The Strait of Hormuz was open before Trump launched his war against Iran. Celebrating its reopening as an "achievement" of Trump diplomacy is illogical. Please stop accepting this White House framing.

It is absolutely fucking astounding to me that not one of these asshole nominees trump throws in there has the balls to state that donald trump lost the election in 2020. It's insane that these idiots are actually frightened of the biggest coward the world has ever seen.

JUST IN: Trump is scrambling to stop the BBC from digging into the finances of his business empire after a judge ordered him to hand over records in his $10B defamation lawsuit against the network.

Fetterman says America has a responsibility to Israel because Israel has "progressive values"

The complete delusion is even worse than we thought. fetterman actually thinks he would win a primary if it were held today. My three year old granddaughter can read a room better than this clueless asshole. Wow.

BLITZER: If a Democratic Senate primary were held in Pennsylvania today, do you believe you would win? FETTERMAN: ... Like, today? BLITZER: Yeah FETTERMAN: Uh. Yeah.

Fetterman comes out of the closet

He ain’t wrong

Teump backed a primary candidate who just raked in fewer votes than the guy who dropped out. 🥴😆🤣😆🤣😆🤣😆

5/ Watch for a two part play. First, they lift Mike Rogers up as the reasonable choice. Second, they work to convince Haley Stevens voters that El-Sayed is too risky to back, hoping those Democrats stay home in November instead of showing up. Division is the strategy.

THIS is how it's done! Thank you!

A gracious concession: “I want to congratulate Abdul El-Sayed on winning the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate. He is a doctor, a community health official, a Rhodes Scholar, and a dedicated Michigander. I am proud to offer my support as he takes on Mike Rogers in the general election…

The current administration is a fucking criminal enterprise. #FuckTheGOP

First thought: Trump Administration creates loophole allowing DoD to directly sell DoD real estate, then has all other departments sell their real estate to the DoD so it can then sell all the other property without oversight. Loopholes always widen. federalnewsnetwork.com/defense-news...

They'll never get it.

Perspective.

The 'efficient' government just more than tripled their cost on this. I'm sure the owner of the new company is a donor or friend of donald trump.

After 43yrs… Black Owned The Sewing Box gets snubbed. The $400k contract was secretly given to a Virginia company, for $1.69M. Shame. www.military.com/navy-suddenl...

This is pure stock market manipulation - again. It's happening every week like clockwork, and it fucking astounds me that nobody in Congress has said one damn thing about it. Because they're all cashing in as well. Weekend bombing is over, we bought, time to drive the price back up.👍

A senior Gulf official told CNN that there is a 50/50 chance of a provisional deal between the U.S. and Iran by Friday, though key Iranian hardliners have not yet signed off.

Hey, remember when trump utilized our military to illegally invade a sovereign country, without cause, kidnap their leader and disappear his ass, took over the country's oil, and the whole-ass Congress let out a collective "meh"??? I do. It's still happening. No one's doing shit.

I'll be damned, this asshole is even more like trump than I thought...

This is some grade school shit. Unbelievable. Apparently Patton is now only a Brigadier General And MacArthur is just a Lieutenant General - while the fucking coward who never had the balls to get near a uniform is a full General.🙄 His brain is complete shit at this point.

All that’s left for Max Miller at this point is to publish a book called, ‘If I Did It.’

The ONLY thing this means is that republicans have enough votes to confirm him even if she votes no. Then she can feign 'concern' and 'take a stand', which means absolutely nothing. She's done this for YEARS.

The average national price for a gallon of conventional whole milk in the United States is $4.32. Eggs are ~$2.00/dozen. These people are fucking insane and so out of touch it's almost impressive...

Tom Emmer on Republicans trailing Dems by 8 points in the generic ballot: "Right now there are great things happening in our economy. Nobody wants to talk about 78 cent eggs, nobody wants to talk about milk that's under $2. No no. They want to focus on gas prices."

RFKJr claims Lyme disease was created by scientists,which is the closest he’s come to admitting that science exists. Meanwhile, Ötzi the Iceman, who died more than 5.3K years ago, had Lyme disease. Apparently prehistoric humans are part of the conspiracy. Get me off this timeline

On what planet did anyone think John Fucking Cornyn and Tom Fucking Tillis were going to stop corrupt, Christofascist Todd Blanche from becoming AG? So tired of people who keep going to the movie expecting the ending to change because media outlets pretend there’s conflict. They’re all bad actors.
