"So, Trump did what he always does: He abandoned all principle and all allies and put his personal interests above all other considerations." www.nytimes.com/2026/06/19/o...

Sure they did.

By the way nobody is arguing that the Iranian military isn’t diminished . It is (but now they have the cash to rebuild) A military exists to achieve an outcome. And the Iranian military achieved theirs. The regime is in place, we’ve promised to leave the region, we’re lifting sanctions, etc

Epstein survivor Dani Bensky: When you have somebody like Todd Blanche at the helm of the DOJ, it’s hugely problematic. He has the president’s best interests at heart. He does not have the American people’s best interests at heart. He’s so unfit to be the acting attorney general.

"The Framers didn't intend for us to just sit back and say, 'Well we just have to wait out a criminal president who's acting continually in derogation of his duties, undermining the country and running it for his own ego and benefit.'"

Ossoff: The president has been humiliated on the world stage. Many Americans are increasingly concerned about his stability and his capacity for the office. It’s deeply distressing to Americans to see a president so incompetent attempting and failing to represent the nation.

NEW: DoJ has charged “crimes” against “antifa” in Minnesota.

Oh, so they have NOTHING nothing

Politicized incompetence at the hands of Bari Weiss. RIP editorial independence and journalistic integrity at CBS News

"We should be clear: Bari Weiss is murdering 60 Minutes. She is doing so not out of incompetence or foolishness, but with malice aforethought. She is doing it at the behest of her corporate patron."

I ain’t reading all that. I’m happy for you though, or sorry that happened

Mike Judge made Idiocracy as a warning. We treated it as a tutorial. A pro wrestler president, a gilded White House, a birthday party nobody wants to perform at — and a star burning bright right before it implodes. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

Now we’re going to give Iran $300 BILLION? Hell, at this point, if they hold out another week or so, we might give them an even trillion.

Just insane. New Jersey Gov Mikie Sherrill says DHS just denied state health inspectors full access to Delaney Hall. She's calling for it to be shut down.

The US government was legally required to release the remaining Epstein files 168 days ago. They still have not done so.

The obligation of a prosecutor to act ethically is especially important in the grand jury, where there is no judge or defense counsel to intervene. Prosecutors in Trump's DOJ are ignoring those obligations and eroding the judicial trust built up over decades. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/26/u...

This is the part getting almost no coverage: to rebuild what we burned in Iran, we need critical minerals. Minerals that China controls. The war in Iran costs more than lives and dollars, it’s handing Beijing leverage over our recovery. Full deep-dive on this at the link in my reply.

“Scares the hell out of me to think about deploying a reactor that hasn’t been through the crucible that the NRC puts us through. And I almost feel like if you don’t have that thought in your brain, maybe you shouldn’t be deploying nuclear reactors.” trib.al/UDpJV7b

Rhodes: Who looks like a more stable and predictable actor? The Chinese Communist Party, where maybe you think they’re bullies, but the terms never change? Or the United States, where you have a president who’s been imposing tariffs, launching wars, shaking you down for essentially tribute payments?

Can’t wait to watch all the people who criticized the JCPOA and excoriated Obama for “pallets of cash” try to sanewash Trump giving Iran even more cash for a worse deal than the JCPOA.

How many times will they change rules to hurt disabled people before we recognize what is happening. They want to institutionalize disabled people to remove them from society because Trump doesn't like the way they look. The people making these decisions are Nazis. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/22/u...

Wow. They’re openly defending the deletion of DOJ records about a man accused in a child solicitation case who assaulted police on January 6. Truly the Epstein administration.

"On the present trajectory, Iran will emerge from the conflict many times stronger and more influential than it was before the war. It will exercise leverage with dozens of the richest nations in the world." From Robert Kagan, @theatlantic www.theatlantic.com/internationa...

It’s amazing the difference between how some Republicans speak 5 minutes after their political careers are over compared to the time when they wanted the cult leader to love them.

MacFarlane: I'm filling a notebook with misinformation spreading about January 6th today. The idea that these cases were wrongful, no case was overturned, not a one on appeal. And lots of people appealed. They had a 100% success rate for juries at trial.

There is not a single insurrectionists MFer who beat a cop that should get a penny of our money. Not one. And the people making this decision will all be appointed by Blanche and will meet in secret. This is an impeachable offense by Blanche.

Two men have been charged after an explosive device was thrown from a pickup truck and detonated near a Pennsylvania church serving as a polling place during the state’s primary election. A search of the truck found 17 homemade “M-type” explosive devices. bnonews.com/index.php/20...

“.. What we are talking about is nothing short of the sitting president of the United States looting from the Treasury for his own gain,” she said. @financialtimes.com www.ft.com/content/5733...

Probably because he pays nothing in taxes now.

Friends, I’ve been around politics for over 50 years. I’ve never seen anything as brazenly crooked and corrupt as what Trump and his cronies did today.
