Yes, Harris was right. We all told you this would happen. Fuck everyone who said it wouldn't & voted for Trump. Fuck every cowardly Republican who refuses to end it.
"Let me ask you tonight, do you think Donald Trump is a fascist?"
@KamalaHarris: "Yes, I do. [There] is a legitimate fear based on Donald Trump's words and actions that he will not obey an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States."

An ICE agent intentionally ran over a man. The agent gets out as the victim wails in agony and casually flips the man's injured leg out of his way so he can handcuff him. Agent admits on camera that he hit him, but ICE still publicly lied, blaming the man

Let’s not forget the July 4th flood on the Guadalupe River. 117 Americans lost their lives. President Biden allotted money to Abbott to upgrade the sirens on the river. Abbott DID NOT upgrade the sirens. Instead he gave deputies a pay raise.
WTF Texas?!🤬

Cool, Trump's Minnesota fraud was much larger than the Somali one he always screams about.
"New records obtained by KARE 11 show the company that owned a vacant private prison in Appleton, Minnesota offered to sell it to the state in 2025 for $75 million.
One year later, the Trump administration agreed to use taxpayer funds to buy the same abandoned prison from CoreCivic, Inc., for $495.6 million.
The price difference, $420 million, is more than taxpayers are estimated to have lost in Minnesota’s much-publicized Feeding Our Future fraud scandal." kare11.com/article/news/inve…

With an over reaction like that, it sounds like angry Scott Bessent might have just gotten caught with his hand in the cookie jar.

It's an open secret under the Gold Dome: Georgia Republicans plan to redraw our maps AFTER you vote on Nov. 3.
The only check on a generation of one-party rule is our next governor. That's why I'm voting for @KeishaBottoms.

Trump can no longer claim the high ground on economics.
With gas prices above $4, elevated inflation, sluggish job growth, and cratering consumer sentiment, it’s no wonder voters prefer Democrats on the economy.

CoreCivic drops $500k on the Trump-Vance inaugural and cashes out with $2.2B in taxpayer-funded facility sales from DHS — roughly a 4,400x ROI (return on investment).

When costs are up and profits are steady, that’s inflation.
When costs are up and profits are up, that’s price gouging.
The two largest U.S. oil companies, ExxonMobil and Chevron, report blowout profits that easily beat expectations as oil prices remain sharply elevated because of the U.S. war with Iran. nbcnews.com/business/energy/…

WEEKS of faux outrage that Biden left behind people who supported us in Afghanistan. Trump literally sending their family members back there will be (at best) a one day story.

I just want to be clear the media has never done this for Republicans when they play these kind of tricks, which literally happened very recently in Florida.
CNN: Did it impact your vote at all?
Alaska Voter: Not a bit.
CNN: Can you tell who's who here?
AV: Absolutely. You've got Daniel J. Sullivan Jr. and then you have Sullivan Dan, who's a registered Republican and incumbent. And I don't even have my glasses on. It's pretty clear it's in black and white. It's very clear.

THE MOST INCOMPETENT WAR IN HISTORY: SARAH PAINE ON TRUMP’S IRAN DISASTER
Dr. Sarah Paine, a leading historian of great-power conflict and strategy, delivers a blunt verdict on the Iran war. She calls it one of the most incompetent wars in human history. The decision ignored basic principles of assessment, put maximum costs on America itself, and left permanent damage to the country’s power and alliances. This is not hindsight—it is the predictable result of hubris meeting reality.
THE CORE VERDICT
➡️ “The Iran war is probably one of the most incompetent wars in human history.”
➡️ A competent war puts the costs on the enemy and minimizes them for yourself.
➡️ This one did the opposite.
THE COST CATASTROPHE
➡️ It trashed the US economy.
➡️ It blew the US alliance system.
➡️ Iran is hurting, but the collateral damage is taking down the world’s economy.
➡️ That transforms the United States from a partner into an annoyance—and for many, a primary adversary—because it is threatening their economies.
➡️ “That’s breathtakingly incompetent.”
THE STRATEGIC BLIND SPOT
➡️ Any serious assessment looks at the enemy’s strengths and your own weaknesses, plus everyone else who might intervene.
➡️ That was absent.
➡️ The first thing Iran would do is shut Hormuz. Narrow seas close in wartime. Ukraine already showed this with the Black Sea.
➡️ Shore artillery, mines, and other tools stop traffic. There is no mystery here.
➡️ The big naval base in Bahrain becomes unreachable. The fallback is Diego Garcia, 2,500 miles away in the middle of nowhere. “That would be a mess.”
THE HUBRIS THAT MADE IT POSSIBLE
➡️ The people making the calls are historically unqualified for the job. That makes them profoundly dangerous.
➡️ Type A hubris assumes all decisions that matter happen in the United States.
➡️ Type B hubris assumes being good at one thing makes you good at everything.
➡️ Half-court tennis: you only watch your own side and never study the other team.
➡️ The Iranians understand Americans far better than Americans understand them.
THE UNFEASIBLE OBJECTIVE
➡️ Trying to “solve” Iran with 90 million people was never realistic.
➡️ Nazi Germany had roughly 80 million and required an occupation force of about 1.5 million just to hold it after the war—before counting everyone else.
➡️ The goal was unattainable. Pursuing it guarantees overextension and a bad ending.
➡️ The lesson the world takes is simple: get a nuke. The war incentivized proliferation.
➡️ This was a pivotal error. The choices that existed before are gone and will not return. “We will never be the trusted partner ever again. It’s done.”
THE BOTTOM LINE
The Iran war did not merely fail. It maximized American costs, destroyed trust with allies, and handed every rival a clearer reason to treat the United States as a threat to their own prosperity. Competence would have contained the problem at affordable cost. Hubris chose the opposite.
This is what permanent strategic damage looks like.

It’s just crazy how literally nothing can break the perception that republicans are fiscally conservative. It does not matter that republicans have exploded the debt and deficit every time for the last 50 years, people still insist they’re fiscally conservative
