@JoJoFromJerz I really don’t have sympathy for the Japanese PM. She enjoyed fashioning herself as a MAGA type, and she should know this is the price. Sitting there enduring his bull 💩.

@mmpadellan And yet…..someone wants to buy 12 combat guns…..no ID necessary. Wink wink
English
Over the course of my life, I have shoveled snow dozens of times, and not ONCE have I ever needed an ID. Never needed a passport to go to work either.
Hell, my drivers' license is sufficient to board a plane as long as I'm flying within the continental U.S.
These jackasses are doing a verbal sleight-of-hand. They keep saying "You can't do ___ without an ID," to make it seem like DEMs are being unreasonable.
"Oh, why are you so opposed to voter ID? You need an ID to buy cigarettes / buy beer / watch a sunset."
But they're not telling the whole story, they think everybody's dumb: they want you to THINK they're just talking about drivers' licenses as ID. They're NOT.
Their stupid "SAVE Act" does not find drivers' licenses, college IDs, or even military IDs as acceptable -- you need a passport. That costs $165. And in order to get a passport, you need a certified birth certificate.
So THAT is a big difference, isn't it?
Drivers' license to buy beer? Fine, no prob.
Drivers' license to vote? Sure, I have that.
BIRTH CERTIFICATE AND PASSPORT TO VOTE?
Now you have to make an appointment to apply for a copy of your birth certificate, then get passport picture taken, PAY $165 for passport, wait 4-6 weeks.
If you had to do all that to buy a beer, buy a pack of cigarettes, or shovel snow, you'd rightly be pissed. Now apply that to voting.
They're ALSO not saying how their unconstitutional POLL TAX bill does away with mail-in ballots.
It's not a voter ID bill.
It's a voter suppression bill.

If you call yourself a "humanitarian," but cannot acknowledge the inhumanity of the regime in Iran, you're not a humanitarian.

BREAKING - President Trump has just announced that the United States has completely cut off all trade with Spain after leftist Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez refused to support the United States and allow American forces to use their military bases.

@electionsjoe Schumer sucks, yes, but the headline is literally that he is not committing to voting *for* Mullin.
English
@electionsjoe Worse than Afghanistan (which, mind you, was a defensive response with NATO) and far far worse than Iraq. This war is actually even more morally bankrupt.

He really started another Afghanistan didn't he

TRUMP: NO DEAL WITH IRAN EXCEPT UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER
English
@KeithOlbermann Even better Keith: let’s send all the pardoned J6 “patriots” to Iran.
English
You know what would be right and just?
Have our new war in Iran fought by our new patriotic triumphant flag-waving unbeatable brave American heroes who so inspired us at the State of the Union:
The Olympic winning U.S. Hockey Team! #GeneralTkachuk #GeneralHughes

@_rotimia @AJentleson Crockett or Talarico would be galaxies better than any Republican. But how can one imply that Crockett represents the past?
English
The first serious 2028 contender willing to have some strength and endorse Talarico is someone to watch. If Talarico wins the primary, it’s a small but real data point in the proxy fight between the Democratic Party of the failed past and the one of the future trying to emerge.

@ChrisDJackson @MEVANS72 And when he finally ended one, media and the public gave him flack for it. Despite lifting 120,000 people out in a month. They called it “his Vietnam.” It wasn’t even close.
English
Good time to re-up this.
Joe Biden was the actual peace president. No new wars. Alliances rebuilt. Stability restored.
Americans were sold a false narrative and bought it.
Now the consequences are global and they are catastrophic.
Never forget who told you what and why.
English
@meiselasb Yeah…we can hear from Bill himself that Trump was innocent.
English
It’s pretty telling that Republicans still have not released the video depositions of Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton.
English
@meiselasb @MaxwellFrostFL And pretty interesting that in place of said videos they’re starting a war. Quite the distraction.

@davidfrum Did Iran’s oppressed people want schools nominee and children killed? Their disgust of their regime does not mean, nor do they want, a war.
English
If you're Never Trump, don't let justified anxieties about Trump's abuses of power deafen you to pleas for help from the oppressed people of Iran - or memories of Iran's past (and intended future) aggressions against the United States and US allies.

@HenMazzig Paper tiger argument. Being against this war is not equivalent to being pro-Iran regime. No more than being against Israel’s war against Gaza means being anti-Israel. But then again you believe that too.
English
Gentle reminder that the regime in Iran slaughtered over 40,000 Iranians last month for protesting.
They raped, tortured, and held bodies hostage for ransom.
That’s the regime you’re defending when you oppose the war.

@MrPitbull07 That’s an 8% tip. How could you possibly think it’s sufficient?
English
We went to a dinner as a group and had a $500 bill. We tipped $40. We were happy we can be able to give our server something, but her reaction was the opposite. She told us she assumed we're going to give her at least $120. When we asked for the manager, she said she was just joking, but she wasn't smiling at all. Idk, but is $40 tip enough for $500 bill? I just feel like expecting $120 is not realistic.

So let me get this straight: the regime in Iran is targeting Kuwait's airport, Dubai’s hotels, Bahrain, Jordan, USA bases and consulate, and Israeli civilians— but Israel and the US are the “rogue countries” that must be stopped? Stop what?
The regime in Iran gets to slaughter all the civilians they like, and anyone who interferes is evil? Who decided that?
Rep. Ilhan Omar@Ilhan
Statement from Rep. Ilhan Omar on Trump’s Illegal War on Iran: “President Trump is unilaterally dragging this nation into an illegal and unjustified war with Iran without congressional authorization, without a clear objective, and without any imminent threat to the United States. This is a reckless abuse of power that puts both innocent civilians and American lives on the line for a conflict the American people do not want. “As someone who has survived the horrors of war, I know that bombs do not build peace or create stability. Military strikes will not make us safer; they will inflame tensions and push the region further into chaos. When we abandon diplomacy, we choose destruction. “We know who will bear the cost of this decision: innocent civilians caught in the crossfire and our young service members sent into harm’s way. This is the devastating human toll of another regime-change war. Already, children and families are paying with their lives. There is no moral or strategic justification for this bloodshed. “The American people are exhausted by endless wars built on false promises and paid for with American and foreign lives. Congress must reassert its constitutional authority. We must vote immediately on the War Powers resolution authored by Reps. Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie. This unlawful operation must end immediately."

@BostonGlobe Sounds cool but, no, he can’t “ban” them from attending certain universities. Maybe he had one too many scotches when he blurted that.
English
The Pentagon will forbid members of the military from attending Columbia, Yale, Brown, and other universities amid a campaign to cut ties with institutions that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth called “factories of anti-American resentment.” trib.al/By7AX2Y

@JamieStelter I tried getting an answer this morning and again this afternoon about the MTA.info mobile site. No answer. Hope you can find out for us.
John@GioFedericoIII
@MTA What’s going on with your website? No service info on the home page. Major delays on my commute this morning and no way to find out what’s going on. Subway info missing.

Today, MTA Construction & Development released its latest Year in Review & Strategic Plan.
In 2025 alone, the agency generated $1.2 billion in savings—bringing its total savings to more than $4 billion since its creation in 2020.
