I believe this may be the most expensive defense equipment loss of the war (not including Iran) so far.

We need to pass a House rule or law that requires them to work a certain number of days to get paid. Since Mike Johnson took over these people hardly ever work. When they finally come back after weeks off they work 2 days and he sends them home for 2 more weeks. It’s ridiculous.

For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were.

These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War.
Capt. Cody A. Khork, 35
Sgt. 1st Class Noah L. Tietjens, 42
Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39

C.D.C.’s New Acting Director Draws Unexpected Praise From Agency Staff

Good morning.

Let’s fix this headline...

Grifter scientist who spent years undermining mainstream COVID policy now discovers MMR is 97% effective, urges public to do what CDC has recommended since 1971.

Noem asked to retract comments calling Renee Good and Alex Pretti domestic terrorists Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., pushed Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to retract her previous statements labeling Renee Good and Alex Pretti as domestic terrorists. Noem said she was ...

Americans watched as federal agents killed two Minnesotans.

Now their families have to watch Kristi Noem continue to lie about it.

Though @blumenthal.senate.gov is doing a very good job of reviewing the cases already presented during his shadow hearings. He is going through all three cases.

She claims she has no fucking clue about Marimar Martinez' case.

To say that this is infuriating is to say too little

Coming as army leadership preaches transitioning to a new type of war where ranges mean nothing and there is no safe β€œrear area” and then to ignore that in this operation is sheer irresponsibility. Those poor families

Trump really is a drug addict. I know MSM avoided topic of his personal habits for decades but you now have a Commander-in-Chief quite clearly under the influence and in over his head. More lives will be lost. β€˜He doesn’t even drink’ was his own myth, and btw β€˜dry goods’ count.

Iran is using a $7.8 billion crypto shadow economy to bypass global sanctions The government relies on this crypto infrastructure for international trade, while ordinary Iranians use it as a financial lifeline during protests and economic crises.

Iran crypto mining πŸ₯΄ more difficult due to airstrikes …

When money is tight, those in need are first to to face cuts with no other help.

Why?

Why do we punish those in need for the choices of those with millions/billions?

Why can't we do an honest trickle down where the rich are taxed more than they are now and apply that money to social safety nets?

This screenshot is making the rounds, and since I do not have the article, I’d like to ask just one question:

It seems impossible that the US military could have outdated maps.
They have drones that can read license plates at 10,000 feet.

Since I’m former military intelligence who wrote most of the reports my command throughout Korea read I pride myself on being able to sift through the bullshit my coworkers would send to me so it’s easy to know if there’s credible intel & the Trump regime hasn’t put forth a single solitary piece.
