We can throw another $500,000,000,000 at the Pentagon this year and spend $1,000,000,000/day on a wholly useless war, but we can't afford to hire doctors and nurses to take care of our veterans? The United States is such an irresponsible, messed up country right now.

Yeah, I'm seeing predictions of gasoline being $15/gallon next week, but thanks to Donald Trump remaining laser-focused on what really matters to ordinary Americans, very rich people will soon be able to waltz in this:

In a new TIME interview, Trump casually acknowledged Americans could face retaliatory attacks at home due to his escalating war with Iran. βI guess,β he said when asked about the risk, adding: βWhen you go to war, some people will die.β time.com/7382697/trum...

Ben Stiller is calling out the White House after it used a clip from Tropic Thunder in a video promoting the Iran war.
βWe never gave you permission and have no interest in being part of your propaganda machine. War is not a movie,β Stiller wrote.

The Most Chilling Detail in the U.S. Attack on an Iranian Naval Ship
The Iranian warship was taking part in an international exercise with many other countriesβincluding the United States.
This is a chilling crime. A shame on our country. The Iranian ship was unarmed. The US knew this. The sailors were murdered by our navy, and the survivors were left to die at sea.

Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"

Hey, all you disingenuous Republicans claiming what the United States is currently engaging in Iran isn't a war:
Last year, the Department overseeing operations [illegally] changed its name to "The Department of WAR," not "The Department of Limited Defensive Engagements."

Missourians on probation and parole canβt vote. Their rights might be restored
The House has approved legislation that would allow the more than 53,000 people supervised by the state to vote.
Wow, a huge bipartisan coalition passed a bill in the Missouri House to allow anyone who is not presently incarcerated to vote.
More than half the states allow this, but Democrats have led this in the last decade. Haven't seen a GOP-led chamber pass this in that time. Big deal.

Capitol Hunters confirms Platner lied about why he could not get back into the Marines in 2009. It was because of his Nazi/antisemitic tattoo. He blamed Marine policy barring sleeve tattoos, but Marine policy grandfathered sleeve tattoos. It barred symbols of hate, which is what the Totenkopf is.

β.. one thing the US economy doesnβt need right now is a war of choice shutting down a major trade route, blowing up oil markets, and driving up the cost of energy for Americans, just as the labor market seizes up.
