Yes indeed ..the bird understands water displacement
Friday night Tequila Tweet: Here’s the sad, fucking truth: Iran’s leadership is more believable & more trustworthy than the President of the United States. Hey America, that’s the price we pay for electing a president who lies as he breathes. We. Can’t. Believe. A. Fucking. Thing. Trump. Says.
In a big victory for customers across the nation, a court has stopped Nexstar’s merger with Tegna as our lawsuit continues.
This win ensures local news remains independent and fees don’t climb higher.
I'll keep fighting to enforce the law and protect the future of local TV.
If only they were actually missing.
An image shows Donald Trump at a podium with a headline about NO TAX ON TIPS. Above the photo, text quotes Trump saying the country was an embarrassment a year ago. Below, bold text mocks Trump for being president a year ago.

Japanese anti-war group starts new campaign at Shinjuku Station, Tokyo.
”We want world peace! Fuck Trump!"
Question: “Now that you’ve met with him -Trump-, you’ve spoken with him multiple times, do you still think he’s a fascist?”
Zohran Mamdani: “Yes”
Question: “And do you tell him that?”
Zohran Mamdani: “Yes”
Will voters EVER understand the big lie about "scary democratic (small D) socialist policies?!" Bernie has told us for decades, and Mamdani is showing us now. We can instantly fund a WAR but have TO DEBATE for decades about healthcare for all - GEEZUS!
They've LIED TO US FOR PROFIT for decades.
They said they wouldn't, and now they're hoping we don't notice.
To the people complaining these sex abuse cases have created a world where men now have to think 10 times before they touch a woman.
Yes, that's the point.
It's called consent. Welcome to human decency.
Unbelievable corruption right in front of our faces.
i think folks might be unfamiliar with "the pharisees", so let's make it clear: he's saying the jews run the press, and that they are conspiring to undermine the military. it's not just antisemitism, it's indistinguishable from nazism.
There is no amount of money, oil, or gold that is worth more than having bees, trees, and clean water.
Barely more than a decade ago, Florida proudly and with a bipartisan vote passed in-state tuition for undocumented immigrants who had been brought here as children and grew up in Florida. DeSantis’ Lieutenant Governor was actually a champion of the bill.
Things changed fast.
A federal judge in Illinois today ruled that the Trump administration improperly coerced Facebook and Apple to remove ICE-tracking apps in violation of the First Amendment. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
📌NPR has received two of the largest gifts in the public media network's existence, totaling $113 million.
This is something called a "good news" story.
I'd die without NPR, I really would.
"Those taxes you just paid? The money is going straight into Trump's pocket" would be good messaging
“All we have to fear, is fear itself”
“Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall”
“What the hell is a corner store?”
Great Presidential quotes of our time
Rep Justin Jones made a statement entrance, walking into the Tennessee legislature with an"Abolish ICE" flag. No subtlety. No backing down.🔥🔥
Trump just wrapped up a disastrous speech at a TPUSA event.
He started by lying about a supposed deal with Iran, claiming, “We have now secured the Strait of Hormuz. It is ours.” He also said the U.S. and Iran would be excavating nuclear sites together to collect “nuclear dust.” None of it is true.
JUST IN: Two days after saying the U.S. would NOT renew sanctions waivers on Russian or Iranian oil, Bessent’s Treasury quietly extended a license allowing Russian oil transactions for another month.
that beep beep beep sound you hear is the president and his family backing a truck up to the US treasury...

POLITICO: "California judge restricts offshore oil company despite Trump administration intervention"
Donald Trump and Big Oil's illegal ploy to restart the Sable oil pipeline in Santa Barbara County was just REJECTED.
Launching a reckless war with Iran and creating a global oil crisis doesn't suddenly allow these guys to break the law.
🚨 EXCLUSIVE: The Trump administration is blocking key appointments to a federal committee that sets standards for voting machines — sidelining experts and leaving critical election safeguards at risk.
Iran’s IRGC Says It Will Decide Who Crosses Hormuz Amid Divisions in Regime By Benoit Faucon The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said it would decide which vessels are allowed to cross the Strait of Hormuz despite Iranian pledges that the waterway has been unblocked, in a sign the regime is divided over giving up its control of the critical oil conduit. “Passage is only possible with the permission of the IRGC Navy,” the paramilitary force said in a statement carried by state media. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said earlier Friday on X that Hormuz was fully open following a cease-fire in Lebanon. Media affiliated with IRGC, which engineered Iran’s de facto closure of the maritime waterway, have attacked Araghchi’s announcement. The IRGC-affiliated news agency Tasnim warned the opening “will be considered null in case the alleged maritime U.S. blockade continues.” Tasnim criticized Araghchi’s post for “a complete lack of tact in information dissemination.” Fars, another IRGC news agency, said that “following the unexpected tweet from the Foreign Minister about the liberation of the Strait of Hormuz, Iranian society has been plunged into an atmosphere of confusion.” Saeid Golkar, an expert in Iran’s security services at the University of Tennessee in Chattanooga, said the death of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei had left Iran’s regime divided. “Because the main arbitrator is gone, the fight between different factions has started,” he said.
44 min ago Iran Rejects Claim It Would Transfer Enriched Uranium to U.S. By Saleh al-Batati Iran said Friday it won’t send its stockpile of enriched uranium abroad, pushing back on remarks by President Trump that Tehran had agreed to hand it over. Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei said the material wouldn't be transferred “anywhere,” according to state media, underscoring Iran’s long-standing position on retaining control over its nuclear assets. “Just as Iran’s soil is important and sacred to us, so too is enriched uranium,” Baghaei said, adding that sending the material to the U.S. “was never an option on the table.” He also dismissed reports of a potential permanent halt to enrichment, describing them as part of a media campaign aimed at influencing negotiators and shaping the course of the talks.
Trump says the Strait of Hormuz is fully open; but the IRGC says no, they get to decide who passes through.
Trump says Iran has agreed to turn over its uranium; and Iran says no, it won't.

The DoD spent over $93 billion in a single month, a record. That included $6.9M on lobster tails, $2M on king crab, $15.1M on ribeye, $1M on salmon, $139K on doughnuts and $124K on ice cream. Meanwhile, troops got carrots, old beef, and a fried boot.

Christian Nationalist Pete Hegseth has come up with a way to motivate Iranians to kill more American troops. Instead of framing the war as being against the Iranian regime, which many Iranians dislike and wouldn't fight for, he talks of the war being against their Islamic faith. He's smart that way.
