“A lot.”
Republicans in Congress say they don’t even know how much Trump’s Iran war is costing.
Every American should know: while they’re kicking 17 million people off health care, they’re willing to spend endless amounts on Trump’s war of choice.
America First, right?
Why is it that MAGa Republicans get so excited about murdering children?

Tate was trying to get to Dubai on a bus.
When they got to the Saudi border everyone was told to get off for passport and baggage checks and Tate decided to stay on - presumably because the bus was air conditioned and he didn't want to stand in a queue.
He then got detained by Saudi guards.
They’re stealing our jobs!

Fars News Agency, an outlet affiliated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, said on Thursday that Iran targeted Amazon and Microsoft facilities in recent drone strikes.

Trump to Rubio: "Your next one is gonna be Cuba. He's waiting but he says, 'Let's get this one finished first.' We could do them all at the same time, but bad things happen."
I continue to be gobsmacked at 1) how common this formulation is 2) how antisemitic and generally bigoted it is 3) and how for all the talk of anti-semitism this is never cited as an example even though it’s quite literally the original incarnation.
If you are a Costco customer, Trump stole your money and won’t give it back.
At least 4 of the companies awarded contracts so far to build a U.S. defense shield are owned by a private equity firm founded by billionaire Steve Feinberg, who is now the deputy secretary of defense — the second-highest-ranking official in the Pentagon.

Was AI used for the targeting that likely resulted in the bombing of the girls school?
We must have answers to that question and there is ZERO reason for delay because the Pentagon damn well already knows the answer.
