Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."
Cruelty, stupidity, and hubris. Not a great combo.
Everyone with a platform should be screaming that Trump is unfit to be commander-in-chief. www.wsj.com/politics/nat... gift link
Zuckerberg has been an open and strident opponent of personal privacy from the very beginning. It’s not like he’s been hiding that.
PAT RYAN: 'Does the US want to be the policeman of the Middle East getting nothing but spending precious lives & trillions.' Rng a bell?
COLBY: Defer to you
R: That was Trump. How about this - 'we simply cannot afford to get enmeshed in a Middle East war'
C: Defer to you
R: That was actually you
DHS funding runs out today. That means we have real leverage in this fight since a funding bill can’t pass without Democratic votes. Call your Members of Congress and demand they reject any bill that doesn’t stop ICE and CBP terror.

This ad should concern Susan Collins.
If my followers have been inspired by the fierce resistance the Twin Cities has put up to ICE, you should make it a point to take a trip here (April through October 😬), enjoy the wonderful things MN has to offer and support our small businesses. It continues to be a really tough time for them.
The brain drain will be real as the rest of the world reacts to us as an ever increasing threat. This doesn’t bode well for US tech companies. I imagine we’ll see an increase in EU alternatives, maybe even using government grants to make solutions available as OSS.
There’s just no world where we lose representation, isolate ourselves, increase poverty, create a right wing oligarchy, shrink the middle class, completely divest in various aspects of diplomacy, science, and education, and still have the ability to influence the world in a positive way.
If I were to create a plan where my ultimate goal was the collapse of the US economy and take us out as the leading global superpower, it would look a lot like our current trajectory.
at some point I think it might be nice if we developed a cultural immunity to treating the random, unimportant outbursts of attention-seeking dullards as news
Emerging from his viewing of the UNRELEASED Epstein case files at Justice Dept, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) says:
"The Dept of Justice has been in a cover-up mode for months... trying to sweep the entire thing under the rug"
I hope Dems begin to see that moderate or progressive, AIPAC is not our friend.
They endorse January 6th insurrectionists. Yet if you so much as suggest the US uphold its own Leahy laws, no matter your record, they will work against you.
I am not going to repost the vile and racist image that Trump posted last night of President & First Lady Obama because it is beyond disgusting. Trump is a vile racist as is every Republican that continues to support him. I don’t want to hear mumbling from Mike Johnson or stoic silence from Thune.
BREAKING: The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez.
Corruption, plain and simple.
Steve Witkoff, David Sacks, and Howard Lutnick must testify in front of Congress.
And Congress needs to grow a spine and put a stop to Trump’s crypto corruption.
Note from the editors: ProPublica is publishing the names of the two federal immigration agents involved in the fatal shooting of Minnesota protester Alex Pretti. We believe there are few investigations that deserve more sunlight and public scrutiny than this one, in which two masked agents fired 10 shots at Pretti as he lay on the ground after being pepper-sprayed. The Department of Justice said it is investigating the incident, but the names of the two agents have been withheld from Congress and from state and local law enforcement. The policy of shielding officers’ identities, particularly after a public shooting, is a stark departure from standard law enforcement protocols, according to lawmakers, state attorneys general and former federal officials. Such secrecy, in our view, deprives the public of the most fundamental tool for accountability.
A note from our editors:
Musk has been spamming crap about SpaceX and Grok all day but now every single reply to any of his posts is someone calling him a pedophile. the stage has been set for something historic
Senators and staffers will swear to you up and down they can’t do hardcore obstruction or that they tried once and no one cared.
In reality, they can, but it’s hard work and if they’re successful Republicans might change the rules on them to which I say, cool, make them do that.
WATCH - “You SHOULD sue!”
@LindseyGrahamSC pathetically defends Trump’s attempt to steal $10 Billion from taxpayers. (Because he’s trying to do the same thing over the 1/6 investigation)
Technically Elon is right, because the article speculated about a trip to Epstein's island in December 2014 when the emails show he went in December 2013.
You know, five years after Epstein pleaded guilty to charges of procuring a child for prostitution.
Elon Musk chatting it up with his friend Jeffrey Epstein five years after he was convicted for child sex crimes 👍
Uhhhh this file magically disappeared from the dump after being up for a while apparently
Or how about this headline — “American citizen arrested without cause after exercising his Constitutional rights.” Very important that government propaganda not become the default framing.
Europe stood up to Trump over Greenland—and he backed down. Appeasement emboldens bullies. Confrontation constrains them. There’s a lesson here for Europe and for America.

Dear Democrats: stop trying to compromise. It’s not working. Grow a spine, say fuck it, and take a stand. Don’t vote for ANYTHING. You need to bring this whole damn thing to a grinding halt.
These are all Black people. The regime is betting that you wont care Jamael & Trahern the way you care about Alex & Renée
This is the BEST explanation I have seen so far.
