Trump and Republicans are straight up Nazis. These planes are the equivalent to the boxcars in World War Two. Rape, torture, child abuse… ICE is made up of rednecks, racists, skinheads, Jan 6ers, Proud Boys and ex-cops. But all of them can now just be called Nazis. What a heinous country.

Jürgen Nauditt 🇩🇪🇺🇦 @jurgen_nauditt · 3h Trump, the biggest failed strategist in US history, has plunged America into a strategic catastrophe. During his self-proclaimed “victory parade” against Iran, he squandered at least 45% of the US's precision-guided missile arsenal in just seven weeks—including half of all THAAD missiles and nearly 50% of Patriot interceptor missiles. This isn't some fake news blog reporting this, but CNN, citing a CSIS analysis and internal Pentagon data. The result? An “imminent risk” of munitions depletion should a real conflict erupt in the coming years—for example, with China. Trump has ruined the US defense capability for years to come. And for what? For nothing. No regime change in Iran. No destroyed nuclear program. No strategic breakthrough. Just a shaky ceasefire that gives the mullahs time to rearm while America stands naked. Trump, the great “Art of the Deal” master, has once again only produced hot air – and in doing so, burned through the most expensive and scarce weapons in the USA like a pubescent boy with fireworks.

This seems bad.

And I'm pretty sure our enemies are paying attention.

Keith’s Breaking News: a Government Portal has been set up to Pay back all companies that Paid Trump’s Illegal Tariffs.

AOC says something with her hands...

A hundred years ago, the U.S. had a nationwide network of short-line railroads that connected most urban and rural communities. By the 1940s, most of it had been dismantled ... by the barons of the auto and oil industries. 😑

Palantir's summary of CEO Alexander Karp's manifesto is generating buzz. Read the 22 bullet points. Among the 22 points summarizing Palantir CEO Alex Karp's manifesto is the belief that the US should consider reinstating the military draft.

This company is out of control and its CEO appears in nearly every public appearance to be disturbed in some way.

There are companies our government should have nothing to do with anymore—e.g., those associated with Elon Musk—and Palantir is on that list.

Melania's Immigration Witness, Paolo Zampelli, Asked to Get His Baby Mama Deported - emptywheel Even as Melania rushed to the cameras to insist the story of how she first met Donald Trump was true, the now-deported baby mama of her witness to that claim, Paolo Zampelli, has been making a stink.

We can be fairly certain Melania's statement last night was at least partly an attempt to stave off Amenda Ungaro's claims bc AFTER she made it, Paolo Zampolli told the Daily Mail he would back her story under oath.

15 people have died in ICE custody JUST THIS YEAR.

That is 1 death a week.

Under this regime, 2026 is set to be the deadliest year for ICE detention EVER.

The need for guardrails and meaningful oversight could not be more urgent.

Love that Corgi 🤣🐶

“You will obey me while I lead you

And eat the garbage that I feed you

Until the day that we don't need you

Don't go for help, no one will heed you

Your mind is totally controlled

It has been stuffed into my mold

And you will do as you are told

Until the rights to you are sold”

Frank Zappa

if only we’d taxed the super rich, they wouldn’t have been able to buy our government and kill us 😀

There are roughly 2,000 ships stuck in the Persian Gulf with more than 20,000 seafarers on them, according to the International Maritime Organization. Most have been stuck on board more than a month, because fewer than 200 ships have managed to slip through the Strait of Hormuz. In normal times, 20% of the world’s oil flows through the narrow waterway to global markets, along with critical supplies of natural gas, fertilizer and other cargo shipments. It’s unclear when the vital shipping lane will get back to normal. Fresh vegetables and freshwater are running out on many ships, so the sailors are using social media and very-high-frequency marine radios to share survival tips and tactics. Some Chinese crew members have filmed themselves collecting condensate from air-conditioning units to shower and wash laundry. Others have taken to fishing over the side of their tankers, catching tuna, squid and largehead hairtail to cook.

WSJ has a piece on the merchant sailors stuck aboard ships inside Hormuz. There are 20,000 of them (many from less privileged nationalities), effectively held hostage and running out of food.

German MAGA used to send their untermenschen to Poland

This is NOT DEPORTATION.

People BEING sent to a country where they are not citizens is RENDITIONING.

THE agreement where those humans are exploited for profit is HUMAN TRAFFICKING BY THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION

Yes, the USA 🇺🇸 is a
MODERN-DAY SLAVER COUNTRY 🔥😈

Let that sink in for a second 💡

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is a reminder that most of the bench has never seen the inside of a trial court or a public defender’s office.

She’s schooling folks how this actually works.

Millions of preterm births and thousands of infant deaths linked to plastic chemical | CNN A chemical used in toys and consumer products is linked to thousands of infant deaths and millions of preterm births worldwide, a new study found.

Some Kanye math for y’all:

If 9 Nazis are sitting at a table and you join them—there’s 10 Nazis at the table.

If one Nazi throws a concert at SoFi and you attend—congrats, you broke the American record for Nazi rally attendance previously held by the “Pro American” rally at MSG in 1934.

Fuck off.

Out of the mouth of an immigrant.
