Please preorder it! π§΅
You're not missing anything. If it was going as great as Hangover Hegseth and Mad King Donald claim, there would be video footage 24/7. The lack of real information coming out instead of just stupid tweets is a big tell that things aren't going well at all.
this made me cackle all the way through

It could not be more obvious that the president does not care about US service members and in fact regards their deaths as mere political inconveniences. He has more sympathy for Putin than Americans who died because he decided to wage illegal war. Just listen to him.
Graphic to call for a press conference at Broadview tomorrow, a photo of the detention facility is showcased with copy that reads: "PRESS CONFERENCE: SUNNY SHARES HER STORY ICE DETAINED 3 US CITIZENS AND 3 GREEN CARD HOLDERS FOR OVER 48 HOURS. WE DEMAND ANSWERS. MARCH 8, AT 2:00PM 1930 BEACH ST, BROADVIEW, ILLINOIS"
UPDATE:
Sunny and the others detained are now safe at home. But weβre demanding answers about their illegal detention and transfer across state lines.
Join Sunny Naqvi and community leaders tomorrow as she shares her story.

They can call democrats everything under the sun since 2024β¦ losers, delusional, fearmongerers, libtards, radicals, communist, socialist etc but add in βcorrectβ we were fucking correct about Trump β¦ but they canβt because once they do then EVERY OTHER INSULT IS THEN WRONG!

It's as if they understand and accept the facts and/or expert consensus on a given topic but set policy in the opposite direction to annoy the libs.
It's not just ignorance or a lack or knowlege. It's anti-knowlegde.
Earlier this week, Idaho became the latest state to push back against the U.S. Department of Justiceβs campaign to seize the private voter data of every state. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/eve...
1/ I've watched administrations handle various wars and military operations, and I can say without question I've never seen an administration show such casual disregard for the danger U.S. troops are facing or the death of U.S. troops. All things Trump are disturbing, but this particularly so.

Nothing says dignified transfer quite like a baseball cap.
This is what Democracy looks like! #NoKings #NoWars Release ALL of Epstein!
A group of JFREJ members stand near the entrance to Tompkins Square Park, with NY Public Advocate Jumaane Williams. Some are holding signs that say Brad Lander for Congress. Yours truly is on the far right and smiling widely. It's a little grey, but spring is coming!
I went to a rally for @bradlander.bsky.social at Tompkins with a bunch of lovely @jfrejnyc.bsky.social folks! @advocate.nyc.gov
was one of the speakers and terrific as usual.
In his own words... promoting violence. Listen for yourself.

It's easy to write it off as imbecility, but it actually makes perfect sense when you understand that everything they do, they do for themselves and their rich friends. If the price of oil goes up, guess who gets richer? Anyone who makes money off the American oil industry.
Iβve been waiting and expecting this so here it comes!! In some respects Iβll be surprised if this moron makes it 3 more years. The bigger question is can America and its citizens make it?
Itβs not genius gone dark. Itβs insecurity with a budget. They imitate what they think strength looks like. Meanwhile the rest of us live with the consequences of their dress rehearsal.
I always assumed the world would be run by masterminds. Evil, sure. Greedy, obviously. But competent. Not this - malice stapled to breathtaking stupidity.
They mistake posturing for strategy, vibes for vision. Itβs cosplay statesmanship. Power worn like a rented tux that doesnβt quite fit.
I planned to share my report on the body cam footage early next week when I learned that a DC news station had obtained some of the footage as a result of my lawsuit and they were going to scoop me. After working on this for a year, I couldn't let that happen. Published 2 mins before they aired :)
Obama on Jesse Jackson: "The message he sent to a 22 year old child of a single mother with a funny name, an outsider, was that maybe there wasn't any place, any room, where we didn't belong"
it's always nice to be reminded of how incredible a public speaker Barack Obama is. here's part of his eulogy of Jesse Jackson
Oh.
βWe have agreedβ β how nice of them! Surely theyβre doing this work pro bono right?
Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say βSend meβ wherever we have a chance to make an impact.
How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.
We can throw another $500,000,000,000 at the Pentagon this year and spend $1,000,000,000/day on a wholly useless war, but we can't afford to hire doctors and nurses to take care of our veterans? The United States is such an irresponsible, messed up country right now.
Buttigieg: Youβve got money from the Middle East going into the Trump family crypto fund while you have Americans going to the Middle East for Donald Trumpβs war.
When Trump calls Zelenskyy to beg for Ukrainian intercepter drones to shoot down Iranian Shahed 136 drones, I hope Zelenskyy replies "You are gambling with World War 3!!!", and hangs up.
DHS claimed "an ICE agent had fired 'defensive shots' into Martinez's vehicle after Martinez 'intentionally ran over' another agent."
But body cam video now "shows that Martinez's vehicle, a blue Ford Fusion, was stationary or going at a very low rate of speed when he was fatally shot."
