Everyone needs to be talking about this.

This is not sustainable.
At some point the rest of the world will band together to stop this madness, but the ramifications will last decades.
Worse, in 2 years most memory-challenged Americans won’t remember why everyone outside the USA hates us and wants us all to die.
We’re letting this happen.

On NJ Transit on the way home and the train just died.

Just another day/reminder of how “the richest and most powerful nation in the world” cannot do mass transit.

We can afford a war and build concentration camps, but not mass transit.

Markwayne Mullin?

More like Markwayne Mulligan, amiright? ⛳️

Markwayne on January 6

Putting Markwayne Mullin in charge of guarding the country is like putting the bouncer from Applebee’s in charge of NORAD.

The people of Iran must be scared out of their minds, hearing Donald Trump say *he* will appoint their new leader, only moments before appointing America's Stupidest Senator, Markwayne Mullins, to run Homeland Security.

Kristi Noem claiming she "ushered in the golden age of travel" is a perfect example of how MAGA is assaulting the plain meaning of words

Justice for Cricket!!

How it started / how it's going

According to MarineTraffic the Strait of Hormuz is still effectively blocked. Tankers located at both ends of the Strait are holding positions.

On behalf of Brian’s family, we want to express our deepest gratitude for the overwhelming outpouring of support, messages, and contributions over the last 24 hours. At this time, our priority is Brian’s wellbeing. We are taking a necessary step back from the public eye to allow him to focus fully on his recovery in private. While he looks forward to engaging with you all again very soon, his health and his family remain the current priorities. Thank you for your continued patience and for being such an incredible community. Please keep Brian and his family in your prayers. — Team McGinnis

And for the record, I’ve been running long before this, and yes even after breaking my arm standing up for what I believe in. It’s only made me more determined. Anger is real, and so is resolve. Take care.

A message from Brian McGinnis, the firefighter and Marine veteran who was forcibly removed and injured by officers during his anti-war protest at the Capitol

“Spiritual warfare”?

What malevolent forces is he talking about?

🚀 Gulf Arab states are running dangerously low on missile interceptors to stop Iranian drones and missiles and have asked the U.S. to speed up resupply, - CBS

If Trump wants Zelenskyy’s help against drones, I think JD Vance to have to fly to Kiev, and sit in the Ukrainian equivalent of the Oval Office and say, “Thank you.”

Left can't resist being on wrong side of a war Whether it's Jeremy Corbyn or Zack Polanski, their foreign policy stances terrify voters outside core supporters

Well, here’s the thing about being antiwar as an ethical belief: it means you end up opposing most wars. Almost all of them, in fact. This is quite common in people who have consistent beliefs but looks insane to people who have none, or mostly just believe superior people should make the decisions.

Ron Johnson inspiring confidence.

MmHmm

Good morning and happy Thursday to everyone. At this point, the only difference between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump is that Vladimir Putin doesn't want to fuck his son-in-law's wife.

US taxpayers will now have to pay $700 million a month in interest for every month Trump refuses to refund tariffs under the Supreme Court ruling. So much winning.

kill the imposter syndrome in you head because not only is there someone out there doing it worse than you, they're also using chat gpt to do it

Anyways.

He has a lot of experience with that.

2 am and I can’t sleep…because shit like this keep me up at night.

As of this moment the WH has not ordered U.S. flags lowered for the 6 service members killed in a drone strike in Kuwait.

On Sept 10th, 2025, the flag was lowered 5 hrs after Charlie Kirk was shot.

Yes, I’m f’n outraged!

FTD

I once ran myself over with my own car while I was driving it.

The future of the GOP is Nazi. People still aren't paying attention.

Trump's war on elections is hiding in plain sight False claims that foreign government interference caused him to lose in 2020 have been a staple of the diet of lies Trump feeds to his faithful.

Donald Trump is seeking to collect massive amounts of information — including personal and partisan voter data — at an unprecedented scale. He is trying to pressure AI companies into allowing unrestricted use of their powerful tools against American citizens. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...
