Jimmy Dore on Thomas Massie’s loss: “We obviously don’t have democracy.”
“It’s an oligarchy.”
“Which is why we have homelessness everywhere.”
“You go bankrupt when you get sick.”
“We go bankrupt just to get educated.”
“And we live in a surveillance state.”
“We’re like China, except we have more street crime and slower trains.”
“How dare we preach democracy around the world and that the people in China are oppressed when we obviously don’t have democracy here?”
“They did that Princeton study in 2015 about how 90% of people, their wishes never are expressed in legislation.”
“It’s only the top 10% of the wealthy people.”
“Your vote literally doesn’t matter.”

🚨🇮🇱🇺🇸 BOMBSHELL: The Pentagon raised Israel's counterintelligence threat level to "critical," the highest possible designation, over concerns Israel is aggressively spying on top U.S. officials.
According to U.S. officials, the Defense Intelligence Agency issued the assessment in recent weeks because Israel is making "a particular effort to surveil top U.S. officials to get information on the Trump administration's internal deliberations and decision-making" on Iran and Lebanon.
Yep, read that again.
America's "closest ally" is now rated a critical counterintelligence threat, the same tier as hostile foreign powers, because it's spying on the President's inner circle to find out whether he'll resume bombing Iran or sign the deal.
The details are stunning.
U.S. officials already use burner phones and avoid speaking in hotel rooms when visiting Israel.
A CSIS expert calls Israeli intelligence "hyper-aggressive" and "exceedingly interested in what we are up to."
Now stack the timeline.
Trump screams at Netanyahu, "you're f***ing crazy."
The Axios leak that enraged Levin.
Netanyahu's letter designing permanent military integration.
Section 224 linking the two countries' military systems and data.
And now the Pentagon formally designating Israel a critical espionage threat, in the same weeks Congress moves to wire Israel directly into America's defense industrial base.
The two stories are happening simultaneously and almost nobody has connected them.
The Pentagon says Israel is spying on America at a critical level.
Congress is responding by giving Israel deeper access to American military systems than ever before.
At what point does Washington admit this relationship is not what Americans were told it is?

@kamikazecash Just had my first. Love her so much and I wouldn't change anything, but my understanding and respect for both sides grew.
This is a lifelong commitment. If it's not right for you, more power to you for realizing.
As a dad weighing in, have kids if you want to. Don’t have kids if you don’t want to.
Children will change 100% of your life’s activities. I can’t think of any aspect of life that is not drastically changed by having kids.
It is the most consequential decision you’ll make. It is a lifelong labor of love. It’s not trivial.
“Jesus wants you to have kids.”
- Jesus didn’t even have kids
“Social security will go insolvent”
- Govt’s problem, not yours
“Your ancestors are counting on you”
- No they’re not. They’re dead.
“Bloodlines!”
- Only relevant if you are a monarch
All of these arguments are fake and dumb. Have kids if you want them, and don’t have kids if you don’t. You owe no one an explanation.
🇺🇸 TODAY: JPMorgan, Citi and major US banks are launching a new tokenized deposit system to compete with crypto.
YESTERDAY: Stripe, Visa and Mastercard backed a new stablecoin platform.
Looks like the big companies already know the CLARITY Act is about to get approved.
🚨 JUST IN: JPMorgan, Citi, and major US banks plan to launch a tokenized deposit network next year to fend off growing competition from stablecoins and crypto firms.
WTF timeline are we on. Someone called me the MAGA whisperer and I’ll gladly take the title. Left, right, D or R we all want the same things. We’re being divided on purpose by the Epstein Elite Oligarch class because as long as we’re at each other’s throats, they get fat and rich off of our misery. The second we figure out we agree on more than we disagree, they’re done. Love your neighbor. Be yourself. Radical honesty. No fucks given, no fucks taken. Everything else is just noise. (But still fuck Jake “Brick Tamland” Tapper on any time line)
“when i choose to see the good side of things, i'm not being naive. it is strategic and necessary. it's how I've learned to survive through everything”
"Young Americans hate you. They view you as a bunch of paternalistic dickheads who crashed the system in 2008"
Austin on why the bank lobby has gotten old, out of touch, and is losing the stablecoin debate
"The bank lobby has gotten incredibly old and out of touch. SoFi has opened more accounts over the last few years than all of the big four combined. They don't like you guys"
"You're arguing things that are factually wrong and the people who are informed on finance understand this. Anybody saying US dollar stablecoins cause deposits to leave the banking system in aggregate does not understand how bank deposits work"
"It is not mechanically possible for that to happen. Bank deposits are destroyed when you take money out of an ATM, when you repay a loan, when a bank sells an asset off the balance sheet. None of those involve a stablecoin"
