if i were running dem party comms, all our people would today be talking about the president having a dance party while our soldiers are being shot at while gas prices go through the roof
Murphy: I have great sympathy for our soldiers and our military leaders they are being given directions by a senile old man who is losing his mind. And so it's no surprise that this war is going horribly

What a world
They're hiding their incompetence behind the valor of our men and women in uniform.
As if to question why we're at war is to question our heroes. No, it's to make sure the mission is worth their sacrifices.
Our troops will always do their job.
Republicans need to do theirs.
Absolutely infuriating.
The Iranian missile that Hegseth downplayed as a "squirter getting through" killed six Americans and left dozens with traumatic brain injuries, burns and shrapnel in their bodies.
Connect the dots
If you need the real news watch CBC or BBC. They correct every Trump lie. Which is pretty much everything he says.
Not really breaking any news here.
Nobody in this Administration can agree on why they started this war or when it will end. The Secretary of State, the Secretary of Defense, and the President are all saying different things. Servicemembers’ lives are on the line, and they deserve better than this.

Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."
Murphy: "Literally in my other ear I'm listening to Ted Cruz on another network explain why this mission is so essential to destroy the nuclear program. I may have to walk over there and tell him the admin is now briefing that getting rid of the nuclear program has nothing to do with this mission."
Chris Murphy: "I Just came from a two hour, closed door classified briefing on the war. It just confirmed to me it's totally incoherent. We are not gonna be able to achieve any of our stated objectives ... this is a disaster of epic proportions, a 10 day debacle"
the mantis shrimp has 16 types of color receptors.
humans have 3.
we see roughly 10 million colors and think that's impressive.
the mantis shrimp is sitting there processing a visual reality so hyperchromatic that scientists genuinely aren't sure what it's like to be one.

The boycott of OpenAI(ChatGPT) has now surpassed 4 million. We’re also seeing many small businesses (and even some mid-sized companies) cancel their subscriptions. One of the most amazing things over the past year has been watching consumers remind big corporations just how much power they have.
A win! Glad they didn’t cave. Senate Democrats blocked a spending bill to reopen the Department of Homeland Security for a third time, insisting they would not approve the measure without new limits on immigration enforcement.

“This data belongs to the American people, who need to know what is being done in their name. Donald Trump, Russell Vought, Doug Burgum, and the rest of this corrupt administration are trying to use your public lands to erase history and undermine science.” Link to data: archive.org/details/nps-...
Glad this was vetoed. We agree this bill injected politics into a function of government that should remain nonpartisan. Governor Katie Hobbs vetoed SB1439, which would have created a special “Turning Point” license plate and directed $17 of the $25 fee to Turning Point USA.

The American organisation Democracy for the Arab World Now (DAWN) has called on Iran to file a declaration granting the International Criminal Court (ICC) jurisdiction over crimes committed on its territory since the war began on 28th February 2026.

Why was this story on the front page of the UK’s Daily Telegraph — but NOT America’s leading newspapers?

Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"
The overdue firing of Kristi Noem will have no bearing on the continued plans for unwanted warehousing of human beings across the country.
The spotlight should focus on these warehouses (de facto concentration camps) during Markwayne Mullin's confirmation hearing.

Again. This matters.
