Itâs important to remember that the goal of lawsuits like the one brought by Kash Patel against the Atlantic isnât to win, itâs to cost the Atlantic as much money as possible only to drop the suit before discovery, and as red meat for the MAGA base by simply filing it.

Seems to me like Trump is desperately begging Iran to sign a replica of the Obama JCPOA he tore up. All for the low low price of thousands dead, global instability, high energy prices, and a toll on ships through the once-free strait of Hormuz.
Shoutout to The Atlantic reporters for publishing these massive scoops instead of waiting years to put them in a book.
JUST IN: Judge Amit Mehta (Obama/DC) opens door to deposition of Trump in #Jan6 civil lawsuits. Discovery against Trump on merits of cases could begin in May. Earlier: www.politico.com/news/2026/03...
As Trumpâs lies get more egregious (and repetitive) I have at least noticed fewer mouth-breathing bootlickers willing to defend him in my comments.
And the administration is leaking about how heâs hurting negotiations and how theyâre keeping him on the sidelines.
Iâll call that progress.
Any candidate that takes money from Palantir should not receive your vote.
Co-founder Joe Lonsdale is pouring millions into a PAC to buy off Democrats, especially in California.

Palantir put out the most cartoonishly evil statement possible. Theyâre so arrogant and self-confident they donât seem to believe their fascistic plans can be opposed.
We must get rid of Palantir altogether.

My new thing is that when someone asks me what I think about 2028, I ask them what they think about 2026. Because this November is the next election. Focus. There'll be plenty of time to talk about 2028 after we're done celebrating over washing Republicans out of Congress this November.
One of multiple parts of the Atlantic story that is one hundred percent true is President Trumpâs frustration that the MAGAfied feds arenât jailing nearly enough of his political enemies so u can read his words today in the context of liking his job title and wanting to keep it
In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.
This is a batshit crazy post.
Weâve also gone from:
- Vance is going
- no heâs not
- yes he is
In a period of 3 hours. Incoherent psychobabble.
The FBI Director, the DC US Attorney, and the Secretary of Defense walk into a bar.
Apparently like every day.
Trump called every reporter in the observable universe, who all dutifully repeated his updates about Iran, and all those updates have fallen apart in fewer than 36 hours.
How long will legacy media keep doing this?
The Incompetent American President has No Way Out of his MessâŠ.

Getting tired of legacy media ripping us off. What gives, @nytimes.com ?

Just because Caitlyn Jenner is an objectively horrible person doesnât mean itâs okay to deadname her. Please donât.
Jan Crawford @JanCBS X.com BREAKING: Justice Samuel Alito NOT retiring. Sources close to Justice Alito confirm the Fox News report that he has decided not to step down this year. In addition, sources close to Justice Thomas tell me he's not retiring. That indicates that this year, with the midterms on the horizon, Trump will not be making his 4th nomination to SCOTUS.
Huh.
Barely more than a decade ago, Florida proudly and with a bipartisan vote passed in-state tuition for undocumented immigrants who had been brought here as children and grew up in Florida. DeSantisâ Lieutenant Governor was actually a champion of the bill.
Things changed fast.
EXCLUSIVE: Attorneys for Rep Jamie Raskin are asking appeals court to halt Trump Admin effort to vacate convictions of Jan 6 seditious conspiracy defendants
Raskin is trying to serve as firewall as Justice Dept & defense join forces to vacate the cases
Anne Hathaway bought the rights to a novel about a tradwife influencer who wakes up in 1855 and has to actually live the life she's been selling online. The book is called Yesteryear. It came out 3 days ago. The film rights were already sold to Hathaway, who will produce and star.
Holy shit, I have NEVER been more excited for a movie.
ICE is not about immigration.
ICE is about normalizing a paramilitary force on peaceful streets.
Abolish ICE.
It's so funny to me that Trump pushed the GOP to extend FISA after bitching for years that it was used to "spy" on his campaign. Surveillance on thee but not on me! www.nytimes.com/2026/04/17/u...
I am disgusted with the one Democrat who voted for Trump's war. But, I am also disgusted with every Republican who voted for it. They are ALL traitors to this country.
On January 10, 2022, the Knicks played the San Antonio Spurs at the Garden. It was Pride night. Richards was there, attending with a friend. An 18-page report prepared by Eversole's Threat Management Group and reviewed by WIRED shows just how closely she was being monitored. 07:10:20 // CAM 0241 // scans her ticket to section 102, Row 8, Seat 5 07:11:14 // CAM 1434 // goes up terrace escalators on level 3 to level 6 concourse 07:12:52 // CAM AC10 // hugs usher Appendix A of the report has a screenshot of the embrace, with Richards circled in red. 08:08:58 // CAM 1093 // talking with F&B worker at the Draft Kings Bar 08:10:49 // CAM 0512 // pays for the drinks 08:31:19 // CAM 0485 // eating at a table It goes on and on. At 8:48 pm, camera 0489 spots another quick hug with an MSG âmembership experience executiveâ (there's a grainy photo in the report's Appendix N). Two minutes and two seconds later, the same camera captures her heading into the women's bathroom. Her exit is noted after precisely two minutes and five seconds.
The owner of MSG and the Knicks compiled this kind of second-by-second surveillance of a trans woman while they were in the arena. They're doing this at all venues owned by James Dolan of perceived enemies. Crazy, crazy shit.

I plan to keep relentlessly making the case for Trump's removal either through impeachment or the Twenty-Fifth Amendment.
Help give me the opportunity to do it in the halls of Congress:
