If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.

The video of a United States Senator joining the violent removal of U.S. marine from a hearing and hideously breaking his arm in a door is an example of what has been unleashed in this country. They’re tapping in to get in on the violence.
And then he bragged about it on X later.

Feeding people! Housing people! Forgiving medical debt! Paying for health care! Forgiving student loans!

Just thinking about what we could do with a billion dollars a day that doesn’t include bombing people.

Kelly: "You could pick a random group of people off the street tonight here in DC and they could probably do a better job than our government is doing right now. They don't have a goal, there's no strategic plan. And what this is likely to lead to is, again, a long war with a lot of dead Americans."

AOC: This is about actual crimes happening in front of us. This is about shredding the Constitution and plunging us into war. This is about taking crypto money and money laundering… So if you’re asking me if I’d support impeachment, I do

AOC: He impulsively went in on Venezuela. He impulsively went in on Iran. It led to increased global instability and every time he’s done that, it has been consistent with a spike in what is happening with the Epstein files. I think that he feels existentially tied to it.

We need to pass a House rule or law that requires them to work a certain number of days to get paid. Since Mike Johnson took over these people hardly ever work. When they finally come back after weeks off they work 2 days and he sends them home for 2 more weeks. It’s ridiculous.

I wish some major media outlets would do broad reports on the impact of death threats on our politics, and on who's doing them (MAGA men mostly from what I can tell), and why law enforcement appears to be doing so little about them. They are such a big (submerged) part of our politics now.

Maga pols are out of touch. They need to connect with the real American people in hipster coffee shops in dense urban areas.

This is or probably should be an extinction-level vote total for that particular rhetoric within the D caucus.

Twice, I slowly, methodically removed the steering wheel from a junker only for the plate in the middle to crack in half 😩

Third time’s the charm! He gave it to me for free, which was a nice change from the absolute misogyny of many Car Guys

She lasted for 3.5 years and 124,000 more miles. She drove me across the country and back a few times.

I felt genuine grief when the transmission died and only drove in 2nd gear. I sold her to a junkyard for $75.

I did all of the work on the car myself, guided by my dad. I put new front & rear brakes, rotors, rear struts and springs (bought them separately bc it was $75 cheaper), steering wheel, stereo, speakers, front & rear quarter panels, grille, and front bumper on that car. Less than $2,000 in parts.

I bought the tracer for $900 when it had just over 100,000 miles. It ruled. It was cheap af to fix bc it had interchangeable parts with ford escorts of several model years. Both of those cars were everywhere, including junkyards.

So, in launching a huge bombing campaign on Iran they apparently didn't plan for:

- Who takes over;
- Interceptor shortages from sustained drone retaliation;
- How to defend US bases in the region;
- Threats to ships in the Strait of Hormuz; and
- How to evacuate Americans with airspace closed.

Only 1 hour left and $250 still needed to save Falco's wheelchair & other medical equipment in storage from going to auction!

BREAKING: Senator Blumenthal states Trump regime just briefed them on sending US troops to fight in Iran.

Boots on the ground.

A reminder that him & Netanyahu will not send their sons, but they expect your sons and daughters to go die for them so they can stay out of prison. Are we great yet?🤔

Trump helps MAGA influencers flee Middle East war zone on private jet Trump adviser Alex Bruesewitz, dogwalker Sarah Daither, former lobbyist Jay Footlik, and others managed to escape on a private plane thanks to the White House.

The White House has helped MAGA influencers escape the Middle East on a private jet while more than a million ordinary Americans are still trapped with no way out.
