  1. #MafiaDon called #PopeLeo "weak on crime".

    I'm reminded of a parody campaign ad during the 2004 Election of #Dubya calling #Jesus "weak on crime" (among other things.) 🤔

  2. Sec. #Kegbreath on #Iran's nuclear capabilities:

    "We know exactly what they have".

    I heard this 23 years ago when the #Dubya Administration was adamant #Iraq had #WMDs.

    They claimed to know FOR A FACT that Iraq had "stockpiles of #Yellowcake uranium" and was enriching it using centrifuges (that didn't exist.)

    No. They have been *pining* for The #Rapture for over 100 years.

    They thought #Evangelical #Dubya would finally give them what they want but he failed.

    Now, they finally have their man.

  8. @jaykuo
    In 2003, we were protesting in the streets against a march towards attacking #Iraq in what was clearly a #WarForOil.

    The #Dubya Administration denied it, but the rest of the world knew better.

    TODAY, #OrangeJuliusCaesar quite openly admits he is using the U.S. military (and your loved ones) to die in wars for #oil (even while he tells everyone "We have plenty of oil" and don't need the #StraitOfHormuz.)

    While the #Dubya Admin never revealed who "Curveball" was, we did eventually figure out it was exiled Iraqi dissident Ahmed Chalibi... who was later revealed/branded "an Iranian spy" when they "discovered" there were no WMD's.

    Bush's one & only exit strategy for Iraq was to replace Saddam with Chalibi. But when they discovered they had been duped, that left them with no way out.
    #DisasterPresidency #TooStupidToBePresident

  10. #Republicans are on an Antisemitic tear lately, unashamed of cheering the deaths of Muslim's.

    And when asked about it, Speaker Mike Johnson pointed to efforts [by #Democrats] to impose "#ShariaLaw in the United States." 🙄 🤦‍♂️

    #JFC

    TO BE CLEAR, *NO* DEMOCRAT has called for instating "Sharia Law" in any way, shape or form in the United States.

    Simply claiming we have is itself a form of spreading anti-Muslim hatred.

    It's depressing to think kindly of #Dubya for visiting a mosque after 9/11.

  11. I'M RIGHT AT THAT AGE where I was a grown adult when #Dubya invaded #Iraq under false pretenses claiming a #PreemptiveStrike was necessary b/c Saddam was amassing #WeaponsOfMassDestruction (lie) with a SecDef saying the war might only last 6days/weeks/months (only to go on for 9 years)…

    …and now old enough to see/recognize history repeating itself with another failed idiot #Potus lying us into yet another MidEast war/not-a-war, that simply can't get its story straight.🤦‍♂️

    Thanks, but I don't think that's the incident I remember.

    A search online suggests it was a release of the indictment of #Felon47's first campaign manager #PaulManafort.

    But I don't think that was it either.

    But I do agree it was probably something concerning #Dubya & #Iraq (probably connected to #AbuGhraib.)

  13. @asiny
    In order to impress upon people just how #evil #SaddamHussein was in making their case for #war, the #Dubya Administration would tell us how #Saddam & his amoral brat sons (Uday & Kusay) lived in a palace surrounded by exorbitant wealth while the #Iraqi people starved ("They'll welcome us with flowers!")

    When does #Iraq return the favor? 🙏

  14. Since when has it become the obligation of Democrats to save Republicans from themselves? 🤬

    #Welker on #MeetTheRepublicans yesterday asked Cory Booker if he's okay with #DEMOCRATS "shutting down the gov't" if there isn't a budget deal by the end of the month.

    Booker had to point out the obvious:

    "#Republicans control the WH & the Congress. If there's a #shutdown, it's on THEM."

    They did this during the #Dubya Administration as well. "If Republicans #Shutdown the gov't, blame #Democrats." 🤦‍♂️

  15. I started the following hashtag during Mango's first term:

    #TheyreTryingToKillEverybody

    #Covid, #Gaza, #Ukraine, disbanding #FEMA, ignoring #ClimateChange... it's the only explanation I've come up with that explains away every disastrous decision. #PopulationControl

    I wrote much of the text for the following graphic nearly 20 years ago during the #Dubya Administration. #GOP #DeathCult #Cult #TotsAndPears

  16. JV Vance on #MeetTheRepublicans this morning said: "The difference between this Administration and Administrations over the past 25 years (which would include T****'s own first term, Dumbass) is that we had very dumb presidents, and now we have a president who knows how to actually accomplish America's security objectives." #SundayShowdown

    I remind everyone that during that "25 years" ONLY #Obama & #Biden ended the wars started by #Dubya. T**** just STARTED a NEW war. #MissionAccomplishedPart2

  17. #SundayShowdown

    #Bessent said the #pandemic taught us a lesson about destruction of the #SuplyChain (and why we must encourage companies to move *here*.)

    That was the DOMESTIC supply chain.

    Now they are about to destroy our #IMPORT supply chain. #Round2

    I'm reminded of #Dubya invading #Iraq after ignoring the threat that led to 9/11.

    They learn the wrong lesson from their F-ups, and respond with an EVEN BIGGER F-up that is even MORE disastrous. 🤦‍♂️ #DisasterPresidency #TooStupidForPolitics

  18. @democratsabroad
    During the #Dubya Administration, #GOP strategist #GroverNorquist famously said:

    "All we need is a candidate with enough functioning digits to hold a pen."

    #Republicans don't GAF about the #MentalState of their candidates. They don't care if they are amoral #Hitler-quoting #Reprobates and #AdjudicatedRapists who handle #ClassifiedDocs with all the care of an Irish Setter.

    BUT THEY SURE LIKE MAKING #DEMOCRATS FREAK OUT so they self-sabotage themselves into a loss. 🤬

    Can we PLEASE stop with the "Zionist" BS that is stoking #antisemetic violence against Jews (not just abroad but here in the U.S.)?

    This is ALL on (#NeoCon) #Netanyahu. Most of Israeli citizens DO NOT support him and have called for his resignation.

    Bibi helped push #Dubya into invading #Iraq, tried & failed to get #Obama to attack #Iran (even accepted an invite from the #GOP to address #Congress w/o ever meeting w/Obama), and has now defied #Biden's warning not to attack #Rafah.
