"Oh, you want some nails, Brian? Because the hardware store ran out and won't be restocking until the Strait of Hormuz is safe to traverse again? Is my impassible living room full of sundries still funny to you, Brian?"

Man, it's gonna be so funnysad if the US supply chain REALLY goes to shit and all of the hoarders become venerated pirate-kings controlling the dispensation of common goods like string, bricks and tupperware.

US Jewish institutions backing a horrifically unpopular and evil war while claiming to speak for all Jews and for Jewish identity is extremely dangerous as well as a moral catastrophe. 1

"Declaring that no quarter will be given" is specifically prohibited by Art 23 of the Annex to the Hague Convention IV, which means it is a war crime under US domestic law by virtue of the War Crimes Act (18 U.S. Code Β§ 2441).

this is *partially* because of how wall street evaluates company spending but it is *also* because almost everyone secretly believes they're an autodidact who doesn't need instruction

It IS interesting that no one points the finger at Bernie and his folks for giving Platner an unvetted signal boost early on

That of course would require reckoning with the tiny little problem that Bernie lets racism have a free pass regularly

If you're a service member being ordered to prep for deployment for the War in Iran and you have moral and/or ethical misgivings on all this, remember that you have the right to apply for conscientious objector status.

as Trump reportedly considers sending ground troops in to open the straight of hormuz, it's worth remembering how much extra, unnecessary danger it puts US troops in to preemptively declare "we will murder soldiers who surrender to us" (which is what "no quarter" means)

If we don't fairly tax the rich, we'll just end up eating them. And from the available evidence, they will taste TERRIBLE and be filled with unproven supplements & narcotics.
It would be like feeding a dog grapes and heroin.
So it would be best for all involved if we just taxed their wealth.

KILMEADE: You think Putin is helping Iran?

TRUMP: I think he might be helping them a little bit, yeah, & he probably thinks we're helping Ukraine, right?

K: You are, right?

T: Yeah, we're helping them also, & so he says that, & China would say the same thing. It's like, hey, they do it & we do it

I don't know if crypto is running this dirty and possibly illegal smear campaign. But I do know that if we want a Democratic Party that doesn't suck, we should support primary candidates in safe blue districts who fund their campaigns with grassroots dollars alone.

$11.3 billion would have fully funded the training of 100,000 new nurses to solve our staffing crisis.
Instead, it was spent in just six days on an illegal war with no endgame. Trump is choosing destruction over good health care jobs.

In the 1920s, there was an enormous Klan-aligned caucus in the House of Representatives that passed an immigration restriction bill designed to keep out Catholics and Jews because they supposedly posed an existential threat to American civilization. 100 years later, here we are.

Some Tech CEO every day: "You don't get to own things now. I own your refrigerator. If you say mean things about me I will turn off your fridge and spoil all your dairy and eggs and meat. If you don't like it you go to jail."
