Let me see if I understand this . . . 1. The U.S. is at war with Iran. 2. Russia is helping Iran in that war. 3. The U.S. is now giving Russia money that it can use to help Iran destroy U.S. bases and kill U.S. troops. Donald is smart & patriotic like that.

The first Russian diesel cargo heading for the US left St Petersburg on September 22, two weeks *before* Trump announced the deal with Putin, Windward reports. The Greek-flagged tanker Minerva Zen carrying 275,000 barrels of diesel/gasoil is due at the US East Coast around 11–12 October.

I like that he's admitting what has been obvious for decades: to Republicans, "socialism" or "communism" basically means "whatever I hate." It's been an extraordinarily successful bit of propaganda too. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Q: How do you define socialism personally? JD VANCE: I think in reality what it actually means in the American context is you want to replace American workers with foreigners workers, and you want boys to play in girls' sports

it's such a perfect example of what is actually alito's hallmark as a justice, shoddy, sub-undergraduate thinking dressed up with five dollar words.

In this Ohio diner, it was a tradition: a few beers, a couple hours of football on the tube, then over to the trailer park to meet a $140 prostitute. But now the woke mob is taking all of that away.

Once again, the Founders anticipated the possibility of a tyrannical president. What they didn’t anticipate is a majority of the members of Congress choosing subservience—not that they’d all be good people, but most should have egos and ambition, enough to object if someone tried taking their power.

One of the most frustrating parts of Donald Trump is his ability to take any moment, anywhere and make it about Donald Trump. I’m sick of thinking about this fucking guy.

The thing you need to understand is that there are 2 (TWO) different method for amending the constitution 1) The process laid out in the constititon itself (conventions, or 2/3's of both houses followed by 3/4 of states ratifying) OR 2) find five votes on the Supreme Court.

Tom Emmer: "Minnesotans are so afraid that you're gonna call us a racist, you're gonna call us an Islamophobe. You know what? I'm done being even the least bit careful. Somalis don't assimilate. And if they don't assimilate, then they should go the hell back to where they came from."

Trump has lied about states that count slow. States that count fast. States that have little mail. States that are all mail. He invented reasons why Cruz didn’t beat him in Iowa, made up false claims about people being into New Hampshire—none of which were about a slow count.

At this rate, by next year the only actual majority opinion the Court drops will be a tense, singe sentence. "Because fuck you, that's why."

This is absolutely outrageous. SCOTUS reinstated Texas gerrymander 15 weeks before primary because they claimed it was too close to election to block it but now allowing Alabama to gerrymander one week before primary after trial court found map was intentionally discriminatory against Black voters

Rudy Giuliani, I'll always remember how you put the nypd counterterrorism office in the twin towers so you could be closer to you mistress so on 9/11 itself you had no place to coordinate a response, causing the deaths of hundreds of firefighters.

It’s hard to overstate how much of this moment is driven by people who got a taste of accountability and were very, very mad about it.

Matthew 6:5: “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others."

Leavitt begins the press briefing: "Could you hear our 'amen' in there? We just had a little loud prayer as a team. In this holy week, President Trump and the First Lady are joining in prayer with Christians celebrating the resurrection of our lord and savior, Jesus Christ."
