I’m actually allergic to cumin. How weird is that? Never occurred to me to swap it for coriander. I don’t get it either.

Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro SΓ‘nchez on Iran:

β€œRemember that one can be against a hateful regime, as is the case with the Iranian regime, as is the whole of Spanish society, and at the same time be against an unjustified, dangerous military intervention outside of international law.”

Republican Lays Into Kristi Noem Over 'Disaster' at DHS Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem was grilled by Thom Tillis and other Republicans at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem had her ass handed to her during a congressional hearing on Tuesday β€” and not just by Democrats.

Paperback edition of There Is No Place for Us: Working and Homeless in America by Brian Goldstone

Paperback edition of There Is No Place for Us: Working and Homeless in America by Brian Goldstone

Today the paperback of THERE IS NO PLACE FOR US is out.

It's arriving in a country once again waging warβ€”a country that can spend tens of billions on bombs without blinking, while millions of Americans are one missed paycheck, one rent hike away from homelessness.

Let's take stock of where we are.

Tillis has invented the "this is not a hearing it's a performance review, so shut up" approach here - and Dems should copy it in hearings of all cabinet members. Dominance wins.

KLOBUCHAR: Alex Pretti's parents said what you said was one of the most hurtful things they could imagine. Do you want to say anything to Alex's parents?

NOEM: I did not call him a 'domestic terrorist.' I said it 'appeared to be an incident of'

KLOBUCHAR: I think the parents saw it for what it was

Kristi Noem viciously slandered Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti as domestic terrorists.

The so-called Secretary refused to apologize to their families for her disgusting lies when she testified today.

This political hack has to go.

Tillis: You decided to kill that dog because you had not invested the appropriate time in training it, and then you have the audacity to say it’s a leadership lesson. You killed a goat and said it was behaving badly. You’re a farmer β€” you don’t castrate a goat, they behave badly.

This thread is an incredible catalog and history of moral panics in the early 20th century.

The dumbasses of the day were terrified about *checks notes* kids reading books at bed time.

And it just gets more wacky from there.

Chris Murphy: "It's just so disgusting to listen to the president be waxing poetically about the drapes he's buying while there are six Americans who are dead. There are six families who are about to bury their children because of a war of choice that no one in this country wanted, an illegal war."
