Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."

This is one of the key things about T: he’s an obsessed eugenicist & has been from the start. He talked about it a lot on The Apprentice. It’s racist Nazi talk, obv, but it’s also why he believes rich people are rich: bc they are born to be superior. And this was RARELY covered in the press

Operation Epic Fury is a stupid name but also an obvious fumble because it's so easy for the haters (me) to insult them by calling it Operation Epic Fail. it's like naming your kid Holden Cox and sending them to public school

chat, what happens if plastic prices spike in a society that has eliminated every packaging and storage option except plastic?

nobody wants this shit. we want the taxes we do pay to go to schools and healthcare instead of being used to flatten buildings full of children in Iran. how are you so bad at this

This is Jeanine Pirro answering one question today.

Clearest sign that there isn’t actually any real strategic goal

it feels like a lot of Dems are suddenly trying "we can run a robust social safety net by only taxing rich people and corporations" messaging and that is

a) not a great message, in that we should all contribute

b) not actually true, math-wise

Dear members of the Senate: if you vote to confirm Mullin to run DHS, people should absolutely hold you personally responsible for every atrocity ICE and CBP carry out under his leadership.

Hegseth: Why do the headlines say inflammatory things like β€œwar intensifies”?

Pentagon official press release 3 days ago: Hegseth says war intensifies

I was texting with my dad the other day and he said "Hey, do you think the reason Trump's minions have been pushing the 'Actually, this war has been going on for 47 years' line has anything to do with Trump being the 47th president?"

And well...

we shouldn't just solarize the country because it's the coolest fucking technology on earth. there are practical benefits too

If the government really is worried about Iranian sleeper cells, then it was probably a mistake to systematically reorient the majority of US counterterror resources toward arresting immigrant grandmothers and five-year-olds in bunny hats

They can't control what's happening now, so they're trying to control what gets said about it.

Two things here.

One, you don't sit there and whine about media coverage and headlines if things are going well.

Two, the administration is just outright saying that they fully expect Ellison to use CNN to be a Trumpist propaganda organ.

Modern Republicanism is making up a thing to be scared about and then using that as the basis for policy

This is indicative of a mindset which essentially says "there can be no such thing as scholarship or intelligence when it comes from a group I've been conditioned to demonize" and we'd all be better off if we realized these people are simply like this. There's nothing to persuade here, it's bigotry.

I can't even find the words to express how repugnant and despicable this post is.

People who spew such Islamophobic bile don't belong in the United States Congress. The job of elected officials is to combat hate, not fan its flames. (1/2)

Respectfully, eat shit. Those kids were expelled, arrested, and targeted relentlessly by their school administrations with the specific goal of preventing further protest. Eighteen year old kids were held down and maced by campus security, hit point blank with tear gas canisters by riot cops.

it took just over a year to get from "I'll lower costs on day one" to "I'm raising prices and it's good, actually"

Elad Simchayoff on twitter:

I interviewed two Israeli Air Force pilots who are part of the operation in Iran. When I asked what it felt like to enter Iranian airspace for the first time, one of them said:
β€œYou find yourself thinking, what do these people, so far away from us, actually want from us? They have a huge and beautiful country. Right now full of snow and lakes. Truly a very, very beautiful place. What do they want from us, this small piece of land? It’s such a strange feeling.”

A surprising number of Israelis seem to have already forgotten that they're the ones who started the war.

Rep. Clyburn, former No. 3 House Democrat, will seek reelection The announcement from Clyburn, who turns 86 in July, comes as younger Democrats are challenging the old guard in primaries throughout the country.

Jesus Christ, man. You're turning 86 years old. Don't you want to spend time with your grandkids and great grandkids(?)? This is embarrassing. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Maybe it should matter that the President of the United States threatened the lives of the Iranian soccer team, who can say

Bush II set the bar very high but between this, USAID, the mass deportation atrocities and a conservative projection of the result of the anti-vax movement I think we can pretty definitively say Trump is the worst President now

For comparison's sake, the entire National Park Service costs $3 billion - a year.
