Retired Marine and unabashed liberal. True national security depends on education, health care, jobs, civil rights, income equality and a clean environment.
I’ve been thinking a lot about the extraordinary outbursts of the President of the United States against female journalists... well, actually against journalists in general and journalism. But it feels like he saves his most childlike behavior and irrational language for female reporters, calling them all kinds of names that kids in kindergarten are given times out for. It’s stunning to me to witness such behavior from any leader, any CEO, any person of influence or importance. I’ve never witnessed someone like this raging, this weekend with @meetthepress host @kwelkernbc, just last week in the Oval Office with @cnn’s @kaitlancollins, calling women stupid or piggy, telling them to “smile”, calling them darling, demeaning their credibility. Every good man should denounce this behavior. Every person should be able to stand up for their colleagues and say “No more.”
Imagine this man screaming like this at your daughter, your wife, your sister, your mother... would you stand for it? No, you wouldn’t! And neither should any of us. It’s unacceptable and undignified. Period. End of story.
BELIEVE WHAT YOU HEAR WHEN ITS RECORDED BY A HIDDEN MICROPHONE
It doesn't appear that Mike Johnson knew he was being recorded today when he admitted that if they hold on to power, Republicans will cut Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security next year.

The Somali referee Omar Abdulkadir Artan, selected by @FIFAWorldCup and distinguished by CAF as the best African referee of 2025, was rejected upon arriving in the United States at Miami airport and deported back to Istanbul.
This World Cup is the worst.
Une grande victoire pour les Albanais !
Le gouvernement albanais annonce l'arrêt des travaux du projet de Kushner et Ivanka et la suspension du projet.
Les foules refusent de rentrer chez elles tant que le projet n'est pas annulé intégralement.
Acting AG Todd Blanche—formerly Donald Trump's personal lawyer—signed an order blocking the IRS from investigating the President, his family, and his businesses.
This may be valued at over $100 million.
I have a bill to stop this corruption.
Dear @SecRollins: You lie. The average life cycle of a Screwworm ranges from 14 to 54 days depending on temperature and humidity.
The trump Administration has been in office over 500 days.
If you can’t accept responsibility, or even apologize for messing up, you need to resign.
JUST IN: Reporter Catherine Herridge testifies that CBS News locked her out of the building and seized all her files, says she was working with sources to "expose government corruption."
Nothing at all going on here, folks.
"CBS News’ decision to seize my reporting records crossed a red line that I believe should never be crossed by any media organization."
"Multiple sources said they were concerned that by working with me to expose government corruption and misconduct they would be identified and exposed."
"CBS News locked me out of the building and seized hundreds of pages of my reporting files, including confidential source information."
FOLLOW ME, THE NEXT DROP WILL BE SHOCKING.
I just heard the @BBC radio say that the Israeli army was attacking Hezbollah targets yesterday & they also platformed someone bloviating about how Iran is ‘occupying’ Lebanon.
As a frontline journalist on the ground for the last 18 months, I would like to reiterate that I have not see any Iranian occupation bases in Lebanon. I have not seen any children killed here by Iranian bombs. I haven’t seen the IRGC massacring entire families on a daily basis. The IRGC has not shot at me or killed dozens of my colleagues in targeted attacks. Iran has not been systematically murdering healthcare workers (over 130) in Lebanon.
Israel has violently invaded and occupied Lebanon. The flag flying over the base in Al Khiam is an Israeli flag, not an Iranian flag. (Photo below)
The Lebanese Ministry of Health yesterday reported that 3,613 civilians have been killed and 11,072 have been wounded in Israeli attacks since March 2nd.
Scott Pelley told the NYT that Bari Weiss attempted to change a segment about the murder of Renee Good. He says Weiss demanded that Good come across as more violent and to describe her as driving toward the officer who shot her.
Who is never going to watch CBS News again!
Trump walking out on Kristen Welker today reminded me of his 60 Minutes interview with Lesley Stahl in 2020. Different interviewer, same result: when he can’t control the narrative, he walks out like the petulant man-child he is. Fucking snowflake.
"What's happening in Gaza is a Holocaust and what's being designed by the Israeli government is the final solution to the Palestinian problem. As a Holocaust survivor my reaction is not in my name."

Ranchers, the GOP let this happen. They voted to let DOGE and Trump eradicate funding for screwworm monitoring programs. Now, screwworm is here and cases are rising by the day.
A pro-Palestine woman arrested in London:
“I am being arrested for holding a cardboard sign whereas our government feels the need to sell weapons and use our air bases to commit genocide in Palestine.”

Since Trump is unable to bring a receipt of Democrats rigging elections, here's one of Arizona Republicans caught in the act of trying to rig the 2020 election, by signing fake elector forms for Trump.
It would be a shame to keep sharing this and other receipts...

I will not be distracted.
Trump’s name is all over a Pedophile File.
This is a huge story.
His name appears third to Epstein and Ghislaine.
He was more than just a pedo customer. He was a part of the enterprise.
Children as young as 9 were abused and Blanche will do absolutely anything to not reveal the abusers. #DemsUnited
