Talarico: "There's another war in the Middle East. There's a cost of living crisis. There's a secret pedophile ring & no one has been prosecuted. So the people responsible are trying to distract us with the same old culture wars ... what do the American people care more about -- pronouns or prices?"
KC135 is configured for refueling, not jumpers. Refueling typically at 30K feet. Jumping from that altitude requires specialized training, pre-oxygenating for an hour prior to jump, and special jump suits to prevent freezing to death. And no regular jump egress. Parachutes would not have helped 😞
I’m not defending anything about them, but it you can’t cross budget lines. Not spending all your allocated funding in government is usually due to poor management, government shutdowns, and other chaos that starts and stops funding and programs.
It’s Rachel Maddow on YouTube so I’d say so
Because congress authorizes spending, annual government spending is assigned to specific buckets by law. You can’t pull money out one budget and send it to another. So that much is true, but that doesn’t mean they did the right thing.
Show us your guts, Brian. You go through that strait and show us how it’s done. 🙄
It’s unfathomable that Americans can believe Iran will offer an unconditional surrender. Ever. Would Americans be willing to surrender to a generational enemy bombing our homeland that murdered 185 schoolgirls on the first day? They won’t ever surrender.
As soon as I saw multiple headlines touting the “dignified” transfer, I knew it wasn’t.
We’ve basically replaced lewandowski with markwayne.
Markwayne is much dumber than Lewandowski (I know😒), but it remains to be seen which tenure will be more cruel, corrupt, lawless, and incompetent.
A trove of nearly 3,200 disclosure records, which ProPublica made public this week, reveals a web of financial ties between Trump officials and the industries they help regulate.
What does lirièm mean?

This is not the best part of the firing, but it’s in the Top 10.
Many US government buildings also house daycares. I’ll never forget the babies who died in the Oklahoma City bombing 😞
It shouldn’t be paywalled. It’s a gift article. You might have to drop the opening subscription offer to see.
Psychopaths and nihilists
Good, but I heard MarkWayne’s name mentioned as a possible replacement 🤮 Idk if he could actually be worse.
Texas GOP hate Dallas voters. Paxton has their full support on these types of actions when they’re directed at Dallas or Houston. It’s why MAGA loves Paxton.
“…and so, if a woman weighs the same as a duck, she is made of wood and therefore - a witch!”
“Mr. Lewandowski is your ‘special adviser’ Is that right?”
The air quotes 👌
Just a random reminder that over 50 members of Congress collectively own millions of dollars in defense contractor stocks.
They stand to personally profit from wars that enrich these contractors.
Make no mistake, this is legalized corruption.
Watch how they vote this week.
BREAKING: Credible whistleblower discloses that FBI forensic experts were ordered to stand down from processing the scene where Renee Good was killed, because Kash Patel did not want Good referenced as a “victim” in the warrant.
Throughout the Trump admin, American taxpayers are paying the salaries and federal benefits of right-wing social media trolls who spend all day attacking Democrats online on our dime. www.wired.com/story/a-whit...
He means people who don’t make a lot of money. He means poor people. They’re worthless to him.
I remember when Twitter was a great place to follow credible accounts and breaking news. What a hellhole it is now. On purpose.
It seems like nonsense, but here’s the code: anytime anyone in this administration uses the words “American people, we, us, America,” they LITERALLY mean themselves. Their families, friends, and inner circle of billionaire financiers.
They're quite literally pillaging the government.
Jade Helm is cool now I guess
“I ain’t reading all of that. But I’m happy for you, or sorry that happened.”
