This is spreading all over Bluesky today and is wildly misleading--it is from eight months ago and it is in reference to working with NATO allies and arming Ukraine.
It's just impossible to keep up with the stupidity of our government
The writer in the Athletic doesn’t understand the drive to be the best.
MAGA's rhetoric of western civilizational emergency is so weird. They look at ICE arresting grandmothers and they see the ancient Greeks defeating the Persians or the Franks stopping the Islamic invaders in 732.
Everyone else sees ICE arresting grandmothers.

Trump: "Any time I want it to end, it will end.”
Me: Israel and Iran would like a word.
I have never met anyone who is more adept at tracking every last cent they have than people who live or have lived in poverty
it is a skill developed out of necessity and it never leaves you

AOC has a BA in international relations and economics, not a Masters. But you do make a good point nonetheless.
So...who is gonna tell her that the Straight of Hormuz has already stopped the flow of oil.
Road kill is cheaper too.
And another indication Trump’s war is ill thought out and going south.
Imagine waging war on Afghanistan to replace the Taliban with the Taliban and waging war on Iran to replace Khamenei with Khamenei🤦♀️
Capitalism has lost its fucking mind.
Louder for…seemingly every American who still thinks social programs are a waste and war is good and necessary.
The fact that Donald Trump is going to try to subvert the 2026 elections doesn't mean he will be successful. We have shown before that we can fight back in court and win. The key is that we must educate everyone about what is going to happen and what they can do as well to defend democracy.
Trump doesn’t understand that the war isn’t over when he says it’s over. It’s over when they say it’s over. He has backed Iran into a corner. Iran will not stop fighting just because the U.S. does.
I’m confused. Is it America First or Israel First? MIGA OR MAGA?
True, this:

An ADSBx map showing C104 flying from Florida to Watertown SD late last night.
Ugh. The brand-new Coast Guard jet Kristi Noem was using before she got fired flew down to Florida late Friday -- presumably for the "Shield of the Americas" announcement -- and then returned to Watertown, SD, late Saturday. So she's still using it!!
The Middle East is on fire. Gas prices are soaring. Jobs are disappearing. Senile Satan is golfing again.
I’m watching the left gear up to attack Newsom…and it makes my heart sink. I watched people tear down Gore (and) Hillary Clinton, I watched people tear down Biden and Harris., . but at the moment, when the job is to defeat the other guy, we defeat ourselves.”

Seriously, though. I don't think Reagan and "Trickle Down" get nearly enough credit for how they led to the economic and moral bankruptcy in this country.
We need to bring back the pre-Reagan tax structure in this country.

It's over when I say it’s over even if it's not.
Ukraine offers to help defend the West from Iranian drones.
Russia helps Iran track American forces.
And the White House eases sanctions on Russian oil.
Explain that to the families of U.S. troops. My latest:

Donald Trump at the annual dinner the White House Correspondents annual dinner “has transformed what should be a celebration of press freedom into a display of submission. The group is so craven that it has opted not to even have a comedian who might poke fun at the Orange God King”
