Old white guy, VN combat medic, no posterity, financially secure. No guarantees, but I try to check all posts & reposts with Google, Snopes, Politifact etc.

Here is Georgia Republican senate candidate praising University of Mississippi students making monkey noises at a Black woman.

This is so bent. Democrats fought for Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, labor laws, anti-pollution laws, voting rights, food-safety standards, equal pay—all to make this a better country and all over GOP opposition. Show some frickin' gratitude for that.

It's only Tuesday and Trump has fucked up a pool for $14 Million, lost a war agreeing to pay Iran $300 Billion, and ballooned his already expensive ballroom budget by another $200 Million.

Where are the Republicans screaming about "waste, fraud and abuse"?

[Han Shawnity 🇺🇸 @HanShawnity]

What we're conceding:
- Unfreezing Iranian funds
- $300 billion reconstruction fund
- Hezbollah is untouchable
- Iran can execute protesters at will
- Iran retains control over the Strait of Hormuz
- Lifting of sanctions
- Ballistic missile program will not be restrained
- Funding of terrorist proxies will not be restricted

What Iran is conceding:
- They promise to be nice
- Might sit down for negotiations to discuss the nuclear program. No commitments.

Truly genius deal.

Serial child molestor Adam Hoffman has officially been added to the Nebraska sex offender registry based on his charges in Texas.

This comes after Ken Paxton’s plea deal failed to register him as a sex offender in Texas and let him back on our streets.

Maybe they should dump some ivermectin in there too.

🚨 Conservative pastor Aaron Gleason was arrested for m*lesting a little girl during Bible class.

He previously accused drag queens of "grooming" children.

@SundaeDivine Hey bud can I have some of them 2028 stickers you got in your truck?

[𝕊𝕦𝕟𝕕𝕒𝕖_𝔾𝕦𝕣𝕝 @SundaeDivine]

Donald Trump is amazing. My truck used to hold $60 of gas and now it holds $120 of gas. I don't know how he does it but the man is a jenius.

@factpostnews @iblockmagats MAGA: “That just shows how smart he is.”

[FactPost @factpostnews]

Markwayne Mullin had the FDA delete warnings about the dangers of kratom, an addictive and sometimes lethal drug found in gas stations.

Mullin holds an up to $1 million stake in a major kratom company.

@Suzierizzo1 @TXWomenRESIST He also said those who attacked her were “patriots,” and pardoned them all.

Trump is a traitor and so is anyone who supports him.

The funny thing is how many of them don’t have a pot to piss in. But their Fúhrer makes them feel superior to Those Others, and that’s what matters.

[Suzie rizzio @Suzierizzo1]

This is Officer Caroline Edwards and she was one of the Capitol Police that defended the Capitol on J6 during the Insurrection. The rioters attacked her cracking her head open & leaving her with a permanent brain injury. Trump said it was Peaceful and full of Love that day!

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:

Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down

Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace

Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs

Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

@OccupyDemocrats countries - Iran is larger by every metric, from area to population and, like it or not, a government united under Shiite Islam (unlike Iran’s violent Shia-Sunni split).

Hopefully, Trump has learned why no previous president succumbed to Netanyahu’s pleas to crush Iran.

@OccupyDemocrats As someone (among many) who foresaw that the trumped-up “liberation” of Iraq would become a disaster, I was appalled that even there were rightwing chickenhawks urging the invasion of Iran.

A very quick online search showed the vast differences between those two
