Sarah Matthews reacts to Stephen Miller calling Democrats “evil,” “sinister,” “wicked,” and “morally indefensible.” Sounds like projection.

US intelligence says Iran is producing ballistic missiles again. An AI video forwarded by Natalie Harp shows Iran surrendering to a sword-wielding, eagle-riding Donald Trump. For busy presidents of the United States, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Whether it’s universities trying to hire more women and Black people or Kash Patel trying to hire more people who have engaged in bestiality, both sides have taken controversial approaches to increasing diversity.

PabloReports: Donald Trump has said we are in a golden age. AOC: A golden age of what? Of what? He’s putting golden toilets all over Washington, D.C.

David Gregory and Chuck Todd were bad, but Welker is worse. A constant stream of negging ("you made this gaffe years ago, do you renounce it now?" or "person X said this about you, what's your response?"). And the lame attempts to goad people into Making Some Big News today. #MTP @meetthepress.com

If you look at the world map, it's not favorable to the US largely bc of wrongheaded decisions by this administration"

You can’t afford groceries or gas or healthcare or childcare or utilities or rent? No worries. I’m sure the president will get right on it after he does the important work of renaming lakes in his pissing match with Canada…

"What did he do to deserve to be murdered, to be left cold, on the ground, dead, my child? What did he do? ... they don't care ... I expect an apology. Why shouldn't we get one?" -- Alex Pretti's mom

"We watched it on TV. And it's like, 'That's our son. That's Alex. And they killed him' ... trying to help someone" -- Alex Pretti's dad
