I’m Sure Glad I Bought an EV and Solar Panels - The American Prospect Trump’s idiotic war of aggression on Iran is spiking oil prices. That's not a concern if you have an electric car.

Renee Good was also shot at point-blank range through her side window by an ICE agent who was in no danger

Alex Pretti wasn’t in a car, but he too was shot at point-blank range by an ICE agent who was in no danger

It seems every time ICE kills someone they lie to cover up shooting innocent people

Imagine any Democrat saying this. Just imagine what would happen.

Trump doesn’t want Americans to know they’re in danger because he’ll look bad.

Maybe a seeming epidemic of 'imposter syndrome' is really a society that elevates boasters, braggarts, and blusterers, and so anyone else who somehow rises is genuinely out of place.

The sheer contempt with which they've treated even the most basic questions about their attack on Iran, even from friendly media is still somehow jarring. They genuinely feel like they shouldn't have to explain or justify or address anything. And it's not just Trump, it's every person involved.

The last photo of third-grader Mikaeil Mirdoraghi, waving to his mom before he left for school. He was killed shortly after in the U.S./Israeli strike on a primary school in Minab.

How else would you explain their level of comfort with open anti-semites in the west?

It's a poorly kept secret that many Israeli Jews don't view diaspora Jews particularly favorably. Especially American Jews who often criticize Israel's treatment of Palestinians.

Not saying it's a smart strategy, but I am fairly convinced there are elements of truth to this.

A conspiracy theory I deeply believe in is that Bibi Netanyahu actually wants this outcome because:

A. Rising anti-Semitism makes Aliyah more likely and shores up Jewish demographics in Israel.

B. Diaspora Jews who stay would see Israel as an escape pod, paradoxically making you more pro-Israel.

One of the instances in which it is actually emphatically true that by stifling left-liberal criticism of Israel on a liberal basis you just leave open room for nutjobs to do it and fill the space instead

Eh we get green shoots of this every couple months and it never goes anywhere. They love dear leader.

A prolonged oil crisis would suck for the economy and I dread the thought of it helping russia's war machine. But the upside is that it would likely be the last oil crisis in history.

We have the technology and the means to be done with this shit forever. May this finally wake up those on the fence

But also, Texas is not the only GOP state doing mid-decade redistricting!

Caloric intake was worse for sure, but I'm not sure if your average modern junk food addled sedentary American male is exactly prime war fighting material either.

5'8" and 140 according to the best available historical records, but who's counting :)
Also keep in mind that most jobs were much more physically demanding in the 1940s and people got around mostly by walking and public transit at the time. People were just fitter.

I mean, most Americans are somewhere on the scale between seriously overweight and obese. What percentage of fighting age male population do you think is actually jaceked right now?

Friendly reminder that Obama achieved a nuclear deal with Iran that completely stopped enrichment activity, without a costly unnecessary invasion. A deal that Trump then immediately tore up during his first term.

❗️Russia is providing Iran with targeting intelligence on US military positions including warships and aircraft in the Middle East, the Washington Post reported, citing three officials. Six US soldiers were killed in Kuwait in strikes analysts link to the intelligence sharing. #Iran

You can't think of any reasons why Ukraine would have a score to settle with Iran? None at all?!

US is consistently voting with russia in the UN now. While Ukrainians share tech to protect its bases from Iranian drones.
