Kash Patel baselessly fired an elite team of agents specializing in foreign threats from the Middle East just days before Donald Trump launched an illegal military campaign in Iran. trib.al/yCxh1bk

Kash Patel’s latest firings ousted agents with expertise in Iran The FBI director gutted a specialized, global espionage unit of counterintelligence agents, just days before Operation Epic Fury.

Trump isn’t acting like a president at war with foreign adversaries.

He’s acting like a man at war with his own counterintelligence professionals, the people who can expose his secrets and hold him to account.

I'm sorry, if you're going to make a big show about how you've got a Department of WAR helmed by a Secretary of WAR and staffed by WARfighters, it's totally inane to then claim that your massive bombing of a foreign country constitutes something other than a war.

this is a world-historical disgrace, and it just gets more stunningly catastrophic every day

it says a lot about us, none of it good, that we chose a leader with not a single redeeming quality: stupid? yup. corrupt? absolutely. dishonest? to his core. violent? maybe the most violent ever. any ability to empathize with people? none. baseline level of regard for human life? not even a skosh.

Remember this?

“If you take out Saddam, I guarantee you it will have enormously positive impact in the region"

A million people died, an entire society was destroyed in a War based on a complete lie.

Food Stamp Fraud, Debunked
YouTube video by Robert Reich Food Stamp Fraud, Debunked

Trump is launching us into what could be another costly and deadly forever war.

Meanwhile, he and Republicans are making devastating cuts to food assistance programs that help millions of people.

Remember: It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

The speculating rooks at their nests cawed
And saw from the elm-tops, delicate as flower of grass
What we below could not see, Winter pass.' (words Edward Thomas/Art Francesco Balsamo)

“l've never felt this intensely confused.

I always imagined I'd be filled with joy when khamenei finally dies. I don't. Not joy, nor sorrow, just anger and horror!
