With a superior military we are blessed that casualties are minimal, and it’s rare to lose an aircrew. But when you do it cuts deep and hurts…. Especially as a former aircrew member. Today we honor the 6 who lost their lives in Iraq. Nickel in the grass brothers and sisters.
Shouldn’t there be a disclaimer on every story/post citing some bold new claim that Trump has just made about something which points out to the reader that every one of them later inevitably turns out to be bullshit?
The way our nation turned its back on those who helped us at great risk to themselves and their families is an unforgivable national shame.
We owed Mohammad Nazeer Paktyawal. Instead, ICE arrested him in front of his children and he died in their custody. We failed him and his family.
“Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?”
"Defensive?" No, he's drunk. Look at how bloated this guy's face is and he isn't even really running the show. Assclown likes to be laughed at.
Feeling powerless? You're not. Here are 8 concrete actions you can take to save democracy — starting today 👇
Hawley bans abortion pill for safety. Look at Viagara. 522 deaths since 1998 w viagara compare to 36 deaths since 2000 with mifepristone. End idiocracy. #proudblue

If the government really is worried about Iranian sleeper cells, then it was probably a mistake to systematically reorient the majority of US counterterror resources toward arresting immigrant grandmothers and five-year-olds in bunny hats
🚨Capitol rioter pardoned by Trump given life sentence for molesting two children
He told one of his victims that he expected to be compensated for being a pardoned January 6 defendant and would be putting the child in his will to inherit any leftover money | US Capitol attack | The Guardian
Trump says the decision to bomb Iran came after advice from Jared Kushner, Steve Witkoff and Pete Hegseth.
Who takes advice about starting a war from 2 real estate developers and a drunk former TV co-host?

NEW, from me: I talked to people who shut down Patriot Front's rally in D.C. last month.
Counter-demonstrators made it impossible for PF to produce propaganda and recruit at the March for Life rally. The clown music set the tone.

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes.
$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst".

A son of sharecroppers, a Freedom Rider, a moral force in Congress, John Lewis taught us that democracy is not a state, it is an act. When we see injustice, we do not look away. We get in good trouble. And we build bridges despite adversity. Happy Heavenly Birthday, Congressman.
What problem is Trump's new global 10% tariff meant to solve?
If it's about leverage, ask: How much leverage do you get from a tariff that disappears in 150 days?
If it's onshoring: Who builds new factories based on tariff that disappear before the factory is built?
It's a tax. That's all it is.
"Instead, Trump just unilaterally imposed taxes on Americans, taxes that will be visible as such, will be visible as such during election season. And he did so primarily as a tantrum against judges ordering him to follow the law."
Right-wing Heritage Foundation’s own data shows fewer than 100 noncitizens voted since 1982 (!!!)

Her behaviour at the hearings was atrocious. Imagine if any previous Democratic Attorney General had ever responded in the same manner? They'd been drawn & quartered then roasted over a fire pit. I firmly believe her day is coming. She is a pitiful excuse for an AG.

"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little."
—FDR, 1937
$4 BILLION — So corrupt.
There is no debating this. Anyone who says otherwise is telling on themselves.
Ossoff: "Among today's false prophets are the election deniers who indulge this president's obsession with overturning the 2020 election. Hear me when I say this -- they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission."
The acting director of ICE told Congress, under oath, that local law enforcement in Colorado leaked raid plans, allowing gang members to escape.
After 9NEWS questioned ICE's claim and its timeline, ICE deleted the claim from its social media platforms.
Incompetent lawyers always blame the judge. That tactic is so stupid that it further illustrates the incompetence. www.politico.com/news/magazin...
Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.
The military should not be run by people who are likely guilty of treason and espionage against our country.
This is all absolutely ridiculous, shame on the entire government for allowing us to be taken over by murderous, pedophiles and criminals.
It's unforgivable.
Rep. Angie Craig: "The attacks on Black and brown people in Minnesota have been egregious. At the end of the day, what they wanted out of Minnesota was for us to riot. I think this will go down in American history as one of the greatest examples of peaceful resistance from an entire community."
@barackobama.bsky.social: "Bad Bunny's halftime show... This is what a community is. People who did not speak Spanish and have never been to Puerto Rico saw that elderly woman serving a drink and the kids dancing with their grandmas... There's room for everybody here. That I think is where we win."
Researchers have found that 6 of 10 abortion restrictions — bans on Medicaid funding for abortion, mandated waiting periods, 2nd-trimester abortion bans, ACA marketplace insurance coverage bans, biased counseling laws, and ultrasound requirements — were linked to higher rates of maternal mortality.
Let's be clear.
If the Constitution only applies to certain groups, you don't actually like the USA.
You are a traitor.
Stop flying that big ass flag like it has anything to do with you.
