AMY SISKIND: "Now Iran is saying they won’t negotiate until Trump leaves office. I don’t understand what went wrong, we sent two of our most mediocre real estate developers to negotiate after having such a well thought out plan of attack six months ago."
This is whole story is horrifying, and as a journalist covering ICE flights, I was struck by this sentence: “We were shipped to Texas overnight from Los Angeles in horrible conditions that I won’t elaborate on in this letter.”

Here’s a NYT image of the President of the United States fleeing Turkey *inside an airport catering cart* as he leaves members of his own staff and the entire White House traveling press pool to die in a warned-of Iranian military attack over Turkey Impeach this m*therfucker now
Coach Walz would have made a great VP. 🛋️ Boi Jance is nothing but a little makeup wearing 💩.
. I'm dumb and I have a question: Why is every show on television talking about Democratic Socialists and never Republican Fascism? .
Given what a conspicuous flop the previous Amazon documentary about boring Melania was, Amazon is now screaming from the rooftops, "This makes no business sense--other than as a bribe to reduce regulations of our horrible workplace conditions!" (And there is no part of Melania we haven't ALL seen.)
This would be a massive demand on resignation in every democratic country in the world. American media is a disgrace!
Dear corporate media: instead of parsing the language of one of the DSA’s platform issues about the two-tiered system of justice in an effort to divide the opposition, how about discussing the fascism on the other side?
The naked corruption is astonishing and the Republican majorities in the House and Senate refuse to conduct any oversight or hearings.
No platforming lies No platforming conspiracy theories No sanewashing No cliche questions No Beltway navel-gazing We can cover the news, without all the crap.
Providing school children with free meals is better than posting The Ten Commandments and then ignoring their hunger.
McGowan: The president's personal defense attorney should not be the attorney general. The man who ignored the Epstein victims and then moved Ghislaine Maxwell from a maximum security prison to where she is now, should not be the attorney general. I think Cassidy is a spineless coward.
Former J6 federal prosecutors are begging senators -- mostly GOPers, but a handful of Dems are in there, too -- to stop confirming election deniers to lifetime federal courts seats. “Please stop poisoning our courts." www.huffpost.com/entry/live-u...

#Dodgers have lost 8 out of 12 games since bowing down to our dictator. At the White House. Remember?
www.samsung-news.com/articles/32K... Everyone and their brothers and sisters know it to be true. And this is another reason we cannot trust our own government to follow thru with anything. Just like investigating Epstien.
Dozens of gas-burning power plants are being built across the country, solely to power data centers. These plants could emit as much planet-warming pollution as half of all passenger vehicles in the entire country in a single YEAR. We need a data center moratorium — now.
The fact that the Democratic senators are agreeing to a continuing resolution until Dec 11th with NO compromises for them is absolute political malpractice and head scratching. Why not even try to ban like…. The arch? Anything!
Your little oopsie "mistakes" had me worrying for a year of my life about my partner going to jail for up to a decade based on lies likely fed to you by the top of the federal government. Show everyone what you're covering up in these emails and texts. There's a reason you don't want them released.

Stolen valor from Mr. Bone Spurs. An insult to every man and woman who has worn the uniform.
You could have voted no on Blanche. Idiot.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last wk.Cornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
Booker: "Ghislaine Maxwell is sitting in the lowest possible confinement after giving no information that helped us get one more investigation started and has been silent, and the man responsible for that we're about to make the attorney general of the US ... this is farcical."
Call me crazy, but if a Democratic president had 350 accounts closed by their bank for money laundering it’d be more than a blip in the media
Whitehouse: "Today I think is a sad and embarrassing day for this committee as it looks like on a party-line vote we are going to advance out of this committee probably the most discreditable person ever to seek the office of attorney general. Let's start with the Epstein files ... "
This is pretty straightforward, and it's weird to me that people are against it.
