@patwellstx @geostylegeo @richolsonwriter "Beneath [Contempt]" is the very LAST book on planet to which anyone should refer vis-à-vis WW II Italy, unless part of a discussion about its despicable author bamboozling people into believing they've been offered "90% true" authentic history. It is #literaryfraud. #HMD2021

@pr0truth @glugalug @MarkJCarney News flash (?): most humans (males in particular) are or would be "warmongers" (but only @TheTweetOfGod may know your operating definition). Irony 🧊berg: griping about an Applebaum article on "History Will Judge the Complicit". Here's a new one: 🤷‍♀️😏 theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/07/…

@CatCaliban @glugalug @MarkJCarney Lindsey Graham has been warmongering from WAAAY back When was this 'once upon a time' bs?? And the Atlantic??? Good grief

Senator Lindsey Graham dedicated his life to serving the people of South Carolina and the United States.    Throughout his career, he stood resolutely in defence of democracy and freedom, most recently and particularly with Ukraine and its people.   I offer my condolences to Senator Graham’s family, friends, and all those who served alongside him.

@glugalug @MarkJCarney The tragedy is that you're wrong. He did, once upon a time. (If you're not much of a reader, search "Graham".) (btw, drop the royal "we" unless that's your preferred pronoun. You can speak for you; anything more indicates smacks of insecurity, etc.🤷‍♀️😤) theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…

@MarkJCarney Never in his life did Graham serve people of the United States. We are glad to see him gone.

@Timodc 2024 episode was a form of misdirected grief, self-loathing, shame, probably non-🤏 amount of envy. He's one of many who betrayed the GOP and did far more than go along to get along. RIP anyway. —One of many stuck in the center (leaning left on many and conservative on some)🤷‍♀️

After the Harris debate in 2024, I walked up to Lindsey Graham outside the spin room, he immediately laced into me for how I had turned on the GOP. He was red-faced, spittling as he ranted. A heated back and forth ensued. It petered out and I started walking away. He followed me, made a wry remark about Trumps debate prep team being a disaster. I turned around. He told a funny old story from the 2016 campaign. We laughed. He gave a pat on the shoulder and pretended like he might come on the podcast. That encounter was Lindsey in a nutshell. Wish things had been different the last ten years. Alas. Will have more tomorrow. RIP.

@RonFilipkowski Any of the many who wished Graham gone would've kinda sorta ~💯% precipitated the event back when there existed a near certainty a 🤏 👿'd do real good. Same old MAliGnAnt diversionary fvckery by one of the most unsmart, obsequious 👀 "soldiers" of the Despicable Clan-Cult. 🙄

Not sure why the FBI would be involved with a heart attack.

@LassinMI Give it a rest. You'll still be insecure (and possibly dysregulated) tomorrow. The name isn't Franco. The 🤷‍♀️s + my profile are clues. Carry on without me if you like. ~hitting mute feature (b/c I dislike blocking unless the person is vile — you don't rise/sink to that...yet)~

@CatCaliban Poor Franco, so gullible they believe everything they hear. So touchy they can't handle when someone questions if there are witnesses, when there aren't, little Franco then throws a tantrum on the person asking. LOL Whaaaaa, Whaaaaa, little Franco.

This post is misleading. It makes it sound like James Woods is now facing a new allegation. In reality, this refers to a 2017 allegation by Amber Tamblyn that Woods denied at the time. Whether you believe her, him, or remain undecided, presenting a nine-year-old disputed allegation as breaking news isn’t accurate.

When I heard about Senator Graham’s death last night, the first thing I thought about was not all the things he said and did in service of Donald Trump. I thought of the time before Donald Trump when he was a brother to Senator John McCain. A time when senators from different parties could fight about politics and still be friends. A time when a conservative Republican from South Carolina could say of my father: “If you can’t admire Joe Biden as a person, you’ve got a problem. He’s the nicest person I’ve ever met in politics. As good a man as God ever created.” That is the Senator Graham I will remember today. Not because I have forgotten what came after. Because in that memory there is hope. Hope for a country where brothers can fight like hell over policy and still share a meal, and a laugh, and the loss of the people they love. I will choose to remember the time before Trump. Because I believe in an America after Trump.

@danielsilvabook @Scaramucci @DeidreScaramuc2 Erm, did you consider for a moment (or at all) the news that (of all people) you gave 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙈𝙪𝙘𝙘𝙞 an advance copy might be a step (maybe a bridge) too far (over the River Kwai or nah). 🧐😆 Appears I should consider muting your account for another ~36.25 hours. 🤷‍♀️🤔

I have been waiting for this moment! Thank you @Scaramucci and @DeidreScaramuc2 True friends of Gabriel Allon!

@LassinMI I suspect you know you're an embarrassment. Move along and sit with it.

@CatCaliban @SamAntar Ohh. So no one came forward to verify her story. Got it.

@thedustinmore @TheRickWilson 🙄

@TheRickWilson That's your response to someone's passing. Wow. I wonder who will testify for you when your time comes.

Well, then.

@RossCostantini @afalkhatib Dude, wacky malignant shit like this happens in the U.S. on a regular basis, cops or ICE, etc. Unlawful killing in this scenario? Easy peesy. Ahmed maybe made the lethal mistake of expressing frustration at a soldier who demanded what amounted to magic and 'back talked'. Boom.🤷‍♀️

@afalkhatib So, he was asked why he had stopped and then they shot him in the head? Yeh, sounds legit. Sure there's nothing else omitted there

The father of a 26‑year‑old truck driver named Ahmed Saleem, who was killed in the Gaza Strip, recorded a video in Hebrew during a demonstration with the local truck drivers’ association and private‑sector merchants. Speaking directly to Israelis and their government in Hebrew, he says his son was shot in the head by an IDF soldier while transporting cargo from the Kerem Shalom Crossing into Gaza. The dad described how his son’s truck broke down shortly after leaving the crossing. When Ahmed Saleem stepped out to inspect the problem and prevent a bottleneck for the 20‑truck convoy behind him, an Israeli soldier approached and asked why he had stopped. After the young driver explained he was fixing the truck, the soldier allegedly shot and killed him on the spot. The father further stresses that his son had been an Israeli‑vetted, approved, and certified driver at the Kerem Shalom crossing for seven years. Whether this killing was deliberate, accidental, or something else, it reflects a broader pattern of horrors that Gazans continue to face at the hands of some Israeli soldiers. It demands a serious investigation: how could an Israeli‑approved driver be killed for a mechanical failure, especially when these trucks are old, unreliable, and prone to breakdowns? And what does it say about IDF operating procedures if they cannot accommodate such a basic, predictable scenario? Source: Al Arabiya (Dubai, UAE)

BREAKING NYT: The Trump admin just issued subpoenas to several journalists for The New York Times, after the outlet reported on security concerns involving Trump's Qatari-gifted Air Force One. The subpoenas seek to force the reporters to testify before a federal grand jury on Wednesday. nytimes.com/2026/07/11/bus…

@LassinMI @SamAntar G-d🙏 spare me more pretenses. Even were you serious, it'd still be an act of burden-shifting, presenting as if entitled to a briefing, etc. My recommendation to all who engage in rhetorical shenanigans is to avoid logic fallacies like ☢️-☣️, etc. Pretend one you respect is 👁.

@CatCaliban @SamAntar Did anyone come forward to support her claim? We have people in society that make things up all the time for attention.

@gtconway3d Surely that's a civil infraction. 🤔🤷‍♀️

Andrew, you are under arrest for stating the obvious

@JennifeReid @MrBeauDiddles @HunterBiden @POTUS Oh, there's a point — more than one, incl. but not limited to🗡. Not reality-based or valid points, mind ye, but MAliGnAnt* Clan/Cult members are rarely known for such. They prefer wishcasting... anything to help the defensive shield and 💩 offensive. *+/- 5% margin of error

@MrBeauDiddles @CatCaliban @HunterBiden @POTUS There is no point to this post.

I am grateful that the rule of law prevailed in my defamation case against Patrick Byrne. The court’s order which you can read for yourselves speaks for itself. “the most plausible explanation is that Defendant is not credible, fabricates awesome and farfetched narratives to garner attention in the media, and fabricated the defamatory story at issue in this case to damage Plaintiff’s reputation.” (Page 14 of the order.)

@LassinMI @SamAntar You aren't in a good position to declare "no witness[es]" as though fact. Obviously, YOU are a "who" wanting to declare that she "make[s] things up for attention [of any kind, because I guess she's a masochistic fabulist?]". That's the easiest exit ramp to avoid (whatever).🤷‍♀️🤔

@CatCaliban @SamAntar No witness, who is to say she doesn't make things up for attention?

@RadioFreeTom @POTUS: "Why is Meanie Maggie so NASTY? Why won't she ADORE me? I've tried over and over again to convince her that I'm the Greatest, Most Wonderful EVER and she refuses to LOVE me!! It's NOT FAIR! She's just like the others! I HATE her!" 🤦‍♀️ TY @TheTweetOfGod for @maggieNYT ./?

Kinda hard to read this and then think that cognitive test went well

@LassinMI @SamAntar So? It's a near 💯% well-known thing that any given community or allied group's automated defense systems activate when a perp is one of their own. Those claiming it wrong to mention "Hasidic" were reactionary and foolish. Bet few would've ~😡-😤-😱~ had she noted he was Black.

@CatCaliban @SamAntar She also accused Jewish men of trying to run down women in NYC.

@MrBeauDiddles @HunterBiden @POTUS Did you not truly not see the ironic 🧊berg before you plowed into it? It may be you're so far gone that you can kid yourself that only others are engaging in diversion and deflection. But these replies indicate there's little wiggle room for reasonable doubt. You're a Trunt.

@CatCaliban @HunterBiden @POTUS Nice deflection, but that’s not the point of this post
