💥Hours before Gadi Eisenkot is expected to get the nod, Netanyahu posts a video, apparently new, in which he seems genuinely panicked, calls on his supporters to stop the formation of any new government by any means necessary, and threatens violence. For 11 days, no one has seen this man in public.

In his first public appearance since winning the election, @JamesTalarico adds his “I voted” sticker to Lorenzo Salgado’s memorial in Houston. Lorenzo was murdered by ICE 4 months ago today.

Thinking again about one of, in my opinion, the best political ads in modern history. Just a simple, well-crafted gut punch. Barack Obama 2012 - Romney Is the Problem, not the Solution

Duffy: The war shot inflation up because of diesel prices and people could not – Hurt: Diesel prices are up for a lot of reasons. Duffy: Okay, so the war was not the issue, okay. Well, we won’t believe the exit polls. Hurt: all the exit polls do not list the war— Duffy: It was inflation which the war exacerbated. Hurt: And traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, oil traffic is basically back where it was. You have a decades’ long assault by Democrats on the oil and gas industry in this country which is a real problem. Duffy: Of course. Hurt: You have the war in Russia and Ukraine, they’re blowing up refineries, these are all problems

Unless RFK Jr. is interested in spending the next two years in front of Congressional committees, he should go ahead and resign now.

Seems like a low-value product
Exclusive: The right-wing activist Laura Loomer has been paid by private clients to make political posts on social media without publicly disclosing the payments, according to a former Trump campaign aide and others familiar with the arrangements. wapo.st/4BPQbL5

Love it! Trump waddles his lard-a$$ away after a reporter asks him how it feels to be a “LOSER!” 😂
Reporter: “How does it feel to be a loser, Mr. President?” Trump: Waddles away like a lumbering fat fuck, pedophile piece of shit loser.

Perhaps DOJ dropped its case because they essentially have no lawyers who will argue these bogus cases?

Simply amazing
THE WAR IN IRAN WAS AND IS NECESSARY 🇺🇸
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Rob Schneider has previously been against the Iran War and demanded the following: "NO WAR WITH IRAN! NO WAR WITH IRAN! NO WAR WITH IRAN!" x.com/RobSchneider/s… x.com/Thiss_Youu/sta…

In March, @DonforOhio was fingerprinted, mugshotted, and jailed in Grove City, Ohio, for using a bullhorn at a No Kings protest. In January, he’ll put his hand on a Bible and be sworn into Congress. @Timodc: “That’s a pretty good trajectory.”
