My cousin Katie....

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

"When Trump plucked Katie Zacharia from obscurity & appointed her as his new press sec, he called her 'an attorney.' This is also how Zacharia describes herself. But Popular Information searched for evidence in all 50 states, plus DC, that she was admitted to practice law anywhere — & found none."

The time has come to update the UN Charter and strip any nation's ability to veto any and all propositions at all councils and the General Assembly. It has become painfully clear that the USA has lost its moral compass.

“Remember, when Trump took over we were at the edge of the precipice. Now we have taken a step forward “

WELKER: Since Trump took office, inflation is up, gas prices are up, tariffs have cost American households nearly $2,000. Many Americans say they just aren't feeling it. Is there a disconnect? MIKE JOHNSON: No. Remember that when President Took over the economy was in shambles

Considering that 65%+ of "us" are likely supportive of "they", the ratio just might be the other way around.

EISEN: Markets are wondering if we're in tit for tat trade war w/Canada BESSENT: I don't think you can be in a tit for tat with someone who's 13 times larger than you E: They say they're doing ok B: What else are they gonna say? What are they gonna do? Take their 2 submarines & sic them on us?

“And next, I’m renaming the falls to Trump Falls. “

Trump on Canada: "We're taking them on ... you saw the Lake Ontario. People though I was kidding, but maybe I wasn't. Because the last one you saw was the Gulf of Mexico. It's Gulf of America. So now we have a gulf and a lake. It's very simple ... it's time to teach Canada you can't do this anymore"

I guess Obama and Biden are in the clear now. It would have made more sense to say I ran, instead of Iran, which is what congressional republicans do all the time. They run from owning any consequences to their actions.

NEWSMAX: A new poll shows approval for the war with Iran has fallen to its lowest level at just 31%. Are you concerned about this hurting Republicans? REP. SCOTT PERRY: This isn't the president's fault. It's not America's fault. This is Iran's fault.

Ok I call this full blown bullshit as far as Colombia is concerned. Come on guys. I’m a fierce anti-maga/trump and centrist Democrat. Yes the premise about interventions may be valid, the abhorrent fishing boats campaign but not the current escalation in Colombia.

Phil Mandelbaum@philmandelbaum.bsky.social

It's not just fishing boats. US-led military interventions are escalating across Latin America. And it’s nothing new. The US has conducted nearly 400 foreign military interventions since 1776 — or, one every seven months, for 250 years. crushingcolonialism.org/abya-yala-un...

I'm confused. Did they swap planes in Turkey or did they swap a turkey from airplanes?

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

NEWSMAX: The media is freaking out over the president swapping planes in Turkey. Some are saying journalists' lives were put in danger. What's the White House's reaction? KUSH DESAI: Leave it to the mainstream media to try to make the story about themselves

"Workers at a facility that provides in-flight meals to some of the nation’s busiest airports said in a complaint that they had been exposed to cockroaches, maggots and mold." NYT. And then added... "but nothing prepared us for the big rat we found in Turkey"

"I can't believe he did this to me!" I voted for him to deport the good-for-nothing roofers and carpenters, not my hot, pet-loving girlfriend, who is not even Mexican." FAFO. ...and that's the problem. I bet the girlfriend was more surprised than he was, at being arrested.

Ron Filipkowski@ronfilipkowski.bsky.social

75 year old lifelong Republican and Trump voter says he no longer supports Trump after ICE arrested his 45 year old Venezuelan girlfriend.

Should CNN have stopped scaring people before or after the millionth death? Oh right, nobody died of Covid. That was all fake news.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

"You were scaring people. That was the job of CNN" -- RFK Jr attacks Dana Bash over her claim that the covid vaccine worked. Bash ends up telling him to stop and tries to pivot to measles.

Anyone who’s having a bad day should take comfort in the fact that by recognizing a bad day they have experienced a good day… just work on making the next one a great day. Same can be said about a bad four years. Work on making the next four or eight to your liking.

Landing back in the USA after a trip overseas. Trepidation, anxiety, hit me at once. It’s not the comfort feeling of coming home but the rage of a paradise of democracy in shambles. Yet I’m here, present, ready to fight for my convictions.

Assuming that is true, which is not, how’s that any different than you and the Christian right are very much doing, imposing your religious beliefs on everyone? Ignorant religious fanatics is what your ancestors coming to America were trying to leave behind.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Mike Johnson suggest birthright citizens like US Men's National Team leading scorer Folarin Balogun are trying to "transplant Sharia Law" into the country

Now I’m sure Trump wants to take credit with “his” candidate de la Espriella in the Colombian elections. Sure he endorsed him but given the complexity of issues in Colombia, de la Espriella was more of a defensive vote against a threat against democracy and subversive forces. Good, not best

Where are the bible zealot MAGA Christians who would otherwise denounce the desecration of the people’s house?

Christopher Webb@cwebbonline.com

Sponsors like Bud Light, Crypto .com, Polymarket, and Dodge get logo placement. The Trump family gets commemorative coin sales. The People’s House gets turned into a marketing hot spot.

Trump's MO has always been the same.... make a risky, impulsive bet (ie. build a casino) with other people's money (ie. Deutsche Bank loans) with overinflated collateral (ie. convicted felon). His Iran war actions follow this pattern. Our ex allies are left holding a defective asset. Who knew??

Thank you Mr Soros for sponsoring my travel to Chicago. By the way, the Zelle did not come through. Could you try Venmo? As you instructed we have expanded the protest to include No Kings in Media. I hope you are pleased.

Under which scenario would you have foreseen a western foreign country banning sales of war material to the US??... well, Switzerland just did and rightly so...

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Trump: "Without USA, NATO IS A PAPER TIGER! Now that the fight is Militarily WON, with very little danger for them, they complain about high oil prices they are forced to pay, but don’t want to help open the Strait of Hormuz. So easy for them to do, with so little risk. COWARDS, & we will REMEMBER!"

Who are we kidding pretending the USA is still exceptional to criticize other's behaviors while this very same week we killed two protesters in cold blood, injured hundreds, and jailed babies. NYT... wake up! 🤯

I am confused. Is this Geronimo, Sitting Bull or Red Cloud talking? Or maybe the Mayans or Aztecs? No? Or maybe it is Harriet Tubman or Frederick Douglass talking about how their people “built this nation on blood, sweat, and the unyielding love of freedom”?
