BREAKING: Iran announces it has now lifted its self-imposed 2,000 kilometre range limit on ballistic missiles, bringing targets in Europe and remote US military bases in reach. "This restriction has been lifted for us," IRGC spokesman Mohebbi said, adding that "Today, any point from which we feel a serious threat to the country can be our target." It follows an order from Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, who told commanders to prepare an "immediate and geographically unrestricted response to any threat" and to demonstrate the capability in practice rather than make statements. Iran's Khorramshahr missile is already assessed to reach around 3,000 km, and in March 2026 Iran launched two of them toward Diego Garcia around 4,000 km away, suggesting an even greater reach.

I know Woke 3.0 is here because I don’t feel any guilt about posting annoying Woke 1.0 takes.

Okay so this feels racist? Why the gang photo?

"Lesser of two evils" is quickly becoming just "Hotter/younger of two evils."

Y’all realize this means full-on war with Iran is imminent… right? This was always going to happen, regardless of midterm results.

Shumer: What I do as the leader is I’m the chief pimp for Israel. I am not the best baby killer. I highlight that person. I am not the greatest pedophile enabler. I highlight that person.
Schumer: What I do as the leader is I'm the orchestra leader. I am not the best bassoonist. I highlight that person. I am not the great virtuoso singer. I highlight that person.

“First black…” she’s priming us for Jeffries, that’s all this post is. Nobody cares about the first Black Speaker of The House of Israel.
AOC: A note for Gen Z. If you want to understand millennial cringe, what you all call millennial cringe, this earnestness, imagine all the seats we flipped last night. That feeling, plus, on top of it, electing the first Black president ever. And on top of that, you did it the first time you ever voted. That hits generationally. You’ve been chasing that feeling ever since. And because you did it the first time you ever voted, you’re like, ‘Yeah, we can change the world. Why not? We did it the first time. Let’s just do it again.’

When will Twitter users realize that “right-wing bots” don’t serve to reinforce bigoted ideas but instead trick Democrats into thinking Conservatives are all irredeemable? For example, @hasanthehun preaches rehabilitation while villainizing Republicans—how can both happen at once?

In other words, Trump is about to go through something so bad that even Rubio has to draw the line…
BREAKING: Secretary of State Marco Rubio now expected to resign and launch a presidential bid, as he "needs to distance himself from the Iran war and pin that one on Trump," per The Independent. He will "run for the hills in the aftermath of the midterms humiliation," one Rubio ally said. "Rubio will be gone after the midterms. There will be about four or five of them running for the hills," the Rubio ally adds. A Republican source close to Rubio said "The country has completely turned against Trump. People cannot even say where Iran is on a map and do not get this war. The cost of gas has really pissed people off."

Giving DSA left some real HOPIUM amongst all the libbmaxxing! This is what I was hoping for, Sentator @AbdulElSayed 🙌
MSNOW: What is your message now to Jewish voters nationally and what you will do to protect them? Abdul El-Sayed: I’m committed to Jewish safety, and we are united against discrimination. The U.S. spends billions to carry out genocide and apartheid against Palestinians. The genocide in Gaza with our complicity is continuing right now. Nobody wants to talk about that.

What I can read: - NYPD Central Park - Who is our DHS Commisioner - Put Baba’s party in calendar - Should stagger down the 2.5% and the cap? Whether or not it’s 600K or 255K. This is over years. - Will any school be —ing — —. - When will the backlash ov— … cuts? - Can we also have a -ag— … analysis? - Horses have a 5 week/yr… The “backlash” one is interesting.

Lmao you’re not even winning over the libs @hasanthehun , when will you wake up?
Keep track of this btw. Dems are beating Republicans everywhere and Hasan Piker is focused on unseating Democrats. Wake up. He’s not on our team.

🤩 SPOT THE DIFFERENCE 🤩 1. "As mayor, New York City would arrest Benjamin Netanyahu" - @ZohranKMamdani | → Bibi speaks at the UN, the NYPD gives JVP a photo shoot, and the Mayor plants an olive tree. 2. "We're gonna put your ass in jail everyone get more woke right now!" - @hasanthehun | → TBD, but most adults would find this a silly thing to claim. He's a 35-year-old streamer with no real power. His movement wants to abolish prisons, but called shock collars "incredibly effective."
MENACING MESSAGE: Progressive streamer Hasan Piker threatened jail time for conservatives as Democrats swept the midterms in a historic landslide Tuesday night. Piker, closely tied to Michigan Senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed, declared "WOKE IS SO BACK" as Democrats flipped both chambers of Congress. Full story here foxnews.com/politics/far-lef…

Woke 3.0 is when throuples and foursomes in LA can get married, but Billionaires can’t be taxed more.

Hasan's analytical pet and go-to stream partner, Vincent “Top Gay” Vertuccio, is a 23-year-old poli-sci grad student (still enrolled). He has already set up his consulting firm, Egret Strategies LLC. His father is a Nike director, and his mother is a consultant. He grew up in an affluent Long Island neighborhood. This is the only person @hasanthehun ever lets “punch” him from the left.

So, Idk why nobody gets this but: - @hasanthehun serves to pull the Left to the Right —> nets more conservative voters. - @Asmongold serves to pull the Right to the Left —> nets more liberal voters. Should we send Hasan or Asmongold to prison? Tough call…

The biggest takeaway from last night is that Trump didn’t “win” in 2024 — Kamala LOST.
