Sen. John Kennedy: "The Democrats offered to open up everything but ICE. Ted and I said, 'Ok, let's accept their offer,' and then at the same time we would offer a bill for reconciliation where we don't need any Democratic votes to do whatever we wanted to do with ICE. That way we're out of the shutdown and DHS is back open. Thune submitted that to President Trump. He said, 'No. No deals with the Democrats.' So we're back to square one."

@NathanKroenung @mehdirhasan Tell me, what policy concessions did she make to Cheney? You know what, I’ll answer that for you, because you are clearly an idiot. Cheney got zero policy concessions. None. She simply gave her support because anyone with an ounce of awareness could see how bad Trump II would be

@JosherSquasher @mehdirhasan Seems like you are the one ignoring reality. Im referring to a prime time news interview and you are well aktually page 65 subsection 45 paragraph 7. Did she not pal around with Cheney. She obviously jockeyed to the right of trump.

@NathanKroenung @mehdirhasan lol you can fuck all the way off if you think ANYONE on the Dem side was asking or campaigning on any of this. Harris was pretty clear about what she was promising. It’s all there in black and white. You just heard what you wanted to hear.

@JosherSquasher @mehdirhasan Argue with Anderson Cooper softball interview ya goon. Maybe Dems will give ICE a raise like they did with the police. You get everything you ask for and then some and still have the audacity to complain

@mcvcmv @exfiltrance @mehdirhasan Ok, what’s your analysis of the fact that inflation was one of the biggest factors to voters, yet the entire economic policy of the guy they voted for was “tariffs”. Tariffs were 100% of his economic promises. Yet tariffs are obviously inflationary. What’s your analysis?

@JosherSquasher @exfiltrance @mehdirhasan Advice: 1. Blaming the electorate never leads useful/prescriptive analysis 2. If one’s biggest issues are being “tough on immigration” for example, they will rarely be convinced that the dem is the right candidate. They aren’t the voter to waste resources and messaging on.

@JosherSquasher @mehdirhasan She ran on completing the wall and promised to be tougher on immigration than Trump. Having the most lethal military. Toured with Cheney while funding a genocide. It’s not a matter of me just thinking that, it’s her own actions and words. You got what you voted for

@exfiltrance @mehdirhasan Oh, look, a woman from the party that is viewed as the weaker party on national defense used language to assure voters she would not be a liability. This clearly means she would start a meaningless war with Iran just like Trump.

🚨BREAKING: MAGA is outraged over an episode of “The Pitt”… claiming it “demonizes” ICE agents. Meanwhile… here in real life… A sitting Chicago elected official, Jessie Fuentes, walks into a hospital, sees Border Patrol detaining an injured man, and does something pretty radical… she asks a simple question: “Do you have a warrant?” That’s it. That’s the “crime.” Because seconds later, she’s grabbed, shoved, and put in handcuffs… inside a hospital… for asking if the Constitution still exists. Agents were holding a man in a hospital bed, trying to arrest him, when his leg was broken, needed surgery, and was still being detained by agents, while lawyers initially couldn’t reach him. An elected official asked for a judicial warrant, and instead of producing one, they arrested her. They didn’t explain the law she broke… because there wasn’t one. And MAGA is watching a scripted TV episode, calling that “unfair” to ICE? Be serious. The show isn’t “demonizing” ICE, it’s depicting what people are literally recording on their phones. They’re not mad because it’s inaccurate… they’re mad because it’s recognizable. Because once you see it, you can’t unsee it… and suddenly “it’s just a TV show” doesn’t hold up when reality looks exactly the same.

Just going to keep posting this to counter the ridiculous bullshit until someone makes me stop. The Special Counsel investigation uncovered extensive criminal activity •The investigation produced 37 indictments; seven guilty pleas or convictions; and compelling evidence that the president obstructed justice on multiple occasions. Mueller also uncovered and referred 14 criminal matters to other components of the Department of Justice. •Trump associates repeatedly lied to investigators about their contacts with Russians, and President Trump refused to answer questions about his efforts to impede federal proceedings and influence the testimony of witnesses. •A statement signed by over 1,000 former federal prosecutors concluded that if any other American engaged in the same efforts to impede federal proceedings the way Trump did, they would likely be indicted for multiple charges of obstruction of justice.   Russia engaged in extensive attacks on the U.S. election system in 2016 •Russian interference in the 2016 election was “sweeping and systemic.”[1] •Major attack avenues included a social media “information warfare” campaign that “favored” candidate Trump[2] and the hacking of Clinton campaign-related databases and release of stolen materials through Russian-created entities and Wikileaks.[3] •Russia also targeted databases in many states related to administering elections gaining access to information for millions of registered voters.[4]   The investigation “identified numerous links between the Russian government and the Trump Campaign” and established that the Trump Campaign “showed interest in WikiLeaks's releases of documents and welcomed their potential to damage candidate Clinton”  •In 2015 and 2016, Michael Cohen pursued a hotel/residence project in Moscow on behalf of Trump while he was campaigning for President.[5]Then-candidate Trump personally signed a letter of intent. •Senior members of the Trump campaign, including Paul Manafort, Donald Trump, Jr., and Jared Kushner took a June 9, 2016, meeting with Russian nationals at Trump Tower, New York, after outreach from an intermediary informed Trump, Jr., that the Russians had derogatory information on Clinton that was “part of Russia and its government’s support for Mr. Trump.”[6] •Beginning in June 2016, a Trump associate “forecast to senior [Trump] Campaign officials that WikiLeaks would release information damaging to candidate Clinton.”[7] A section of the Report that remains heavily redacted suggests that Roger Stone was this associate and that he had significant contacts with the campaign about Wikileaks.[8] •The Report described multiple occasions where Trump associates lied to investigators about Trump associate contacts with Russia. Trump associates George Papadopoulos, Rick Gates, Michael Flynn, and Michael Cohen all admitted that they made false statements to federal investigators or to Congress about their contacts. In addition, Roger Stone faces trial this fall for obstruction of justice, five counts of making false statements, and one count of witness tampering. •The Report contains no evidence that any Trump campaign official reported their contacts with Russia or WikiLeaks to U.S. law enforcement authorities during the campaign or presidential transition, despite public reports on Russian hacking starting in June 2016 and candidate Trump’s August 2016 intelligence briefing warning him that Russia was seeking to interfere in the election. •The Report raised questions about why Trump associates and then-candidate Trump repeatedly asserted Trump had no connections to Russia.[9]

In a sudden turn of events, US 12-month inflation expectations have surged to 5.2%, the highest level since March 2023. In just 3 weeks, markets have gone from pricing-in rate cuts to rate hikes.
