Beyond the missile strikes, in the far reaches of the internet, Tehran has unleashed a very different kind of army to sow fear, wreak havoc and hoover up intelligence. The only question is why they haven't launched a serious cyber attack . . . yet.

CBS turned their news operation into propaganda, kicked Colbert off the air for making too much trouble, and all that just to have Charles Barkley go on the air on one of their most-watched telecasts of the year and say this lmao

Donald Trump Truth Social Post: Blame the Democrats for the airport's mess. They want our country to do badly. They want our country to fail. They broke the already signed bill because they want to take care of criminals who enter our country illegally, rather than American citizens. Thank you to our great ICE patriots for helping. It makes a big difference. I may call up the National Guard for more help. President DJT.

Pulling National Guard members from their families, jobs, and communities to make a political statement is wrong, and doing so while refusing to pay TSA workers is indefensible.

El-Sayed: Look, you know, narcissism is the endgame of Donald Trump’s personality. We think about it as having too much ego, but it’s actually having too little. His ego has become a black hole—nothing can satiate him. He reaches for power and money and fame and glory, and never gets enough.

If you’re seeing ICE agents in airports, take a photo or video and drop them here in the comments.

People deserve to know what’s happening in real time. No spin. No hiding.
