The Dread Pirate Trump (also known as the Sleepy Swashbuckler, Commodore Comatose and the Bleary Buccaneer) is disgracing the US Navy and this country. The Trump Corollary to the Monroe Doctrine is apparently that we are now the meddling rogue colonialist power that Monroe feared.

Love the whistles, jeers and horns honking in the background. There should be a similar crowd surrounding every ICE/CBP action.
Tense afternoon in Kenner, outside of New Orleans, as protesters followed Greg Bovino and Border Patrol around a neighborhood around 3pm today.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.

This is the head of United States Special Operations Command, which oversees the military’s special operations in more than 80 countries. He thought the command to “kill everyone” was a normal and legal one. So killed everyone. #hegseth #killeveryone #warcrime

Hegseth is very transparently blaming a Navy admiral for his own decision. Let this be a lesson for every other military officer: The Trump administration will issue unlawful orders, then blame you for following them.

What about the kids actually dying of whooping cough and pertussis due to lack of vaccines
Vinay Prasad of the FDA claims that he has proof that 10 children died from COVID19 vaccines, so the FDA will now target flu shots, look at whether people should receive multiple vaccines at the same time, and make the vaccine approval process significantly more difficult.

I don’t understand why Dems have to choose? “Trump is a corrupt billionaire pedo whose self-serving policies have made your life more expensive” is not that hard of a message imo
The usual suspects are telling Dems that Epstein won’t win elections, get back to “affordability” and I think my head might explode. www.offmessage.net/p/force-a-re...

It divides Republicans much more than "affordability" or any other economic issue.

Trump is appealing the judicial order to pay full SNAP benefits by tomorrow.
He’s spending tax payer dollars going back to court to try and avoid giving folks money they are legally owed.
He’s starving 42 million people because to him they are leverage.
It’s enraging.

Not a word from the ADL’s Jonathan Greenblatt on Tucker hosting Fuentes. Amazing.
I just checked his Twitter feed and plenty on Mamdani and even Norway (!) but not a word about a top conservative podcaster hosting an infamous Holocaust denier.
Greenblatt is beyond parody at this point.

We can urge folks to donate to food banks.
