An expat in Dubai has a startling revelation: the Stephen Collins cartoon Reality check …

Ha, bloody, ha.

US Commanders Want to Make War With Iran as ‘Bloody’ as Possible to Bring About Biblical End Times, Officers Report | Common Dreams One noncommissioned officer said he was directed to tell his troops that Trump was "anointed by Jesus" and that war with Iran was "all part of God’s divine plan" to bring about armageddon.

“Siri, if I commit war crimes, do I get off if my CO says it’s for Jesus?”

This made me really happy though.

Colluding with racists because you think trans people are expendable should cost you your job

people gloating about how they expect a Black woman to do work for “their” candidate

While Black voters are openly getting the rights infringed …

They want non white people to swallow hell for “electability” while MAGA shows them their racism is MAGA’s biggest asset

lmfao get wrecked

They are awful.

Loser shit.

NC-4 shows how establishment power operates.When leadership allies funnel AIPAC money to shield incumbents, grassroots challengers face a political machine, not just an opponent. Yet a tight race signals something shifting:voters are starting to question big-money gatekeeping in Democratic primaries

Authoritarians often mistake mockery for strength. History’s portraits on the wall remind us: bluster, insults, and dehumanizing language have never been the marks of great leadership—only the warning signs of it unraveling. Democracies endure when citizens refuse to normalize it. #USDemocracy

The cartoon’s point is razor sharp: when bombs fall abroad, inconvenient truths at home can suddenly vanish from the headlines. Wars reshape maps, but they can also reshape the public conversation—sometimes very conveniently for those in power. #USDemocracy

White Democrats interact with Black voters like an abusive partner who thinks they’ve successfully isolated. Their victim from help

It’s a sadistic double bind

Joann Ariola NYC Council ... • Follow ••• 10h• Almost every major religion has celebrated a month of recognition in New York. With 57% of the state's residents practicing Christianity, I am calling on the Governor to recognize the month of December as Christian Heritage Month. That's why I introduced Reso 321, so residents who adhere to the faith can have the same recognition as their neighbors, and those who might not be as familiar with Christianity can have an opportunity to learn more about it. COUNCILWOMAN JOANN ARIOLA NYC COUNCIL DISTRICT 32 NEM INTRODUCED RESO 321 Resolution that the Council of the City of New York calls on the New York State Legislature to pass, and the Governor to sign, legislation marking the month of December as Christian Heritage Month.

December, the month when non-Christians are famously not aware of Christianity and could stand to learn more about it

When nuclear escalation becomes casual online speculation, it shows how dangerously normalized extreme rhetoric has become. A nuclear detonation is not a punchline or prediction game—it’s a humanitarian catastrophe. The stakes demand sobriety, not spectacle. #USDemocracy

CREC-aligned theo bros and trad Catholics aren’t happy. NAR people like Wallnau and Feucht are ecstatic. Old-school dispensationalists are also pleased.

All Army Reservists from 103rd ESC (the cactus patch) out of Des Moines, IA. Condolences to their families.

Democrats Raise Alarm After Getting New Info About Trump's Iran War “I'm more convinced now that this is going to be open-ended and forever," Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) said after a briefing on Iran on Tuesday.

“The US is run by lunatics, religious fanatic lunatics who prop up a lunatic windbag” the rest of the world tells reporters.

“‘Iran is run by lunatics, religious fanatic lunatics’,”Rubio told reporters.

Exactly. He gets what he wants and the Florida taxpayers foot the bill.

fwiw this is why they're getting mad at you when you say "I won't vote for newsom." A lot of them have already decided he's the one, and they're very upset with you for telling them their plan is a nonstarter. Keep telling them. He's just the liberal ron desantis

“Signs of suffering have made Gov DeathSantis more eager for more executions” #FIFY

During the DeSantis admin, he has repeatedly refused federal money appropriated to states to help residents but has asked for more than $1 billion to imprison them.

Ron DeSantis was given a lifetime achievement award from the National Italian American Foundation.

DeSantis accepted the award at Trump’s golf club, which is owned by the same guy who kept calling him “meatball” repeatedly.

“Still other ideas have centered around whether the Kurds could take and hold territory in the northern part of Iran that would create a buffer zone for Israel.”

Spain rebuts Israel’s foreign minister, a war criminal, after he claimed that Spain is “siding with tyrants.”

"That's absurd and ridiculous, Spain has a coherent foreign policy. We are always with democracy. We are always for international law."

Fundamentally lazy and incurious, so used to flim flam and huckster bs that he thinks the whole world works this way.

We are a culture that rewards aggressors and the people who envy them are always looking for a way justify their admieation

There Are 47,635 Epstein Files Offline for Review, DOJ Says Among the unreleased documents are a woman’s unverified allegations against President Trump.

DOJ has withheld thousands of documents from the Epstein files — including FBI material showing a woman’s unverified allegations of sexual misconduct involving Donald Trump — from public review, per the Wall Street Journal. Transparency shouldn’t be optional, and justice shouldn’t have secret pages.

Average transphobe: we have to ban gender affirming care because they might regret it. My evidence is that I once knew a person who said they were trans and then after I called them slurs, misgendered them, deadnamed them, and abused them for an extended period, they said they weren't trans anymore.

There's actual research on this: support for wars always goes down over time, and never up. I've never seen support for a war start at such a low level, and it will only go down from here.
