So Trump leased our military to Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the UAE?

Rachel Maddow, on the pedophile fΓΌhrer and Netanyahu striking Iran: "Follow the money." πŸ˜³πŸ‘‡

Rachel Maddow puts it very well Trump’s motivation to launch the war in Iran. Trump doesn’t give a rats ass about protesters. Look what he did to protesters in Minnesota. Follow the money and y’all will find the answer.

Kamala Harris has endorsed Jasmine Crockett in Texas Democratic primary for US Senate.

I have to ask... does this help, hurt, or makes no real difference for Jasmine Crockett?

I voted for Harris, but I’m honestly not sure how this will impact the Texas Democratic primary.

Texas' Big Bend braces for border wall in national park, worrying local Republicans and Democrats Locals say the rugged land is enough of a barrier and they're concerned about the impact on the environment and homeowners as the Department of Homeland Security forges ahead.

I want to do my part in raising awareness. Texas's Big Bend is set to receive new border security infrastructure, including >100 mi of border wall cutting through Big Bend National Park. Kristi Noem just waived 28 environmental protection laws and regulations to expedite this construction. 🧡 1/4

Trump has really backed himself into a corner with Anthropic because he is a shitty businessman, and had surrounded himself with incompetent and dumb yes men like Hegseth.

Don’t really have an intelligent take, just want to express that the Anthropic situation makes me deeply uneasy in a way only a few other things from Trump II have.

Every last American needs to ask themselves why Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump are so desperate to force Anthropic's AI to conduct mass surveillance of US citizens and authorize military executions without human intervention or control.

"Just like the Forever Wars, this fiasco is also birthing its own captive constituencies... from contractors supplying it to MAGA-adjacent young (and not so young) men signing up for ICE, which Ganz describes as 'an employment program for the Trumpenproletarian mob."

Note that this is undeniably Trump’s commerce secretary Howard Lutnick on Epstein Island. Also Lutnick testified under oath that he only went to Epstein Island with his wife and his kids. This is a bunch of men.
