Tim Dillon on MAGA: “It’s the greatest con in history, truly. To run as America First and you’re gonna take care of America and then turn around and go all of these things daycare, Medicare, we have nothing to do with that, we’re fighting wars. It is the greatest scam in history”

If this is an honest question, I’d say: Americans are rooting against America because we facilitated a genocide and followed it with a surprise attack on a girls elementary school followed by attacks on universities, medical centers, more schools, a world famous pharmaceutical research center, a volley ball team, an unfinished bridge we claimed was transporting weapons and then a nuclear power plant. We are now promising endless attacks on civilian infrastructure. We are hunting and targeting anyone who might be involved in ceasefire negotiations. Most people do not pay enough attention to have absorbed all the propaganda about the U.S. and Iran. So people coming to this fresh see us for what we are: absolute monsters. And monsters must be stopped. That’s why people are rooting against us and for civilization to prevail.
Shaun Maguire@shaunmmaguire

How did we get to the point Where so many Americans are rooting against America?

Jeffries, who held off a war powers resolution long enough for Trump go start the war before it came to a vote, does not condemn Trump’s attack in his initial response. The party leadership, as we reported last week, is eager to see Trump launch this war
Jake Sherman@JakeSherman

NEW -- STATEMENT FROM HOUSE MINORITY LEADER @RepJeffries "The Trump administration must explain itself to the American people and Congress immediately, provide an ironclad justification for this act of war, clearly define the national security objective and articulate a plan to avoid another costly, prolonged military quagmire in the Middle East."

@nypost Two weeks ago, Charlie Gasparino wrote that the hundreds of girls ad boys brutalized and raped in the Epstein files had “little substance.” Why are journalists protecting pedos and not the children? @CGasparino @FoxBusiness @CFR_org @EconClubNY @FoxNews

Just to memorialize this — I don’t know how I got something like 15,000 new followers today but it feels a little fishy

Every time Democrats lose, we have some type of autopsy as if it’s a messaging issue. What we need is actual policies that are going to stand with the working class. Taxing billionaires. Medicare for All. $10/day childcare. Fighting for a living wage. Opposing overseas wars. Opposing bloated defense budgets.

Prince Andrew was just arrested. This was the metric I established for success of the Epstein Files Transparency Act that @RepRoKhanna and I got passed. Now we need JUSTICE in the United States. It’s time for @AGPamBondi and @FBIDirectorKash to act!

I’m disgusted by the amount of hate Pam Bondi is getting at the moment. It’s nowhere near enough, and we can do better.

DOJ redacted information necessary to identify who sent Epstein the “torture video email.” @RepRoKhanna and I first discovered his name and released it Monday. Today he resigns.

DP World Chairman and Chief Executive Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem resigned from the Dubai-based global ports operator after documents released by the Justice Department showed he had ties to Jeffrey Epstein on.wsj.com/4ccrwGv

Trump’s “Justice” department illegally covered up the name of at least one co-conspirator to CHILD sex trafficking, and got caught red handed. Blame Bondi/Patel/Bongino all you want, but the bottom line is that the buck stops with Trump. He did this.

Within hours of the Epstein file release, a superPAC funded by Israel-first billionaires Miriam Adelson, Paul Singer, and John Paulson, who himself appears in Epstein’s black book, bought another $800,000 of TV ads against me. I’ll still win, but if I lose, it was worth it.

Day 3 of radio silence from Michael Tracey. Seems like only yesterday that he and fellow disgraced former journalist Matt Taibbi proudly announced their joint Pedophile Protection Series, in which they promised to go after the real criminals in this story-Epstein’s accusers and the reporters that have covered them. Do they scratch it, or throw the remaining scraps of their reputations on the dumpster fire that is their substack? Seems like a job for Crazy Walter Kirn. If he can’t come up with a batshit rant about how everyone behind this release is a treasonous trans that should be summarily executed by ICE, nobody can.
