Republicans Support Madness 🇺🇸

For the record, on November 13, 2024, at 9:09 PM, EST, I am writing: IMPEACH DONALD TRUMP. Just tryin' to beat the rush.

BREAKING 🇺🇦: Zelenskyy says Ukraine has “irrefutable evidence” Russia is providing intelligence to Iran. Reporters needs to question Trump about this.‼️reuters.com/world/europe/u…

Read part of a statement from AFGE’s president, the union for TSA agents. ICE is not helping TSA. It is creating more unnecessary chaos and confusion.

NEW: A judge will allow a lawsuit to go forward in part that accuses Elon Musk of unconstitutionally exercising executive power during his time in the Trump admin last year (yes that's right, *more* DOGE court action today) bloomberg.com/news/articles/… Ruling: assets.bwbx.io/documents/user…

NEW: For the first time, ProPublica has been able to quantify how many U.S. citizen children have been directly affected by Trump’s immigration crackdown: more than 11,000 kids had a parent detained — and that’s an undercount. 1/ 🧵 propublica.org/article/trump-…

Gail Slater, then-head of the DOJ's antitrust division, was reviewing HPE’s bid to acquire Juniper when she got a phone call from one of HPE's outside lawyers. “If you don’t approve this settlement, I will destroy you. I will destroy your job at the DOJ,” Mike Davis told her, according to a deposition by her former deputy reviewed by @WSJ. Davis denies making the call. Davis had been Slater’s friend for years and recommended her to Trump for the job. Now, he was advising HPE—and Slater and her team had proved resistant to the settlement terms he proposed. The fallout was swift. Within months, two of Slater’s deputies were pushed out of the Justice Department. By February, Slater was gone, too.

NEW: Kentucky family rejects $26 million offer to convert part of their farm into a data center despite the offer being about 10 times the going rate for farmland in the area. "If it's my way, I'll stay and hold and feed a nation. 26 million doesn't mean anything." "As long as I'm on this land, as long as it's feeding me, as long as it's taking care of me, there's nothing that can destroy me if I've got this land." Video: Local 12 WKRC

Portugal shut down their last remaining coal fired power plant and is fostering a renewable energy revolution. They could be completely renewable by 2040 if not sooner. It can be done. We have the solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate #climate #energy #renewables #go100re

Seven weeks after Hitler takes power, he sends SS troops to march into a meeting of the German parliament, Berlin, which approves the notorious Enabling Act, opening way for full Nazi dictatorship without any need to seek approval from legislature--today 1933:

Exactly what I had suggested this morning: * Trump put up a 15 point plan getting his way. * He sent it through intermediaries demanding it be met. * Iran ignored it. * Trump declared it progress. * Insiders traded on it. * No real progress. “Art of the deal!”

The war aim is now re-opening a strait that would not have been closed were it not for the war itself.

Joe Scarborough on the Republican shutdown: “Democrats have tried on ten separate occasions to get paychecks immediately to TSA employees, to our Coast Guard and to FEMA and ten times Republicans have voted no. They have voted to let our TSA agents keep working with no pay”

Sotomayor called out the solicitor general for quoting historical sources out of context 👀👀

Just a reminder that DOGE failed at every possible level: * At the micro level, they misread, misled and straight up lied about many of the 'savings'. They'd announce '500m saved!' and it would be some contract where the money was 98% already spent and already wasn't being renewed. * At the macro level, they didn't impact spending at all. The government spent more in 2025 than 2024. * At the institutional level, they didn't even convince the GOP that deficits are a problem worth caring about. The GOP only signature bill in 2025 exploded the deficit by trillions of dollars. * At a personal level, Elon got run out of town with his tail between his legs. The most notable public facts about the Cracked Coders are that one of them was a mini-Hitler, one was called 'big balls', and none of them bothered to learn how the government actually works before they set it on fire. They gutted a bunch of important institutions, fired whole departments at random, decimated medical research funding, killed millions of people dependent on USAID, and still failed at every possible level.

The US military is not supposed to do domestic law enforcement.

The “goal” of the Iran war is now reportedly to open the Strait of Hormuz, which was open before the war began

The most brutal 40-second summary of Trump's disastrous Iran war. James O'Brien completely dismantles the incoherent, contradictory lies being fed to the public about nuclear capabilities, regime change, and the Strait of Hormuz. Absolute humiliation.
