So Pete Hegseth wants his department to be called the Department of War, he calls his soldiers “war fighters,” brags about “lethality” and “peace through strength but he, #trump, and republicans won’t call what they’re doing in #iran a war? Make it make sense!

Fancy being led into world conflict by such a mob of hateful, reprehensible people. That’s what feels even more devastating this time around. Even in the disaster of the Iraq invasion, while we knew they were lying, they hadn’t been going out of their way to be the most vile, venal criminals.

What did we learn from the Liberal election review? We learned Dutton was unpopular amongst key groups he needed to win. Yet, when Sussan Ley set about trying to (sort of) differentiate Libs from Dutton, a year later they’ve gone back to Dutton take-2 with Taylor. No wonder they tried to bury it! 😳

Man, I see why the Republicans didn’t want the Clintons to testify live on air 😂😂. Two 80-year-olds went in there and dogwalked them lol. The crazy part is, they didn’t even sweat!

Forget USA making Canada the 51st state.

The USA apparently has now become Israel's seventh administrative district.

Trump declared war from his mansion in Florida, four soldiers are dead and the first time trump goes before the cameras at the White House he started talking about his ballroom and drapes.

This man doesn't care.

So let me get this straight…

MAGA didn't want to spend US taxpayer dollars to support Ukraine when it was invaded by Russia but...

They want to spend taxpayer dollars and kill American soldiers for regime change in Iran?

Healthcare in Greenland is publicly funded, free at the point of use, and despite geographical challenges considered very good.

Healthcare costs in the USA are extortionate and responsible for 60% of all US bankruptcies.

So maybe Denmark should be sending hospital ships the other way.

USA hasn't done anything FOR Ukraine, except to cost them more distruction, and loss of life.

Zelensky is right... Without security, they might as well continue fighting. Because it only means Russia will not be held to account, as they are permitted to go without now.

Russia owns 200k war crimes

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.
