The White House turning war and death into content mimicking video games is a moral collapse, not a messaging strategy. War is not a game!

EPIC FAIL

Interesting how all the right-wing and pro-Israel accounts here remain obsessed about Mamdani and his wife but barely a peep about the Manhattan Institute poll that revealed a majority of young Republicans are Holocaust deniers and love Nick Fuentes, who praises Hitler and is an open anti-semite.

Are we still looking for waste, fraud, and abuse? I think I found some.

Trump’s holy warriors finally got the apocalypse they’ve prayed for Hundreds are dead. Iran is retaliating. And some of the people who helped start this war think it's going exactly as God intended.

Christian Nationalism is NOT Christianity, but it is a national security threat.

📌 The Military Religious Freedom Foundation says it has received over 200 complaints that troops are being told war with Iran is meant to accelerate “Armageddon.”

Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs

This ghoul has finally been fired. But make no mistake, Stephen Miller is still in charge of DHS and especially ICE.

Kristi Noem has used $200M+ in taxpayer funds to pay firms with close ties to her top aides to make anti-immigrant PSAs.

Her luxury jets will cost taxpayers nearly $300M.

Trump's lackeys rail against "government waste," but are happy to pilfer taxpayer funds for themselves.

So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.

That's roughly $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

People do not want this.

They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

The glibness. The indifference. The carelessness. The utter lack of planning for a war against a country of 90M. The sickness of a man who acts on whim that will kill thousands not hundreds. The horror of a regime that enables this sickness. The broken body politic that votes in such malignancy.

Still, nobody on the right will care about the contradiction. They will only care how it effects their bank account. And it will.

The morally bankrupt Trump administration has partnered with another morally bankrupt authoritarian to declare an unprovoked war on Iran, already killing scores of civilians.

We need an immediate vote from Congress on a War Powers Resolution. Then articles of impeachment.
