Can’t get over the ballot drop in LA of 24,000 where there wasn’t a single vote for Pratt.
If you ran for mayor in a small city where there were 24,000 votes cast, even if no one knew who you are and you never campaigned, or even if you were a universally despised pariah, you’d still get a few dozen by accident or as a joke.
The probability of this is like winning the Powerball five times in a row.
This is what 2020 was like btw
Thomas Massie never mentioned the USS Liberty crew once in 13 years in Congress.
Loses his primary, and now he's memorializing them on the House floor.
Using the deaths of Americans as your ticket into podcastistan is a new low
Well, sorry to burst your bullshit bubble, but the USS Liberty was also attacked in the middle of a war - the Six-Day War, in fact. But I'm sure you knew that.
Iraq was not an enemy of the US when that Iraqi jet fired two anti-ship missiles at the Stark. In fact, the US was providing a lot of aid to Iraq at the time, and the CIA provided Baghdad with vital, useful intelligence during the Iran-Iraq War, since Iran was a real enemy.
Just like with the Liberty, the Stark attack was unprovoked. Iraq claimed the ship had been thought to be an Iranian tanker; morons like you buy that BS.
Oh, and the Iraqi pilot? He is reported to have received a medal, and later defected to...Iran.
Dipshits who don't know history should probably shut the fuck up about it.
That's not true. Google is your friend; look up the many ceremonies and memorializing of what happened to the Liberty and those who died.
Also, dipshit, the last I checked...Iraq is also a foreign country. That foreign country used Exocet missiles to murder AMERICANS, but you only obsess over Israel.
Israel, which apologized and paid damages.
More died on the Stark, but you give Iraq a pass while holding Israel forever accountable.
I wonder why that is...
@imtweetn@RepThomasMassie@ArtificeNation@cspan But he's not against Iraqi attacks against US Navy ships that killed more sailors than died on the USS Liberty?
Weird.
Weird that he would only choose to honor and memorialize the USS Liberty but not the USS Stark.
Very weird.
Go sell your bullshit someplace else.
@RepThomasMassie@ArtificeNation@cspan Don't forget the USS Stark. Oh, wait, you did.
May 17, 2026, passed by without any stunt by you bringing attention to the 37 US Navy personnel who died in that Iraqi attack.
Did you memorialize the brave crew of the USS Stark, @RepThomasMassie? Dozens killed in an attack on May 17, 1987. I don't recall you saying a word on the anniversary of that Iraqi attack.
On June 8, 2026, I’ll speak on the floor of the House to honor and memorialize the brave crew of the 🇺🇸 USS Liberty who died and were wounded in an unprovoked attack by 🇮🇱 Israel on June 8, 1967. Catch my speech on @cspan.
Russia doesn’t do tourist visas for Americans right now. The State Dept has a Level 4 advisory - Do not travel. So when @RealCandaceO shows up in Moscow calling it a “family vacation,” ask yourself: how does that happen?
Remember Brittney Griner? Russia held her like a chess piece until we traded a literal arms dealer to get her back. Americans aren’t tourists to the Kremlin; they’re assets.
Candace didn’t sneak in. She was invited to speak at Putin’s own economic forum, alongside sanctioned Russian state figures. The only way an American walks into Russia in 2026 is if Russia opens the door.
Call it what you want. But nothing about that trip was a vacation.
As you can see here, it's 17:05:30 and then 17:06:00.
Thirty seconds have passed.
If 30 seconds pass, the vote count should increase, right?
But what happened?
The total went from 25,617,541 votes to 25,617,431 votes.
Instead of increasing, it actually decreased by 110 votes.
This is the result of computer manipulation.
We captured all of this, and earlier this morning we already checked cases in parts of Gangwon Province where the vote count was decreasing.
Vote totals are not supposed to decrease.
But the vote count is decreasing, everyone.
This means someone is manipulating the numbers.
Why do you think there was a wildfire near the National Election Commission in Gwacheon?
To destroy evidence of election fraud.
But more evidence like this will come pouring out from all over the country.
We cannot let this pass this time.
If Israel would have attacked an international airport injuring 63 people we would have seen global condemnations and many prominent figures shouting “war crimes”.
When Iran does it the respond is “oh well”
It’s June 4 right now in China. Time to remember the heroic people of China, of all ages, who flooded the streets across the country to call for their freedom, only to be met by guns and tanks. Their courage must not be forgotten. The Party does not represent them.
U.S. Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) says he is growing increasingly concerned that President Donald Trump may make a deal with Iran.
"Nuclear dust, that’s the reason why we’re here. This is why I was reasoned and ok with setting myself politically on fire to be the only Democrat for the last 90 days voting against these war powers acts. Presidents always talk about their legacy. At this point, if you cave just for political convenience, what kind of legacy is that?"

The war re-established American deterrence in an yuuuge, unmistakable way. Coming off the brilliant Venezuelan operation, going into Iran put China on notice. The bad guys were wringing their hands.
But then…the ceasefire, including @POTUS’s rush into it, his wishy-washy comments, his unjustified extensions, and his empty threats? All that erased all those gains. We’re back to where we started.
Trump’s foreign policy legacy could end up being worse than Obama’s. Maybe even worse than Carter’s.
I didn’t think he had it in him to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, but Qatar, Pakistan, and Turkey did. And he proved them right.
As a longtime fan of President Trump, this is painful to see.
One of Trump's greatest successes was his "peace through strength" foreign policy.
He now risks throwing his entire foreign policy legacy away.
Iran attacked four Gulf countries yesterday. The attacks resulted in casualties and significant material damage.
Trump is not only minimizing it, not only excusing it, and not only failing to respond to it, but he's also forcing Israel's hand against Hezbollah, all in a futile attempt to reach what seems to be a capitulationist deal.
Iran is more arrogant and emboldened than ever, and it's not hard to see why.
Trump begging them for a deal, allowing them to drag out negotiations, and failing to respond to blatant provocations makes him look weak and pathetic.
Our deterrence is practically nonexistent.
I wish I was wrong. I hope there's something more to it than we can see. But I'm afraid there isn't.
@POTUS could have avoided this symbolic defeat if he had stayed the course and actually forced Iran into the UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER he'd originally demanded of them.
Instead, he listened to Pakistan, Qatar, and Turkey...and now he's lost his edge in Congress AND at the negotiating table.
