As horrifying as Abu Graib was, no American defended the right of American soldiers to rape prisoners.

The word β€œcould” in the headlines is carrying a lot of weight.

It β€œcould” be anything. We don’t know.

They either didn't know Iran would shut down the Strait of Hormuz or they knew and didn't have a plan.

Either way - just totally clear they don't give a damn about what this war means for hardworking Americans.

No one could’ve predicted this.

Latest polling shows the war in Iran is already unpopular at a historic scale Conflicts usually enjoy broad support at the outset, but public attitudes turn negative as wars drag on. The war in Iran, however, is unique.

β€œAlready unpopular at a historic scale.”

Unsurprising

Streaming 4k is a fools errand tbh.

Now it’s a waste of money too

This was just a momentary distraction tactic.

China can pay nickels on the dollar to waste US equipment and manpower.

It’s the same playbook we’re using in Ukraine. Of course they’re going to do it

Almost like the stupidest possible people are in charge.

Also, the Kurds deserve so much better than being betrayed by Trump twice.

If you didn’t know who these men were, would anyone guess which is a Republican and which is a Democrat?

It’s not about freeing the Iranians. It’s about trump and Netanyahu getting to declare victory and then leave the Iranians to suffer under a new regime nigh-identical to the previous. Same game as Venezuela.

Sad to announce the death of Senator Holden Bloodfeast (118 years old), who reportedly heard that the US has bombed Iran, and instantly crumpled into a pile of empty robes.

Rep. Ilhan Omar: "The president talked about protecting Americans, and I just had to remind him that his administration was responsible for killing two of my constituents."

They’d rather be poor than be outshined by a woman.

Dear American consumers: Trump is going to f*ck you over again with a 10% global import tax β€” just being his feelings got hurt by the big, bad Supreme Court.

What a pathetic loser!

I know a bookstore that has a near complete collection of playboys. You can buy one from your birth month, fun stuff

Nothing about that changes the state and local services they consume.

We can’t run schools for free. Nor fire departments, police departments, or road work.

It’s an absurd idea anyway. Property taxes pay for services everyone consumes or benefits from. That doesn’t stop at 65 or any age.

I read the book, liked it, but had no idea it had been adapted.

Would you recommend?

It’s unfortunate to see how few voices have the courage to stand up to right wing antisemitism

I don’t understand how conservatives expect multibillion dollar industries to make decades-long investments into infrastructure based on policies that change every few weeks
