The man who campaigned on 'no new wars' is mad at four Republicans for voting to end his new war.

[Illia Ponomarenko 🇺🇦 @IAPonomarenko]

And now the Kremlin says it is waging war against Ukraine to stop Ukrainian strikes on Moscow and St. Petersburg — strikes that simply did not exist until Russia invaded Ukraine.

The dumbest war in the dumbest timeline in human history.

Once you are willing to believe things without, and sometime against evidence, you can be convinced to believe anything.

How the hell did donald trump manage to convince Christians that he is one of them?????

[Ambassador Jonatan Vseviov @vseviov]

Putin is in trouble. This is precisely the wrong moment to offer him a way out.

Keep calm and stay the course. Our strategy is working.

To those concerned about the risks posed by a losing aggressor, remember: aggression succeeding would be far more dangerous.

The last thing Europe should do is self-deter.

[Ron Filipkowski @RonFilipkowski]

I’m not sure why, but I don’t trust Todd Blanche’s word that the criminal slush fund is dead.

Let’s still get some legislation.

Let’s make Republicans vote on that.

Then see if Trump vetoes it.

BREAKING:

Ukrainian long-range drones have hit several Russian warships at a drydock at the naval base in Kronstadt (St. Petersburg).

One of the vessels hit is the corvette Boikiy.
After destroying the Russian Black Sea Fleet, Ukraine is now destroying the Baltic Sea Fleet.

From someone who accepted millions in improper gifts, dodged his reporting requirements, won’t allow proper fact-finding, and may have failed to pay taxes, his “law-abiding” schtick is a bit ripe.

The Trump administration is sending ships to rip 900 ocean sensors out of the Atlantic and Pacific — and Congress already told them twice they couldn't do it.**
They're doing it anyway.

Hegseth’s ban on transgender military members being ruled unconstitutional on the first day of Pride is hilarious.

Frankel to Rubio: "It is crazy that you want to let people in from South Africa because they can assimilate, while you're throwing out hundreds of thousands of people who have already assimilated and that are important parts of our economy and family life."

[Fools Lightly @FoolsLightly]

Win short, lose long.

[Department of State @StateDept]

SECRETARY RUBIO: "I also want to remind everybody that the United States government is not a charity. We are not here to play social worker, we are here to win."

[JJ in NH @JustJoshinNH]

Somebody asked me today why I was wearing a pride bracelet if I’m straight and I pointed out their Red Sox cap doesn’t make them a member of the team

[Graham Platner for Senate @grahamformaine]

Susan Collins is spineless and corrupt.

And in 154 days, we will defeat her.

Discovery be a bitch.

[Molly Ploofkins @Mollyploofkins]

Now we know why Melania never followed through on her threat to sue Hunter Biden over his claim that Jeffrey Epstein introduced her to Trump.

[Britni Danielle @BritniDWrites]

So Virginia can't use their new map, which was approved by voters. But Alabama can?

But sure, SCOTUS isn't "political"

[Jaime Harrison @harrisonjaime]

The greatest threat to American democracy may no longer be found in Congress or the White House.

It may be found across the street.

The Roberts Court has become an unelected super legislature, rewriting decades of settled law, weakening voting rights, stripping away freedoms, and shielding the powerful from accountability.

This is not judicial restraint. This is judicial activism in a black robe.

History will not remember this Court as conservative. It will remember it as the Court that dismantled some of the most important civil rights and democratic safeguards of the last century.

Every federal candidate should run on reforming this Court. The American people deserve judges, not politicians with lifetime appointments.

He said he's getting rid of DEI to hire people based on merit then hired a guy who built houses to serve as the leader of the US intelligence community.

[Ro Khanna @RoKhanna]

Appointing Pulte, who has criminally targeted Trump's opponents and has zero experience, to be Director of National Intelligence, shows we have a mafia government.

The naked corruption is crazy and frightening.

[Ford News @FordJohnathan5]

BREAKINGNEWS: Secretary Marco Rubio stated during a congressional hearing that the war with Iran is over. Here is Iran bombing US bases in Kuwait just hours later. We are being led by idiots and liars. 🚨
