@atrupar The country was at war through entirety of Obama’s presidency. Did he not take any weekends off?

the country is at war and the president is peacing out for another weekend at his private club in Florida that he'll spend with his paying customers
English
@Robert_E_Kelly @atrupar Um, yes. Losing side pays reparations. That’s how the war works.
English
So we’re asking Iran to pay for our war-of-choice bombing of them? Am I understanding that correctly?
lol
This is what you get when your movement is dominated by podcasters and grifters
Aaron Rupar@atrupar
Rep. Scott Perry: "I would actually like to see Iran pay for this. Whether it's $20 billion or $200 billion, whatever it is. Look, they've been at war with us for 47 years and it's finally being ended by the president, which is awesome, but it comes at a cost. They have resources. They could pay that bill."

@MollyJongFast @atrupar Based on how long it took to clean up NY after recent snowstorms, you are probably right 😜
English
Actually shoveling snow is illegal in New York City
Aaron Rupar@atrupar
Katie Britt: "You can't go to work, you can't shovel snow in New York City without an ID"
English
@BohuslavskaKate @atrupar If you don’t understand the strategy, the problem is with you, not the strategy 😜
English
I don't fucking know what is going on anymore. This strategy is not strateging.

U.S. Sen. Markwayne Mullin, who is awaiting a confirmation hearing to become President Donald Trump’s Secretary of Homeland Security, has a political action committee that has shelled out nearly $1.5 million since 2021 for expenses including flights on private jets, limousine rentals, golf outings, clothing and outdoor gear, luxury hotel stays, tickets to Washington Nationals baseball games and bar

@TRHLofficial What is this “draft” you are speaking of? We haven’t had that since Vietnam.
English
@TVietor08 @atrupar @RepJasonCrow How about new new Iranian leadership which will replace current new leadership after they are all dead?
English
Great summation by @RepJasonCrow of why Iran's new leadership is actually worse and more dangerous than the old crew
Aaron Rupar@atrupar
CROW: So we're less certain of the positions of Iranian leadership and their intentions than we were 60 days ago, correct? GABBARD: That's an accurate assessment

@mysteriouskat Nah, when someone posts on a heated topic knowing that it will piss off a large group, it’s called “rage baiting”. It’s a type of sport, competing on how many people you can piss off 😜
English
When someone posts on a heated topic, something that will piss off a large number of people but rile up another group, they become somewhat of a warrior, hyping themselves up so that they can endure the pile-on, fundementally changing who they are & how they communicate.
English
1. This is a lie. The US knew about the attack in advance.
2. It’s like good cop bad cop but the good cop is bipolar and has no idea what he’s doing

Statement from President Trump on South Pars Gas Field:
English
Blow up energy assets all over the middle east >>> ???? >>>> Iran stops doing terrorist stuff and their people are free.

Iran appears to have scored a successful hit in the vicinity of Israel's Haifa oil refinery moments ago.
English
@margbrennan @atrupar I mean, Iranians are religious fanatics, so makes total sense
English
The religious references as justification for war continue....

Hegseth accuses Iran of exporting "a violent, messianic Islamist ideology chasing some sort of apocalyptic endgame"
English
@mysteriouskat @louistheroux You mean about how loved, protected and being taken care of they feel? Yeah, that would be a good show.
English
I think there's an interesting documentary to be made about the women who have relationships with red pill men, @louistheroux.
English
Bongino: They have no balls so they attack everyone else. I call this “the Donald Trump has no agency theory.” Trump has the ability to think for himself. You do not know jack squat about this guy if you think he is getting dog walked by anyone. He’s the one walking the damn dog!
English
@superseats @atrupar Nope. BLS job numbers count people who are working, not open jobs. As illegals leave, job numbers decrease.
English
@JetSetGent @atrupar So no new jobs is good? Shouldn’t there be millions of jobs created by booting the illegals?
English
Powell: "The thing a good number of people on the committee are concerned about is the very very low level of job creation. If you adjust what has been the trend job creation over the past 6 months for what we think is the overstatement due to overcounting, effectively there is 0 net job creation in the private sector"
English
@Acyn Wonderful. Also, it’s not a function of federal government to provide home care.
English
AOC: We rely on hundreds of thousands of home care workers across the country. This labor force is going to expand a lot as more of our parents reach older age, and these folks need to be paid a fair wage.
These are some of the most exploited workers in the country. Oftentimes, their shifts are extremely long, and they have to work in very tough conditions. We need home healthcare workers to be paid a fair wage so that people can age with dignity and receive care at home with dignity
English
@TheChiefNerd The whole “imminent threat” talk is nonsense. We are not obliged to wait until the day before the enemy is ready to strike. We strike to keep them from acquiring the CAPABILITY to strike us
English
🚨 Joe Kent on Why He Believes Iran Was Not an ‘Imminent Threat’
“The Israelis drove the decision to take this action, which we knew would set off a series of events because the Iranians would retaliate.”
English
@Acyn And what is overall inflation? Oh, it’s pretty low, but let’s not talk about that 🙄
English
Powell: "While job gains have remained low, the unemployment rate has been little changed in recent months, and inflation remains somewhat elevated"
English
Powell: "These elevated readings largely reflect inflation in the goods sector, which has been boosted by the effects of tariffs"
