I particularly hate it when I see it in my residential urban neighborhood when parents walking their kids to school

U.S. Troops Were Told Iran War Is for β€œArmageddon,” Return of Jesus Advocacy group reports commanders giving similar messages at more than 30 installations in every branch of the military

EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war.

The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been β€œinundated” with more than 110 complaints.

One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesus…

Well, we did it because of the protesters

Nukes

I mean they’re building an ICBM

We did it defensively because Iran was going to attack us

I mean Israel was gonna do it anyway so we did it too

They were gonna attack us because Israel was gonna attack them so we attacked them

Why Attack Iran? Our Authoritarianism and Our Corruption

How to understand war with Iran? We must get away from propaganda. Facts suggest two interpretive frameworks: a foreign war as a mechanism to destroy democracy at home; and a foreign war as an element of personal corruption by the president of the United States.

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M, to detain 4k people of whom only 30 were accused of violent crimes.

$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst". Plus two citizens murdered.

One of the first things we were taught at Quantico was that there is never a moment in which you are not representing the Bureau; but, then again, we earned our place there, and weren’t granted its directorship as a sinecure for partisan malfeasance and a willingness to disregard the constitution.

Kinda weird that the party that controls the House, the Senate, and the White House claims there's rampant voter fraud.

DC’s money belongs to DC β€” Free DC Representative Brandon Gill and Senator Rick Scott have introduced bills that would block DC from using our own local money to support children and families here.

The Senate is expected to vote soon on H.J.Res. 102 to blow up the DC tax code.

1. It was not an accident.
2. It was not a staffer.
3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia.
4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares.
5. His base agrees with him.
6. He will do it again.
7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

TRIGGER WARNING, because here is a US Marshal from Trumpβ€˜s Gestapo Force in Memphis kicking a puppy today in the Whitehaven neighborhood and breaking its rib. They were serving a warrant and I guess BIG MAN got scared of the schnauzer.

It is really infuriating to see how misogyny really does unite men across the sociopolitical spectrum. And, in so far as the Epstein files go, they sort women into two categories: fuckable or irrelevant. When they near a hint of accountability they complain about not being able to make women prey.

Again, not once has the media asked β€œCan we afford ICE?” the way they obsessed about affordability with Biden’s student loan debt relief or Obama’s health care plan. And the media surely isn’t going to ask β€œCan we afford this?” about this crazy military spending increase πŸ€”πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Incredible. They destroyed a great newspaper because they hated the people who actually paid for it and read it so much that they'd rather scrap the paper if they couldn't get Tucker Carlson's audience bsky.app/profile/maxt...

The very well-accepted term for "stripping the legal protections of a minority group and then sending a paramilitary force to carry them away" is "ethnic cleansing."

They are planning to ethnically cleanse Springfield, Ohio.

the reason DHS officers wear masks is because it allows them to commit crimes with impunity. there is literally no legitimate reason for it.

So we talked about who looked proud and who looked embarrassed, and whether you should be proud about keeping your neighbors safe.

Violating 96 court orders is why Democrats are insane for thinking that they can get ice to hold to any kind of β€œreforms.”

Much of what they’re doing is already against DHS policy. @durbin.senate.gov @duckworth.senate.gov @laurenunderwood.bsky.social
