And yet, once again: every day, our most prominent Democratic politicians, scholars, public intellectuals, universities & university leaders, & other civil society organizations continue to use his platform as their primary social media outlet. One cannot help but notice this & draw conclusions.

So I asked a few normie friends what they paid for gas this week:

Ventura County off-brand guy: $4.89
LA guy: $4.79
Bay Area guy: $4.69
Downtown Atlanta guy (me): $3.49
NE Ohio guy: $3.14
NoVa Costco guy: $3.06

We will repeat this exercise at least every two weeks as the Iran War wages on.

Chris Murphy: "I think it's likely the United States that carried out this attack on this school. I think it's unforgivable under any circumstances, but the fact this was one of our first targeting decisions speaks to the incompetence of our leadership at the Dept of Defense."

Without Debra’s support, encouragement and guidance, I wouldn’t have become a producer. #DebraHill was one of my heroines, and I was blessed to have her as my mentor. I miss her so much.

Fox ran older footage but labeled it as happening Saturday.

Lindsey Graham: "If we get in a fight, I want to win it quick. I'm in Miami. You see this hat? 'Free Cuba.' Stay tuned. The liberation of Cuba is upon us. We're marching through the world. We're clearing out the bad guys. Cuba is next."

Attacks on Desalination Drag Water Supplies Into the War With Iran Bahrain, which says Iran damaged a plant, is among the Gulf countries that depend heavily on purified seawater.

An Iranian drone attack damaged a desalination plant in Bahrain, bringing the war to the oil-rich Persian Gulf’s most strategic resource: drinking water.

MeToo pushed a few big-name bad actors out of their positions, but it did very little to grapple with the systems and the cultures and the people that empowered those bad actors and allowed them to operate with impunity.

Never good when the war enthusiasts appear fully aroused.

TAPPER: You know that if you vote against an additional $50 billion of funding for operations in Iran, that vote will be cast as you voting against the troops.

CHRIS MURPHY: Come on. The American people do not want this war. If you support the troops, you should be voting against this war.

Marco Rubio hanging out with Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio at the "Shield of the Americas" event, in case you were still thinking it had some sort of legitimate purpose

If you’re a democrat in congress who goes on fox the first thing you say in response to any question should be “why did you show the wrong footage of trump saluting dead soldiers?”

It’s interesting that you get straighten answers from Iran than from the Trump Administration.

Americans voted for war crime proponents—open, unsubtle advocates for years, whose big criticism of the U.S. military and allies was insufficient war criming due to, uh, wokeness or something—telling themselves it would bring peace to the Middle East, and stick it to Middle Eastern war criminals.

Israeli aircraft are currently bombing around 30 major oil storage facilities in Tehran — the first large-scale attack on Iran’s energy infrastructure since the start of the war.

So much online conservatism these days is just "I miss being a kid"

We could literally legislate this out of existence.

CBS obtained video of the DHS killing of an unarmed man in Texas that DHS concealed for nearly a year, which clearly contradicts claims that he violently rammed anyone. He is shot with his brake lights on, car not moving or barely moving. Another DHS crime.

Update: Iran has simultaneously surrendered and apologized and is a terrible regional loser that will be hit very hard today until they surrender or collapse

You know who hated wokenesss? The Tehran regime.

I knew my family switching to hybrid cars would be a good investment in the long run, but I didn't think the long run would get here so soon.

This is what I can’t wrap my head around. People keep saying “Oh it’ll work itself out” but… how? Give the ships wings? Destroy every drone in a hostile territory the size of the eastern US? Kill every living human within 100 miles of the strait?

Tesla sued after Austin shooting suspect allegedly assaulted co-worker A 65-year-old woman says the automaker ignored warning signs before Ndiaga Diagne, the suspect in Sunday’s mass shooting, assaulted her. She sued Thursday.

He wants to give “cover,” to a pedophile.

Now that they're trying to pretend their war is not a war, they've gone back to calling it the Defense Department.

I'm honestly in the same camp re: Pod Saves. I've been won over by his messaging since the tattoo scandal but unless PS has had an awakening they are usually the epitome of wanting to look like they support progress while boosting the "do nothing" establishment wing. Hoping Platner won't be Fett 2.0

I support Platner, don't think he's an antisemite, but think your post is dumb edgelord shit that does nothing to actually help build his coalition.

They.
Just.
Lie.
