Whisky Pete can’t keep his story straight.
this is beyond parody, folks. a complete mockery of the DOJ.
More rumors are going around Netanyahu is preparing to use nukes against Iran to stop the war. This would be a war crime and a stain the the American people that will never wash off.
Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.
Six years ago, police burst into Breonna Taylor’s home in the middle of the night and took a life that should still be here today.
Justice delayed, accountability denied, and her name still carries the weight of a system that failed her.
We remember Breonna Taylor. #SayHerName
The fact that Hegseth feels the need to attack the press after every question shows how deeply insecure and unhinged he is. His TV studio with soft lighting, his makeup, hype videos, barring photographers from briefings - his sole obsession is how he is portrayed to the public.
The SAVE America Act is a voter suppression scam. It would take away the rights of working people to make their voices heard at the ballot box.
The Senate must reject this bill.
Attorney General Bondi thinks she can play hide-and-go-seek with the Epstein Files, but the law is clear and mandatory.
She must release the Files in their entirety so we can end this massive coverup and elite protection for predators.
I'd like to live in a country where kindness is a political virtue and politicians talk about and center people at a disadvantage and who can't stand up for themselves
I don't want a politics thats all about beating up our enemies
Oh, honey . . . just because you played dress-up at a fake "military academy" that your parents sent you to because you were such an unmanageable, obnoxious teenager doesn't mean you were in the miliary. You had that duty, but lied to get out of it.
✋ Former USG war crimes lawyer here.
Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning:
Denial of quarter—even the declaration of no quarter—is a war crime.
And recognized as such by the US Government.
From DoD's Manual for Military Commissions.
Talarico: "As a former educator, as someone who fought for students & kids in the halls of the Texas Capitol, it makes me sick to my stomach to see our foreign policy take the lives of innocent children in Iran & in the Middle East. It has to end. We need a foreign policy that reflects our values."
“The clear winner of this war is Putin”
Must be a coincidence 🙃
Us too.
Search-and-rescue crews were “flying blind” trying to rescue survivors from deadly tornadoes that hit the Midwest last week.
Why? Because Kristi Noem hadn't approved FEMA’s $200,000 contract with a tornado-tracking tool.
But she had time to spend $220 million on anti-immigrant ads. Priorities.
The scariest words in horror used to be “He’s behind you.” Now it’s “He’s president again.”
The President of the United States casually talking about destroying a country “in an hour” should chill every democracy on Earth.
This is exactly why leadership requires restraint, diplomacy, and respect for human life.👇
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
this means it is not open for transit
WHY did I have to keep going down this path? Nate Cavanaugh was part of DOGE outing Mohammed Halimi, who was exiled from Afghanistan.
DOGE accused Halimi of sending money to the Taliban through his work at the Institute for Peace.
The Taliban then kidnapped Halimi’s family.
the country is at war and the president is leaving DC this afternoon for a weekend at his private club in Florida that he'll spend with his paying customers
Pete Hegseth is still denying photographers into the Pentagon press briefing.
You guys know what to do.
i don’t know how this is supposed to work in terms of intelligence but whatever these guys do is taking stuff that is not theirs to take and then sell it for the highest possible price
electricity water clean air knowledge
you name it
they should be treated like the common thieves they are
"He is a horrible human being." .. (ex colleague Olivia Troye) .. (cartoon Rob Rogers)
Seems we already knew this during Trump's first term.
Medicare for All - "That's socialism!"
Social Security - "That's socialism!"
Debt free education - "That's socialism!"
Universal childcare - "That's socialism!"
$1 billion per day on a war in the Middle East that no one wants, while millions of people at home struggle.
"That's just how it is."
It’s almost like Putin and Netanyahu control our foreign policy.
HOLY SHIT.
A dark money group, hidden behind a bunch of shell companies, is paying influencers thousands of dollars PER POST to attack @katmabu.bsky.social on social media a month before her election.
Thank you to the people who declined the money and went forward with this. So who's behind this?
Pete Hegseth perpetually sounds like an angry teenager hopped up on Red Bull, Adderall and 18 straight hours on Call of Duty.
They can't control what's happening now, so they're trying to control what gets said about it.
