This is a real video from the official White House account on a war that is currently killing people. I don’t know how the US is going to come back from this.
The post was “JUSTICE THE AMERICAN WAY. 🇺🇸 🔥”

“A country that can instantly fund endless wars but debates every dime for healthcare and education doesn't have a budget issue--it has a values issue."

A billion dollars a day going towards the war in Iran so far.

Earlier this year, Donald Trump took control of Venezuelan oil assets without congressional approval. The Administration then moved $500 million from the first sale through Qatar with no transparency.

I introduced a bill to investigate this shady deal because the public deserves answers.

Was AI used for the targeting that likely resulted in the bombing of the girls school?

We must have answers to that question and there is ZERO reason for delay because the Pentagon damn well already knows the answer.

Despite Promises, Veterans Affairs Department Cut Thousands of Roles for Doctors and Nurses

Got it. There's plenty of funding to send troops into harm’s way, but not to take care of their health afterwards. This is shameful.

As I watch footage of explosions in Beirut and dust clouds towering above apartment blocks in Tehran, I keep coming back to something that I witnessed back in the summer of '04, during my first tour in Iraq. But first, let's start with a question:

Have you ever heard someone wail?

it says a lot about us, none of it good, that we chose a leader with not a single redeeming quality: stupid? yup. corrupt? absolutely. dishonest? to his core. violent? maybe the most violent ever. any ability to empathize with people? none. baseline level of regard for human life? not even a skosh.

When Trump came to power, he ripped up the peace deal that Obama had made, and used the uncertainty he created as an excuse to bomb Iran, insisting he had ended the problem he had created once and for all, except now he's bombing them again to solve the problem he created and previously solved?

Maybe it’s a bad idea to put people in charge of government who are eager for the rapture.

The Nihilism of Trump’s War Games - Truthdig At home and abroad, demonstrating strength through punishment is more important than “victory.”

The point of Trump wars is the war. There are plans for condos, but no peace. He preens, extorts what he can, and loses interest, assuming he began with any. What's left is a killer opportunity with no excuse left for it but civilizational extremism that ends either in futility or war crime.

We had a deal to keep Iran from getting nukes!

Trump backed out of it because he wanted to own Obama. Iran kept following its end of the deal for a year anyway, begging Trump to reenter the deal.

Trump literally backed out of the no nukes deal and then initiated a war because of nukes. Insanity.

We are At War now, according to President Bush, and I take him at his word. He also says this War might last for "a very long time."
Generals and military scholars will tell you that eight or 10 years is actually not such a long time in the span of human history - which is no doubt true - but history also tells us that 10 years of martial law and a wartime economy are going to feel like a Lifetime to people who are in their twenties today. The poor bastards of what will forever be known as Generation Z are doomed to be the first generation of Americans who will grow up with a lower standard of living than their parents enjoyed.
That is extremely heavy news, and it will take a while for it to sink in. The 22 babies born in New York City while the World Trade Center burned will never know what they missed. The last half of the 20th century will seem like a wild party for rich kids, compared to what's coming now. The party's over, folks.

As a former U.S. Surgeon General who held an active medical license and practiced medicine while in the role (at Walter Reed and aboard the USS Comfort) it is incomprehensible that the Senate is even considering a nominee for this role who lacks any active license and has never practiced unsupervised.

The authoritarian playbook for hate is all too familiar to us by now. They'll choose a target out-group they think they can do it to, pervert the law as far as they're able, and be as cruel as they can get away with, all just to prove they have that power.

Remember, it's about power.

Farmers were promised $400 million in drought aid. Trump's USDA ghosted them. More than a year later, not a penny has been spent and no one knows what happened to the money.

“They're teaching cadets to violate the Constitution”

This is confirmation that ICE is not following the constitution. This is one person who received these orders, surely more across the country were instructed to do the same!

Trump’s Profiteering Hits $4 Billion In August, I reported that the President and his family had made $3.4 billion by leveraging his position. After his first year back in office, the number has ballooned.

Donald Trump is using the presidency to rake in billions for himself and his family.

Secret business deals. Bribes from foreign governments. Taxpayer money going to his personal properties.

Trump’s corruption is staggering.

What problem is Trump's new global 10% tariff meant to solve?

If it's about leverage, ask: How much leverage do you get from a tariff that disappears in 150 days?

If it's onshoring: Who builds new factories based on tariff that disappear before the factory is built?

It's a tax. That's all it is.

Kristi Noem Must Be Impeached Members of Congress have a constitutional duty to remove this gangster from office.

BREAKING: FBI notifies Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension that it won’t provide access to evidence it’s collected on the killing of Alex Pretti by armed and masked federal agents.

Perhaps this would be a good time to note that 187 members of Congress are signed on to Impeach Kristi Noem:
