Over 2,000 Marines are being ordered to the Middle East: What Could Go Wrong?
Trump and his band of war-mongering cosplay Crusaders are now sending thousands of troops to the Middle East, escalating chances of a potential ground war. Everything will get worse.

"I'm willing to take a not guilty. I'm willing to take a no true bill."
What she means is she's willing to bring legally deficient cases that harass innocent defendants, waste her line prosecutors' time, and makes her office look like jerkoffs in front of judges and juries.
Hegseth this morning, now this rant from Jeanine. These people come unglued when you point out their obvious incompetence and demonstrable failures. bsky.app/profile/acyn...
1. This hate comes from Trump.
2. It’s backed by MAGA leadership. It is further enabled by general silence from Corporate Dems
3. Corporate Dems’ silence enables it.
4. It dehumanizes Muslims as the U.S. bombs 7 Muslim-majority nations.

The Pentagon's latest report confirms it was a U.S. strike that hit a girls’ school in Iran, killing at least 168 children and 14 teachers. War abroad, rising gas prices at home, and new DOGE depositions are raising serious questions.
Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.
"Boots on the ground" is a more benign way of saying "about to get killed to distract from Donald Trump raping little girls."

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.
Cosplay crusaders. Weak, fragile AF teacups.

Hegseth said there would be no stupid rules of engagement for Trump's war against Iran.
So they blew up a school full of children and have shown no remorse. How Christian.
Imagine if we relied on accurate intelligence. A lot of girls would still be alive.
Earlier this week, I wrote about the rise of Islamic terrorism in the US from radicalized men and Iran state sponsors. The Trump Admin, oddly, hasn’t acknowledged this. My explanation why for @theatlantic.com

U.S. leaders were told: "declare victory and go home" in Vietnam as early as 1966, but fought for 7 more years and thousands of pointless deaths
The Trump regime has lost an even more senseless war in Iran in just 2 weeks. The time for leaving is now

I get the safety concerns expressed by the utility industry here, but I also think they aren't the primary reason utilities are lobbying against more affordable and accessible solar panels.
Pennsylvania added over 76,000 jobs in 2025 — that’s the THIRD highest in the nation.
In a year when nearly one third of states across the country lost jobs, Pennsylvania GAINED JOBS — a direct result of our work to cut red tape, streamline permitting, and invest in economic development.
What a friggin disaster.

There are few things more dangerous than a political movement convinced that God needs help finishing His work. But that is exactly the territory we are entering now. Going Deeper:

Sen. Slotkin: “There's press reports that the Russians are helping target US ships and aircraft…If Russia is helping kill U.S. forces, we have crossed a Rubicon…We have to take decisive action on that, and instead, we're giving them breaks on oil.”
They either didn't know Iran would shut down the Strait of Hormuz or they knew and didn't have a plan.
Either way - just totally clear they don't give a damn about what this war means for hardworking Americans.
During these days of pain and fury, having an outlet is crucially important. For some of us, it's creative work.
I thought this might be a good time to share some things that I've figured out over the last– oh, thirty-five years of doing this:
Immediately disqualifying for the job for which he has been nominated. The 4th Amendment specifies it’s “the right of the people,” not of citizens.
We cannot allow someone who doesn’t understand the 4th Amendment to be the head of DHS.
I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.
I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.
1/ Here's what I can share:
"It is so much worse than you thought."
The Administration's classified briefings on Iran are infuriating Democrats in Congress, with some describing the strategy they are hearing as "incoherent" and "no plan" at all

We offered to fund TSA. No conditions. Republicans refused.
They want the hostage, to extract more ICE money with. No ICE reforms
“'The administration thoughtlessly terminated people with crisis experience, and now they’re left without depth in the bench in the middle of a wide scale and broadening crisis,' said a former official with more than a decade experience in evacuation operations..."

Inspiring confidence here, Donnie boy
This is not something we can reform. It has to be abolished and everyone involved needs to be held accountable.
