i think the media needs to internalize something that is glaringly obvious but also weird and disorienting in a way the media is completely unequipped to handle: trump is not trying to be popular anymore. he is not doing politics anymore. he does not care. he just wants to rule until the music stops

The cheapest way to deliver healthcare is to provide universal healthcare. This has been demonstrated nearly infinite times; Roger Marshall just isn’t smart. The US spends more on healthcare than any other country in the entire world BECAUSE of privatization (and we have the worst health outcomes!)
Roger Marshall: "We want patients to become consumers again. We want patients to see what the actual prices are. We believe that if we would add the price tags to this bill, that it would save the country a trillion dollars a year."

Remember when Trump said that his tariffs might mean fewer toys for American kids? Or when he freaked out after Amazon said they might show the added costs from his tariffs on their site?

Yesterday, I reminded his top trade official of how these tariffs are a Trump Tax on everything we buy.

Billionaires swore they’d flee NYC if Zohran Mamdani won. Instead? Luxury home contracts jumped 25%, inventory fell 16%, and even the Republican wealth managers whining on TV admit they’re never leaving the city that makes them rich.

FIFA: We need a new peace prize statue to give to Trump.

Artist: how about zombified hands clawing their way out of the grave, grasping at the Earth as if to drag the whole world down into hell?
Person who actually deserves a trophy is the artist who made the FIFA peace prize trophy look like everyone in the entire world holding their head in their hands out of secondhand embarrassment

I honestly don’t know what’s more concerning. That the president of the United States keeps falling asleep in public or that everyone around him is too scared to wake him up.

House member @shrithanedar.bsky.social is introducing articles of impeachment that include murder and conspiracy to commit murder against Hegseth.

We all need to lean hard into getting it to the floor. We shouldn’t have to, but Jeffries is useless.
Yeah, a House member needs to send up that impeachment flag. This is illegal, immoral, dangerous behavior — that is also likely unconstitutional as well.

(1/2) This court is a problem that won't go away. They'll block everything the next Dem president does.

Got to start talking about "court reform" now. "Republicans in robes", "corruption". Not "packing" or "expanding".

Start framing the discussion now.

Pete Hegseth says he’s going to court-martial me for saying the same exact thing he said 9 years ago. What changed for Pete? Well to start, he spends all day thinking about how he can suck up to Trump. When Trump says jump, he says how high.

Whether the order went through him or originated with him, it was clearly illegal and he should be held accountable either way, along with Hegseth.

The first strike was also murder. You can’t just up and kill civilians on the high seas and then claim you were at war with them.
Reporter: If there were a second strike that killed wounded people, would that be legal?

Trump: I don’t know that happened and Pete said he did not even know what people were talking about. I wouldn’t have wanted a second strike. The first strike was very lethal. It was fine.

I know who's *not* going to jail for war crimes. This guy!

They fired him on Aug 22nd.

Boat strikes started September 1st.

I wonder why they fired him? And fired all the Judge Advocates General?
Admiral Milton Sands III is a highly decorated Navy SEAL and was commander of the Naval Special Warfare Command. Basically, he was the final boss of the Navy SEALS.

He just got fired.

Listen to the respect and humility with which he and his soldiers talk about African and European military allies.

Senator Kelly is correct.

Plus a Public Service Announcement:

KEY section of Department of Defense's Law of War Manual is 18.3.2.1.

The VERY rule on the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders gives as its paradigmatic example of what is "clearly illegal:
"orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."
