Damn, it’s a great illustration of how far we’ve fallen.

Massie: "I think it's ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, and the White House, and we're yelling 'election fraud'? I mean, we won all the damn elections."

The Seven Social Sins are: Wealth without work. Pleasure without conscience. Knowledge without character. Commerce without morality. Science without humanity. Worship without sacrifice. Politics without principle. -Frederick Lewis Donaldson in Westminster Abbey, London, on March 20, 1925

1. As Jared Kushner heads to Pakistan to represent the United States in critical talks with Iran, the media is ignoring a historic corruption scandal. Kushner is serving in this role while on the payroll of the Saudi government. Let's look at the data. 🧵

SNL UK is absolutely putting its American counterpart to shame dear lord

On Thursday, federal agents arrested an Antifascist protest leader for interrupting a local church service. On Friday, he was convicted & executed with no due process. On Sunday, he rose.

The American president has lost his mind.

Iran has been preparing for this eventuality for a long time. Their bunkers are well-built. That’s one of the reasons we’ve always tried to avoid the military option, and it’s the main reason Hegseth telling Trump how easy this would be was so egregious.

Interesting. Kent resigns from NCTC

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.

Well, this aged exactly how I was afraid it would

Our taxes are paying for this instead of healthcare.

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Question: But the president’s statements that he believed the election was rife with fraud—those are statements protected by the First Amendment, correct? Smith: Absolutely not. If they are made to target a lawful government function and are made with knowing falsity, then no, they are not.

Very much worth reading parts of Judge William G. Young's ruling taking on the Trump admin's assault on the First Amendment. Notable that a decision from a Reagan appointee is filled with paragraphs like this one. Story here: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore. Make it make sense.

Donald Trump elected not to attend the dignified transfer of 4 fallen U.S. soldiers at Dover Air Force Base. The soldiers died in Lithuania during a training exercise. Trump was paid millions by the Saudis to attend the LIV Golf dinner in Florida — so he was otherwise occupied. The…

The Lithuanian president showed up to honor dead American soldiers as their remains departed his country. The American president did not show up to receive their remains as they arrived in the US. He had a golf tournament to get to.

Imagine you’re Timothy Haugh, a decorated general, confirmed unanimously by the Senate to head the NSA. And while you’re traveling abroad, you find out the President just fired you on the advice of a 9/11 truther whose bigotry once got her banned by Uber.

They told me if I voted for Kamala the market would crash, and then we’d probably have a recession. They were right.

This is wild for any number of reasons, including that this arrest was made by the NYPD and the charges were brought by the Manhattan D.A. Not the feds. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

Ossoff: This is what happens when you have Fox News personalities cosplaying as government officials.

Exactly

This is what happens when you have an entire cabinet full of folks who would NEVER pass a regular security clearance. Led by a president who would never be able to pass one either.

Holy shit. They’re not even hiding the fact that they’ve turned against the alliances the were formed after fighting two world wars.

Elon and his Tech Nazis are accessing your personal data illegally, and there IS something you can do about it. Contact your state's Attorney General, or your Consumer Protection Agency here: bit.ly/4hXr3Y9. Fight back. #thelincolnproject

This is how the world views the US. Australia calling out fascism, then adding that "Trump is a disaster for humanity and he belongs behind bars, not the oval office."

Elon Musk goes to war with USAID, guards overseeing ISIS prisoners walked off the job, Musk’s fans in Russia cheered. This is not normal. Stay informed with Ron Filipkowski’s latest Daily Bulletin.
