Post by Aaron Rupar summarizing an NBC interview in which a reporter presses a Trump administration official about easing oil sanctions benefiting Russia, with a split-screen image of the journalist and the official during the interview.

Trump never met a favor he couldn't do for his pal Vladimir.

This person is no more

Trump and his national security team have learned nothing from our prior mistakes in the Middle East. Bombing a school (a incompetent mistake) and a desalinization plant (probably not a mistake) is just going to empower Iran's hardline leadership and dangerous terrorist groups.

The guy who voices Master Chief from the video game "Halo," who was featured in a White House meme video showing missiles blowing people up in Iran, calls it "disgusting and juvenile war porn" wapo.st/3NhffGm

Leavitt yesterday explained that Trump joined Israel in a military attack on Iran because Trump had “a feeling based on fact” that Iran was going to attack the United States.

From Heather Cox Richardson’s column.

Explain the fact before telling us the feeling. Feelings shouldn’t kill people.

NOEM: I would disagree with the judge

CROCKETT: I'm sure you would, but can you tell me whether or not you have a law degree?

NOEM: A what?

CROCKETT: A law degree

NOEM: No I do no-

CROCKETT: Okay

NEW: ProPublica is releasing a trove of disclosure records that detail the finances of more than 1,500 Trump appointees, including former lobbyists, industry executives and at least a dozen officials who declined to identify former clients.

Raskin: Based on what you know today, were Renee Good and Alex Pretti domestic terrorists?

Noem: What happened was an absolute tragedy.

Raskin: Were they domestic terrorists?

Noem: My condolences to their families

Raskin: You lied about them.

U.S. sub sinks Iranian warship off Sri Lanka, killing 87 and expanding war zone A U.S. submarine sank an Iranian warship off the southern coast of Sri Lanka, killing dozens of sailors and dramatically widening Washington's pursuit of the Iranian navy.

A US submarine sinking a lonely, dinky Iranian surface ship an ocean away from the theater of the main conflict—and 9000
miles from North America—makes it pretty clear the US is fighting a general war, without the declaration required by the Constitution. www.reuters.com/world/asia-p...

You don't fight fraud by giving pardons to fraudsters, ripping away food assistance from kids, or targeting Democrat-led states while ignoring Republican ones. This administration is full of corruption and we will hold them accountable.

This is one of the strongest pieces of Dem rhetoric I've seen in my brief time on this earth. If Biden/Harris made this strong of an argument against Trump I think she would have won. Giving someone the SOTU response is basically making them walk the plank, but Spanberger did a genuinely good job.

Trump Hails an Economic Turnaround Many Voters Don’t See The U.S. is ‘bigger, better, richer and stronger than ever before,’ Trump said in his State of the Union address.

Trump's economy is so poor and his lies so outlandish that even the conservative Wall Street Journal isn't buying his spin.

Is it any wonder voters aren't buying it, either?

$1.5T military budget
$170B on ICE & Border Patrol
$100B on tax cuts for the 1%
$20B from Treasury for Argentina
$1B to refurbish Trump's Qatar jet
$500M sending National Guard into cities
$250M on Kristi Noem's jets
$100M+ on Trump's golf outings
$75k for Kash Patel's Olympic trip

Priorities.

For Trump, a military conflict with Iran would distract from:

-Epstein files
-His deadly deportation agenda
-Losing on tariffs at SCOTUS
-Tanking polls
-His devastating (and unpopular) budget bill
-Millions of people protesting his authoritarianism

When he's cornered, he lashes out. Be warned.

Today I’m proposing a ban on assault rifles, high-capacity magazines, binary triggers, firearms without serial numbers, and more.

“I Have Been Here Too Long”: Read Letters from the Children Detained at ICE’s Dilley Facility Hundreds of children are currently being held with their parents at an immigration detention center in Dilley, Texas. In letters and drawings, eight kids convey the pain of feeling trapped with no end...

“I miss my school and my friends I feel bad since when I came here to this Place, because I have been here too long,” wrote 9-year-old Susej, who said she had been held at Dilley detention center for more than 50 days.

Rep. Massie:  “I've not seen any arrests from the revelations in the Epstein files…Over two dozen people have resigned, CEOs, members of government worldwide. But I haven't seen any arrests or investigations here in the United States from this DOJ.”

The DoD now has more money than it knows what to do with.

Imagine if we spent that money on healthcare or housing instead.

Screenshot of a social post by President Donald J. Trump that says: 'The supreme court (will be using lower case letters for a while based on a complete lack of respect!) of the United States accidentally and unwittingly gave me, as President of the United States, far more powers and strength than I had prior to their ridiculous, dumb, and very internationally divisive ruling. For one thing, I can use Licenses to do absolutely “terrible” things to foreign countries, especially those countries that have been RIPPING US OFF for many decades, but incomprehensibly, according to the ruling, can’t charge them a License fee - BUT ALL LICENSES CHARGE FEES, why can’t the United States do so? You do a license to get a fee! The opinion doesn’t explain that, but I know the answer! The court has also approved all other Tariffs, of which there are many, and they can all be used in a much more powerful and obnoxious way, with legal certainty, than the Tariffs as initially used. Our incompetent supreme court did a great job for the wrong people, and for that they should be ashamed of themselves (but not the Great Three!). The next thing you know they will rule in favor of China and others, who are making an absolute fortune on Birthright Citizenship, by saying the 14th Amendment was NOT written to take care of the “babies of slaves,” which it was as proven by the EXACT TIMING of its construction, filing, and ratification, which perfectly coincided with the END OF THE CIVIL WAR. How much better can you do than that? But this supreme court will find a way to come to the wrong conclusion, one that again will make China, and various other Nations, happy and rich. Let our supreme court keep making decisions that are so bad and deleterious to the future of our Nation - I have a job to do. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! President DONALD J. TRUMP'

Small men talk about power this way.

Our Best Hope is that Trump is Taking Medical Advice from Mr MAHA🪱

Texans: After nearly three decades in charge, “we can fix it” sounds like a confession.

No US War on Iran: An Open Letter From Jeffrey D. Sachs to the UN Security Council The current threat of an attack by the US did not begin with any failure by Iran to negotiate. On the contrary, it began with the United States’ repudiation of negotiations that had already succeeded.

No US War on Iran: An Open Letter From Jeffrey D. Sachs to the UN Security Council | "The current threats by the US are part of a long-standing pattern of feigning interest in negotiations while in fact pursuing economic warfare and military force."

Cartoon. What was to bad in the Iran deal? Trump - Obamas signature

Day 392

Trump ripped up a working viable treaty with Iran.

He called it ‘the worst deal ever’.

Then he tried to replace it with a very similar deal, but with his name on it, not Obamas.

Fast forward and no deal was ever agreed.

Now war could break out at any second.

You are all caught up.
