Maybe someone in the cabinet has a plan for Iran, but i’d guess the only plans Agent Orange has are 1. distract from Epstein files; 2. try to use being at war to quash protest and voting; 3. feel powerful by blowing stuff and people up; & 4. use up weapons so his arms manufacturer donors can profit.

Regardless of one’s feeling about it, such a public response to a political leader is news, and deliberately failing to mention it is self-censorship. It’s like if reporters agreed not to report on the man who threw a shoe at George Bush. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

@chrislhayes.bsky.social Chance that Agent Orange deliberately did the horrendously racist video to distract from the Epstein files? He’d rather have people yelling at him about the racism instead of the sex crimes?

@nancyerikasmith.bsky.social Thank you for your appearance on The Beat on MS-Now. Hardly anyone brings up all that context and history, and it’s the most relevant to the perversion of the justice department into the criminal president’s personal law agency and his support of all other rapists.

I wanna say “trump and noem and miller and all those ice criminals better hope they never need care from a nurse for the rest of their miserable lives” (and hint, every last one of us will need a nurse’s care at some point). But nurses are better than i am and wouldn’t deny care to anyone in need.

Accusing @klobuchar.senate.gov and @governorwalz.mn.gov of “inciting insurrection” is like saying someone trying to help a woman escape a domestic abuser is inciting insurrection. Humans aren’t the property of trump and miller. Civil rights aren’t effing insurrection.

Yep. This angle shows that what Bovino said — and what Trump, Miller, and DHS wrote —are lies. They’ve again murdered someone trying to help neighbors, and are again slandering that person. Not to cover anything up, but to project their power and impunity. To suppress dissent, and to set an example.

Some perspective: The S&P opened down -1.3% on Trump's Greenland saber-rattling. That's $750 billion of wealth destroyed -- roughly equal to estimates of the value of Greenland. And so ~in dollar terms~ his shenanigans have already cost the US one Greenland, and we've got nothing to show for it.

Donald Trump’s immigration enforcement is making Americans LESS safe. He is taking resources away from projects focused on real national security and public safety threats, and instead diverting them to inflicting violence and pain on our communities.

Her vehicle's right front panel cleared the ICE agent who didn't open fire until after he was at the side of her vehicle. He used deadly force on a fleeing individual, which is against DHS policy. This is murder. He needs to be arrested.
