I debated 20 far-far-far-right conservatives on Jubilee's 'Surrounded.' Below are some brief highlights of them unable to answer my basic questions or rebut the simplest of points. Not sure whether to laugh or cry. Here's the full eye-opening 'debate': youtube.com/watch?v=2S-WJN…

After a weekend of distracting from Epstein, deflecting from Epstein, and other Epsteinian-induced behavior, Trump seemingly spent the night NOT sleeping. He was posting, and what's most interesting, is WHAT he was posting. As I've often repeated, nobody feels fear more…

So.... Trump removes the Murdochs and ⁦@emmatuckerWSJ⁩ from the White House press room. The internal pressure on Fox News to back the Journal and abandon Trump is hidden but immense. cnn.com/2025/07/21/med…

Emil Bove allegedly told DOJ officials to say “f*ck you” to the courts. And new data from @washingtonpost confirms DOJ leadership’s unprecedented defiance of court orders.

Every gut-wrenching line by @ruwaidaamer8 captures the pervasive, physically excruciating horror of 2 million people left to the whims of Israeli malice and indifference. This shouldn’t be happening. Bread and water aren’t bargaining chips. Govts have no excuse for passivity.

Don’t normalize this. Don’t accept this. Don’t let it become routine. Don’t let it fade from headlines. Don’t let it pass without consequence. Don’t let it happen again tomorrow. Don’t grow numb to it. Don’t stand with those who justify it. Don’t stop demanding its end.

We’re way past the point where strongly worded statements are meaningful. Starving people can’t eat words.

U.K. and 27 other nations condemn Israel over “inhumane killing” of Gaza civilians seeking aid - BBC News apple.news/A6tVbNPUuRt2qW…

Extraordinary. AFP says its journalists are in imminent risk of being starved to death by Israel. This has never happened since the agency was founded. Never has any of its journalists been starved to death

If you’re in the West, and a defender of Israel, and spent the past 21 months justifying the worst war crimes of our lifetime on the grounds of ‘but the hostages!’, sorry, you got played.

🚨Israel minister calls for "expanding" the Gaza genocide even if it means all Israeli captives are "killed as a result"! In case any genocide apologists gaslight you into thinking this was ever about the khostages!

Here is my considered position on having Parkinson’s and accepting that four years in, people are now able to spot it.

A top to bottom look at how Republicans -- and yes voters-- failed the flood victims in Texas, many of whom could not vote. My latest deep dive for @BitchuationPod is OUT NOW.

Why cant we put the @RoKhanna @RepThomasMassie bill for a vote this week @SpeakerJohnson @JDVance ??

Google is free. If you’re saying I voted for military funding, you are lying. Receipts attached. Drag me for my positions all you want, but lying about them doesn’t make you part of the “left.” If you believe neo-nazis are welcome and operating in good faith, you can have them!

Where does Jill Stein go for three years between Presidential elections? Where does she live? Does she have a job?

If a prominent Muslim figure wrote the exact same thing but with Jewish names, it would be career ending. Anti-Muslim bigotry is rewarded in the West.
