Tucker Carlson Says He Is ‘Tormented’ by His Past Support for Trump

Noooooothing to do with running for president in 2028, I'm sure. Noooooo. Totally sincere.

Trump tells Iran to sign deal with US or ‘the whole country is going to get blown up’ (The Independent) President Donald Trump issued a threat to Iran’s government early Sunday morning, writing on Truth Social that it would be his “honor” to direct the U.S. mil...

Notice the pattern here? He only threatens genocide on Sundays.

11 Democrats Vote to Kill Bills Blocking Arms Sales to Israel Senate Democrats refused to back a resolution by Senator Bernie Sanders to block U.S. weapons sales to Israel.

Just called my two senators, @schumer.senate.gov & @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social, to express my disappointment with them over voting against @sanders.senate.gov's bill to block more arms sales to #Israel. This is among the reasons some claim "both parties are the same".

Vance Says the Pope Should Be More Careful When Talking About Theology

How dare the pontiff pontificate!

Virginia joins a national effort to ensure only popular vote winners become president With Virginia on board, the National Popular Vote Compact is now enacted in states worth 222 electoral votes. Here's what that means.

I guarantee this will not get mainstream media coverage, but it is a very big deal. One step closer to casting the anachronistic Electoral College to the dustbin of history.

Middle East crisis live: Trump says US will blockade the strait of Hormuz immediately President makes claim in lengthy Truth Social post after talks in Pakistan fail to secure a deal

Get ready for republi-cons to start defending high gas prices as "patriotic".

So they spent a month successfully pushing the #Epsteinfiles from the headlines by starting a war only to re-introduce the Epstein files to headlines.

Mentally Incompetent People Should Not Have the Nuclear Codes This should not be a partisan issue. It’s serious. The current president of the United States is mentally ill, and mentally ill people should definitely not be given access to the nuclear codes.

I wrote this almost a year ago. Had no idea it would be so prescient at the moment. #25thAmendment

The Daily Cost of War is Proving What We Could Have Instead For what it costs to "bomb Iran back to the Stone Age," we could be providing paid family leave, a national healthcare system, and eliminate homelessness. Instead, we choose destruction and death.

What to Know About the ‘Massive’ Military Bunker Beneath Trump’s Ballroom

Preparing for nuclear confrontation perhaps? Or maybe protests after he invokes the Insurrection Act?

Comparing a philandering convicted felon to Jesus during holy week. Well played, evangelicals.

But he told us he only (f)hires the best!

White House Accidentally Uploads Quite a Damning Trump Speech (The New Republic) The White House mistakenly uploaded Donald Trump’s remarks at an Easter lunch, which was supposed to be closed to the press, to YouTube Wednesday, before rea...

Whoops!

So the point is he deserves brownie points for having the quickest war?

He never said "regime change"? Then why are we going to "bomb them back into the stone age"?

He's trying to pack everything in like 100 lbs of shit in a three-lbs bag.

"Cherish it" means "DIY" apparently.

This sounds like a greatest hits album of one-hit wonders.

"Short-term" rise in gas prices has nothing to do with the war? Really? What were prices before?

If I wanted to get drunk, I would take a shot every time he says, "Like no one's ever seen before" or some derivation thereof.

Has anyone considered that whatever comes out of tonight's "important address from the White House" will be one stupid April fool's joke?

Trump to address nation on Iran war. And, SCOTUS considers birthright citizenship Trump is set to address the nation after saying the U.S. will withdraw from Iran in 2-3 weeks. And, the president will be at the Supreme Court today as arguments on birthright citizenship begin.

If he thinks our withdrawal is going to solve the problem closing the Strait of Hormuz caused, he's wrong. It won't lower gas prices. He's just walked into a china shop, broke everything, & decided to leave everything for everyone else to clean up.
