A group of Ecuadorian fishermen survived a US drone strike, were detained at gunpoint, phones wiped, ship blown up, disappeared to El Salvador, then released without charge. “They knew we were fishermen. Even the Salvadorian authorities said things had been handled very badly.”

I had the opportunity to confront Pete Hegseth's bigoted spiritual mentor, Pastor Doug Wilson, and call him out on his history of hate, his misreading of the Bible, his hijacking of Jesus, and his cosplay Crusading.
It was worth it.
'Corruption Gala': Paramount CEO Hosting Honorary Dinner for Trump While Trying to Ram Through Megamerger www.commondreams.org/news/ellison...
🧵The Epstein files show Warsh and his wife Jane Lauder heir to the Estée Lauder fortune appeared on a guest list for a St. Barths Christmas party in 2010 organized by Epstein. They also appeared on a dinner guest list that included Epstein, Trump and Melania.
Dan Abrams argued on his radio show Monday that FBI Director Kash Patel won’t get a single penny from the $250 million defamation lawsuit he filed against The Atlantic, days after the outlet reported he had “alarmed colleagues with episodes of excessive drinking and unexplained absences.”
If the joint chiefs don’t trust Trump to be in the war room…
Why is he still President?
@housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov need to take it to their floors and demand Trump’s removal. This country is on the verge of collapse.
We will not survive Trump. #25th @rokhanna.bsky.social
Kevin Warsh just lost me. He argues he's going to be an independent Fed Chair, but refuses to acknowledge that Trump lost the 2020 election. If you can't state simple facts when you're in the political spotlight, you aren't independent. You're a coward.
A group of peace-loving, resolutely anti-war U.S. veterans and military family members marched into the Capitol Hill office building in Washington, D.C., to protest U.S. war policies toward Iran, and were subsequently detained by police.

Elizabeth Warren nails Warsh right between the eyes: if you're tough and independent, did Donald Trump lose the election in 2020?
Warsh refused to answer, dances around the question. Won't matter to Republicans, but could raise questions in the markets about subservience.
He only cared about ONE thing...how it looked on TV. Enough has been said regarding the impossible healing job...not enough said about the depravity it takes to kill your followers to make good television.
Pretty much every major media organization missed a golden opportunity when preparing their stories about Kash Patel's ridiculous lawsuit against The Atlantic. A much more direct headline/photo combo would have been:
Well, at least the BBC is covering this.
I'm not even a Christian, but it is quite bizarre to realize that the evangelical-backed MAGA & Zionist movements have produced some of the most irreligious attacks on Christianity in my lifetime!
Why isn’t anyone talking about how when Trump was talking to the Press on Air Force One a few days ago about the Save act he let it slip that to Vote you have to be born here in the United States of America! He didn’t say you have to be a Citizen either! This is their plan! 🤬
Kash Patel is suing The Atlantic for $250K for reporting on his excessive drinking and erratic behavior. He has zero chance of winning, and I guarantee he’ll drop it before discovery. It’s all about getting the headline. Classic Trump move.
SCOOP --> Paramount, Meta, and X are refusing to say what happened to their huge contributions to Trump's presidential library after Sen Elizabeth Warren raised questions about its fund getting dissolved. Ds say tens of millions remain unaccounted for.

📌MEDIA: Stop calling Jared Kushner a "high-level negotiator." He's a damn thief operating in his repulsive family's best interests not ours.

For someone who claims to have a lifelong aversion to alcohol, Trump sure does like to surround himself with drunks.

White House Leak Reveals Trump Booted From Briefing After Hours-Long Freakout www.thedailybeast.com/white-house-... via @thedailybeast
6 days after Trump made 13 celebratory posts in a hour claiming that Iran surrendered to all his demands and the war is over, he’s back threatening to blow up power plants and bridges.
“They wanted to close up the strait again…as they've been doing for years,” Trump said Saturday. Of course Iran hasn't been closing the Strait of Hormuz "for years." Quite the contrary. The Strait is closed because of Trump's war. It's an indictment of his policy, and so he lies about the history.
The ICE Agent That Trump Can't Pardon❗️
