How are we governed by some of the dumbest people on the planet?
Never, because that would require thought and introspection.
if you brought back grant and sherman today it would take them about 4 hours to dismantle our current military command structure (grant would drink hegseth into a coma, Sherman would spend most of that time shrieking in horror at the existence of airplanes)
All I'm waiting for is Ford's secretive upcoming EV mid-size pickup.
This is horrifying.
the U.S. military has been undermanned for years, we are absolutely unready for any kind of meaningful conflict. i imagine the regime will back out before they try to force a draft. it would not go well for them.
If I have to pick up a gun, they aren't going to like the direction I'll be pointing it.
Dead, rather than alive? Well, yes
Watched βAnnieβ (1982) with the kids and it was so weird to see the president singing optimistically about the government helping people, while serving tea to an orphan in a White House he was not tearing down
Me either. I wish there was a hell for them to burn in.
i don't care about any arguments against this. right now the sum total of my political advocacy is: crush the Republicans and make them pay. i don't care what comes after because until we do that nothing better is possible.
Sheβs also very nice and cool!
I agree with a lot of this, worth reading:

If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.
Steve-O was on Joe Rogan's show trying to defend trans people and Rogan went off, he called trans people "fucking perverts" and "mass shooters" who have done the majority of school shootings.
Completely unhinged bigotry paid for by your Spotify subscriptions.
These people are completely untethered from reality.
Hegseth is a pussy ass bitch.
Senator Tim Sheehy breaks the hand of a US Marine protesting the war in Iran during a hearing.
This is disgusting.
Spainβs MEP Irene Montero: We must isolate the U.S. and Israel now, so they can no longer spread terror across the globe.β
I completely agree.
you are literally the one guy who isn't allowed to complain about this
schools are never valid military targets, on or off base
if someone bombed a DoD school in Okinawa and killed a bunch of American 4th graders, that would be a war crime.
The murder of Iranian schoolchildren is a war crime.
OMAN FM: Iran agreed to zero enriched uranium stockpiling, hours later Trump & Bibi attacked them π€
It feels like the majority of knowledge I gained from social studies classes in middle school about civics and American government is useless now. I was promised three branches of government and checks and balances.
Let me add, generations of my family are intimately familiar with the hypocrisy and failure of the country to live up to its promises. Yet growing up, I still believed in the promise. Itβs a gut punch to watch all these exceptions/failures happen in real-time.
It's unusual for the Secretary of Defense to spend this much time obsessing about children's genitalia, but I guess that's sort of the main theme of the second Trump administration.
Valid driver's license required: Kansas voter registration, entering Kansas courts, opening a bank account, getting on a plane, enrolling kids in school, filling a prescription, accessing healthcare services, cashing a check, reporting a crime to the police, entering bars and clubs, buying sudafed
it's really surreally funny that the socialist mayor of New York City seems to be Donald Trump's current favorite person
if only they couldve had jadzia flirt with mccoy in ds9 tribble epβ¦β¦.
Sounds about right.π₯
