tbh I prefer SOTU heckling over the ritualistic faux pomp and circumstance

Pretty striking how much current "potential Iran war" discourse leads with speculation over whether Iran is close to an illegal nuclear weapon without any mention of Israel's existing illegal nuclear weapon.

oh does he now, you don't say

BTW Schumer and Jeffries are not being "ineffective" in stopping Trump's war with Iran. They not trying because they're happy it's happening.

Truly fantastic joint statement by Chuck and Hakeem against a new war on Iran! Haha just joshin’. Unbelievable! Cause I made it up! Unconvincingly!

right, the whole "manufacturing consent" thing isn't even necessary any more when consent of the public isn't relevant

31 strikes in Somalia so far in 2026 by our tally.

first sentence gives the game away

Worth noting that the Trump admin today reaffirmed its opposition to annexation of the occupied West Bank— and this should reaffirm to everyone who pays attention that words do not mean anything if actions are absent. Whether it's a Democrat or a Republican, de facto annexation has been occurring.

reminded of this great paper right about now

When there's some Intel Community malfeasance he can't talk about, Senator Wyden notoriously finds a way to wave a red flag anyway, through his public hearing questions or letters like this. Really concerning.

their demand was already stupid and they couldn't even stick with it lol

once again I am asking

WATCH: Trump’s Federal Agents Killed Someone in Minneapolis. Again It is the third shooting by Trump’s immigration agents in the Minneapolis area in recent weeks, and comes after an ICE agent shot and killed Renee Nicole Good.

Reminder: Congress, on a bipartisan basis, is getting ready to give Trump more money to put more masked, lawless agents on American streets.

I once had a reply guy respond to one of my tweets saying I should really read what experts are saying on the topic, then linked to a report *I wrote* to "get me started."

Schumer likes to use this trick, too. "Schumer/Jeffries are opposing the bill!!!!!" headlines help obscure a failure to do the actual leadership part of the job and get the caucus in line.

incredible stuff

No one is surprised that Vance fell in line. He's a toady. But let's stop repeating this myth that Vance was ever a credible antiwar figure. He has backed every illegal attack that Trump has ordered from Yemen to Iran to Venezuela.

Democrats almost always prefer to follow polls over actually leading. The fact that they're *not* following polls on ICE (which a plurality of voters want to abolish) tells us a lot about who they actually work for.

very cool that Democratic leadership actively chose not to mount any opposition at all to the parts of the big bad Trump bill that threw mega extra $$$$ at the military and ICE. a strategy that's really aging well.

who will be the first politician to propose DDR for ICE
