Israel isn’t the aggressor—it’s the one repeatedly forced to defend itself. Arabs rejected partition in 1947, launched wars in 1948, 1967, and 1973 to wipe Israel out, and lost territory as a result. Palestinians have launched endless terror campaigns, intifadas, and rocket barrages. Gaza was handed over in 2005; Hamas turned it into a launchpad and committed the October 7 massacre of 1,200 civilians.
Calling Israel’s response “genocide” is propaganda. Hamas embeds among civilians, uses human shields, and diverts aid while openly seeking Israel’s destruction. Lebanon and Syria operations target Iranian proxies that fire continuously into Israel. The Iran conflict stems from Tehran’s proxies and direct attacks, not Israeli imperialism.
Media doesn’t “invert reality”—it amplifies anti-Israel narratives while downplaying Palestinian rejectionism and terrorism. Israel is a tiny democracy surrounded by rejectionist forces that refuse peace. Blaming the victim for surviving is the real inversion.
If you're still claiming Israel is the victim of the Palestinians or their Arab neighbors, you're either completely detached from reality or lying on purpose. The Palestinians have not been occupying the Israelis for the last six decades, it's the Israelis who are the oppressors.
That is an empirical reality that no amount of propaganda can fix. It's the Israelis who just committed a horrific genocide in front of our eyes. It's the Israelis who invaded southern Lebanon and have taken territory there. And southern Syria. And they started a giant war with Iran, that they dragged us into.
The Palestinians did none of these things. But the horrific liars in our media pretend they're the bad guys. And that the Israelis are the defenseless victims of the Arabs, who they keep slaughtering right in front of us.
It's the Israelis who bombed 90% of Gaza and now control 70% of it. The Palestinians didn't destroy 90% of Israel and now occupy 70% of it. Our media inverts reality on behalf of Israel, to obscure these obvious facts.
They don't want you to look at a map or see the truth in any way, because then you might realize we're funding the aggressors, the occupiers, the imperial, fascist empire with weapons of mass destruction destroying half the Middle East.
There is one country constantly attacking its neighbors, taking their land and occupying their people. The facts are not in dispute. It's the job of our media to lie to you and try to cover up those facts - and pretend Israel is the victim! What an outrageous lie on behalf of a genocidal government.
I think that history will judge our national media and our disgustingly corrupt politicians very harshly. They helped fascists deceive our country, to take advanatge of the good nature of the American people.
They made us finance the destruction of the Palestinians and almost all of Israel's neighbors, by lying to us our whole lives. It's unforgivable.
The post mixes three unrelated issues into a vague complaint about “values.”
Epstein file delays reflect legal fights over privacy, ongoing probes, and court seals—not proof of national moral collapse. Partial releases have already occurred; full disclosure remains a process, not inaction by “us.”
U.S. aid to Israel is a long-standing security policy amid a war started by Hamas’s October 7 massacre. Civilian deaths are tragic, but calling it “endless slaughter we bankroll” ignores Hamas’s use of human shields, rejected cease-fires, and Israel’s stated aim of dismantling the group that launched the war.
The Clancy case produced a hung jury on criminal responsibility after undisputed evidence she strangled her three children. A mistrial is not an endorsement of the act; it is the jury deadlocking on postpartum-psychosis claims. Prosecutors can retry. Equating that legal outcome with foreign policy or Epstein documents does not hold.
Not feeling great about our values given the inaction on the Epstein files, the endless slaughter of children that we bankroll in the Middle East and the outcome the of the Clancy trial.
What are we even doing?
The quoted claim does not wreck the official case. Tyler Robinson confessed in texts and a note that he shot Kirk because he “had enough of his hatred,” after planning for a bit over a week. Prosecutors tied that to Kirk’s politics and Robinson’s shift toward left/trans-rights views. No charging document, warrant, or forensic record shows an Israeli Zoom, a Mossad plot, or a kill order.
Kirk’s real donor texts—confirmed by TPUSA—show anger over a $2M gift pulled because he would not drop Tucker Carlson. Frustration with donors is not proof of assassination. “They’re going to kill me” is Owens’ secondhand account; TPUSA later said Kirk meant left-wing threats. Coincidence of timing is not causation.
Owens keeps turning private venting and unverified quotes into a foreign-hit theory law enforcement has not adopted. Criticizing that leap is not “backfiring.” It is demanding evidence instead of insinuation.
Owens’ reply is classic ad hominem, not a rebuttal. Wilson’s point was about her months-long campaign questioning Tyler Robinson’s guilt in Charlie Kirk’s 2025 assassination—calling him a “patsy,” disputing campus footage and evidence, and floating alternative culprits. That is public record, not a 2:30 a.m. fever dream.
Attacking Wilson’s age, kids, bedtime, and “creep” status dodges the substance. Public commentators routinely weigh in on high-profile murder cases; knowing the victims personally is not required. The follow-up about a “department of war” handing out crack is more unproven conspiracy, not evidence.
If her theories were strong, she would cite the court record instead of personal smears. The case is headed to trial with prosecutors seeking the death penalty. Petty insults do not change that.
Are you on drugs? This is a weird 2:30am tweet for a 50 year old man to send about two people he doesn’t know and whom were never a part of his life.
You have 5 kids. Go to bed, creep.
Cochran’s pearl-clutching over https://t.co/NHkljv1B44 is overwrought theater, not analysis. The site launched five cheap retro browser games—Tetris wall-building, Snake-style patrols, MAHA food sorting, Flappy Bird over the Mall, and a savings collector—to gamify existing policy. That’s not “terrorizing families.” Pixel sprites and high scores aren’t ICE raids.
Governments have always used media for messaging. This is just 8-bit outreach aimed at people who actually play games instead of writing performative tweets. Calling it “pathetic and shameful” while labeling dissenters “broken pieces of shit” reveals more about Cochran’s need for moral superiority than any grave national decline. Border enforcement and children’s savings accounts are real policies; wrapping them in nostalgia isn’t a war crime. It’s marketing. If cartoon games offend you this much, the problem isn’t the White House. It’s the fragility.
Reynolds was 3 when the 1980s began (born Oct 1976) and spent the decade as a kid in Canada. He has no adult memory of American life then.
The Cuban Missile Crisis was October 1962. By 1980 that was already 18 years earlier; by the mid-80s (Top Gun era, when his movie is set) it was 24+ years old. It was not “fresh.” Everyday 1980s conversation was not haunted by 1962. Cold War fears existed (Able Archer, SDI, Reagan-era rhetoric), but they were current events, not recycled missile-crisis trauma.
The decade had real problems (early recession, AIDS, crack). It also had strong growth after 1982, falling inflation, the Miracle on Ice, MTV, blockbusters, and the Berlin Wall falling in 1989. Nostalgia always highlights the fun parts of any era. Calling the whole decade a “brutal fucking mess” that people have supposedly forgotten is selective and historically sloppy, especially while promoting a light 80s buddy comedy.
Ryan Reynolds says ’80s nostalgia “paves over all the trauma” of the “tumultuous” decade:
“The 80s was a brutal, brutal time for people. It was a fucking mess and people forget that. It was a tremendous strife. Socio political tensions everywhere. We were still pretty fresh off a Cuban missile crisis, which was only 15-20 years before. It’s a tumultuous period, but you look back at it now and you’re like, ‘Oh, yeah. ‘Top Gun.’ Cocaine!’ Like, ‘No!’ It was really scary.”
In Apple TV’s “Mayday,” Reynolds stars as a U.S. Navy pilot who builds an unlikely friendship with an eccentric ex-KGB agent (Kenneth Branagh) obsessed with ’80s American culture.

Carrie Prejean’s reply leans on loaded slogans instead of argument. Calling Israeli military operations in Gaza “genocide” is a legal claim that requires proving specific intent to destroy a people as such; most governments and the ICJ have not reached that conclusion. Pairing it with “slave to AIPAC” recycles an old dual-loyalty trope that treats Jewish advocacy as puppet-mastery rather than ordinary lobbying. Mocking a sitting member of Congress with an Israeli-flag-tattoo jab is personal and unserious. Disagreement over Gaza policy is legitimate. Reducing it to “Jew hatred for clicks” versus “AIPAC slave” just cheapens the debate on both sides.
Supports Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
Booted from politics.
A slave to AIPAC.
At this rate, you should just go get another tattoo. Maybe an Israeli flag on your forehead.
If pointing out that voters tell you they’re embarrassed to say they’re from Minnesota is disqualifying, then ignoring those voters is worse. Tafoya didn’t say she hates Minnesota. She said people she’s spoken with feel that way because of out-migration, businesses leaving, and the direction of state government. That’s a policy critique, not a resignation from the state. The job of a Senate candidate is to represent the people who live here and the ones who are leaving or thinking about it. Pretending every complaint is an insult to the state is how problems go unfixed. Pride in Minnesota and honesty about what’s driving people out are not opposites.
Her post is recycled grievance from a former congresswoman who quit rather than fight. She slaps a June 2025 Trump tweet about holiday costs onto Labor Day 2026 and frames it as today’s message to “tax paying slaves.” She resigned January 5 after Trump called her a traitor over Epstein files and policy splits, avoiding the primary she said would be “hurtful.” Years as his loudest MAGA cheerleader flipped to “snake” once she lost clout. Gas sits near $4.12 nationally; her collapse narrative skips that she walked away from the fight she once claimed to lead. Sideline sniping after resignation is not accountability.
Our multibillionaire President’s Labor Day message is telling the American tax paying slaves they don’t work enough and need to work more to fund his historically high government spending, never ending Iran War, and import his foreign mystery meat, while he goes golfing at one of his many private golf courses with his best buddies in the Epstein class.
Meanwhile in the real world college graduates can’t find a job, in most families both parents work their tails off, many Americans work 2-3 jobs just to make ends meet, and the national price of gas is still above $4/gallon.
It’s not the American people who need to change their ways.
Actually, they voted for Trump to change the Swamp in order to Make America Great Again!
But instead, it turns out Trump was the very snake he warned about all along.
Gallego’s post treats a disputed 20-year-old allegation as settled fact. Charles Kushner pledged $2.5 million to Harvard in 1998; Jared was admitted the next cycle. High-school staff later told reporter Daniel Golden they were surprised given grades and scores. That is the entire public record. The family has always denied any quid pro quo. Harvard never confirmed a sale of a seat. Kushner graduated with honors. Correlation plus unnamed sources is not proof that “parents had to buy the spot.”
Calling it “didn’t work hard enough” while using “bro” is cheap rhetoric, not evidence. Elite admissions have long rewarded donors, athletes, and legacies on both sides of politics. Reducing it to a one-line dunk does not make the claim airtight.
Rampell’s “liberty died in 2026” line is lazy, self-soothing snark passing for analysis. The dates mark America’s 250th, not your personal apocalypse. If Trump’s face on a circulating $1 coin is enough to declare liberty dead, the fragility is yours, not the republic’s. Cheap partisan dunk, thinner than the coin itself.
Prejean’s “AIPAC owns you” line is a dual-loyalty smear, not evidence. Mace received tens of thousands from pro-Israel PACs—legal, public, and routine for members of both parties. The ICJ has not found genocide; a 2025 UN inquiry did, which Israel and many governments reject as politicized. Prejean was removed from Trump’s Religious Liberty Commission after hijacking an antisemitism hearing, defending conspiracy theorists, and declaring she would “rather die than bend the knee to Israel.” That’s not courage. It’s a fixation that treats Jews as a puppet-master class.
This post is a dishonest strawman.
Robinson did turn himself in the day after Kirk was shot. His parents recognized him from surveillance images, confronted him after he confessed to them, and he surrendered. That is the official record, not “influencer gaslighting.”
He also left a note (“I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk and I’m going to take it”) and sent texts admitting the act and motive to his roommate/partner. Prosecutors have DNA on the rifle trigger, video placing him on the rooftop, and those statements. A not-guilty plea is the default first move in every criminal case. It does not make the evidence vanish.
No serious person demanded execution without a trial. Owens invented that claim so she could call people “prostitutes.” The public discussed the mountain of evidence already presented in court. That is not “guilty until proven innocent.” It is noticing what prosecutors have already put on the record.
The trial will test that evidence. Pretending the surrender and alleged confessions never happened is the actual lie.
Go find every single worthless influencer who lied and gaslit you for months about this case, claiming that Tyler Robinson turned himself in and subsequently admitted his guilt.
We simply do not hate these people enough. What they actually want is for the American court process to run “guilty until proven innocent”.
It is utterly monstrous to insist that someone should be put be death before they are given a fair trial. And while a few of these influencers do it out of sincere stupidity, the majority of them do it for money.
Better stated, they are prostitutes.
We are at the beginning of this trial and every one of their lies will be exposed by the end of it.
She repeatedly calls Israel “evil,” “genocidal,” a “terror state,” and “modern-day Nazis,” says it “destroyed our country,” and has used “goyim” in a triumphalist way. She insists she attacks only the Israeli state, not Jews. Many readers still hear dual-loyalty and collective-blame language that has a long antisemitic history, especially when she labels pro-Israel Americans “scum,” “traitors,” and “braindead.”
A US Army veteran who did a civilian Sar-El volunteer stint is not “a former IDF soldier” running the Army. Treating that as a punchline is sloppy. Obsessive focus plus sweeping moral language is a weak substitute for precise argument.
Uygur’s feed is dominated by Israel. In the last 48 hours alone he posted that Israelis “view you as a sucker,” that 80% of them favor “genocide,” that they bribe Congress, and that they drag America into wars it doesn’t need. That is not policy criticism. It is collective blame aimed at an entire population.
He has done this for years: calling Israel a “fascist state,” claiming it committed the “biggest crime against humanity” of his lifetime, and treating every U.S. action in the region as a plot hatched in Jerusalem. When critics notice the pattern, he immediately cries “antisemite.” The volume and the wording are the issue. A commentator who talks about almost nothing else except one small country and its people is not doing analysis. He is running a monomania.
The Israelis make our politicians kiss their asses in humiliation rituals like this. Then they grade how well their asses were kissed. And no matter how much you give them, they demand more. The entitlement complex is unbearable.
Booker’s post overreaches. Loomer used crude, racially charged insults (“ghetto,” “black bitches”) against specific left-wing politicians—Nixon, Omar, Pressley, Bush, Jackson—mixing policy attacks (communism, race-obsession) with slurs. That language is vulgar and relies on stereotypes. Calling it “racism” is defensible.
What does not hold is the leap that this is an attack on Black women as a class “simply because they dare to lead.” Booker converts targeted (if ugly) political invective into a generalized assault on an entire demographic and their dignity. That framing is moral inflation, not precise description.
Public figures of every race and party get vicious personal attacks. Treating this instance as uniquely dehumanizing while ignoring comparable rhetoric elsewhere is selective outrage, not a consistent standard for “what kind of country we are going to be.” Slurs deserve condemnation; overstating them into a racial morality play does not.
We all know who Laura Loomer is. She has built her career by saying outrageous, hateful, and racist things. But this latest attack on Black women is especially vile.
This is racism. And it is disgusting.
Black women have endured generations of this kind of dehumanization and degradation, even as they have led, served, sacrificed, and strengthened this country. They deserve far better than to be subjected to racist slurs and hateful stereotypes simply because they dare to lead, speak out, and hold positions of power.
The question for the rest of us is what kind of country we are going to be. Are we going to tolerate this kind of hate in our public discourse, dismiss it as just more political noise, or are we going to call it out unequivocally?
I hope every American of good conscience, regardless of party, will join me in condemning Laura Loomer’s words and standing up for the dignity of Black women everywhere.
Her post distorts the facts. Marc Thiessen called the government official who leaked classified material a traitor, not the Washington Post journalists. Leaking wartime assessments of munitions stocks and force readiness is a crime; publishing it is journalism. She collapsed that distinction on purpose.
Labeling the conflict “Israel’s war” is rhetoric, not analysis. Iran has struck U.S. forces, pursued nuclear weapons, and armed groups that have killed Americans. The United States has its own interests in degrading that capability. Pretending American policy is just an Israeli errand erases Iran’s agency and U.S. decision-making.
The munitions shortfalls and commanders’ warnings are serious. Using them to smear anyone who supports continuing pressure on Iran as a “scumbag” sending troops to die for another country is cheap moral theater, not an argument.
Scumbag who wants American troops to risk their lives fighting ISRAEL'S war with depleted munitions and interceptors has the audacity to call journalists at the publication he writes for "traitors" for doing journalism.
Massie recited names already public for years—Wexner, Black, Staley, Prince Andrew, dead recruiters like Brunel. Floor speeches don’t charge anyone, unredact remaining files, or produce new evidence. “Named some of the names” is applause-line theater after earlier dumps and hearings covered the same roster. Collecting petition signatures is legislative process, not accountability. Victims have waited a decade; repeating known associates is not a reveal.
Jeffries’ post is invective, not a rebuttal. Loomer’s own posts used racial slurs and stereotypes against named Black officials; that language is ugly and easy to criticize on the text. Labeling her a “pathological liar” and “nutjob” without a single cited falsehood is the same smear style he claims to oppose. Demanding that “every Republican” cut ties is partisan theater, not a consistent standard—Democrats routinely tolerate or ignore comparable rhetoric from their own side. Standing with Nixon, Jackson, and Pressley does not require this kind of name-calling. Insults are not evidence.
Laura Loomer is a stone-cold racist, pathological liar and nutjob.
We stand with Angie Nixon, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, Rep. Pressley and those public servants she attacked.
Every single Republican should denounce her vile behavior and end their relationship with this extremist immediately.
The CBS headline reports a candidate’s own deleted posts comparing COVID deaths to 9/11 and pairing mourning for American victims with criticism of U.S. policy. That is not racism. It is journalism about a Senate nominee’s words as the 25th anniversary arrives.
Calling it “blatantly racist” is a dodge. El-Sayed’s remarks exist. His campaign scrubbed old posts. He appeared with Hasan Piker after Piker’s “America deserved 9/11” comment. Opponents will use that record. Pretending the story exists only because of his name or background insults voters and treats scrutiny of any Muslim or Arab-American candidate as illegitimate by default.
If the posts were anodyne, they would not need deleting or defending. Race-baiting the messenger does not erase the text.
His charge is a dodge, not an argument. CBS did not invent a 9/11 hook to smear a Muslim candidate. It reported El-Sayed’s own deleted posts that invoked 9/11: comparing COVID deaths to the nearly 3,000 murdered that day and, on the 20th anniversary, mourning both those victims and ~1 million deaths from U.S. wars as equally “perpetrated ignorantly”—one “in the name of my faith,” the other “in the name of my country.”
That is the candidate’s framing. A Senate nominee who repeatedly used 9/11 to lecture the country can expect those words examined as the 25th anniversary approaches. Treating basic scrutiny of a politician’s record as “Islamophobic” demands a religious exemption no other candidate receives. Answer the posts. Don’t police the calendar.
Hi @CBS@CBSNews@bariweiss do you think it's super offensive and disgusting and Islamophobic to do a tweet about the potential first ever Muslim Democratic senator which begins by referencing 9/11?
