Jones: I've been told I'm too young to understand politics. Too young to understand why some neighborhoods get parks while others get police tape… But they never said I was too young to inherit the debt…. too young to inherit the consequences of decisions I never got to make

Western intelligence agencies have warned Europe’s defence bosses that Russia is stepping up efforts to assassinate them, prompting companies to increase personal security around their top executives ft.trib.al/vRLYPxh

The war in Afghanistan wasn’t doomed and wasn’t an overreaction — Bush lost a just and winnable war by invading Iraq instead of securing the country. www.slowboring.com/p/who-lost-a...

Canada will never forget.

Remember how I was talking about how the dildo of consequences seldom arrives lubed? This wank stain is fittin' to find out.

Does he have a sobriquet? Harald the Nice? The Cruel? The Diligent? The Skull-Breaker?

This is so bizarre. A politician telling you her vision for America is that you’ll have to work when you’re sick and die young, orphaning your kids. Please vote for @drannieandrews.com

At family dinner in Beijing and everyone wants to know about Epstein.

remember this?

Spain edited Trump out of its celebratory photo.

TRUMP DIARRHEA OUTBREAK: Cyclosporiasis cases are surging now across 40+ states, a severe diarrhea outbreak linked to contaminated produce. Reports indicate Trump admin CDC changes made Cyclospora surveillance optional and restructured the parasitic diseases division.

What Lindsey Graham did before Trump is irrelevant. What he’s done during Trump is what matters. He doesn’t get a pass because he was supportive of John McCain. He lost that pass when he began supporting Trump.

(1,2) The universe is speaking. Last week, it stepped in to kill the Trump 250. Last night, Trumps most vocal enabler Lindsey Graham died. Also Last week, it seems possible that the other enabler and the biggest destroyer of Democracy Mitch McConnell may have died.

It’s bad enough to lose. It’s worse to lose with dishonor.

In case you haven't seen this today.

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."

Forget about Hegseth. This is the real D-Day celebration right here.

This was shortly after she took Ken back and supported him during his impeachment trial where one of the charges was that someone his office was investigating got the case dropped after he remodeled Ken’s other mistresses’ kitchen. Ken started a new affair not long after.

Cuban is such a tool. He blows whatever way the wind blows.

Trump's coup is over. He controls congress, the executive branch, SCOTUS, the DOJ, the FBI, the military and the media. There is no one to hold him accountable for anything. We are still refusing to admit this as a country while he robs us blind and destroys democracy.

Andy for president.

Beshear: The president finally said something that was true. He said he does not care about the financial situation of the American people. And you know what? The way he governs shows it. The Trump economy is a failure. The only failure that rivals the Trump economy is Trump’s foreign policy.

Every once in a while he tells the truth.

Oh my god

Every so often, truth escapes Donald Trump's lips. This is true. Trump doesn't give a rat's ass about anyone's financial situation except his own and that of his cronies.

Here's another ad for Dems to play on repeat for the mid terms:

Perfect campaign ad for the upcoming Midterms. 👌

Trump cuts in front of Queen Camilla to shake some hands

Here are the 7 senate democrats who voted to continue sending bombs to Netanyahu. Richard Blumenthal (CT) Chris Coons (DE) Catherine Cortez Masto (NV) John Fetterman (PA) Kirsten Gillibrand (NY) Jackie Rosen (NV) Chuck Schumer (NY)

People will be closely studying how Hungary's opposition pulled off their win in such a pro-incumbent system. Important to note that the theme was corruption. Democrats need to get much better at calling out Trump's corruption.

Don't forget that Reform Ltd which is funded by billionaires wants tax cuts for the superrich and benefit cuts for the very poorest people "Still one of the best cartoons I've ever seen" via The Daily Scar

Well, I don’t see how this speech changes a thing. Pundits talking about Trump changing the narrative on the mid terms are so out of touch. Trump is unpopular and likely to stay so. He doesn’t really care. He plans to make sure the elections go his way.

REPUBLICAN Rep. Massie: “Trump should apologize to the Obamas.”

I think the ancients had it right. When the King dies, all his retainers and family should be slain and buried with him, to serve him in the afterlife.

We should just force them all to start working at 12 and the few who survive that long to work until 80. Think of what we could do!!! And for those who won’t comply? Siberia awaits!!!

BREAKING: Trump doesn’t support the 2nd Amendment.

I hope it all works out, and it definitely might, but this is a course of action with a lot of downside risk and very limited upside for the United States relative to what could have been achieved through diplomacy. www.slowboring.com/p/21-thought...

The idea that we can "easily" overthrow the regime in Iran is a fantasy of people that have never served. Afghanistan is back in the hands of the Taliban after 20 years of slaughter. Iraq still isn't peaceful. Libya is a war zone that's been in civil war since we dropped bombs. History is screaming!

Pretty remarkable finish to tonight's 60 Minutes episode

There we go.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.
