CNN: The chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Gen. Dan Caine, has privately told top Trump advisers that the U.S. needs to find an off-ramp from the war with Iran, warning that escalating the conflict could backfire and that airpower alone is unlikely to achieve Trump’s stated objectives, according to three sources familiar with the matter.

“Caine is looking for an off ramp,” one source said bluntly.

🚨ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

Republican Senator Bill Cassidy CHOKES UP AND CRIES as he announces he will support the confirmation of Todd Blanche as Attorney General.

Cassidy was the last holdout. This is what is looks like when a man knows he sold his soul to the devil.

🚨CAUGHT ON TAPE: A Republican finally ADMITS what they’ve been denying for months:

Rick Scott: Republicans are going to have to cut your Social Security and Medicare as well as “any program you care about.”

I will never forget this portrait composed of the faces of healthcare workers across the world who died from Covid. These are the heroes who should never be forgotten.

[Jack Hopkins @thejackhopkins]

Prisciliano Trejo Ricano begged for a doctor for a week while he coughed up blood. Nobody came. He slipped into a coma… so ICE “released” him and said he’s not their problem. He died July 24. That’s not policy. That’s a body dump with paperwork.

F*ck ICE. F*ck Trump.

🚨BOMBSHELL: While Republicans drag Dr. Fauci, Gov. JB Pritzker just revealed that during COVID, Donald Trump told him he would only send life saving equipment if he agreed to praise him on the Sunday talk shows.

Is Donald Trump evil or just completely fucking deranged?

A real photo of Trump passed out at Lindsey Graham’s funeral today. Something is very, very wrong. Impeach and remove ASAP.

BREAKING: VINDICTIVE RETALIATION! Trump's own administration just admitted under oath that it canceled $7.5 billion in clean energy grants to states that didn't vote for him.

They finally admitted it. In their own words, in federal court.

The Trump administration canceled more than $7.5 billion in clean energy grants last October, claiming it was rooting out waste. As anyone with a modicum of consciousness expected, that was a lie. Federal officials have now conceded, in court documents, that they terminated the funding "based solely" on whether the recipient states voted for Kamala Harris in 2024.

Read that language again: "with one exception," a Department of Energy lawyer admitted, "the 284 terminated grants had a recipient location and/or at least one place of performance in a state that awarded its electoral votes to Kamala Harris... and has two Democratic-caucusing senators." The lawyer further conceded none of it was based on "any programmatic, statutory, cost-reduction or performance-based factor."

This isn't spin. This is the government confessing, under oath, to punishing Americans for how their state voted.
The Energy Department had originally recommended canceling over 600 grants across BOTH red and blue states. But when Russell Vought's budget office got involved, hundreds of grants in Republican states were quietly left untouched, while projects in Democratic states — grid upgrades in California and Oregon, methane leak reduction in Colorado, clean hydrogen hubs in the Pacific Northwest — got axed.

Vought even bragged about it publicly, framing it as killing "Green New Scam funding." This from a man who rivals Stephen Miller for the distinction of being the most evil person in the Trump administration — where there is admittedly quite a bit of competition for that title.

This directly contradicts sworn congressional testimony from Energy Secretary Chris Wright, who told lawmakers in June: "No decisions were made on politics." That claim just collapsed in a courtroom. It certainly sounds like a perjury charge is warranted here.

Senator Patty Murray and Representative Marcy Kaptur didn't mince words: "This is an astounding admission that the president and his team corruptly abused their power to kill good jobs and punish hard-working families because of their political views."

And it's about to get worse. The administration is finalizing new rules giving Trump's political appointees direct control over more than $1 TRILLION in annual federal grants — with power to block funding that doesn't align with his political priorities.

This isn't fiscal responsibility. It's a president using your tax dollars as a weapon against Americans who didn't vote for him and consolidating his authoritarian power.
Please like and share if Trump’s lies and vindictiveness make you apoplectic!

BREAKING: In a stunning and deeply alarming move, the Postmaster General has announced that the USPS will REFUSE to deliver mail-in ballots for the 2026 midterm elections to any state that does not comply with Donald Trump’s so-called “election integrity” executive order.

Let that sink in.

This is a direct attack on voting rights and a blatant attempt to strong-arm states into submission by threatening Americans’ access to the ballot box.

The Postal Service….an institution meant to serve EVERYONE—is now being weaponized to influence elections.
Democracy is not optional. Voting is not conditional. And no president gets to decide who can and cannot participate in our elections.

This should outrage every American, regardless of party.

[Joël.Arts.Paints This is our Canada 🇨🇦 @JoelVinette]

Canada has been really attacked by Trump & his administration, threatening our sovereignty, tariffs, American senators disrespecting us. I’d like to know who’s on team Canada. 🍁 Everyone across the globe in solidarity with Canadians flood the comment section with our flag 🇨🇦.

🚨BREAKING: Trump’s voter fraud speech is BACKFIRING as Americans flood social media with the recording of Trump demanding Georgia “find 11,780 votes” after he lost the 2020 election.

Trump is the last person on Earth who should be talking about election fraud.

Murray: Is it true that people making under $184,000 pay a 12.4% Social Security tax rate?

Dahl: Yes Murray:

And the rate for someone making $1,000,000?

Dahl: 2.2%

@krassenstein It’s mind blowing watching the bevy of little old white male sycophants and their nervous laughter at this ignoramus trying to be cute. They’d better check their pockets on the way out - wouldn’t be surprised if he had his staff lift a few wallets as well as the bell.

🚨SHOCKING: Republican Rep. Troy Nehls was asked how House Republicans will convince Americans they’re fighting to make life more affordable.

His answer: “I’m gonna get me a couple of big lobster tails… some nice rib eyes.”

Asked if the 60% living paycheck to paycheck can afford that, he replied: “Maybe the 60% of Americans don’t work as hard as I do.”

THIS is how they view Americans. THIS is what we should never forget.
