Oh how the cultists used to cheer at his campaign rallies when he said this.

For our Canadian democracy ally, new sanctions. For our Chinese autocratic adversary, nothing.

Enten on polling for Trump's war on Iran: "Historically unpopular is the phrase I'd use. The war was unpopular to start & it's become even less popular... 40 points underwater!... more than 2 in 3 Americans say the Iran was not worth it... even less than the 40% who said the Iraq war was worth it."

The House will pass a $12 billion bailout for farmers suffering from high fuel & fertilizer prices caused by the Iran War, expensive equipment & parts caused by tariffs, and lower sales prices for commodities due to trade disputes with China. But the GOP is fighting communism!

NEW: 🇺🇸 Trump has become the worst-spending U.S. President in history, He's on track to add another ~$10T to the national debt. This beats the previous record of $7.8T, set by Trump in his first term…. Interest payments will eventually be the highest national expense.

In one week, two people were killed by ICE in broad daylight. Now the Trump administration is blocking the FBI from investigating any ICE-related confrontation. And letting DHS investigate themselves. This doesn't create accountability or improve public safety. It will only bring more excessive force and less accountability.

Minnesota DFL Senate candidate @peggyflanagan talks with WCPT's Richard Chew about the millions in special interest spending: FLANAGAN: "Deciding to not take a dime of corporate PAC money in this campaign was one of the easiest decisions that I've ever made."

With all the attention on the race for governor, let's not forget about what's happening in the legislature. This is the first fully post-Gerrymander election in Wisconsin, since Republicans rigged the maps in 2011.

Walter Cronkite: After liberating execution camps… Germans (who cried) they didn’t know…were as as guilty as Nazis…because they applauded when Hitler shut down (media) and said, ‘We don’t need to know. We trust our government...’ It’s our duty to know.

I asked Francesca Hong about "the establishment." Q: What does the word "establishment" mean to you? A:

Lamine Yamal consolando a Lionel Messi tras el triunfo de España sobre Argentina en la final de la Copa Mundial de la FIFA. 🗣️ Lamine Yamal: “Ganar la Copa del Mundo debería haber sido el momento más feliz de mi vida, pero cuando vi a Leo allí de pie después del pitido final, se me rompió el corazón. Por unos segundos, olvidé que éramos rivales. Solo vi al hombre que me hizo enamorarme del fútbol.” “Me acerqué a él porque ninguna leyenda debería abandonar un escenario así sintiéndose sola. Este es el mismo Lionel Messi que inspiró a toda una generación a soñar, el mismo hombre cuyo nombre gritaban todos los niños mientras jugaban en la calle. Verlo con el corazón roto no fue nada fácil.” “Le dije: ‘Gracias’. No por esta noche, sino porque sin ti, no sé si hoy estaría aquí. Antes de que tuviera la edad suficiente para entender el fútbol, tú ya habías cambiado mi vida. Les diste a chicos como yo la oportunidad de creer que la magia era real.” “A los 39 años seguía cargando con Argentina, seguía pidiendo el balón, seguía decidiendo partidos y seguía atemorizando a los mejores defensores del mundo. A la mayoría de los jugadores se les recuerda por lo que hicieron hace años. Messi seguía haciendo historia en el presente. Eso merece mucho más que aplausos; merece un respeto eterno.” “El mundo celebrará a España, y debe hacerlo porque nos ganamos este título. Pero no permitan que un solo resultado les haga olvidar todo lo que Messi le dio a este Mundial. Cada vez que tocaba el balón, sentías que algo imposible estaba a punto de suceder. Ese es un regalo que muy pocos futbolistas le han dado a este deporte.” “Cuando lo abracé, no estaba consolando a alguien que había fracasado. Estaba abrazando al mejor jugador que ha visto mi generación. Las finales se ganan o se pierden, los trofeos cambian de manos, pero una grandeza como la de Lionel Messi le pertenece al fútbol para siempre.” “Algún día la gente me preguntará cómo fue enfrentar a Lionel Messi en una final de la Copa del Mundo. No empezaré hablando del trofeo. Les diré que compartí la cancha con mi ídolo, que lo miré a los ojos después del pitido final y que le di las gracias por cambiar el fútbol para siempre. Ese momento permanecerá conmigo el resto de mi vida.”

Wow! Crude Oil only has 43 days of supply left in the U.S. This is the lowest inventory in 45 years, thanks to Trump’s stupid war in Iran. He’s literally draining our oil reserves. Remember when he criticized Biden for releasing oil from the reserves? He’s done so much worse.

So everyone in the Capitol on 1/6/2021 should’ve been shot dead? Is that his argument?

Republican politicians refuse to say NO to Trump, and it's making your city or town more dangerous. This November, it's ICE or us.

HOMAN: We want the American people to see what the ICE officer sees when he takes action REPORTER: But then why did the Trump administration roll back what the Biden administration was trying do to get body cams on officers? HOMAN: Look, that's a question above me

Q: "On the ICE officer in Maine, is there any more clarity on how he got his job considering the vetting concerns that his wife raised?" Homan: "That's a question for ICE…We'll let the investigation play out. I'm not gonna comment on the investigation as it's ongoing."
