Massie: Previous presidents told us to go to war over WMDs that did not exist. Now it's the same playbook. Except we're told that drugs are the WMDs. If it were about drugs, we'd bomb Mexico or China or Colombia. This is about oil and regime change.

Men are just naturally violent and uncivilized, it appears. I wonder how much is organic and how much is just grand old macho tradition. Whatever the case, it looks like women deserve a bigger say.
WHY CAN WE NOT ELECT A WOMAN PRESIDENT. The rest of the world has. OLD WHITE GUYS HAVE FUCKED UP AMERICA ALREADY.

How is it that republicans, and trump in particular, retain a microgram of respect or credibility from the public in view of a shameful record like this? I suppose their response to this will be that their brilliant plan will be out in just a couple of weeks.

Republicans are slime. One would not exaggerate much by saying they are the root of all evil in America.
Moskowitz: Speaker Johnson seems to have memory problems: I haven’t seen that. I haven’t heard about it. You’re telling me this for the first time.
He just can’t get away from trying to defend the president without making it look like he has absolutely no idea what’s going on at any point in time…

Pathetic asshole. No wonder the trumpies love him.
Orban is pleading publicly with his boss Putin not to punish him in a letter he wrote after the EU overrode his veto on frozen Russian assets.
He also said Hungary's "loyal cooperation" with the EU on sanctions was over.
Is he suggesting he was loyally cooperating before?🤔

The Israeli government's behavior isn't OK for anybody, whether Jewish or not, and whether they've ever been attacked themselves or not. It's just absolutely not OK, conditional on nothing.
This is revolting, racist nonsense and it’s being mainlined everywhere right now. No criticism of Israel is allowed, ever. They can starve as many babies to death as they like, they can mass murder hundreds of thousands and it's fine because they're Jewish.

As Europe is preparing for conflict with Russia, Pete retreats. Republicans sold America’s integrity and values for Russian blood money. If only more Americans traveled abroad instead of burying their heads in Fox News they’d realize how tragic this is.

I wonder where his Mar-a-Lago bunker will be. Under the sea? With a secret sub base? With a staff of teenyboppers? Built by russia? Well, why not? Don't be so negative.
MeidasTouch host Ben Meiselas reports on the shocking admission by Donald Trump’s DOJ in a court case where the DOJ admits to a secret project underneath the ballroom which they claim is needed to protect Donald Trump’s life for “national security purposes.”

I think it's a mixed bag, but there is certainly a lot we need to answer for, especially now.
I’ve personally labeled The United States of America a rogue and terrorist nation and must be held accountable and liable for more then 275+ years of crimes against humanity.
Times this by 8 billion people and we might be able to get something done.

Gaza’s Government Media Office reports Israel has broken terms of the U.S.-brokered ceasefire at least 738 times since it took effect on October 10, killing at least 386 Palestinians, while severely restricting shipments of food, shelter, medicine, fuel and other basic goods into Gaza.
