I do not traffic in or promote conspiracy theories. But I also refuse to turn a blind eye to what is plainly happening to our democracy. My latest. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

Robert De Niro will appear this week at Carnegie Hall, where he will recite excerpts from a Philip Glass symphony about Abraham Lincoln that the composer once intended to stage at the Kennedy Center.

Get this! Only 27% of Americans, and just 14% of independents, said they trust Trump to make the right choices when it comes to the use of military force abroad. Devastating numbers for Trump.

During the marathon campaign rally that Trump called his SOTU speech, he "unveiled" a proposal for the federal government to provide matching contributions of up to $1,000 per year to the retirement accounts of low-wage earners. It's a great idea. It is also already a law signed by Biden in 2022.

An honest headline to an honest story. Trump's march to war with Iran is NOT driven by Iran's killing of its own citizens nor by Trump's concern over Iran's nuclear program. Trump is rushing toward a war of choice because he believes it will boost his historically low popularity.

This is Trump's America.

Life imitates art. 29 years ago, Wag the Dog told the story of a US president mired in sex scandal that threatened to undermine his presidency so he decided he needed to concoct a make-believe war to boost his support.

Trump ranks among Trump's most damning critics of his war of choice (and distraction) in Iran.

Trump does not care about American lives, American law, or the security of our partners. Trump only cares about Trump. He launched this war as a direct response to historically bad poll numbers and increased attention to his crimes with Epstein.

Now is a good time to recall that the Trump hotel in Azerbaijan was built in a partnership with one of the most notorious post-Soviet Mafia leaders and Iran's Revolutionary Guard. Yeah, that Revolutionary Guard. As they say, you can tell a lot about a man by the company he keeps.

Luckovich nails it again!

The latest addition to this saga is that the White House has said that 6'9" Barron Trump is "too tall to serve in the military." That's evidently their modern equivalent of Trump's bogus bone spurs story. David Robinson is 7' tall and put his lucrative NBA career on hold to serve in the Navy.

Hegseth is not as subtle as he thinks he is.

Boebert is only tough when the cameras are on her. Hillary threw her in the trash, where she belongs.

Ossoff: "The president owes Americans a real explanation. 2am posts on Truth Social just aren't good enough when you're sending Americans into combat. He was dancing at his beach club the same night he ordered air crews to launch into combat & hours before our service members endured missile salvos"

TENNESSEE PEEPS!

"Trump's attack on Iran is terrifying in part because it's so untethered from policy goals and logic. He offered a range of half-hearted explanations for his rush to war, but the conflicting excuses only underlined the obvious truth — he attacked Iran because he felt like it."

Our taxes are paying for this instead of healthcare.

TOMORROW: Primary Day in Texas, North Carolina and Arkansas! TX: 7am-7pm NC: 6:30am-7:30pm AR: 7:30am-7:30pm GOTV REMINDER: In TX, NC & AR any voter IN LINE when polls close must be allowed to vote. Tell your friends: "Don't walk away. If you're in line by close, you vote." #sheshed

Trump is not well. Put him out to pasture already.

saved curtains but not humans

I watched that live this morning. I really couldn't believe what I was hearing. He also stated that the ballroom is going to cost under $400,000,000 which is roughly twice what it was supposed to cost last summer. Talk about off on a wild tangent and totally tone deaf.

Hillary Clinton has bigger balls than James Comer could ever dream of having. She ran circles around him, his ragtag bunch of dimwits, and did it with a smile on her face. She wanted the media at her deposition. He didn’t. Now we know why.

Aaron's work is essential to me 👇🏼

The death toll from the Iran school tragedy has hit 148, mostly children aged 7–12, with 95 others wounded. A staggering, unforgivable loss that defines our current moral decay.

I took the Colbert Questionert! Watch the full interview here: youtu.be/HPONVyNiWsU?...

If it’s not a “war” why are our “warfighters” and our “Department of War” fighting it?

Because the Prime Minster of Israel is telling the stupid buffoon in the White House what to do?

Not gonna happen

Until we stop talking about the Epstein files..

Just curious, how long does it take to obliterate an already obliterated nuclear program? Asking for 8.3 billion friends.

Trump illegally jacked up costs on the American people. The Payback Act says: run us our money back.

My heart breaks for the three service members who have lost their lives, and I am praying for those who were wounded. America’s sons and daughters are being put in harm’s way because of Donald Trump’s illegal war. Congress must act to rein in Donald Trump before more lives are lost.

Another MAGA Moron taking credit for the infrastructure bill that she voted against and criticized the Biden administration, and still does, but will take full credit for fighting for dollars for her goddamn red state.

Pretty accurate

Yeah.

I prefer non-lethal distractions from the tRUMPSTEIN Files like renaming the Gulf of Mexico, making Canada the 51st state & buying Greenland. Sure it was hugely offensive to longtime friends & allies, but at least no one died.

I'm 64 and I never thought I would see the day when our Constitutional rights would be called left-wing radicalism, our president was a rapist and pedophile, or that SCOTUS and Republicans would conspire to bring about the downfall of democracy. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed #VoteOutRepublicans

Let me guess, wealthy people who moved to Dubai to avoid paying taxes now want the countries they moved from to protect them?

Donald Trump has launched more military attacks at more countries than any other president this century. An yet, the simple-minded fool is *obsessed* with getting a shiny Peace Prize.

Donald Trump took the United States to war today, killing Iranian school children and risking the lives of people in America's military. He is currently yucking it up at a fundraiser. He's a shallow, glib person without any regard for the serious consequences of his lies, scams, and incompetence.

I guess we now know why Saudi Arabia and Qatar, Iran's two biggest regional rivals, bribed Trump and his family with a 747 jet, golf development deals, and billions of dollars of investments.

🚨🚨🚨 THIS IS NOT NORMAL 🚨🚨🚨

NBC: “Are you committing your missiles won’t have the capability to reach 🇺🇸?” Iranian FM: “Yes.” NBC: “Then why are you bombing our bases?” Iranian FM: “Because they’re attacking us.”
