shades of him thinking “asylum” means “people in actual insane asylums” and being so bubble wrapped that no one will privately correct him to keep him from sounding like a jackass

Just signed up to be a monthly donor. I found them through you! I’m down in Texas but I absolutely love what they do…and their awesome posts always make me smile. They’re one of the good ones.

Sickening racism from a sitting senator. The Ogles hate is contagious.

You’re either calling this out or normalizing it. There’s no third option.

I've read accusations that Donald J. Trump is a pedophile from thousands of people.

Odd, how the notoriously litigious Trump hasn't filed even *one* lawsuit for defamation.

It's almost as if a lawyer told him that truth is an absolute defense in defamation cases . . .

More and more, Trump is making US institutions behave like Putin’s Russian versions. This was an immediate military coverup of something that should have been admitted:

More and more rot.

I keep seeing people ask about the 25th Amendment.

Guys. His entire Cabinet is walking around in shoes that don’t fit because they’re scared to take them off.

The 25th is never happening.

Covering sessions daily at the Commission on the Status of Women this week, one question keeps coming up for me:
How can responsible media better amplify the institutions trying to address global crises?
Too often we are not meeting the moment — we are being entertained by it.
Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus & @DrTed...• 6h
Global military expenditure just hit $2.7 trillion - in a single year.
According to @UN estimates, ending world hunger by 2030 would require $93 billion annually.
That means we spend almost 30 times more every year on killing each other than on making sure everyone eats.

This is Director of WHO. And that’s exactly the point I’m trying to make all day every day this week.

The money that could have given Americans universal healthcare here at home is being spent instead to murder schoolgirls overseas.

Q: A new report says that a military investigation has found that the US struck the school in Iran. As commander in chief, do you take responsibility?

TRUMP: For what?

Headlines:

3 cargo ships have been attacked.

The Strait of Hormuz remains choked off.

Reports of some Iranian oil getting through to China.

GCC slowing down oil production due to lack of storage.

Gas prices have gone up for 11 straight days.

Donald Trump is a pedophile.

‘Titanic’ statue of Trump and Epstein on the Mall draws praise, scorn The statue, depicting them embracing on a copy of the Titanic bow, is the third placed on the Mall by the artists depicting a connection between Trump and Epstein.

There's a new Trump-Epstein statue on the National Mall.

It's an enormous statue, spray-painted gold, of Trump embracing Epstein in a reenactment of that famous scene from "Titanic."

It's so bad that we've reached a point where members of Congress casually discuss stripping citizenship from and deporting people because they don't like their views.

Trump on January 22, 2020 when the CDC confirmed the first US covid case: “We have it totally under control. It's one person coming in from China, and we have it under control. It's going to be just fine.”

The military draft comment from Leavitt feels like a trial balloon.

If there's enough outcry, Trump denies it and Leavitt falls on her sword for "misspeaking."

If there's not, Trump and Hegseth bring it up casually and slowly push. For example, Trump may "joke" about it as a next step.

I feel like it should be bigger news that Trump is now openly considering a military draft. Young men haven't been called up for a draft since 1972. Not during the Gulf War. Not during Iraq or Afghanistan. He received five draft deferments but is now open to drafting your kids.

The president who took us to a war nobody wanted (and is covering for powerful pedophiles) is now holding our government hostage until Congress passes a law that makes it easier for him to maintain power

Imagine if this were happening in another country

I'm no fancy political consultant, but, hey, if you're in Dem comms, you should notice that Fox News panicked over Trump wearing a cheap Trump merch baseball cap to receive the bodies of soldiers he got killed for no reason he can articulate, and you should absolutely lean into that.

Wow -- as first spotted by @BadFoxGraphics on X, Fox & Friends this morning used *old footage of a previous dignified transfer* to mislead their audience about the fact that Trump wore a baseball cap during the one yesterday

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.
