Worth watching the whole clip, but purely in propaganda terms it seems to me, admittedly just an amateur observer when it comes to war fighting, that it may be useful to send the message to the 91+ million Iranian civilians that we are not trying to kill them.

What can history teach us about what happens when a populist strongman with an idiosyncratic taste for low interest rates undermines central bank independence?

For over two thousand years Christians have been warning us about the antichrist.

When he finally shows up, they vote him into office.

Brian Schatz: "This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20b. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173m for Noem. There is enough money to renovate the WH ballroom. What there isn't enough money for under this Republican government is you."

I’m old enough to remember when Senate Dems were told they should use the nuke option to expand court and they were like, β€œwe don’t want to do that because you can’t come back from it and our republican colleagues are people of moral integrity who wouldn’t do this to us…”

People spend a lot of time wondering why the left is worse at using independent media to control the national narrative.

A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.

If the new tariffs stay in place for multiple years, and are enforced and inflationary, and DOGE continues to cut and fire , we will be in a far worse situation than 2008

Lol, so we've inadvertently declared both the EU and Taiwan as countries. Bravo πŸ‘

I'm sure the PRC is going to love that we're implicitly breaking away from the One China policy while slapping mainland China with a 54% combined tariff /s

Trump just handed Democrats everything they need to flip the mids and get the majorities needed to impeach and convict. Dems shouldn't take it for granted tho. We need better leadership in Senate. And we need a DNC who will throw everything against the wallβ€”fight for EVERY seat! Let's do it to it!
