Iranian response to Israeli attack on nuclear facilities now underway. 200 drones launched. 9 hours time to target. Next wave cruise missiles 2 hours fight time. Final launch ballistic missiles 12 minutes to impact.

Raskin: We even have the right to call the president deranged for crashing our economy, destroying $6 trillion of wealth and turning our 401(k) Into a 201 (K). And the press has the right to call the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of Mexico.

American economic policy:

Trump has destroyed our economic and security integration with Canada in two months. Arrogance. Stupidity. Absurd. This will take a decade to repair. Mini-Mussolini.

This is more important than you realize. Bluesky doesn’t downgrade links. Which means news sites will get more traffic from here than other sites. Which gives them economic reasons to post here first.

Mark Cuban@mcuban.bsky.social

These are e most important #s for the Dems. They should be tracking all local media and influencers in these states and reposting it everywhere The economic pain tariffs can indlict on red states need to be talked about more than anything else right now. It will flip voters.

Trump to Require Registration of Some Canadian Visitors www.bloomberg.com/news/article... This is an incredible and insulting Trump stupidity. Combined with massive and shifting tariffs it treats Canada as a hostile state.

Laughter the appropriate response. Embarrassing. Stupid. Illegal. Not going to happen. Politically strange and alarming.

Trump is reorienting America’s moral compass— Fareed Zaharia. — Trump has caused the US to lose our moral compass after 250 years of trying (sometimes unsuccessfully) to support freedom and democracy. Poor Ukraine. Our global allies are stunned.

Unlike Donald Trump and Russia, Ronald Reagan never shrank from telling the truth about the Soviet Union. —- (The US joins Russia, China, North Korea in a shameful UN vote denying Russian aggression against Ukraine. SHAMEFUL.)

Adam Kinzinger@adamkinzinger.substack.com

To the @GOP senators and Congressmen who claim to support Ukraine, you do have some power… if you’re unwilling to exercise it then don’t pretend to care about your country more than your political career:

Hope Matters@wesurvivetogether.bsky.social

Point taken. But isn't that bc Trump's a scammer? It's a lot easier to sell a fantasy, especially if you wrap it in promises of riches and self-righteous vengeance. As well as promise fake solutions to problems that don't exist or that he created. Not sure if being more like Trump is the answer?!

Mark Cuban@mcuban.bsky.social

Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important Invite all media. Including RW podcasters. @spaces Flood the zone Call it a Day Of Transparency

Trump disrespecting everybody

This proposal for the US to own Gaza is not going to happen. It’s not serious. It’s comical. Egypt and Jordan aren’t going to take in 2.4 million Palestinians. Developers aren’t going to front $50 Billion to create a Riviera. The US Armed Forces aren’t going to muscle Hamas out.

This is a brand new type of H5N1 virus activity. My description of over 40 million migratory waterfowl and their poop blowing in the wind with H5N1 virus attached isn't appealing but it is exactly what is happening and we're going to see more human cases related to that.

Shameful DOD action against former JCS Chair Mark Milley. 44 years of distinguished service in war and peace. He defended the Constitution. Now facing lawless retribution.

Mark Cuban@mcuban.bsky.social

PROP - PR Over Policy. Don't confuse them. He is flooding the zone. He knows that media will cover everything he does. Getting people upset. Which helps give him more coverage of the upset people. All just talking about him. Dems need to be strategic.

I'm not an AI expert. But IMO, the biggest take away is that our biggest AI companies tried to make competition about how much money they could spend. Locking out others. Deepseek turned that upside down. Which could open the door to many smarter, more entrepreneurial competitors
