Mike Johnson over B-roll of Trump: "It's not unlawful for crazy people to run for office. That's happened throughout the history of our country. Never at this level, and never the number of people who are so determined to rip the Constitution in half."

If you did a movie 10 years ago about people who had a long ago shoplifting charge ago being chased by robot dogs and masked goons with shock gloves it would have seemed a bit heavy handed on the dystopia front. And the hero would have definitely been the person who takes down that oppression.

They know they did it and they are responsible. Which is why they will continue to stonewall this. Good for the reporter to keep asking about it and not let this go, because they are counting on people just moving on.

Yesterday a few folks pointed out that Trump has changed major details about his reflecting pool project since he announced it in late April. I've created a video with graphics that point out how much he's lied about it. This includes edits of longer rambling statements.

Iranian American historian Ervand Abrahamian says Trump's repudiation of the Iran nuclear deal irrevocably damaged Iran-U.S. relations. "The best [Trump] can get is going back to that. Demands that Iran should have no nuclear enrichment are a non-starter."

You all have that “friend”. The one you don’t trust. The one who covets your stuff and is always asking to borrow money. The one constantly pulling you into their toxic drama and getting you in trouble. The one you should have walked away from years ago, but you feel bad coz they’d be all alone.

Just wanted to remind folks, especially the GOP and the FDD, that Barack Obama’s 2015 nuclear deal didn’t give Iran control of the Strait of Hormuz or allow it to keep 60% enriched uranium. It sent $1.7 billion to Iran versus the tens of billions Iran will now make from tolls. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Morally, legally, economically the war on Iran is disastrous and the disaster goes on for years no matter what happens now. But what cannot be overstated is that in pure national security terms it is also an unmitigated catastrophe.

The terrorists that attacked Iran have just bombed one of the most elite scientific institutions in the Middle East, Iran’s Sharif University of Technology in the heart of Tehran. Not a military target, they are repeatedly going after schools and medical facilities just like in Palestine.

President Donald Trump is once again threatening to bomb Iranian power plants and other civilian infrastructure if Iran doesn't reopen the Strait of Hormuz. The U.S. president's threats, which would constitute war crimes if carried out, came in a profanity-laced Truth Social post on Easter Sunday.
