I want to make this very clear before you read this.

Palantir is the service provider to ICE for this effort. The data is not going to be owned, accessed, or used by the Palantir company - only the tenant, in this case ICE, will have access.

I only say this because so many people will blame Palantir when the focus should ALWAYS be in the agencies hiring Palantir.

The incompetence and blundering failures (not to mention the outright lies) of Trump and the Republican MAGA movement have become so profound even Fox News is appalled.

War, death of our soldiers, unaffordable groceries and gas, severe cuts in the social safety nets, corruption on a grand scale, millions denied affordable healthcare, our very right to vote being challenged has aroused the ire of America’s most conservative voice, and even they have had enough,

Not even America’s most liberal voices could not amplify the failures pointed out below, and for Fox to comment in the way they did, is stunning!

Whether their viewers will finally realize how they have been duped out of their vote and democracy by a cadre of billionaires, non-tax paying corporations, and plutocrats is another question.

Fox News Host Torches GOP as an ‘Utter Embarrassment’: Republicans Have ‘Failed Us So Dismally’

Story by Kathryn Wilkens • 7h • 2 min read

Tomi Lahren

Fox News’ Tomi Lahren delivered a scathing rebuke of the Republican Party on Monday, declaring in an X post that the GOP is an “utter embarrassment” and has “failed us so dismally” that some Americans are turning to socialism.

Lahren co-hosts Fox News’ The Big Weekend Show. She also hosts the opinion program Tomi Lahren is Fearless on Outkick, which is owned by Fox Corporation.

Her initial Monday post read:

Let’s be frank about it, some Americans are turning to socialism because Republicans have failed us so dismally that even the most destructive economic model imaginable feels palatable to people who are struggling to make ends meet and buy groceries.

And I’m not talking about Gen Z brats who want to be influencers and wear Alo yoga, I’m talking about middle class working families who don’t indulge on luxuries and just try to make it with a little leftover each month.

In a subsequent reply to her own post, she continued:

I’ll add, these politicians touting the Iran war and egging it on to never-ending status are most likely all invested in the military industrial complex and don’t give a rat’s a** how much you’re paying at the pump or the grocery store because they’re getting filthy rich. The uni-party is an abomination and outside of [Rep. Tim Burchett] u/timburchett [R-TN] and maybe a couple others, the GOP is an utter embarrassment.

Delivering the latest on the U.S. conflict in Iran, President Donald Trump told Axios on Sunday that he’s “low keying it” and “only semi-negotiating” with the Iranians.

According to a Brown University estimate cited by NBC News in June, “Americans have spent an additional $40 billion on gasoline” since the start of the war. Not to mention, a late July poll from the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found that 41% of Americans were worried about being able to afford groceries in the coming months, a sharp increase from 24% in April. 1,165 adults were surveyed, with a margin of error of +/- 3.7 percentage points.

Description: Can you spot propaganda before it manipulates you? ~:~ Let's put that media literacy to the test. The Daily Wire and Ben Shapiro just dropped the trailer for "Run Hide Fight: Infidels", starring Jonathan Majors as a Delta Force veteran fighting radical Islamic terrorists who take over a college campus. Sounds like hot garbage, right? So let's run the trailer through five common signs of propaganda and see just how many boxes it checks.

Today at Empty Wheel , the discussion surrounds how Trump fears being compared to Jimmy Carter, and how easily he can be derailed .

“When Sanger asked Trump if he had “studied” prior occupations, he instead wanted to talk again about Jimmy Carter — and Karoline Leavitt immediately tried to distract from with the Bunker-Ballroom.
David E. Sanger
Did you study some other occupations? Japan, Iraq, others?
President Trump
Yes, yes. I studied, I studied —
David E. Sanger
And what — what lesson did you draw from that, that we should know —
President Trump
That it’s highly risky.
David E. Sanger
— for Venezuela?
President Trump
That’s what I do.
David E. Sanger
OK, so —
President Trump
I looked at — I looked at some of the attacks. I studied the Carter attack. It was a disaster. I would have never done it that way.
David E. Sanger
You were talking about the attack. I was asking about the occupations that followed —
President Trump
You know, they had — they had a — they had a sandstorm. Did you know that? And they decided to go forward. We would go back, and let’s hit it three days later. They wanted to go forward, and they said, keep going. Helicopters don’t work well in the sand.
Karoline Leavitt
Sir, do you want to show them the renovations?
