A year ago, I was willing to accept that some MAGAs were good people who were merely misguided.
But now that Trump has shown us his true colors, anyone who is still MAGA is simply, purely fucking nuts.

Approximately 140 U.S. service members have been wounded in the first 10 days of the war with Iran, according to the Pentagon

Has any man at the very rear of his army *ever* projected such sad main character energy?

It's almost like he wants us to forget he's a draft-dodger who called our soldiers "losers" and "suckers" and plotted illegal wars of the sort he got elected promising to avoid while demanding a peace prize

Long security lines at U.S. airports as DHS funding affects TSA staffing Wait times to get through security hit two hours in New Orleans and over three hours in Houston as TSA staffing took a hit amid the partial government shutdown.

The Republican DHS shutdown is causing MASSIVE delays at airports around the country.

Republicans have to stop playing political games.

It’s time to work with House Democrats to enact commonsense reforms to ICE and reopen the government.

@fetterman.senate.gov please do NOT confirm MarkWayne Mullin as the next DHS chief. He defends ICE fatally shooting citizens, backs expelling US-born kids, objected to 2020 election results.

β€˜A shell of our former self’: How Trump and Musk’s spending cuts are hampering US government readiness amid the Iran war | CNN Politics Government cuts under Trump’s second term weakened U.S. emergency, security, and foreign response capabilities, now under scrutiny amid Middle East conflict.

CNN catalogs some of the many things that Trump defunded or fired before he needed them for his illegal war of choice on Iran:

1) Evac experts at State
2) CT at State
3) Cyber sharing at CISA
4) Disaster response at FEMA
5) CI at FBI

Both proposals comment periods are now closed, so now we wait to see what the FCC decides. But, thanks in part to all of you, we hit in the neighborhood of 1500 comments on each proposal, what PCMag called "a staggering amount." From the bottom of my heart, thank you to everyone who commented.

This is a truly monstrous take. Bibi is war criminal, one taco short of a global annihilation platter. This kind of leader is never an ally.

Judge Matthew Brann rules that "triumvirate" leadership structure of US Atty's Office in NJ is an illegal attempt to evade senate confirmation.

This is the judge who DQ'd Alina Habba, and the opinion comes out swinging.

It was a US strike that killed 165 schoolgirls. Mostly aged 7-12.

While it was likely unintentional, the decision to strike a military target in a densely populated civilian area was not.

Yes, difficult decisions have to be made in war.

I don’t trust this bloodthirsty regime to make good ones.

AOC: The Pentagon has not passed an audit, and they are out here trying to kick people with disabilities off of Medicaid. It is corruption that is stealing from the public coffers β€” and that is the actual waste, fraud, and abuse.

So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion.

That's $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

Thousands of lives lost.

People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

I understand why Putin wants to destroy America, and I can guess why Trump is helping him do it. But I'll never figure out why Congress is letting him get away with it.

So Russia is helping Iran target American troops. Ukraine is offering drone defense.

Guess who Trump NEVER ONCE has EVER criticized?

Correct. Russia

An article describing how a Norwegian immigrant married a US citizen but ICE detailed her and refused her insulin, causing blindness and almost killed her. In between, an ad from the common sense leadership fund lauds the president's "understanding of the art of the deal" and boosts his alleged pro-business agenda

An article describing how a Norwegian immigrant married a US citizen but ICE detailed her and refused her insulin, causing blindness and almost killed her. In between, an ad from the common sense leadership fund lauds the president's "understanding of the art of the deal" and boosts his alleged pro-business agenda

The contrast is ghoulish. A "pro-business" president nearly killing people because cruelty is the point.

ICE Wants to Buy Warehouses for Mass Detention. Communities Are Fighting Back. People across the political spectrum are realizing these federal detention warehouses will harm their communities.

The overdue firing of Kristi Noem will have no bearing on the continued plans for unwanted warehousing of human beings across the country.
The spotlight should focus on these warehouses (de facto concentration camps) during Markwayne Mullin's confirmation hearing.
