring to the Voter Elimination Act by the Orwellian moniker MAGA gave it, which makes it sound good. We do not need to repeat their words (ahem, "Patriot Act," "Citizens United") but rather make clear exactly what's at stake.

I can’t believe we’re doing this again. More ground troops with families being sent into another stupid war in the Middle East by politicians who don’t give a damn about them. We’ve learned nothing. Absolutely nothing.

zero loyalty to the US. what a traitor Trump is

the effing wheels are off the bus: Economy Fourth-quarter GDP revised down to just 0.7% growth; January core inflation was 3.1%

Popular podcast host Allison Gill consistently warned about war with Iran leading up to the 2024 election and never endorsed Donald Trump.

Sen. Slotkin: “There's press reports that the Russians are helping target US ships and aircraft…If Russia is helping kill U.S. forces, we have crossed a Rubicon…We have to take decisive action on that, and instead, we're giving them breaks on oil.”

So Trump WANTS you to pay more at the pump. Better for him and his billionaire buddies in the Epstein class

I was told we already won this war.

You cannot tell voters (accurately) this is a fascist regime that is hell bent on destroying us - let alone rely on it (as Dems are) as your GOTV while also voting yourselves to enable the regime.

1 week. $11.3 billion. But we “don’t have the money” for health care. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/11/w...

No posts from Jake Tapper anywhere today (or yesterday for that matter) about what's happening with the Strait of Hormuz. Probably not an important story.

Stephen Miller is a toxic substance – a 21st century American version of a Nazi. Democrats need to make him an issue in the midterms. My latest.

The United States lost 92,000 jobs last month Grocery prices have climbed through the roof Affordable housing remains a pipe dream for many Americans Forget about being able to keep your health insurance The DOW is plummeting And-due to his illegal war in Iran-now we have #TrumpsGasProblem

Epstein Latest: A newly surfaced document reveals an inmate told the FBI he overheard guards talking about covering up Epstein's death the morning he died. Miami Herald Investigative Reporter, Julie K. Brown, describes what the inmate claims he heard.

Hello.

As oil prices soar, remember: It was four days ago when Trump said he helped “stabilize” gas prices, touting the “decisive action” his administration took “to help keep down the oil prices.” Yeah, about that... www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

AWFUL!! Oil is now over $100 a barrel. Experts keep warning that if oil remains over $100 for a prolonged period it will cause a global recession. One thing is certain: Inflation in the US is about to explode! Thank Trump and the GOP for this!!

Mission accomplished. Oil is now well over $100. One market is up around 20% today, “after adding a record 36% last week.” www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Body camera footage newly obtained by CBS News shows the moments leading up to and after an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent fatally shot US citizen Ruben Ray Martinez in March 2025 and contradicts the Department of Homeland Security’s account of the killing.
