REMINDER:
The Republican Party, in reality, invented Mail-In Voting! If they think it’s going down, they have another thing coming! There are several states where that’s the ONLY way to vote! ITS LAW❗️
“There is only one party in the United States, the Property Party … and it has two right wings: Republican and Democrat.”
― Gore Vidal
It was true during Gore Vidal's lifetime and it's still true. All that's changed is that it's become much more obvious now.
Who put this MFer in charge of the world?

I heard the audio. He said it.
Lord. What have y'all done.
I understand that there are a lot of folks on the left who instinctively recoil from religious language, and with good reason given its use by the right.
But please listen to this, and focus on how he's trying to realign "Christian values" so they align with and advance progressive policy goals.
Word. I don't consider the Democratic Party a cult. Which is why I WILL express my feelings and concerns about ANY god damn candidate I choose to. That's part of what being a Democrat is to me. Doesn't mean I won't vote for them, it just means I can express my feelings and concerns.
I’m hollering at my screen… yaaas!
Actress Sheryl Underwood, an Air Force Reserve veteran, is asking the questions we all want answers to.
“Why is this not impeachable? And where are the politicians that say, ‘this dude don’t have it all the way together, he cannot be the commander in chief?’” 🔥
Are we allowed to get the rest of the Epstein files now?

Sam Stein and Will Saletan discuss the South Carolina senator's insatiable bloodlust on his Sunday show appearances.
Great work by NYT showing Trump's war is the most unpopular ever. Supports my argument (see below) that in some ways the public rejection of Trump across the board is a very heartening development:
Trump’s claim that Iran was to blame for a deadly strike on an Iranian girls school is contradicted by video footage showing US was likely to blame.
I asked him if the US would now accept responsibility — and he walked back his claim and said it’s being investigated.
Iran's Larijani: 'The Ashura-loving nation of Iran does not fear your paper threats. Even those greater than you could not eliminate the Iranian nation. Watch out for yourself—lest you be eliminated!'
“Locked up in rooms where 12 people fit. They don’t let us go out to the games and park that’s there, and it’s very boring to do every day. May God touch the hearts of those at ICE. Let us out, we are not criminals. I want to go home.”

“I am Mathias I am 7 I am writing this letter so my story is heard by you We need help have been detained for 23 days with my mom & 3yo sister. I cry a lot I want to get out of here go back to my school here they do not treat us well there are many children we are kidnapped help!”
Hypothesis: on US government servers there's thousands of Anthropic wargaming outputs and a bunch of them (based on scraped analyses from experts) basically say all this would happen, and the Trump admin can't figure out how to just delete them all, hence rushing to rip the whole system out.
(Bloomberg) - Iran said it’s “absolutely” not seeking a ceasefire in the war as it launched a new wave of missiles at Israel territories including Tel Aviv.

Trump justifiers posit his military interventions against strongmen are good — despite the fact that in both Venezuela and Iran, they intentionally exploited the hopes of and set up the democratic oppositions to fail as a consequence of their actions

Well somebody's winning ...🤷♀️
So, not over
Trump's options: 1. Keep war going that is causing huge spike in gas prices and inflation. 2. End war and we return to focus on Epstein files that include credible allegations he sexually assaulted a child.
Option 2 is what the GOP is fine with.
oh
"In fact, Iran has no Tomahawks. Any country the U.S. has sold Tomahawks to would have to obtain authorization from the State Department before transferring them to a third party, like Iran."
Sounds like someone from State/PM needs to explain the foreign military sales process to POTUS...
New in PN: The worst cabinet in history
"Even having one or two cabinet members as disastrous as Noem, Hegseth, Kennedy, or Bondi would be a stain on any administration; putting them all in one govt has created a kind of Bizarro World 1927 Yankees, an all-star team of incompetence and malevolence."
Trump's MAGA base of about 30% will still support him however.
