Israeli citizens crying about being attacked by Hezbollah and the Iranians is peak hypocrisy. All because Netanyahu wants to delay his criminal corruption trial.
I have nothing to add here. Yes, it’s that bad.
If you look at everything Trump does as an attempt to enrich and benefit oil companies it all makes sense - from his cozying up with Putin, his attacks on EVs and alternate energy, invading VZ and Iran, lifting of pollution regulations, his appointment of Tillerson as SOS in his first admin.
“So damaged is the department’s reputation for truth-telling at this point, one judge noted despairingly, that ‘the court is left with little confidence’ that government lawyers ‘can be trusted to tell the truth about anything.’ ”

“The clear winner of this war is Putin”
Must be a coincidence 🙃

McGowan: You're saying 46 Americans died, so we should attack this country. Here at home, 68,000 Americans die a year because they don't have health insurance. So, if we're going to spend billions of dollars on something…
That’s the only people who can and do.
Improper use of the word “humbling”- you may be flattered, proud, gratified, but not “humbled” by getting quoted in publications. The only way that would make sense is if your quotes were so dumb that people were mocking you- that would be “humbling”

The Senate must reject this bill.
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 so f*ked.
Iran controls the world's most critical energy chokepoint, and Russia can now sell their own oil freely AND at a premium. This regime and war is a disaster on all fronts.
