Congratulations to the old man, Donald Trump. After 15 years of unrestrained insecurity about Barack Obama, you've just admitted JPCOA was superior to anything you could do.

The reason the struggles Palestinians receive so much outsized attention compared to other groups is that there are 2 billion Muslims in the world. No one cares about other groups because they don't have a large diaspora to force grievances on the rest of us.
Years ago, I used to write about ethnic and religious minorities in the Middle East for numerous publications Two things stuck with me from that experience: (1) Left-of-center and liberal publications had next to no interest in the topic. I remember having a working lunch with an editor at the New York Times Magazine and he clearly had zero interest in the topic. He probably knew his readership all too well (2) There is absolutely no real money to be made in writing about Assyrians, Copts, and Zoroastrians. The fact that this is the case is deeply shameful and demonstrates why so many craven academics gravitate toward Palestinianism. There is a lot of $$$ there. And yet the critics will maintain it's supporters of Israel who are doing it for money

To all those who berated me on this platform for doubting that Trump cared about the human rights or democratic aspirations of the Iranian people, I accept your apology.
US President Donald Trump says he "never cared about regime change" in Iran. "This is third group we’ve dealt with… most rational group yet," he told the Wall Street Journal. iranintl.com/en/202606141396

I calculate that the deal rewards the regime about $750,000 for every unarmed protestor they massacred in January

The last time the Knicks won the Championship, the President (Nixon) resigned not too long after. Let's keep that level of hope today.

Just FYI... Iran just won the Trump-Iran war. And Trump gave away far more than Obama ever did.

BREAKING: Yesterday Hamas attacked multiple families in Gaza, shooting at women and children, and kidnapping men. You haven’t seen a word about from the New York Times or any so-called “pro-Palestinians,” weird.

If confirmed, this is a seismic scandal for both the worlds of politics and sports.
I’m a now deleted post by Daniel Cormier, Eric Trump DM’d him and asked him “are any of the fights tomorrow rigged?” 👀 #UFCWhiteHouse

My goodness. The coping is going hard. This is the biggest American humiliation since Vietnam, with the potential to be even greater than Vietnam if the leaked deal details are anywhere near correct.

Are you fucking dumb? Or drunk right now? Iran no nukes, no enrichment. No control of the strait. Irans leaders are dead. They got nothing. America got everything we wanted. Holy black pill. 😂

Wanna see what singular loyalty looks like? This woman is not loyal to the country she is elected to represent. Fuck this bitch.
This isn't hard: Condemn Israel’s genocide without equivocation. Israel’s violent ethnic cleansing of Palestine is wrong. This is simple and any leader should be able to say so. The fact my colleague cannot bring herself to say that is concerning.

How could he delete a post that didn’t exist?
We are aware of the fake, AI generated screenshots being circulated online. I have never spoken to Daniel. He has since deleted his post, which confirms it was clearly fabricated. @UFC @danawhite

#BREAKING: Hayes: “According to the NYTimes, the USPS has proposed a new rule that would allow it to REFUSE to deliver mail ballots in states that don’t turn over voter rolls to the federal government. That vaguely written rule released last week calls on states to compile lists of mail voters that postal service employees would use to screen ballots for eligibility. And if states refuse to comply, the post office could refuse to send their mail ballots. Can you imagine postal workers deputized by the Trump administration just refusing to deliver mail ballots to Californians? What about states that comply? Imagine postal workers at some place reviewing a state’s voter roll to determine who can vote and who can’t? Its unconstitutional, its chaotic, It’s maybe the wildest attempt yet to interfere in free and fair elections, short of course, of using federal agents to criminally investigate voting rights activists, to raid their office, maybe even perp walk them in for charges. That of course has been a classic old school tactic of election-rigging autocrats for generations around the world.” 😳

Today, I’m mourning my friend Melissa and her husband Mark, as we mark one year since they were assassinated in their home. Melissa was a dedicated public servant who worked every day to improve the lives of Minnesotans. That should never have cost her or her husband their lives. Being elected to serve our communities should never be life-threatening. From state legislatures to the White House, it’s time for our leaders to stand against armed political violence. My heart is in Minnesota and with Sophie, Colin, and the entire Hortman family as they continue to grieve this tragic loss.

Eric Trump stole from kids with cancer. So yes you are correct for always thinking the worst.

Donald Trump thinks protesting his birthday celebration means we hate America. Nah, we just hate you. Don't get it twisted.

One of my biggest problems with the DSA is when they present their candidates, they are inexperienced, have no foot in the communities are running in, and don’t know how government works. It’s like someone putting a child in a top chef’s kitchen to work.

Rep Jeffries nailed it: Trump ripped up a working nuclear deal because he suffers from Obama Derangement Syndrome. It brought together Britain, France, Germany, and more, but Trump destroyed it out of pure jealousy. Now Iran is stronger and Americans are less safe.

I agree, but no matter what's in it, Trump has presided over a major defeat.
I think the compromise consensus position for pretty much everybody of good faith should be that the full text of the agreement be released. There’s no reason to take Trump’s word or Iran’s or random leakers’ word for it. Release the text, period.
