Tom Nichols: “This ongoing game show of ‘strike a boat every day’ […] is making us into worse people — every one of us, whether we’re in uniform or just ordinary citizens. It is spiritually and morally corrosive on every level.”

The only time Article 5 of the NATO Treaty was invoked was to defend us, not for us to defend Europe. European soldiers and civilians died fighting with us and working next to us in Afghanistan. Europe was not attacked on September 11, 2001.

mixed emotions being in a room of hundreds of people who want to know what to do if they see ICE on the streets of NYC: proud and hopeful that so many are willing to put their bodies on the line; deeply disturbed that it’s come to this.

This is not good.
The Trump administration has quietly released its National Security Strategy — apparently late on Thursday. Usually there's a rollout and fanfare for these things: www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/u...

If recent past is any guide, 14th Amendment about to be overturned. Only reason for SCOTUS to hear this case.
looking forward to either a 6-3 decision that trump as God Emperor of the United States can change the constitution by fiat or a 5-4 decision that 14th amendment means what it says with a dissent from thomas that actually the constitution recognizes donald j. trump as sovereign

This not only rings true for Muslims. It's on target for Blacks and Hispanics (mostly men), suburban white women, and 18-24 white males. Every demographic has been fcked by this fascist regime. You can correct it in the midterms. Vote accordingly.
I know some Muslims won't like to hear this, but I always try to be fair.

Even though a majority voted against Trump, some went along for tax cuts, righteous anger about the Gaza genocide, and, let's be honest, a fear of trans people.

We warned them fascists come for all. I hope eyes are opened.

The Alzheimer's drug Leqembi:

- Is administered through an infusion (for example, through the hand)
- Can cause swelling, bleeding, or fluid leakage in the brain, requiring regular MRIs
- Can cause tiredness

Curious. 🤔

I honestly don’t know what’s more concerning. That the president of the United States keeps falling asleep in public or that everyone around him is too scared to wake him up.

Sean Duffy on slashing fuel economy standards: "This rule will actually allow you to bring back the 1970s station wagon. Maybe a little wood paneling on the side. We can bring back choice to consumers."

Buddy, I gotta tell you, if I was a GOP representative, my ass would not feel comfortable watching a 15-point swing in a deeply red district ahead of a midterm where the President has been behaving erratically while consistently growing more historically unpopular.

Dear House Republicans,

Most of you don’t have a 22-point head start. But definitely keep kissing that orange ass.

I can't get over the fact that they scheduled a televised Cabinet meeting, hyped it as a major event, planned it all out to show how active and in control Trump is ... and then he dozed off in the middle of it. Repeatedly.

Megyn Kelly on alleged war crimes: "I really do kind of not only wanna see them killed in the water, whether they're on the boat or in the water, but I'd really like to see them suffer. I would like Trump and Hegseth to make it last a long time so they lose a limb and bleed out."

Listen, if you tell me that “taxation is theft” I’m going to need you to quit driving on highways or walking on sidewalks or attending a public school or using police or fire services or city snow removal.

I would mention libraries, but…

Aftyn Behn is proving that a grassroots movement can shake a district the GOP thought it owned. They’re pouring money into #TN07 because a woman powered by workers, moms, students, and rural communities has them rattled. This race is close. Vote like the future depends on it.

As the Trump administration clumsily moves toward an unnecessary and irresponsible and narcissistic war with Venezuela, I want to take a brief moment to offer this sentiment to those who voted for him over VP Harris because they believed it would keep us out of unnecessary wars:

FUCK. YOU.

It is truly disgusting how trump keeps disrespecting women journalists in those press briefings, and not ONE other journalist calls him out.

They should all walk out when he tells a reporter "Quiet, Piggy," or shouts "YOU'RE STUPID" at another.

Where are your fucking SPINES?
