β€˜A very dangerous person’: alarm as Pete Hegseth revels in carnage of Iran war Critics say brash, bombastic Fox News host out of his depth to guide US military through murky new Middle East conflict

β€œI wish I could say how cavalier, obtuse and hopeless Secretary Hegseth is at leading the Pentagon. I can’t even muster the words to describe his self-adulation, matched only in scope by his apparent moral depravity.”

The only Dems β€œin a bind” about funding this war are ones beholden to AIPAC like Moskowitz β€” why is @cnn.com centering them in their chyron?

Cutting offπŸ’°for a bad war isn’t abandoning the troops, it’s supporting them. Stop using missile makers’ lines

Dems overwhelmingly oppose this

If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected β€” young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! β€” and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.

AI fakes spread disinformation. Is the distrust they create even worse? Manipulated images undermine our shared realityβ€”and the democracy built upon it.

Checking in from Lebanon with WCK's Ramy.
Evacuation orders are forcing people in central Beirut to sleep on the streets. Over the weekend, we distributed food alongside social workers delivering basic essentials to families in need.
The situation is moving fast. So are we. #ChefsForMidEast

Albuquerque’s Mayor Said Arrests Were β€œNot the Solution” to Homelessness. Yet Jail Bookings Have Skyrocketed. Under Tim Keller’s leadership, the city has increasingly criminalized conduct associated with homelessness, causing a growing number of people on the streets to be arrested and jailed.

About half the jail population in Albuquerque is homeless. The county spends about $169 per night to jail inmates without significant medical or mental health needs. Housing individuals in the city’s year-round emergency shelter costs $44 a night.

Obama calls on Virginians to vote for redistricting in special election β€œFree and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy, but right now they are under threat,” Obama said.

Early voting in Virginia has kicked into full gear as voters weigh a new map that could deliver four blue seats in Congress β€” and one former president is urging voters to say yes.

β€œVirginians can respond by making sure your voting power is not diminished by what Republicans are doing,” Obama said.

Me a year ago: "Musk may be a happy hatchet man thinking he is reshaping the government. But for Trump he is a useful tool to help allow Trump to restaff it."

WaPo today: "A year after Elon Musk and his DOGE allies purged 100k's of federal employees, the Trump administration is ramping up hiring."
