Sen. Tom Emmer defending #PutinsPuppet for making a unilateral deal to purchase #diesel from Russia:

"He's just thinking outside the box!"

Last week, there was rampant vandalism around Cornell University in response to the university's rape culture, refusal to investigate and prosecute those reponsible, and the university's heavy-handed tactics towards protesters. It's obvious they have bent the knee to #Trump. Don't send your daughters there.

JAKE TAPPER: In terms of tactics, shouldn't agents be checking if a 5-year-old is in the vehicle before fire into it?

MARKWAYNE MULLIN: You know who the 5-year-old was in the car? Oscar did. Why you put your child into a situation like that?

Two of Trump's own Senate candidates asked him to keep American diesel at home. He told them no. Then he hung up with Putin and announced a Russian diesel deal. Tell Congress to draft the articles:

Kid Rock told a crowd full of religious trump cultists that "No religious cult or ideology gets to override our Constitution."

Without the slightest hint of self-awareness.

"After the Soviet Union crumbled in 1991, Ukraine had the third-largest stockpile of nuclear weapons in the world. In exchange for Ukraine’s giving up those weapons, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Russia agreed to secure Ukraine’s borders."

--Heather Cox Richardson today, reminding us of just how awful this is.

The US, teaching the world never to give up nuclear weapons.

THIS AGED HORRIBLY: Pete Hegseth attacked reports of additional American deaths in Trump's Iran war.

“Even if we wanted to attempt to hide a combat death, we never would and we never could.”

“Totally made up. It's fake. It's a lie.”

Now the Pentagon has raised the official death toll to 21.

Zelensky: If President Trump really wants to have elections, tell Putin to give us two months, 60 days of a total ceasefire, and we will organize elections. Of course, we will be ready for any choice of our people

PSA: when Trump, @MarshaBlackburn, @BrentTaylorTN and other Republicans mock “socialism” what they’re really mocking is the idea of caring about other people

@randahl The true purpose of the slob's diesel deal with Russia isn't to ease local supply issues.

It's so that, when Ukraine bombs another one of Russia's refineries, the slob can declare Ukraine a terrorist state for attacking a critical American supply line, and either impose sanctions, or attack it directly.

These midterms couldn't be more important. You do not get to sit them out. Ensure your voter registration is current, and then vote Democratic. All offices. No exceptions.

Question reporters should be asking every Republican elected:
Your president trusts Putin, praises Putin, is beholden to Putin, and wants to help Putin annex more of Ukraine.
What are you going to do about it?

I contacted both my senators and my District Representative at their online websites. I left them an explicit note that says no live streaming executions. Don’t let Hegseth get his jollies. He’s a sick twisted person.

@AlliFlowers They could at least make it on a Sunday. I think Sweden is day-of only but Sunday is a much better day.

Or make it a holiday for people to get out of work at least!
