Perhaps Hegseth's trip will distract him from bombing another elementary school in Iran.
Shadow of Ezra@ShadowofEzra
Thomas Massie says Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is personally going to visit Kentucky to make sure he loses his election due to the threat he poses against the global elites. Massie says the risk he poses is so severe that Pete Hegseth has to come during a war to make sure the AIPAC candidate wins. “This shows how serious this is to the global elite that I lose.”

You can’t legally shoot someone for punching you one time in the face. Especially after intentionally trying to incite violence.
FearBuck@FearedBuck
ChudTheBuilder shot a man who attacked him outside a courthouse in Clarksville & accidentally grazed himself in the process. Before it escalated, he asked the man if he was going to “chimp out” the man then walked up & sucker punched him. It is unclear if the man survived.

@RepJeffries The only thing haunting the nation are your constant displays of stupidity.

The ghosts of the confederacy have afflicted the Supreme Court.
And are haunting the nation.
Shameful.

A losing presidential candidate calling for the end of the constitutional process for selecting a President feels awfully fascisty
Pat Adams@PatAdams96
Kamala Harris is now calling for Democrats to hold a “No Bad Idea Brainstorm” where they discuss: - Abolishing the Electoral College - Packing the Supreme Court - Making Puerto Rico and D.C. states “We’ve got to neutralize these red states from cheating!”

When I was a student at UT, I registered voters for Obama’s 2008 campaign — a campaign of hope.
President Obama just showed up at UT and told young Texans: “Now you have the chance to join a campaign of hope.”

Almost a third of the membership of the Congressional Black Caucus are at risk of losing their seats through the 2028 election cycle as Republicans in southern states where they control the legislature move swiftly to redraw congressional maps. abcnews.link/KhpDUZx

@JoJoFromJerz The only thing that makes sense is that he has nothing to do with it.

@jdfromthe504 The world is not a basketball court. The Governor and AG aren’t going anywhere.

Win or lose…Black people in Louisiana are inspiring the nation with the recall of Jeff Landry and Liz Murrill. I’ve always been proud to be from New Orleans but I’m starting to feel proud of being from Louisiana as well.
That being said…let’s run these clowns out the paint.

@RepLuna @DNIGabbard @CIADirector Even if they bring them back, they won’t return all of them.
There should be immediate prosecutions of all spies involved.

The CIA has 24 hours to return the documents to Tulsi Gabbard’s office or else I will make a motion to issue a subpoena. These documents have been requested by Congress. @DNIGabbard @CIADirector

🚨TRUMP JUST CALLED TWO FEMALE REPORTERS “STUPID”… AGAIN
In case anyone’s keeping count: Today alone, he called not one, but TWO female reporters “stupid” to their faces.
This isn’t a one-off.
He’s going to keep doing it.
He’s going to start calling them far worse.
Because nobody in that room — or in his own party — has the spine to stop him.
When does the press corps finally push back?
Do YOU think this is acceptable behavior from the President of the United States?
YES or NO?

Marshawn stood up and had the courage to tell lawmakers the truth behind this redistricting.
People see what this push is about, when power is being protected at their expense. We cannot stay quiet.
The Root@TheRoot
A Louisiana resident who identified himself as Marshawn delivered a fiery, emotional speech to lawmakers during a state Senate hearing over redistricting Monday, accusing Republicans of trying to “cheat” Black voters out of political power.

@MarkWarner How much money did you vote to send to Ukraine?
Or to overseas countries through USAID?

$1 billion for a ballroom.
$13 million for a reflecting pool paint job… executed by a contractor hand-picked by Trump.
And no progress on lowering costs at all.

@CortesSteve @NewsNationOB @LelandVittert Sometimes doing the right thing doesn’t warrant a consensus.

This Mideast war was not sold to the American people before the interventionism.
George W. Bush was a horrific president, but he had the decency to sell the Iraq war fully to the people before it started.

Kamala says Dems need to “brainstorm” expanding the Supreme Court, abolishing the electoral college, & making Puerto Rico & Washington, DC states. As soon as Dems have the White House and senate control again, they will end the filibuster and do this.

Claiming Israel trains dogs to rape Palestinians is modern day blood libel — propaganda pushed as more horrific details emerge about Hamas’ systematic torture on Oct. 7.
For being Jewish — Hamas raped a woman and burnt half of her face off in front of her husband; shoved nails, metal, and sharp objects into Israeli women; forced family members to sexually assault each other so that if they survived they would be traumatized by the sight of each other; raped corpses; the list goes on.
Distracting from these atrocities and smearing Israel while victims still fight for acknowledgment is sickening.

Prior to letting the Israelis lead us into this war, President Trump was actually poised to cut a better deal than the JCPOA (aka the Obama Iran deal).
The Iranians feared and respected Trump in a way they never respected Obama—he took out the terror mastermind Qasem Soleimani, yet was prudent enough not to get sucked into the quicksand of another Middle Eastern quagmire that would only favor Iran and strengthen its hardliners.
That’s why, as soon as he returned to office in January 2025, the Iranians stopped their proxies from attacking us and were immediately open to negotiations.
President Trump can still correct course, but he has to break the current stalemate cycle we are in: Get us out of the military standoff. Restrain the Israelis. Leverage the potential of sanctions relief to open the Strait of Hormuz and secure a new deal on the nuclear issue.
Marco Foster@MarcoFoster_
President Obama on Iran: “We pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. There’s no dispute that it worked and we didn’t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz”
