Since I don’t work in the news business, maybe someone can educate me
When the Secretary of Defense tells news organizations what they should write and how they should cover the news, is that propaganda
Because to the uninitiated user, it sure seems like it
Murphy: I have great sympathy for our soldiers and our military leaders they are being given directions by a senile old man who is losing his mind. And so it's no surprise that this war is going horribly
WTF! This is deliberate misogyny: using AI to suppress the economic power of educated women bc they vote Democratic while boosting working-class men in jobs AI can't easily replace. It's misogyny, disturbing, & fascist! We see it & are calling it out. None of us, including men should stand for it!
This might be the greatest split-screen ever broadcast.
They’ll play this in museums in future.
(🎥 LCI 🇫🇷)
They have the wrong guys in charge
Strongmen, like Trump, live in constant fear of being held accountable — which is why all of us should be concerned about what they might do to the upcoming midterms.
The best thing we can all do is pay attention, call them out for what they’re doing, & turn out in huge numbers in November.
People are just assets to use and discard
EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war.
The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been “inundated” with more than 110 complaints.
One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesus…
The US and Iran have obviously not been at war for 47 years, as regime propagandists tell us. What has been going on for 47 years is the Saudi-Iranian regional proxy war. So the propaganda defines us as a Saudi proxy state.
A navy torpedo detonates under the target, lifts it out of the water and cracks the hull. The people who aren’t thrown overboard by the blast are knocked unconscious and buried alive in their compartments when the ship sinks. We did that to 141 people today for no reason.
It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.
Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.
And that’s how congressional hearings are supposed to work.
Hopefully there will be some fraud charges to go with it.
But way to shit your pants and change your shirt, Trump.
Justice for Cricket!!
She needs to vacate the Coast Guard home she planted herself in, NOW please and thank you.
Noem's been fired. Get a better look at Markwayne Mullin, the bully/pedophile/felon’s choice to take the helm at DHS.
Trading a headache for an upset stomach.
When US foreign policy is in the hands of the dumbest American.
So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.
That's roughly $1 billion per day.
$41,666,667 per hour.
$11,574 per second.
People do not 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.
The next Forever War is here.
"The CIA is working to arm Kurdish forces with the aim of fomenting a popular uprising in Iran, multiple people familiar with the plan told CNN."
REPORTER: Yesterday you told us Israel was going to strike Iran and that's why we needed to get involved. But today the president said Iran--
RUBIO: No. Were you there yesterday?
REPORTER: Yes. I asked the question
Yes, Thom Tillis is a Republican. But must we always wait 'til a Republican member of congress has announced their retirement before we get this same level of objectivity and 'moral courage'?
Just a random reminder that over 50 members of Congress collectively own millions of dollars in defense contractor stocks.
They stand to personally profit from wars that enrich these contractors.
Make no mistake, this is legalized corruption.
Watch how they vote this week.
So this excuse isn’t going to work anymore.
after absolutely eviscerating Kristi Noem and calling for her resignation, Tillis is applauded. He thens threatens to hold up nominees if she doesn't stop stonewalling him. My God.
FYI Markwayne Mullin is not
A war veteran and never served
Q: Was there a plan in place to evacuate Americans before the attack?
MARCO RUBIO: That's the plan we're trying to carry out. The problem is airspace closures.
On day 3 of the Iran war, U.S travelers can expect to see higher prices at the pump while travel stocks slump.
Seems like the media should at least express some curiosity about this.

I need to stress something here:
The US destroying Iran’s navy is about as impressive as prime Michael Jordan dunking on a toddler.
I know the administration needs something to brag about, but this outcome was literally never in question.
Today was an important day for the opposition movement. The law firms that stood up against Donald Trump threats won.
Those that capitulated and collaborated with Trump will need to explain to their families, clients and future generations why when democracy was at stake they were such cowards.
