Top is less distinct close up. 2nd photo has woman upside down, photo is more distinct, shot encompasses close-up of barrel of WWI machine gun. Woman's right hand is on barrel, her right breast is exposed.  both images are superimposed over patterns of black and blue rectangles, a printer test-page.

Or maybe, just maybe, they have an understanding that this kind of thing happens every couple decades, because that’s how you β€œsecure America’s interests in the region” i.e. imperialism.

Being the president & doing unconstitutional stuff, then having the SCOTUS come out with a decision saying that what you’re doing is unconstitutional, and then *continuing to do it* is pretty dang radical

β€œBoots on the ground” also implies that any territory in the world is ours, because we can occupy it. It just makes me puke.

Don’t say β€œwar,” say β€œmilitary operation.”

Don’t say.”invade and occupy,” say β€œboots on the ground.”

I hate fucking cutesy phrases for heinous things, and everyone ends up using them.
