They did a much better job selling the WMD story back in the day than today’s version.

New rule: USA can’t go to war unless every pro war member of Congress, Cabinet, VP, & POTUS agrees to send their own kids to the front line. If it’s a truly a noble & patriotic war they should have no problem leading by example to defend our country.

Then watch how quickly diplomacy wins over war.

Silly. You need ID (not β€œvoter ID”) to get on a plane. Not β€œproof of citizenship,” which is what the SAVE America Act requires.

Editorial cartoon split into two panels. Left panel labeled β€œIn UK” shows a uniformed police officer escorting Prince Andrew in handcuffs, captioned β€œJustice.” Right panel labeled β€œIn U.S.” shows an armed ICE agent dragging a crying child, captioned β€œJust ICE,” contrasting accountability with state violence.

4 corporations. $315B in profits. Just 4.9% in federal taxes. Tesla paid $0.

With Trump’s billionaire tax cuts Amazon, Alphabet, Meta & Tesla got $51B in cuts in ONE year.

At the original 35% rate, they’d owe ~$110B. Free public college costs ~$75B.

I do really wish more reporters would just ask "Speaker Johnson, do you think it’s appropriate for the Speaker of the Houseβ€”third in line of succession to the presidencyβ€”to be so consistently unfamiliar with current events?"

Trump posted a video depicting the first Black president and his wife as apes and his excuse for this is that it's a riff on The Lion King, a movie that does not feature any apes. Somehow this was a one-day story and we've already moved on.

Voting: A Right, Not A Privilege, For Now Republicans want to change that with the SAVE Act

First, read this and learn about the SAVE Act. Then call your senators. We can’t afford to let them impose a poll tax on our right to vote. joycevance.substack.com/p/voting-a-r...

Like Kendrick, political as hell precisely because it doesn't bother to acknowledge the haters. They're irrelevant, beneath attention. And nothing is more intolerable to fascists than the thought that their enemies are cool, enjoying themselves, and not thinking about them.

Israel Admits 70k Palestinians Killed
YouTube video by Qasim Rashid Israel Admits 70k Palestinians Killed

The Israeli gov has finally admitted that the data from the Gaza Health Ministry on the number of Palestinians killed is in fact accurate.

I continue to be astounded by the shamelessness of genocide deniers. And I fear that the actual number of Palestinians killed is far greater.

Predicting that this week we’ll hear more conciliatory words from the Administration regarding Minnesota (since they’re starting to realize that ICE has become politically toxic) but everyone outside of Minnesota needs to know that nothing on the ground has changed.

This is preying on my mind a bit. Jeffrey Epstein was not primarily a British scandal! So far we've removed a Prince from the Royal family, fired our US ambassador who was one of the most important political figures of the last few decades and banned the CEO of Barclays from the financial industry..

This behavior is below the dignity of the presidency, or the dignity of any self-respecting person in society frankly.

Republicans back a president they would never tell their own children to behave like.

Guns for me, but not for thee How the Rittenhouse Rules changed the Second Amendment.

Pretti’s murder showed that when it comes to guns and gun rights, most defenders of Trump’s pro-fascist police state clearly believe the 2nd Amendment exists to protect conservatives but bind liberals. Or, when necessary, kill them when they’re on the ground...

This heavily Black congressional district in Houston went without representation for nearly half of the term thanks to Gov. Greg Abbott (R) delaying the special election.

When Democrats regain power, Congress should pass a law requiring that House special elections take place in a timely manner
