And then he said: “If you don’t open the Strait of Hormuz, an entire civilization will die tonight.”
So they opened it.
Then he blockaded it.
So they closed it again.
Now he’s demanding they reopen it… so he can close it again.

A tsunami of approximately 70 cm in height reached the coast of Iwate Prefecture in Japan. However, the threat of waves up to 3 meters remains for the northeastern regions.😱
Just a walk in the park.

Jeff Bezos' Washington Post editorial board endorsed Pam Bondi as a "qualified" and "serious" pick for Attorney General.
Nowhere in the endorsement did they mention that she's a former Amazon lobbyist.
Another reminder that billionaire control of our media is a threat to democracy.
Sunset over Camelback.

Cacti!
Remember all the screaming about Hunter Biden and Ukraine?
A peaceful beautiful day to be grateful.
250 years ago, we fought a war to get a King’s name off our laws. Now we’ve got a President trying to Sharpie his name onto our currency and brand the government like a hotel chain.
We didn’t trade a crown for a gold-plated ego. This is a Republic, not a franchise.
Dem leadership should be telling everyone that this is the talking point.
By refusing Oudone Lothirath permission to receiveve four out of five chemotherapy appointments while in ICE detention, ICE has given him what is essentially a death sentence. He will die from cancer imminently, just another ICE death in detention. www.startribune.com/how-ice-deta...
Instead of paying ICE to harass passengers at airports, we could be using the money to hire more air traffic controllers to keep them safe.
Imagine believing there are actual “ongoing talks with Iran”. This isn’t diplomacy, it’s just another day of Trump weaponizing the news cycle to jerk the markets around.
When the Japanese live translation goes silent because the translators are too stunned to repeat your Pearl Harbor “joke” to the Japanese PM, you’ve officially reached a new level of diplomatic failure.
Those seconds of silence were the most honest reaction of the day.
Blast from the past.

ICE abducted a US citizen when she came home from a trip to Turkey. Sundas "Sunny" Naqvi was born in Evanston, Illinois, and is being held in an ICE detention center.
ICE told her family they don’t know where she is. Her iPhone pings from within the ICE building. Protests are outside.

🔥 “This started as a pretext about immigration and fraud… it’s WELL beyond that now. It’s into your 2nd/4th/6th Amendments… We’re performing CPR on what may already be a corpse called the Constitution… Wake up. This isn’t just Minneapolis. It’s ALL of us.”

Alex was a good man who served his community before ICE invaded. He died at their hands, still serving his community.
I’m over this. Release the Epstein files. Bring them all down.
Donald Trump is leading a White House cover up of the Epstein Files. It is shameful that the DOJ has released only 1% of the files.
Nice!
