Obama has the crowd at Jesse Jackson's eulogy hanging on his every word

Iceland locks in on date for EU referendum | Euractiv As a member of the European Economic Area, Iceland is already aligned with much of the bloc's legislation

Just announced: Iceland has urgently moved up its referendum to join the European Union - to 29 August.

A reminder: 🇮🇸 is in many ways already a non-voting 🇪🇺 member because of the EEA. This would give them voting power to shape the laws they have to follow.

Moskowitz: I want to end on a happy note. I got you a new Coast Guard blankie, the one you lost.

Predator says what?

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.

Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

Sen Tim Sheehy (R-Montana) badly breaking the arm of a Marine veteran protesting the war Iran.

LIEU: Did Amalia commit a crime?

NOEM: She did not. She's with her family

LIEU: The reason she's with her family is because she almost died in ICE detention until folks brought a lawsuit forcing her release

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.

So as I understand it, it is the policy of the United States that the President can unilaterally issue orders to kill the leader of any country at any time for any reason?

Probably a bad thing that the president now knows he can kill foreign leaders who oppose him without any consequences.

This is what happens when oligarchs control the *news*

Americans watched as federal agents killed two Minnesotans.

Now their families have to watch Kristi Noem continue to lie about it.

Just a random reminder that over 50 members of Congress collectively own millions of dollars in defense contractor stocks.

They stand to personally profit from wars that enrich these contractors.

Make no mistake, this is legalized corruption.

Watch how they vote this week.

Tom Tillis has been DESTROYING Noem for the last five minutes.

Is this bad? It seems bad.

after absolutely eviscerating Kristi Noem and calling for her resignation, Tillis is applauded. He thens threatens to hold up nominees if she doesn't stop stonewalling him. My God.

So this excuse isn’t going to work anymore.

wow -- Tillis goes ballistic on Noem, telling her "what we've seen is a disaster under your leadership"

From ‘Noel’s Notes: For America’ all this talk about Trump and skating sports reminds me of my friend he groomed when she took figure skating lessons at his Central Park Ice rink. She was twelve. Link: open.substack.com/pub/noelcasl...

Trump’s new policy agenda caps student loans for graduate studies, effectively making higher education only available to the children of privilege.
POTUS is betting that they will be pleased with a UFC fight on the White House lawn instead of a school lunch or a shot at college for their kids.

Personally, I see Kushner’s greasy little fingers all over this Iran attack. The most dangerous man in MAGA, Vanky always had her daddy’s balls in a manicured razor grip but Jared is the one who sends out the bombs. They both escape scrutiny while her chucklehead brothers profit.
