Pentagon officials admit they have no idea who exactly is on those boats they're blowing up, and that that's OK.

It looks cool, right? Everyone should be rightfully terrified of the big bad United States, and just stay out of the ocean.

Trump Is Very Confused About Nuclear Weapons The president says he wants to resume nuclear testing but doesn’t seem to know why.

The president wants to resume nuclear testing. This is a really bad idea - and he can't even get his facts right about why he wants to do it:

Fox News did this during the Wisconsin Capitol protests in 2011. They showed violent protestors with palm trees in the background, claiming it was Wisconsin. In February. When our government and media collaborate to lie to people, fighting disinformation has to be a central effort of anti-fascism.

Look, I’ve been incredibly outspoken against the very real problems the gerontocratic Dem power structure has made for itself, including its submission to corporate interests, but if you keep a fucking Nazi tattoo on your fucking body for LONGER THAN A LITERAL DECADE that’s a *you* problem.

No, man, Republicans are in charge of the government.

Do you think Democrats are the ones who keep telling the House to stay on vacation week after week in order to prevent the release of the Epstein Files?

Because I'm pretty positive that's *you* who's been doing that.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

Walz: "We have a federal system that we're all in it together, we help other states when they need it, but we have a situation where they're trying to divide us & provide specific aid to states that they like at the moment, which is absolutely unconscionable... either that or give us our money back"

This is $5 billion MORE that the entire USAID budget that DOGE cut.
