"I was being ironical."

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 countries—including the United States.

"We aren't following any stupid rules of engagement." Hegseth orders a submarine to sink an unarmed Iranian naval vessel in the Indian Ocean to participate in India's peace exercises. A war crime? Well, the US tried, convicted and imprisoned German naval officers for doing roughly the same thing.

No, unlike immigrant families seeking political asylum in the U.S., the MAGAts who rioted at the U.S. Capitol are not a danger to anyone!

Wanna bet? 😠

MAGA is the most toxic, hollow, phony, grifty, obnoxious, fraudulent, culty, soulless political movement in US history built on lies, hate, paranoia and greed. And as it unravels, so many rats will claim they were never really on the ship.

Well would you look at that

When one considers how free-spending, professionally incompetent, and self-sabotaging Noem is, I would think that finding someone even more unfit to serve in her place must have been a difficult chore! 🤨

Verrry nice work, Faye! I like it a great deal.

Thank you for sharing it with us. 😎

The Pentagon confirmed there was NO sign that Iran was going to attack the U.S.

No imminent threat.
No authorization from Congress.
No reason our service members should be dead.
And no exit plan or strategy.

This war on Iran is a reckless and deadly mistake by this regime.

Wow... Foxy's quoting Proust on Dude Day (and I swear I'm not buzzed).

I've gotta write this one down on MY calendar! 😄😜

I'm seeing six cats, but only five fish on that plate at the center of the table. Let's see how adorable and cute they all become when there's one fish remaining and several cats decide they are still hungry. 🐱😎

That's a pretty great analogy, Gurl. Thank you for sharing it. 👏😄

Governor Tim is old school, and he doesn't play! 👏💯💪

Wow, that happened much sooner than I expected! 😜

Merci beaucoup, mon amie. 🙃😘

Word on the street is, she's already interviewing fashion designers for her new professional uniform. Like the hat, the Special Envoy uniform is said to be equal parts 'butt-ugly' and 'laughably grotesque.' 😎

This is hilarious! I am enjoying this comedy very much. It's kinda like The West Wing, but with all of the actors on hallucinogenic drugs!

"Wow, Lindsey! That's just terrible. I don't know what to say.

"Well, I gotta go. It was good running into you. Let's have lunch, sometime." 😏

🎵 That's En-ter-tain-ment! 🎶

This is too good! It's like watching a Second City sketch.

The only thing it's missing is Eugene Levy. 😄😜

⬆️⬆️ Yes, indeed, this right here! ⬆️⬆️

C'mon, Lady Karma! We're in your corner. Bring the heat! 🤨😄

Firing Kristi Noem is not enough.
She must be prosecuted.
She must be punished.

Justice must be served.

Abolish DHS
Since its creation, the DHS has been guilty of civil liberties violations and overreach, yet it's never been held accountable. It's clear that this surveillance experiment has failed. Time for this department to go the way of the dodo. Then they must be held accountable for their crimes.
