❗️Thanks to the efforts of German Defense Minister Pistorius, Ukraine will be able to receive a package of 35 PAC-3 missiles for the Patriot system in the coming weeks — Spiegel
The publication reports that he managed to locate these missiles in the stockpiles of allies and secure their allocation.
❗️🇺🇦Missile strike on a concentration of 🇷🇺Russian personnel and vehicles in the Oleksandrivka direction
As a result of the strike, 10 Russian servicemen were eliminated, along with 2 automobiles and 3 quad bikes that the enemy was using for logistical purposes.
So, what exactly is “the mission,” and how do you determine whether it’s been accomplished? Or will that be based on a “feeling,” too?🙄
Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."
"Fear is often a signpost that we’re standing at the edge of something important. And on the other side of fear is often the next breakthrough—increased confidence, more courage, another life adventure accomplished." lnk.thebulwark.com/4b0Y0SW
Bush on why he quit golf during the war: “I didn’t want some mom whose son may have died to see the commander-in-chief playing golf. I owe it to the families to be in solidarity as best I can. And I think playing golf during a war sends the wrong signal.”
Senile Satan: 👇
The US military achieved every objective it set when it went to war in Iraq in 2003. And yet, more than 20 years later Iraq is still an authoritarian state.
The country where the US spent $2 trillion & 4488 American lives to remake is, by any reasonable measure, within the sphere of Iran’s influenc
@markhertling.bsky.social: “The president has said several times we want leaders to step up. You're not going to get a whole lot of leaders to step up after their cities have been destroyed. Their leaders who have stepped up in the past have been killed."
NEW: Ohio Democrats said they are “exploring all options to fight back against” Secretary of State Frank LaRose’s “unacceptable” decision to hand over the sensitive voter data of nearly 8 million Ohioans to the DOJ.
So Dumpy and Drunky will put American troops on the ground in Iran without a clear objective to be accomplished while Russia and China help Iran with intelligence and other support. What could possibly be wrong (Vietnam) with (Iraq) that? (Afghanistan)!
Blumenthal after getting briefed on Iran: "We seem to be on a path toward deploying American troops on the ground in Iran to accomplish any of the potential objectives here. There's also the specter of active Russian aid to Iran putting in danger American lives ... China also may be assisting Iran"
Public backing for Trump’s Iran airstrikes is far weaker than historical support for U.S. military interventions.
Attacking traditional institutions of higher ed while making it easier for for-profit institutions to return to the days of burdening students with debt and not-particularly-valuable degrees. Cool, cool, cool.
Policy experts say new SNAP changes don't address the challenges faced by single parents. They also argue that losing food assistance will only create more barriers for struggling families. n.pr/40Zw63G
NEW: TransUnion and Experian, two of the three major credit bureaus, have started dismissing a larger share of consumer complaints without help since the Trump administration began dismantling the CFPB.

“Saudi Arabia is consistently ranked among the lowest globally for human rights, with Freedom House classifying it in the "worst of the worst" category due to severe restrictions on political and civil liberties. It is often described as one of the world's most authoritarian regimes”
This is so unbelievable I had to fact check it to make sure it was real. Sadly it is. More distraction from releasing the #EpsteinFiles I’m sure. I’m also sure he actually wants this and thinks he deserves it. To be clear. Americans won’t ever sit at attention when he speaks. #pinks #sheshed /1
I worked for Brown for five years after he left the Carter Administration. Probably the smartest person I’ve ever known but socially rather uncomfortable. Almost shy. After five years if I got on the elevator in the morning and he gave me a grunt, it was a good day.🫤
“The American military is tremendous. It is the greatest in the world.”
I applaud the members of our military and we have very expensive technology.
But organizations are only as good as their leaders, and we have some dumb people running our military. It shows.
Repost if you agree #BlueCrew
For the vast majority of Americans war IS a video game and the cost of war is not something they will personally deal with except when they fill their gas tank.😏
Unreal but it’s happening.
I will never forgive the people who voted for this or any Republican.
We are living in a nightmare. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
Eric Trump and Donald Trump, Jr. are acquiring a drone company that is seeking to meet Pentagon demand after Trump banned the use of Chinese drones.
We’re barely a week into Trump’s war and already his family has found a way to cash in.
Everything is for sale.
That sound you are *not* hearing is Donald Trump rebuking his pal Vladimir Putin for providing Iran with specific locations of American troops to kill them.
Instead, Donald is *easing* sanctions on Russia.
He is despicable.
Q: You said the war is 'very complete.' But your defense secretary says 'this is just the beginning.' So which is it?
TRUMP: You could say both
Things that never happened and things that were never said to Dumpy.😏
Guessing her look is saying, "But Mr. Epstein, I bit it because he put his little thing in my mouth!"

Trump signed an EO benefitting Bayer, the makers of cancer-linked weedkiller Roundup and deadly munitions component white phosphorus.
It came after Bayer hired top Trumpworld lobbyist Brian Ballard and spent over $9M last year on federal lobbying.
"Drain the swamp."
