“A little off topic”?

REPORTER: What do the images of starving kids in Gaza make you feel?

TRUMP: Well, it's terrible. People are stealing the food. I think Iran is acting up. Venezuela is acting up in a different way. They continue to send people that we rebuff to our border.

Rewound it and yup. During Inside The NBA a cop starts bothering Brunson as he tries to take a pic with a fan. Jalen tells him to back up. Cop keeps at it. Rick Brunson calls him out.

Shout out to this lady that told the cop “he just won the NBA finals. Leave him alone.”

Not a lawyer, yet this seems to be part of what some people may have been worried about when SCOTUS made the infamous "immunity" ruling.
Trump: "I don't think we're necessarily going to ask for a declaration of war, I think we're just gonna kill people that are bringing drugs into our country. We're going to kill them. They're going to be, like dead."

No calls about "embarrass our guest" when going after Pres. Zelenskyy or Pres. Ramaphosa.
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

Wait, he said Iran should be able to defend themselves? Then why are we mad about it? (Sarcasm)

I just . . .
KAITLAN COLLINS: Are you okay with Iran having missiles?

SEN. ROGER MARSHALL: I prefer that they not, but they have to defend themselves

COLLINS: You think Iran needs to be able to defend itself?

MARSHALL: I do, otherwise we turn this into a forever war

"I just saw a headline" is now a legitimate answer to any question that needs more information? Unless the question is "Did you see the headline?", this does not fly, esp. from the Speaker of the House or anyone given a leadership role.

BTW: Portland is not "war-ravaged".
Johnson: "It's true that in previous shutdowns, many or most furloughed employees have been paid for the time they were furloughed, but there is new legal analysis - I don't know the details, I just saw a headline - but there are some legal analysts saying that might not be appropriate or necessary"

While Mr. Don Lemon may be getting the headlines, there are other journalists being pulled into this situation. For what, covering an event? I suspect it is more about intimidation, control, & as folks say back home, "putting them in their place".

You said, “"The president bears responsibility for Wednesday's attack on Congress by mob rioters.” (NPR 1-13-21)

“I’ve been very clear to the president — he bears responsibilities for his words and actions. … No if, ands or buts.” (Politico, reporting 12-15-23 about Jan. 6, 2021). /1

You know who else was the oldest person to be that country's president & would most likely applaud this move? Rodrigo Duterte of the Philippines. First won in 2016, too. What happened with him . . .
Drug trafficking is not a capital crime; it doesn’t carry a death sentence. I genuinely cannot think of anything under U.S. law that would permit premeditated government assassination of people suspected of drug trafficking.
Here's the video Trump just posted to Truth Social, with the claim that 11 people aboard the boat were killed.

There is zero evidence of self-defense here. Looks like a massacre of civilians at sea.

Even if they had drugs aboard, that's not a capital offense.

Two ICE agents tracked down a woman *inside a polling place* yesterday. Why?

They demanded that she take down an Instagram post in which she named Jonathan Ross as the man who shot & killed Renee Good (after the Star Tribune identified Ross). www.syracuse.com/news/2026/06...
Federal agents track down Syracuse woman, demand she remove Instagram post about ICE

If it is him as a "doctor" (I would say "physician"), then why the red robe, the extra open sleeves, the "star glow", etc.?

I already posted a research article about cognitive dissonance this morning . . .

Q: Did you post that picture of yourself depicted as Jesus Christ?

TRUMP: I did post it and I thought it was me as a doctor and had to do Red Cross. Only the fake news could come up with that one.

Others have been shot, others have been killed.

Yes, people are out protesting & trying to help “strangers” because that is what helps our society overall.

It seems like #projection here more than any analysis of the situation.

The damage being done extends beyond vaccines. The anecdotal data we got in comments from a study show that people are not trusting the CDC now.
RFK Jr. is now blocking an updated flu vaccine for NO reason grounded in science.

American vaccine policy has been hijacked by a conspiracy theorist—yet most Republicans are happy to just sit on their hands.

They are allowing FDA policy to be dictated by DELUSION.
FDA won’t review Moderna application for first mRNA-based flu vaccine
The decision, which shocked company officials, comes as the FDA says it will take a stricter approach to federal vaccine approvals.
