A few hours after NYT reported that the U.S. bombed an elementary school in Iran, killing many children, the White House last night posted this video mixing airstrike footage with Top Gun, Iron Man, Gladiator, Halo, Breaking Bad, Star Wars, John Wick, Superman, Transformers and Dragon Ball Z

Tillis: You decided to kill that dog because you had not invested the appropriate time in training it, and then you have the audacity to say it’s a leadership lesson. You killed a goat and said it was behaving badly. You’re a farmer β€” you don’t castrate a goat, they behave badly.

TED makes multi-million-dollar investment to boost safe abortion in 10 countries This is the first time TED’s Audacious Project has invested in an organization specifically focused on abortion access and care.

The global reproductive rights organization Ipas will be receiving "multi millions" from TED's Audacious Project. This is the first time the project has funded an organization that works specifically in abortion access and care since the initiative was developed in 2018.

The Texas Senate primary is a battle for the Democratic Party's soul. James Talarico is a "choir boy." Jasmine Crockett is a "street fighter." Their race will set the tone for the midterms clash to come.

If you're not paying attention to the Texas Senate primary, you should be. It could decide the fate of the Democratic Party.

It's between two Democratic rising stars who couldn't be more different than each other: Reps. James Talarico and Jasmine Crockett. 1/3 🧡

I just left a classified briefing on Iran, and here's what I can say: it is so much worse than you thought. You are right to be worried.

β€˜No to war’: SΓ‘nchez doubles down after Trump threat to cut off trade with Spain PM says his country will not be complicit in growing conflict in Middle East β€˜simply out of fear of reprisals from someone’ * Middle East crisis – live updates * Europe live – latest updates The Spanish prime minister, Pedro SΓ‘nchez, has responded to Donald Trump’s extraordinary threat to cut off all trade with Spain over his government’s refusal to facilitate the US’s ongoing attacks against Iran, comparing the growing conflict in the Middle East to playing β€œRussian roulette with the destiny of millions”. SΓ‘nchez, who has been one of the most vociferous European critics of Israel’s conduct in Gaza, said his government’s position on the widening instability could be summed up in three words: β€œNo to war.” Continue reading...

Christian Nationalist Logic:

"We're gotta waste millions of dollars killing folks in a useless war because Jesus is powerless to just come back himself and start Armageddon if we don't. He needs our help, y'all! Glory!"

We are entering a new planting and cropping season with far fewer farm workers. Farm jobs' minimum wage and working conditions are not palatable to Americans.

Increasing gas prices from war and tariffs are going to make prices spike.

Expect food prices to go even higher.

For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were.

These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War.

Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39

People who believe in an imminent Rapture/Armageddon don't have anything invested in what happens to you here on Earth. You are irrelevant to them and will be treated accordingly.

Merrick Garland Has Abandoned Prosecuting Trump’s Pre-2020 Crimes Few noticed, but on November 18, Merrick Garland officially abandoned even the pretense of ever holding Donald Trump accountable for multiple crimes that the Department of Justice already found Trump....

They voted to end this in 2020!

It didn't end.

Hopefully things will be different, next time.

"Soledad" harvests strawberries in Oxnard. "December, January, and February are the worst months for strawberry workers. We don't earn enough to cover expenses. I have children & things are very difficult. I'm only working 4-5 hours/day. I barely earn enough for rent." #WeFeedYou

Moulton: He ought to think about the war that he didn't go to. That he allowed another American to go to in his place when he dodged the draft, making up some excuse about a sore foot so that he didn't go have to go serve in Vietnam. There is an example of a war where we sought regime change

US moving pregnant immigrant girls to Texas to avoid providing abortions, critics say Ex-official calls transfer of unaccompanied girls as young as 13, many pregnant due to rape, a human rights violation
