Each one of those three missiles costs 33% more than the annual budget of the national park where I work.

YouTube video by MS NOW 'Who benefits?': Maddow NAILS TRUMP on motivations to attack Iran

Maddow & team should get a Breaking News Emmy for her 1pm Saturday MSNOW coverage. The opening nineteen minutes for contextualizing 🤦🏻

His Waterloo. Or ours.

Doesn’t Anthropic have the goods on these bozos that it could air publicly?

If you've seen the news today about transgender Kansans having their drivers licenses suddenly revoked, check out the deep reporting our colleagues in Kansas have been doing on the subject for months

But this isn’t just a regular account. Johnny MAGA appears to actually be a White House staffer named Garrett Wade who works for the Trump administration as a rapid response manager, helping to run the very same White House account his anonymous MAGA account amplifies. A phone number associated with Wade is linked to Johnny MAGA, according to a WIRED review of publicly available records, and the connection was confirmed by a source close to the White House. Wade and the White House did not respond to requests for comment.

The Johnny MAGA account was created in September 2021, according to its X profile. (It originally used a different handle, which referenced Wade’s birth year, according to records reviewed by WIRED.) While the account’s earliest available posts focused on NFTs, it has been a consistent pro-Trump presence since at least 2022. The operator of the Johnny MAGA account has not disclosed an official relationship with the White House while operating the Johnny MAGA X account. Multiple media outlets, including Mother Jones, TownHall, and the New York Post, have all linked out to posts on the Johnny MAGA account seemingly as organic reflections of public sentiment on political issues.

This is very good reporting that sheds light on just how small the extremely pro-Trump online right really is. The online right is totally astroturfed. The White House's own staffers are running meme accounts to make them look more popular than they are. www.wired.com/story/a-whit...

Forced minority rule always explodes on the minority. I can’t wait.

SOTU taking on some ominous lynch mob vibes as the almost entirely white and overwhelmingly male Republicans in the chamber stand and jeer at their Democratic colleagues while their angry, screaming leader eggs them on.

Now we know what our guillotine will be

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

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

"A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom.” -MLK

thinking about how Savannah Guthrie had to cancel her trip to work the Olympics because of her mom’s kidnapping but the guy who heads up the investigative body handling the case was posting pictures of himself in the US hockey locker room today lol

Vote with your wallet. Do not spend money with corporations that collaborate on the extinction of your way of life.

If I were a airport employee and someone complained about this, I'd point to the nearest video monitor showing Kristi Noem and say, "Blame her."

Maybe we are overwhelmed

We have to start using our system to take care of each other. We haven’t been for quite some time.

FYI: If Trump weren't a pedophile, he would be suing for defamation.

Sadly, ICE learned what not to do in Minnesota… they have not left… but are spreading out in disguise tricking and nabbing people before we can respond. We need a new plan….

Right-wing Heritage Foundation’s own data shows fewer than 100 noncitizens voted since 1982 (!!!)

This is not a real problem. “The SAVE ACT is a Trojan horse to nationalize elections”: open.substack.com/pub/thiswill...

The American People have not yet begun to fight. Not really. When they stop holding back, our corrupt politicians will be terrified.

Never forget that Donald Trump gave Piers Morgan a job in TV.

Every Trump voter should ask themselves whether this is the kind of Amerika they voted for. How great are you really making Amerika by committing atrocities like this?

It's been 8 years since the shooting at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida, a school where I have family.

Nothing has been done to project our children since then.

The Epstein meltdown exposes what our corrupt leaders really think about protecting kids.

Still trying to cash in

In a normal time, this would happen. Jared Kushner is on the actual payroll of at least two Middle Eastern sovereigns as he purports to represent the US in negotiations, many of which involve the Middle East. It's the all-time most outrageous conflict. But US media are ignoring it.

Deep wish to unseat all politicians who start a post with “Let’s be clear.”

The El Paso story is a perfect little slice of Trumpism. You take the combined incompetence of our Dep'ts of Transportation, Defense & Homeland Security and create a major public safety risk, shut down a major airport, alarm our neighbors that we are about attack them & shoot down a party balloon.

If the SAVE Act Passes, Americans May Not Get Their Passports On Time… A new law being debated in Congress would make U.S. passports one of the few IDs allowed to vote. The surge in passport application threatens to clog the…

The SAVE Act, being debated in Congress, would make U.S. passports one of the few IDs allowed to vote.

The surge in passport application threatens to clog the system for months or years, impacting travel for millions.
