This week Rebecca Cooke hosted a roundtable with farmers in Vernon County at the Zzip Stop gas station in Westby to talk about high diesel prices' impact on their farms. Trump and Derrick Van Orden are sending billions to a war in Iran instead of putting our rural communities first. #WI03 1/2

🚨NEW by me: New ICE facility for unaccompanied migrant kids is about to open in Louisiana. While ICE is sanitizing optics, calling it the "Alexandria Family Staging Center," lawmakers and child advocates are raising the roof warning of child trafficking risks. www.thequeenzone.com/new-ice-faci...

Jen Psaki shares highlights from a new interview Donald Trump gave to Time magazine that shows someone woefully out of touch, misguided on the facts, and tone deaf about his political situation.

President Trump has expressed sympathy for seven men ("men" used loosely) convicted of gang rape, yet your Republican state leaders remain completely silent. Vote them out in record numbers! It's time to fumigate.

Katie Phang: "Get the fuck out of here. Are you kidding me? You think it's a good use of taxpayers time and money to be able to do illegal redactions and withholds that are now forcing me to have to go and sue? Are you joking? But this is how Todd Blanche thinks."

Just over the last few months: - DOJ begins review of whether Nixon was a victim - WH pardon attorney says Watergate was a CIA “hoax” - WH chief of protocol says Nixon was the “target of a Deep State hoax” - Vance celebrates Nixon “renaissance,” dismisses Watergate www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

“What a crock of sh*t!” Katie Phang torches Todd Blanche after he declares, “There’s not a prosecutor in this country that should ever, ever violate a court order,” pointing to the Trump DOJ’s documented noncompliance with court orders in her OWN Epstein files lawsuit.

It's a good day to google "Foxconn," "Wisconsin," "Trump," "2018," "13,000 jobs" and "didn't happen, didn't even come close"

Back in my whipper-snapper days there was a trick we'd pull if one of your friends fell asleep watching movies or whatever. Put their hand in a bowl of warm water and they'd pee themselves. - Course he probably wouldn't notice or he already had. - A really small bowl will do here. Tiny even.

The will to use any of those mechanisms? Does not exist in the GOP Congress.

conifergirl.bsky.social@conifergirl.bsky.social · 7d ago

What’s it going to take to stop this? At this point, the answer appears to be painfully simple: a literal act of Congress. The mechanisms exist. Impeachment exists. The Twenty-Fifth Amendment exists. Congressional oversight exists.

Yeah, because no one gets hurt when you carpet bomb their town into rubble.

Mad deranged fucker

Last month-after reports that there were significantly deteriorating conditions aboard the USS Lincoln-which Hegseth greatly downplayed Because of an extremely long deployment-which Trump asserted hadn’t lasted “nearly long enough” We were told a sailor attempted suicide Now it’s EIGHT SAILORS?!?

Farmers who were promised “America First” policies say that $6 diesel — an all-time high — is “eating everyone’s bottom line” as Trump’s ongoing war with Iran stretches toward peak harvest season.

You should post the clip where Snyder says "The truth of the matter is that we could be winning the war in Ukraine if Trump weren't supporting Russia so much, if he weren't propping up the gas prices, the world oil prices by staying in Iran." Who benefits from high gas prices? Russian oil exports.

Trump's speech at the United Nations was filled with "the kind of lies, contradictions, and unverifiable nonsense" that won't stand up to scrutiny, which is one reason why he is trying to ban the press from the White House.
