This is what they mean when they say shit like "suicidal empathy."
It's just bloodlust. Not patriotism or deft military strategy. Just thuggery on a global scale.
Some children in Dilley were so distraught they cut themselves or talked about suicide, parents told ProPublica.
They said kids lost their appetites after finding worms and mold on their food, had trouble sleeping, and were constantly sick.
For years, strategists have warned national leaders against the temptations of "victory disease," the belief that winning battles means they're winning the war. Leaders throughout history have made this mistake, and Trump seems to be making it now.

So the same Russia telling Iran how to better kill Americans is now being rewarded by America?
Lucifer has a point
It's an ethnic cleansing campaign now.
Hegseth: "The only ones who need to be worried right now are Iranians who think they're going to live"
Screenshot from the Texas tribune that says Rep. Dan Crenshaw says culture of misinformation fueled his primary loss: "The truth didn't matter" The fourth-term congressman, who lost decisively to state Rep. Steve Toth, said baseless attacks about his alleged insider trading and gun stances fueled the upset. BY GABBY BIRENBAUM MARCH
Oh suddenly this Republican cares about “the truth”?
Another exemplar of the Republican motto: I care not when it happens to thee, but I care greatly when it happens to me.
In Florida, insurance executives and roofing contractors are dictating how sociology professors must teach their courses and are mandating state-produced propaganda textbooks.
The regime doesn't want anyone to understand the society they live in.

Trying to "reach across the aisle" with nazis is called being a collaborator.
Yes — as @POTUS has said — we are bombing Narco Terrorists on land as well. Thank you to our partners in Ecuador. Much more to come from @Southcom …
In other war powers news…
Really not clear what is happening here.
Who is the “we” SecDef refers to?
Is this merely bombastic PR for U.S. support to Ecuadorian operations?
Or U.S. direct action?
Hegseth needs to stand trial after this as a war criminal. Between this attack and the girls' school, there's no ambiguity. He is responsible for mass murder and must be held accountable.
The only word for this is bloodlust
Videos like this are utterly cathartic.
I want EVERY Dem to throw away decorum and politeness and start YELLING the truth, like Rep. McGovern.
I've never seen a more perfect argument against the existence of billionaires than one Elon Musk.
Excuse the bad language, but this is where we are at right now:
The New Yorker Kristi Noem will be remembered as the most incompetent Secretary in the 23-year history of the D.H.S. now
I don’t think the incompetence actually is going to be what Kristi Noem is remembered for.
It will be the killings, the lawlessness, and the grift, if I had to guess.
I think reporters should press Bondi on why we don’t have a special counsel appointed at this point.
This piece will blow your hair and tie back.

AI isn't just going to take our jobs, it's the perfect tool for fascists who are more than willing to kill innocent people to get what they want.
Unless we take a stand, our future will be defined by worsening crimes against humanity.

This isn’t cute. I’m a chart expert and charts only do this when they’re in distress.
What, exactly, is Pam Bondi working so feverishly to cover up in the Epstein files? In remarks delivered on the floor of the Senate, Sen Sheldon Whitehouse does a remarkable job of unraveling what can be told at this point, while flagging key issues we need to pursue. The day's essential viewing.
For RFK Jr and his “measles isn’t serious” disciples:
“A number of them clearly said if they had known, they would have vaccinated themselves and their children against measles, but they didn’t realize how bad it was”.
Platner should have known that joining Blackwater would be the defining moment in determining his fitness to serve and his poor judgement. Yet besides his vacuous excuse that he was bored, he hasn't been able to pile up the same compulsive lies that have characterized his campaign on his other racist and homophobic assaults.
Graham Platner is a serious fucking problem.

👇🎯 An incredible bar that he actually clears
IOW, Hegseth is saying to the entire defense industry, 'You will be complicit in our global assholinessmaxxing, or you will be destroyed. Resistance is futile. We are Borg.'
Maybe not the last part cuz I doubt he's Trek fan. But you get the idea....

In light of recent news, this article is now free for everyone.
Since last year, I and Al Shaw & @bxroberts.org have investigated the linkages between Trump appointees and the industries they oversee. Today we published a searchable database containing approximately 3,200 financial disclosure forms of roughly 1500 officials.
www.propublica.org/article/trum...
Screenshot of ProPublica webpage titled “Explore Financial Disclosures From President Trump and 1,500 of His Appointees,” accompanied by this blurb: “Use this database to explore potential conflicts of interest for President Donald Trump and his team. The documents disclose positions officials have held outside government, their assets and their debts, among other things.” A search bar prompts the user to search for a person or financial holding.
THREAD: We just released a tool that allows you to search billions of dollars in wealth, ties to the most powerful companies in the country, and details of the personal finances of President Trump and over 1,500 of his appointees.
Here’s how it works 1/
