If any other country did this, Netanyahu would be the first to decry it as a war crime and antisemitic.

Before it was destroyed in an Israeli air strike on April 7, Tehran’s Rafi-Nia synagogue was emblematic of one of the Middle East's largest Jewish communities outside of Israel. According to one worsh...

Why even bother to make Blanche lie in a memo?
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterdayCornyn: "As to the idea it could be revived in the future, I think it's highly unlikely that could happen without the cooperation of the DOJ. And I think Mr Blanche gave us the assurances that it was dead and would not be revived and in this case we have no alternative but to take his word" 🙃
These are the questions people ask in their daily lives: How am I going to pay for healthcare? Should I buy gas or groceries? What happened to half the nurses in my parent's resthome? Why did my electricity bill double? What happened to Colbert?
@NewsJennifer (Jennifer Schulze)@newsjennifer.bsky.social · yesterdayAre you kidding me with this? THESE are the pressing questions of the day right now for the lead anchor at CBS NEWS? Covid & Joe Biden are his top 2 before anything Trump? Come the f*ck on. variety.com/2026/tv/news...
If the $1.8 billion slush fund is dead why is Trump still appealing the motion dismissing the suit as filed for an improper purpose?
If you thought Darline Graham Nordone was going to be more moderate than her brother, you were wrong. "... This is where I differ from my brother — getting rid of the filibuster to get [the SAVE Act] done, because eventually the Democrats are going to get rid of it anyway"

@hcrichardson.bsky.social said it best. He's coo coo for Cocoa Puffs.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2d agoTrump's new daily talking point is "grass is like humans -- it has a life"
If you were wondering what the technical legal term for what is happening with the $1.8 billion slush fund the term is "bullshit."
Chris Geidner@chrisgeidner.bsky.social · 3d agoThis is bullshit, and if Cornyn and Tillis say this is enough, their earlier claimed concerns were also bullshit.
This is quite possibly the weirdest endorsement argument ever.
Elizabeth Warren@elizabeth-warren.bsky.social · 3d agoTaylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding at Madison Square Garden? $30 million. The amount special interests have spent against @abdulelsayed.bsky.social in the Michigan Senate race? $60 MILLION. Twice as much to try and buy one Senate seat. It’s the many vs. the money. Vote for Abdul.

Hasan Piker isn't a democrat. He isn't remotely the face of the democratic party. He is an opportunistic twitcher who makes stuff up for attention. People need to stop suggesting he could be the face of the party. Carville is being an idiot, which is his brand.
Donie O’Sullivan@donie.bsky.social · 3d ago"I am not going to be in the same party with Hasan Piker ... if he becomes a force in the Democratic Party, I am out of here," James Carville says on Fox this morning. Reminder: The Left Insurgency airs tonight on CNN at 8p ET.
The problem with your wife cheating on you with a Brazilian jiu-jitsu teacher is you can't beat him up. #anndroid
I think a lot of the success of the more progressive non-politician candidates is a direct result of Chuck Schumer's decision to capitulate to the March 20205 continuing resolution.
Bernie Moreno finally speaks out about his psychotic son-in-law. Still not as harsh as his words for Dr. Fauci, but something.
I haven't read Dr. Anthony Fauci's diary. I am waiting for the movie.
John Kennedy really nails Trump here.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3d agoSen. John Kennedy on Trump's blatant reflecting pool lies: "The president says it was caused by vandals. I don't know if he really believes that or it's part of his political messaging or he's just thinking out loud ... he grows anxious when he has an unexpressed thought."
The primary downside of being a vampire is that you potentially have exes for hundreds of years.
Holy shit. Dana Bash shamed RFJK into telling people to vaccinate their children for measles. Sometimes the legacy media wins one.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3d agoBASH: I want you to use your bully pulpit to tells parents who have not vaccinated their kids that they should vaccine their kids for measles. Will you do that? Look into the camera RFK Jr: I'll say it right now. Parents should get their children vaccinated for measles.
Perfect example of how society is breaking down.
Kevin Gannon (now a Moo Deng fan account)@thetattooedprof.bsky.social · 5d agoOne day several years ago, I got an anonymous handwritten, threatening letter delivered to my campus mailbox, and then someone (the same person? someone else?) DM'd me on twitter from a burner account, with a photo of my driveway with my car parked in it. This is real and it's dangerous
RFKJ said a lot of batshit things and lies. But I think this is the important one. He is not prepares for a pandemic. His plan for a pandemic is to attack the press.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3d agoBASH: How do you prepare for next pandemic? RFK Jr: We did almost everything wrong B: But what about now? K: We need to protect our rights B: ? K: During covid we dismantled our rights B: But I'm asking what *to* do K: You were part of the problem B: You want to sit here and attack me?
On July 27, David Hearn's lawyers moved to have the US Attorney's office provide grand jury minutes. Pirro's response was to drop the charges four days later. That timeline is what matters, not Trump's deranged posts about it. The press is avoiding the obvious nexus to improper grand jury conduct.
