Aside from the predictable reality that the US will need those "hand-wringing traditional allies" for what's unfolding, the US Secretary of Defense publicly stating that rules of engagement are stupid endangers every service member of the armed forces and every civilian in the path of aggression.

I'm worried, too. A small number of sick men are making this world unnecessarily dangerous for hundreds of millions of people. Why the majority of humans allow this to happen is beyond me. All of us would be happier and more secure if they were dethroned from power.

Yep. He was captured and ousted three years prior. Iraq was more prepared for a regime change. I don't see how this goes well. Starting with bombing an elementary school and killing over 100 kids makes it worse.

A lot of adults are clearly going through some things. I wish folks would consider that the uptick in childhood anxiety may stem from a lack of confidence in the present and future that their elders are prescribing for a 'great' country.

I think if I'd gotten away with attempting a coup, suffered no consequences for it, then won an election four years later, got away with executing citizens in the streets and foreigners in boats, and successfully abducted a head of state, I too might think I could just bomb my way to regime change

I am beyond done with this nonsense. We are the living version of the rag mag headlines you read in the grocery store checkout lane.

free note to everyone: you can just say we shouldn’t be bombing Iran rather than pretending this would be fine if Trump explained himself better

Trump said he could end the Ukraine war in 24 hours. He had no plan.

Trump said he could deliver better and cheaper healthcare. He had no plan.

Trump said he he would rebuild US infrastructure. He had no plan.

Trump has no plan for Iran. Just blow shit up, kill some people, and see what happens.

If powerful global elites were raping, torturing, and killing kids for pleasure without any concern for consequences, it sheds light on the indifference to broader harm they created or continue to create. Americans, sadly, are numb to war. We are seeing signs many may draw the line with child rape.

Is the team on Spring Break, too? 😬 I'm sure they'll turn it around in the 2nd period. πŸ’š

He is, but he's losing to Dugan and Benson. I agree about hammering with questions.

We have an epidemic of vile behavior. I don't trust anyone who isn't furious and demanding accountability.

I just had a flashback to my dad's standing order at the Big Boy restaurant he'd take us to during our scheduled visits...liver and onions. I was grateful that we lived with our mom.

This tracks. I'm sure my family thinks we have a self-cleaning microwave.

It's insane that he has any influence over our futures. Was there a followup question pointing out said humans will still eat food and consume energy alongside his energy-consuming replacement for our brains?

I feel like SCOTUS Justices should be sued. I agree with their ruling. This is going to cause chaos for the US Treasury, however. The main reason it happened is because the court gave this president numerous reasons to believe he could act on his whims without following the Constitution.

Um, is everyone aware of what's happening in Cuba as the result of a US oil embargo? I'm sick reading what's happening.

When I hear people talk about guilt and shame, it's usually in reference to historical occurrences beyond their control that they feel we've moved beyond. Those same people are silent as horrors from the past are repeating with modern advancements. You'd think they'd be vocal adversaries to harm. πŸ™ƒ

To put this in perspective, the federal government spends *a combined* $33 billion each year on Title I (for low income families) and IDEA (for special needs students).

It’s so funny to think about the fact that there’s people out there deferring every life decision to this

We are experiencing an epidemic of sexual violence and exploitation being committed by vile people who go out of their way to paint immigrants and the LGBTQ+ community as predators.
