When visiting Indonesia a couple years ago, I overheard someone explaining that they didn’t need a visa because “we’re American, & we don’t do that.”
Trump: "A lot of our people were walking around without legs"
Most Americans disapprove of President Trump's handling of Iran, and a majority sees Iran as either only a minor threat or no threat at all, an NPR/PBS News/Marist poll finds.
2 years from now, 5 years from now, 10 years from now, and 20 years from now, Americans are going to be subject to attacks here and all over the world because of what Trump is doing right now.

Susie Wiles: Gotta do something about gas prices
Trump advisor: Let's lie about it.
Wiles: Tried that
Advisor: Say gas prices are going down?
Wiles: But they're not
Advisor: OK, berate media to say up is down.
Wiles: Gas station signs
Advisor: Have we tried asserting things that aren't true?
Yes, also, the US wants everyone to get on board—use of bases, absorbing refugees, increased fuel costs, etc—while also dealing with US tariffs.
RAJU: You'll concede this is war?
MARKWAYNE MULLIN: We haven't declared war. They declared war on us
RAJU: The president called it war and Secretary Hegseth called it war
REPORTER: When you walked up just now, you called it war
MULLIN: Okay. That was a misspoke.
Historian here history first time as tragedy the second time as farce.
How about refunds for American consumers that had to pay? (Maybe just for those that didn’t vote for this nonsense)

There’s only 30k data points out of Ukraine but learning is woke
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
FT comments section this morning - saying what everyone else is thinking, right?
I know that the people who need to read this aren’t here, but here goes:
Rules of engagement aren’t for the enemy. They’re for you. They’re for your soldiers when they’re captured or wounded. They’re for your civilians when they’re in range of the enemy. They’re for your allies, to reassure.
"We only had 30,000 or so observable Shahed variant attacks in Ukraine, but the targets were woke, so our Chief Technology Officer decided not to study them"
Congress be like:
Donald Trump increases the defense budget last year from $874 billion to $1 trillion. He says he wants $1.5 trillion this year. Now he wants $50 billion more for his Iran War. Every Democrat should be screaming about the military budget, not cutting deals to keep raising it.
🤔
On the one hand fuck.
On the other... that means they own this, and I don't see it getting any more popular as time goes on.
I’ve been notified about another death in ICE custody.
This marks a stunning 40 deaths during the second Trump administration.
This cannot continue. There must be real accountability for ICE and DHS.
As bad as the entire situation in Iran is, the way it’s being communicated about to our troops is even worse.
At least 200 members of the U.S. Armed Services have filed complaints alleging that military commanders have used extremist Christian rhetoric to justify the war with Iran.
Damn, Barbara Starr 🔥
I know this is very funny but also pretty striking that our government lies about literally everything, including stuff that's easy to prove.
Any Dem who ever sits down to make a deal across the aisle with this captured Congress, you're a dope.
