Collecting your money illegally was so much easier.

The economy is on the precipice of a meltdown, we're facing stagflation, and we've started a regional war in the Middle East.

All this due to Donald Trump and we still haven't faced the tail risks of RFK Jr dismantling our public health infrastructure

BLITZER: Trump has said there was an 'imminent threat' from Iran. What's your understanding of that?

STUTZMAN: The imminent threat is they were going to continue to build - rebuild - their nuclear program

WOLF: But Trump said the nuclear facilities were 'obliterated.' So why the need to attack?

i feel like north korea looks at these guys and tells them theyre laying it on a bit thick

"Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been for decades trying to drag the U.S. into war with Iran. Senator Van Hollen yesterday said he just hadn’t found a president stupid enough to be dragged into that war."

Did you know you can shrug and say "No can do boss" when a court orders you to do something

Kids havent idea who reads or listen to what I post but my following is growing so some of u r.
Now for what I want to talk about here today. boots on the ground in Iran. To do this will require an army of not less then 1.2M to 2M
Have less then 1/2M
draft 80% 18-26 F4 unfit
20% lest 80% will hide

Rep. Nancy Mace: "I believe Pam Bondi has been less than truthful with the American people and Congress on the Epstein files. I want to know where the files are that were on her desk, because they're not in the hands of Congress ... I want to know why this is continuing to be covered up."

We are urging strongly that Iran's statehood be preserved. We do not want to see a Syrian scenario here, but rather we want this state to become functional from within itself. And that is why I also appeal, both in Washington and in all talks with the Israeli government, to create the conditions as quickly as possible for this country to be stabilized, for it to get a democratically legitimized government, and for it to be able to continue to exist as a state. It is a country with over 90 million inhabitants, and we naturally also have a high self-interest in this in order to avoid new refugee flows from the region.

Finally someone mentions the upcoming refugee problem that I raised here about a week ago - this should’ve been considered BEFORE the strike.

Trump’s “Warflation” Has Just Begun If he were trying to increase prices on purpose, would he be doing anything differently?

WSJ: US is preparing to ask China to reduce its oil imports from Russia and Iran and instead buy more American oil and gas as part of broader negotiations ahead of an upcoming Trump-Xi summit.

Context: Political theater: in media - US will be tough on Kremlin, in reality - US eases sanctions on RU.

Telegraph sold for £575m as German buyer elbows out Daily Mail Axel Springer, owner of Bild and Die Welt, agrees all-cash deal for one of UK’s oldest newspapers

Slap in the face for the Daily Mail. Axel Springer owns Europe’s biggest paper, Bild, as well as Die Welt, Politico and Business Insider.

So I guess it was either World War III or drag queens reading books to our children.

You mean the radical fascist republican oligarch owned "free press" would all suck Orange Felon mushroom?

I am frankly more concerned about the apathy of the American public and even more importantly the lack of leadership in the Democratic Party.

This is not a dress rehearsal. Every single American must speak out against this Facist administration.

My advice to the Administration: With the U.S. uncomfortably close to a recession -- and already in a jobs recession -- don't do anything rash that could make things worse.

True.

Massie on Newsmax: "We're not getting the answers we need from Pam Bondi. I just spent 3 hours at the DOJ this week looking at the unredacted files. And I'm finding evidence of files they haven't released yet." (Note that the Newsmax anchor agrees with him!)

Where's My Golden Age? The State of the Union seems like a long time ago
