In any other reality, the US president nonchalantly inviting an enemy state to destroy multiple major US cities would be worldwide news. Not because of the imminent danger, but because of the serious sign that he was psychologically unstable and mentally unfit to serve. #r4today

Oh, fuck off Axios and Herb Scribner. We all heard him say “Let them take out Los Angeles, let them take out San Diego. It’s a small price to pay”. How dare you sane wash this treason and pretend he “didn’t mean that”. And you wonder why people believe the media is 100% complicit in protecting him?

You do not hate these people enough. But it's worth underscoring that this media environment is *the* epistemic challenge for every liberal or leftist dream that is trying to greenshoot its way through the dead concrete of our times.

A day later, what I’m thinking about is how the people in the audience actually cheered after the crazy man suggested Iran taking out LA or San Diego. WTAF?

Nothing to see here...just the President of the United States inviting the country he illegally declared war on to "take out" 2 major American cities. If that's not treason, what is? 🤬 Law enforcement won't hold him accountable, but we WILL! The beginning of the end is on November 3rd. #VOTE-BLUE 🌊

Wanna know what fetal personhood is? It's giving fertilized eggs, embryos, and fetuses a constitutional right to life which competes with the pregnant person's. Then a medical decision can become a fight between two “people,” w/ the state acting as referee. Guess who loses? (The pregnant person.)

More than 500 U.S. citizens have been detained by ICE, according to ProPublica. 70% of ICE detainees have no criminal conviction. Trump’s promise to go after the “worst of the worst” was always a lie. It was always a pretext to terrorize Black and brown communities. Remember this.

This is the essence of Collins. She must not be challenged. Ever. I saw it firsthand. Also extremely thin-skinned And I'm sure she finds it galling that Troy Jackson from the Allagash has the audacity to challenge her, the Republican senator who is part of Aroostook's landed gentry

Troy Jackson: Eight years ago today, Maine women begged Susan Collins not to confirm Brett Kavanaugh. She did it anyway. He helped overturn Roe v. Wade. And today, she says she has no regrets. Would you trust her to pick the next Supreme Court justice?

As a longtime Chicago journalist I want to say that if you fail to put Hastert's serial CHILD SEX ABUSE in the headlines about his death, you are doing it wrong. So far, this is the only headline I've seen that has been crystal clear about what the Illinois pol did to kids. Credit @reuters.com.

Spot the difference
Side-by-side comparison of three social media posts announcing the death of former Republican House Speaker Dennis Hastert at age 84. On the left, Fox News posts, “BREAKING: Dennis Hastert, longest-serving Republican House speaker, dead at 84,” above a photo of Hastert raising his hand at a microphone. In the center, CBS News posts, “Former Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert, who represented Illinois for two decades in Congress and was later jailed for violating banking laws, has died,” above a photo of Hastert walking through the U.S. Capitol. On the right, MeidasTouch posts, “Dennis Hastert, the longest-serving Republican Speaker in history, has died at 84. Hastert admitted in federal court to sexually abusing boys he coached as a high school wrestling coach. A federal judge called him a ‘serial child molester.’ He was a registered sex offender.” The MeidasTouch post includes an image of Hastert speaking from the House floor with a C-SPAN chyron identifying him as Speaker of the House.

Certainly was a coincidence that the only moment Hamas tried to enter Israel en masse, the Iron dome & all the peerless Israeli security in place failed. Then took IDF many hrs to coordinate it's defense & reach affected settlements (traversing a country about the size of New Jersey). How odd.
