NEW: While arguing for the admission of tweets and social media posts evocative of Trump’s pressure campaign on witnesses, the DA’s office drops this: “Shortly, we will be seeking an order to show cause why Defendant should not be held in contempt” for violating the gag order.

Quick advice to Americans doing their taxes at the last minute (as I do).

If you can't or won't pay the full amount owed by the tax deadline, just pay something.

Pay anything. Pay $1, pay $10, pay $100, and you'll go into the bucket of "underpayment" (which is common and relatively minor) versus "nonpayment" (which is serious, and gives them permission to garnish your wages.)

Best advice I ever got from a tax preparer.

As Trump's first criminal trial starts this week, the possibility of giving him classified intelligence information looms as a national security crisis waiting to happen. Trump shouldn’t get access to intelligence briefings as the GOP nominee. Add your name if you agree: act.indivisible.org/sign/deny-

@Powerfromspace1 @mastodonmigration @Strandjunker Trump/MAGA the goal is to tear down the Federal Govt as it exists replacing it with authority akin to Mother Russia where a pseudo-President, actual dictator holds power indefinitely by force, despite the will of the people. It’s well past time that the working class jerkoffs supporting this poison wake the hell up. 🤬

The situation is surreal, potentially an overwhelming mass casualty event, so what do Israelis do? Make a joke meme playing off Shabbat candlelighting times for when the drones are arriving in Tel Aviv, Haifa, and Jerusalem:

Confidential to the person who made the post that when they see a homeless person, they wonder if it was the drinking or the homelessness that came first:

I was (thankfully briefly) homeless three times in my life, twice as a child and once as a college student. No alcohol involved. I was not homeless because of my choices, but homeless I was nevertheless. People become homeless for a depressingly wide range of reasons.

Think better before you post next time, please. Thanks.

#Iran is gonna be sorry for this attack on #Israel

There is no world where this will go unpunished by Israel. None.

And retaliation will be devastating...I'm thinking Pharaoh-Red-Sea kinda' devastation...

Israeli officials say there'll be a significant Israeli response to the ongoing and unprecedented attack by Iran, reports Keshet 12 in Israel. mako.co.il/news-military/2024_

While I am not Israeli, I know what's at stake. We are under attack, but we are together.

There will be time to discuss other conflicts but right now, under Iranian drone and rocket fire #IStandWithIsrael

#JesseWatters is truly one of the dumbest people in media. #FoxNews is literally the only place he could hold down a media job. Watters got his big break after accosting Asian New Yorkers on the street, and humiliating them with astonishingly racist mockery and insults. He would have been fired from any other job, but Fox recognized a unique POS who would resonate with their audience. I wanna spit in his face so bad...

More than 100 missiles and drones sent by Hezbollah and Iran are hammering down on Israel tonight.

Imagine how different our world would have been, if the US and the EU had stopped Russia in Ukraine in 2022.

We showed weakness, and now every insane dictator wants to rule the world.

This is not the way.

I live in central Israel. 15 minutes from Tel Aviv.

I'm hearing booms.

This is an interesting way to say that prices are high (corporate greed), wages are low (corporate greed) and over half of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck.

US forces in the Middle East "continue to shoot down Iranian-launched drone targeting Israel," a US military official confirms to VOA.
