The King Fahd Causeway, a series of bridges linking Saudi Arabia to the island country of Bahrain, closed again Tuesday amid Iranian missile attacks.

One good use of the supposed two-week ceasefire is to get back to talking about the Epstein files

Can we stop talking about impeachment and start talking about imprisonment

Don’t you know this pissed the taco off!

Just wanted to remind folks, especially the GOP and the FDD, that Barack Obama’s 2015 nuclear deal didn’t give Iran control of the Strait of Hormuz or allow it to keep 60% enriched uranium. It sent $1.7 billion to Iran versus the tens of billions Iran will now make from tolls. 🤷🏽‍♂️

The torrent of lies coming from Karoline Leavitt right now is breathtaking

Before I became an American, I was Lebanese. Parts of my family live in Lebanon.

Anyway, you don't need those bona fides to feel this way, but what is happening in Lebanon right now is a complete outrage. The people there, who mostly are just trying to carve out a living, don't deserve this.

We're living through the doom loop once again.

We need to confront what Trump is saying, not sanitize it.

We must take him literally and seriously.

We have to stand tall and not back away.

Fox News: "Breaking right now -- Iranian state media says Iran is closing the Strait of Hormuz"

Hollywood lied to you. This is what a terrorist looks like!

Prime Minister of Spain Pedro Sánchez:

“The Government of Spain will not applaud those who set the world on fire just because they show up with a bucket.”

🔥 @rokhanna.bsky.social to Democratic leadership: “Get out. Let a new generation lead. You’ve been ineffective. The base doesn’t like you. The base wants fighters.”

Congress is completely useless at this point.

That's for sure. He is definitely not American citizens first.

Q: As of today, who controls the Strait of Hormuz?

LEAVITT: We expect that the strait will be opened immediately


Q: Who controls the strait right now?

LEAVITT: *refuses to answer*

Watters: Are you happy that there is a ceasefire? Where do you stand?

Jessica: I stand in reality that there is no ceasefire.

Remember this!

Speaker Mike Johnson sent everyone home and disappeared. He knew what was coming: a war crime.

Hakeem Jeffries is speaking truth to power while the Speaker hides. A vote on the War Powers Resolution is overdue.

Iran Allows Ship Loaded With Epstein Files Through Strait of Hormuz Although Iran is charging vessels millions for safe passage through the Strait, “We are sending the Epstein files through free of charge,” they said.

Hey MAGA: You want to explain this too me? You tired of all that winning yet?

I'd really like to see leadership calling for impeachment and removal, regardless of whether they have the votes to get it done. Same way we called for marriage equality before we had the votes. A leader's job is to lead. If a genocidal threat isn't impeachable, then nothing is.

Detained by ICE, he missed multiple cancer treatments. Now he’s in hospice. Some immigrants with chronic health problems were swept up by ICE in Minnesota, leading to missed medications and, for one man, missed chemotherapy sessions.

"In immigration detention, he missed 4 out of 5 chemotherapy sessions scheduled in his fight against aggressive lymphoma.

A scan last month showed the cancer had spread into his bone marrow.

“I was in shock, seeing those little dots,” he said of the scan...”

By the time he’s done, I’ll bet that at least a quarter of the national debt will just be money he stole.

This isn't about "training issues." The murderer who executed Renee Good has been with ICE for 10 years, and according to DHS, the murderer who executed Alex Pretti has been there for 8 years.

These aren't "new recruits," or officers that can be "retrained." ICE can't be reformed. Abolish ICE.
