Donald Trump wants to give himself the Medal of Honor?

For what?

A failed war in Iran?

He’s absolutely insufferable.

Some OSINT accounts report that Israeli jets flew over Syria about an hour ago heading towards Iran.

Iran claims to have attacked U.S. ships after Trump and Kegbreath bombed an oil tanker.

Oil prices are spiking again.

This war is still a disaster

Mamdani: "What are we fighting for?. When you look back at the history books of our party, 100 years ago we had a very clear vision of what we were fighting for. It's sad that for too many Americans, when they want to look for ambition in the Democratic Party, then have to turn to a history book."

Alt text: Screenshot of a post on X (formerly Twitter) by Abdulkhaleq Abdulla (@Abdulkhaleq_UAE), with a verified badge. The post reads: “This is what I told Reuters today: The UAE no longer needs America to defend it, as it has proven during the Iranian aggression that it is capable of defending itself with distinction. What the UAE needs is to acquire only the best and latest weapons that America has. Therefore, it is time to think about closing the American bases, as they are a burden and not a strategic asset.” The post is labeled “Translated from Arabic by Grok” and shows a timestamp of 10:21 AM · 4/19/26 with 139K views.

NEW: UAE scholar Abdulkhaleq Abdulla says the UAE no longer needs U.S. protection, calling American bases a “burden, not a strategic asset” and suggesting they should be closed. The United States’ standing in the region has been obliterated.

@bsky.app a spaces would be nice but you can call it #skyedup or something 👊🏿

Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee with the President of Argentina, Javier Milei, and Benjamin Netanyahu:

"I don't know of any two world leaders on our planet that our president has more respect for, and more personal relationship with, than President Milei and Prime Minister Netanyahu."

🙄

Even Iran is calling it the “Epstein regime.”

🤣

The U.S. says Iran’s IRGC carried out at least three attacks on commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz today.

DO NOT STOP TALKING ABOUT THE EPSTEIN FILES

I love this timeline soooo much

Meanwhile on Twitter 😂

Just think about how much cheaper our groceries will be, once we get all that nuclear dust.

So many of our problems could be fixed by properly funding public education.

I love this so much.

Barack Obama sat down with Mayor Zohran Mamdani in a Bronx child care center, reading “Alone and Together,” a book about connection, community, and belonging to preschoolers.

For all those saying Justin Trudeau is too old to go to Coachella; Iggy Pop performed and he’s 79.

Let people live their lives.

Montana — yes, deep red Montana — has a plan to effectively neuter Citizens United.

No Supreme Court ruling or constitutional amendment needed.
