this is sort of like how the cop uniforms were an extraordinary use of the criminal justice system to advance Al Capone's geopolitical agenda in the St. Valentine's Day Massacre
Use your words.
“Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.”
That’s what the President of the United States is saying to the American people.
He won’t be hurt by a retaliatory attack or high gas prices. But you will — and that’s a sacrifice he’s willing to make.
Nobody wants to live like Russia
Nobody wants to live like North Korea
Nobody wants this illegal VANITY WAR
Nobody wants criminals in charge
Everybody wants healthcare
Everybody wants a living wage
Everybody WANTS THEM TO RELEASE THE TRUMP-EPSTEIN FILES and arrests to be made.

Like clockwork.
Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs
Who could possibly have predicted that a company whose slogan is "cheat on everything" would cheat?

DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate — and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.
He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.
The grift continues.
Teams in the top six conferences refusing to play the good teams in the next 12 conferences and then blaming those teams for having bad schedules is nasty work.
Pretty sure when they started imposing this idiocy they assured a bunch of judges that they would be able to refund the money with no problem if it ever came to that.
Running for Congress on a platform of sneaking into Polymarket HQ and unplugging all their stuff. Overflow crowds at a local Knights of Columbus hall roar with delight as I promise to pour Florida's Natural Grapefruit Juice (with pulp) into the USB-C port of every computer in the damn place.
Today's abysmal jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy.
What's required is investment in working people — and better wages.
When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs.
Remember this.
Foggy First Friday. March morning today in Chicago at sunrise as the fog rolled across the skyline.
I love watching people use LLMs in public. They’ll reply to a breaking news article and say “@grok is this true?” Babe where do you think it’s about to pull its answer from
Pretty difficult to refute a single thing in this perfect assessment of where the f**k we are, from @iandunt.bsky.social:
"Everyone is 12" theory remains undefeated.
At this point, I think there might literally be a 7th grade boy running White House comms.
And just like that we’re back to “Department of Defense”
NOPE
Inspectors General must be independent & nonpartisan. Reports say DOL IG Anthony D’Esposito plans to run for Congress. I asked if he’s running or doing campaign activity while serving as IG. He refused to answer. That is concerning given reports he put his mistress and fiancee’s daughter on payroll.
Secretary Noem's legacy is one of racial profiling, abuse by ICE and CBP, free speech violations, and more.
While she is leaving DHS, the anti-immigrant policies devised by White House aide Stephen Miller aren't. Congress must remain firm and deny funding to DHS until they truly rein in ICE.
Iraq's first lady, Shanaz Ibrahim Ahmed, a political/humanitarian figure from a prominent (& very political) Sulimaniyah-rooted Kurdish family closely tied to the PUK, coming in hot with a free history lesson for people who think Iraqi Kurds might be unquestioningly game for more US bait-and-switch.
Reminder that the US military budget is larger than the military spending of the next nine largest countries combined.
Over half goes to private defense contractors.
This is the military-industrial complex Eisenhower warned of — on steroids.
In the last 4 days one of my senators broke a Marine’s arm, the other one announced he wasn’t running minutes before the filing deadline so his hand-picked successor could take his place without a primary and my rep announced he was giving up his seat as well.
How’s y’all’s congresspeople doing?
Bye Felecia
Noem out
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.
This ICE detention center is the largest in the country and has become notorious for rampant physical abuse, medical neglect, and death.
We won't let up the pressure until it's shut down for good.
🚨BREAKING: A day before early voting begins in Virginia’s redistricting referendum, Barack Obama called on Virginians to vote in favor of a state constitutional amendment allowing the legislature to redraw its congressional map to counter GOP gerrymanders. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Korea’s four home runs today were the most in a WBC game in team history
Only 2 teams have hit more than 4 HR in a WBC game:
3/10/13 Japan: 6
3/8/09 Cuba: 6
