@Microinteracti1 Here’s the real part you don’t want to talk about: Within an hour the site that launched those missiles was probably destroyed - just like all the other sites and launchers Iran has used in the past 3-4 weeks.

Iran fired two ballistic missiles at Diego Garcia this week. That’s a tiny British-American dot in the Indian Ocean that most people couldn’t find on a map, which is precisely why it matters. The range was 4,000 kilometers. Four thousand. To put that in perspective, 4,000 kilometers from Tehran gets you to Rome. Athens. Cairo. Southern Europe is well within reach. London and Paris are further, but don’t sleep too well either. This is not what Tehran told anyone their missiles could do. So either they’ve been lying, or the intelligence community has been spectacularly wrong. Possibly both. One missile failed mid-flight, which is the kind of thing that happens when you build intercontinental weapons in a country that can’t keep the lights on. The other was shot down by a U.S. warship with an SM-3 interceptor, which Trump has already counted as winning the war. For the third time. Now here’s the bit nobody wants to say out loud: the strike came hours after Britain’s Keir Starmer gave Washington permission to use Diego Garcia to bomb Iranian missile sites. So Iran bombed the base we lent them. With a missile nobody knew they had. The war just acquired a completely new dimension. And the man in the White House is busy declaring victory. Iran decides when this stops. Not him. Gandalv / @Microinteracti1

And Brazil is run by cartels who operate international drug smuggling and human trafficking networks. They violate every countries laws and funnel billions into a tax free dark economy. The international death toll from this criminal enterprise is more than any war. So this man has no ground to stand on.

Brazil’s President Lula slams Trump: “We can’t have someone thinking he’s the owner of the world and wakes up in the morning: I'll take Greenland I'll take the Panama Canal I'll take Cuba I'll take Venezuela I’ll bomb Iran Countries have sovereignty. And it must be respected.”

As usual, DeNiro rants are rooted in a delusional fantasy world. It’s like he’s reading a bumper sticker. He has no thoughts about how to solve any of those problems and will deny that democrats bear a huge responsibility for all of them. And the biggest issue to the voters - illegal immigration - he just steers clear of it.

De Niro: It doesn’t matter if you’re a Democrat, a Republican, or an Independent—no one, no one voted for new wars. No one voted for higher prices at the pump. No one voted for higher prices in grocery stores. No one voted for higher prices in the housing market. No one voted for deporting our good neighbors, and no one voted for government-masked thugs shooting down our citizens in the streets.

@NHL @SeattleKraken It gives me no pleasure to say it, but this week the Kraken are going to blow their chances to get into the playoffs. Hope I'm wrong.

In his brief time with the @SeattleKraken, Bobby McMann has the longest goal streak in his career! 😮‍💨 Does the streak continue tonight?

@SaraMcuevas @LogicTruthJstce @ggreenwald Of course. In each of the 20-30,000 cases of protester executions Iran has been meticulously judicious about having fair trials. You're so right Gwen! We all thought it was just a desperate fundamentalist regime clinging to power by any means. How silly of us!

@LogicTruthJstce @ggreenwald @ThePretsky He confessed because they had him on video murdering 2 police officers. Facts matter.

This sounds like a very, very, very far distance from "unconditional surrender," but if Trump wants to declare victory and pretend that something important was accomplished so that he can pull out, the sooner the better. Let him throw a parade for himself if that will help.

@ggreenwald @Someoneguy19 @LogicTruthJstce Your Irans biggest cheerleader right now Glenn. And you’re in luck because rumor has it the new Ayatollah is gay. Don’t get all bashful on me. He’s just one of thousands that have been executed by your new favorite country. I’m sure there are made up charges for all of them.

@Someoneguy19 @LogicTruthJstce @ThePretsky He was charged with murdering two police officers with a machete. I don't trust Iranian justice but western media accounts have completely omitted this charge, leading uncritical people like you to be like: "oh, they executed him for protesting" without even knowing the facts.

@MattJames777 @ggreenwald "Police Officers" 😆😆😆😆😆

@ThePretsky @ggreenwald He killed 2 police officers.

@GavinNewsom @nickshirleyy owns you.

Donald Trump does not care about you.

@ggreenwald No Glenn, it’s “Cancel Culture is Evil” and “Here is a taste of your own medicine”. That’s how you end cancel culture.

From "Cancel Culture is Evil" to "Look at what this spouse of a politician posted when she was 15!!!!" I guess when you have to explain a new Middle East war for Israel, exploding gas prices, massive debt, your WH filled with Epstein's friends, this seems like a nice relief:

@OldRowSports So true. “Ahhhhh what’s the Stanley Cup I never heard of it and stuff”

“Ahhh I’m a bartender at sports bar and I don’t know how tv remotes work”

@Mynorthwest Sounds like more of that “give to protesters space to destroy” mentality.

Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson on Thursday announced she is putting the expansion of the city’s surveillance camera pilot program on hold. She will allow existing cameras to continue operating. mynorthwest.com/mynorthwest-po…

@JessePeltan Of course…. because there’s no geopolitical risk in Lithium. You EV nutjobs are so content trading one risk for another that you can’t be taken seriously.

Regardless of what happens in Europe and the U.S., the world is moving to EVs. There is nothing that western automakers can do to reverse this trend, and geopolitical risk in oil will only accelerate it. Either get good at EVs, or wither away.

About 10 years ago, it was reported that we were spending “$1 million per mile” to add these bike lanes downtown. It was also reported that they are used by very, very few people. So. instead of learning from a major mistake, it appears liberals have doubled down ONCE AGAIN in a massive financial mistake that literally benefits no one.

A KIRO Newsradio listener reached out to me recently, asking about the new protected bike lanes on Seattle’s Airport Way. mynorthwest.com/chokepoints/ai…

@komonews Just let Nick Shirley do it.

Washington state lawmakers have approved a budget provision directing an independent review of how state agencies prevent fraud, waste, and abuse — a move supporters say will go beyond existing audits. The provision, included in the state’s supplemental budget, instructs the Joint Legislative Audit and Review Committee to examine oversight of grants, loans, and contracts, as well as the roles of the State Auditor’s Office and the Office of Financial Management in preventing “fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement.” The review will also identify gaps and weaknesses and recommend steps to improve oversight of public funds.
