Schatz: We don’t know for sure, but the likely bombing of an elementary school with one of our Tomahawk missiles is not a one-off mistake. It is the result of a change in policy so that the United States has way looser rules of engagement — way more tolerance for civilian harm.
Chris Murphy: "I Just came from a two hour, closed door classified briefing on the war. It just confirmed to me it's totally incoherent. We are not gonna be able to achieve any of our stated objectives ... this is a disaster of epic proportions, a 10 day debacle"
This race isn’t over.
Northwest Georgia showed up in a BIG way, and now we head to a runoff.
Momentum is real. The coalition is growing.
Let’s finish what we started.
On to the runoff. #GA14
Since I wasn’t clear in my last post, lemme try again:
WOW. A democrat got enough votes to force a runoff in this very red district. That it’s even close is bananas. This is MTGs old seat.
WATCH — @warnock.senate.gov : “Trump has attacked 7 countries in the first year of his presidency, more than any president in the modern era.”

QUINTANILLA: Do we think the Russians have shared intel about US military assets, and if so, why would we be giving waivers on oil sanctions?
WITKOFF: I can tell you that on the call with POTUS, the Russians said they have not been sharing. That's what they said. We can take them at their word.
They have no problem spending a billion dollars a day on war, but fight for every penny when it comes to caring for Veterans.
BREAKING: As many as 150 U.S. troops have been wounded in the war with Iran, according to sources familiar—far higher than the Pentagon’s publicly disclosed figure of just 8 seriously wounded troops. The true toll of this war is already far worse than the public has been told. (Reuters)
Gorgeous!

Ukraine helps us
Russia helps Iran
Just making sure everyone is getting this
Another lie to justify his stupid and illegal war.
NBC’s Richard Engel: “The White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”
New in PN: The bombing of Iranian children is an unforgivable crime
"American disinterest in the lives of people abroad is a resource politicians use to justify cynical wars. It's hard to see on what moral grounds we claim a right to decide the fate of those about whom we clearly care so little."
This seems pretty bad for the environment.
City officials in Corpus Christi, Texas, expect to reach a “water emergency” within months and run out of water next year. That would halt jet fuel deliveries to airports, hike gas prices “and trigger a local economic disaster without precedent.”

the president has no idea what he has set in motion. none.

Heartbreaking scenes of an iconic building in Glasgow engulfed in flames. A horrible hit for local businesses, the people of Glasgow, and for our city's history.
Awful... 🙏
"A woman who claims she was abused as a minor by both Epstein and Trump has given the FBI vivid accounts that include aspects of her life corroborated by the The Post and Courier through public records ... she claimed Trump forced her to commit a sex act on him sometime around 1984."

Holy shit. Crude oil futures going nuts tonight.

Here are some nice mushrooms
This is BAD...impeach this bastard
I feel like it should be bigger news that Trump is now openly considering a military draft. Young men haven't been called up for a draft since 1972. Not during the Gulf War. Not during Iraq or Afghanistan. He received five draft deferments but is now open to drafting your kids.
WH press secretary Karoline Leavitt tells Fox News that a military draft is on the table.
I demand UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER of the Epstein Files—and then your title of "President of the United States," and your liberty to walk freely in public.
That would be GREAT & ACCEPTABLE.
Chris Murphy: "I think it's likely the United States that carried out this attack on this school. I think it's unforgivable under any circumstances, but the fact this was one of our first targeting decisions speaks to the incompetence of our leadership at the Dept of Defense."
Wow -- as first spotted by @BadFoxGraphics on X, Fox & Friends this morning used *old footage of a previous dignified transfer* to mislead their audience about the fact that Trump wore a baseball cap during the one yesterday
