So a mediocre college swimmer turned far right shit poster is suddenly knowledgeable on international conflict and a reasonable spokesperson on complicated foreign affairs?

Obviously not, as she entirely misunderstands the situation completely. Or she lying. Either way, stupid is as stupid posts.

Heads-up. Share this everywhere. ICE has created a fake "Stop Ice" app. They're trying to ensnare people to enter their information, so they can go after them.
Do NOT use stopice./org.

Per CDC source: At internal leadership meeting this afternoon, it was shared that 1,257 people were RIF'd at CDC. Number may not be final. Apparently, chief of staff was unaware that RIFs were going to occur so not clear who is making decisions. (Short 🧵)

The Trump-headlined celebration/retroactive justification of genocide happening in Israel today is obscene—and premature. Israel will likely violate Phase 1 of any 20-part plan. As a Trump biographer, I've written a rebuttal to the idea that Trump is anything but one of the most dangerous men alive:

Media and MAGA Calls for Trump to Catch a Nobel Peace Prize Rather Than An ICC War Crimes Indictment Are Obscene

The second-biggest threat to global peace after Putin has earned a cell for war crimes—not a humanitarian award. That his grotesque and scammy appeal for a Nobel Peace Prize is working is terrifying.

Illinois law requires all registered vehicles to display front and back license plates, without exception. But to evade accountability, masked federal immigration agents are driving around in unmarked cars without plates.

Federal immigration officers wear masks, no name tags — now some drive cars without license plates

The Sun-Times has documented four unmarked cars carrying federal officers without required plates, offering another way to shield their identities. Federal officials say they’re meeting regulations.

The complexity of the planning that went into the Trumpist attack on DC in January 2021 goes beyond what most realize. That day was not what many think. It was the first battle in a far-right insurrection that is still ongoing. They are refining their tactics. They intend to end our democracy. Soon.

One look at Steve Witkoff’s portfolio and itinerary makes it clear: a shadow trilateral is forming between Trump, Putin, and the Emir of Qatar.

The goal is to isolate Europe, rehabilitate Putin, and use Qatari wealth to fill Trump’s pockets.

Trump said he deserved a cut for brokering the TikTok deal, and at once there was agreement that his son Baron would have a top executive slot... though he hasn't asked for it, and has no apparent qualifications to hold it. This is how Trump 2.0 works. www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025...

I wrote a book about January 6, 2021.

Want to know when the Trump administration began its systematized lying about antifa and the FBI being behind MAGAs' attack on the Capitol?

January 6, 2021.

Rudy Giuliani had a suite at the Willard Hotel that was the command center for broadcasting that lie.

The joke is on Trump. The ethnic cleansing is simply being moved over to the West Bank.

Check the timestamps. On CNN’s website, the uploaded interview starts at 2:52. On their YouTube page, the upload starts at 2:47. The “plenary authority” comment by Miller was at 2:41, as shown in my side-by-side video post. CNN should be reporting on what Miller said. It’s news!

“Illinois governor says we’re provoking actions that are unlawful,” Miller said on CNN. “If I put federal law enforcement and National Guard into a nice sleepy Southern town, is anyone gonna riot?”
