I work in D1 college athletics. Not only are women’s sports not being cancelled in our league, we just added Women’s Wrestling.

Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs

The killing of Iranian children during an illegal war is an impeachable offense (not to mention a grave crime) and Congress should really act like it.

15 Republicans in the Senate could end this nightmare before it somehow gets even worse.

Waiting for the administration to say the spike in gas prices isn't actually a big deal because so many Americans are losing their jobs and won't have to drive to work anymore.

President Trump's Pardons: An Embarrassment of Riches At least the specter of corruption in previous presidential administrations (Clinton’s pardon of Marc Rich or Biden’s pardon of his son) appeared to be an exception to the rule. Today, however, the ev...

That is insane: "Biden’s pardons eliminated roughly $680,000 in financial penalties owed to victims or the government. In contrast, Trump’s second-term pardons have forgiven criminal debts of more than $1.5 billion." www.cato.org/blog/embarra...

Obama: Every day you wake up to things you just didn’t think were possible. Each day we’re told by those in high office to fear each other. Everywhere we see greed and bigotry being celebrated, and bullying and mockery masquerading as strength.

The official postion that America is "completely decimating" anything is not supported by any evidence.

I can't believe he is never asked "which states?"

Worst jobs report.

Remember when Trump fired the head of BLS because he didn’t like the jobs report? And then he attempted to cook the books by installing a MAGA person?

Just another example of how so many of their attempts--like mid-decade gerrymandering---just fall flat.

The lack of media coverage about the bombing of the girls elementary schools is shocking.

So fun that our students think faculty and staff are also getting a week off.

Agreed. The US military has the ability to park these weapons with ridiculous precision.

If intentional, a monstrous crime.

If unintentional, gross negligence- and still a crime 🀬🀬🀬

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.

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 countriesβ€”including 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.

The reason we have β€œstupid rules of engagement” is to make sure we don’t bomb elementary schools.

If it’s true that the United States bombed an elementary school and killed scores of children it is an unfathomable crime. I have never been more disgusted to be an American.

Moskowitz: "Let me congratulate the former Homeland Security Secretary on her appointment to be the Shield of Americas, which I'm pretty sure the president came up with when he watched the last Avengers movie"

The "sacred ritual" he experienced as a child was possible because there likely was a full-time cook. When both parents work and kids have activities, the "sacred ritual" sometimes becomes a sandwich in the car.

I’ve spent years, decades, obsessing over the Bush Administration’s Iraq WMD lies, writing about them, debunking them.

I can think of no lie about Iraq WMDs told by Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld et al that comes even close to the enormity and absurdity of this lie from Donald Trump.

If McCormick actually spent time in PA, he would know our gas prices have been over $3.00 during this administration. And it has jumped $0.40 so far this week.

Hegseth: Media focus on troop deaths is to make Trump β€œlook bad”.

No dude, Americans dying in a war we didn’t want is bad.

Really bad.

Trump violated our Constitution by waging war without Congressional authorization.

Senate Rs had the chance to defend our Constitution. They failed.

They failed to defend our Constitution.
They failed to rein in Trump’s poorly planned and illegally-launched war.
They failed the American people.
