Nevertheless María Persisted

After a series of fatal strikes involving civilians in Iraq and Afghanistan, Congress directed the Pentagon to reduce civilian casualties as part of a 2019 law. During the Biden administration, the Defense Department created the Civilian Harm Mitigation and Response initiative. The civilian mitigation teams – cut by 90% by Hegseth – work with military commanders on target planning, and making sure that targets are actually military sites. The teams help come up with "no strike" lists, including religious and cultural sites and schools

I knew that the Department of War shot a missile into a school & killed 175 civilians, mostly children.

This is learned today:

Secretary of War Hegseth had cut the teams assigned to prevent such tragedies by 90%.

Yes. Something has been “off” since COVID.

We learned to put people in the “it’s alright if they fall by the wayside” category.

We started with the disabled and elderly, and we’ve reached bombing kids “over there”.

There’s still a way to go before the bottom too.

Most people don't realize how much of the U.S. immigration detention system is run by private companies and how much money is involved. 🧵

So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right

Who put this MFer in charge of the world?

Murphy: "Literally in my other ear I'm listening to Ted Cruz on another network explain why this mission is so essential to destroy the nuclear program. I may have to walk over there and tell him the admin is now briefing that getting rid of the nuclear program has nothing to do with this mission."

"The U.S. spent 20 years and trillions of dollars replacing the Taliban with the Taliban. Trump replaced Ayatollah Khamenei with Ayatollah Khamenei in just 9 days. The most efficient U.S. president ever." Iranian Political Analyst Ali Alizadeh

KENNEDY: You said, 'Republicans think can troll their way to ethnic cleansing.' Did I read that correctly?

BIER: DHS tweeted for 100m deportations. That would be ethnic cleansing!

K: You don't think it's hyperbolic?

B: I think advocating 100m deportations is ethnic cleansing. Yes. Your time is up

Or sadism.

The U.S. military disputed President Donald Trump's claims about an airstrike that killed at least 175 people at an Iranian elementary school.

This is what a war of choice looks like.

Oil fires flooding a city while the world watches in horror.

Trump didn’t inherit this war.
He chose it.

And now the consequences are burning for everyone to see. This is what "America Last" looks like.

I just want to make sure that everyone knows Trump's war of choice in Iran is costing us $900 million a day according to the latest figures

Not $900 a day, not $9,000 a day, not $90,000 a day, not $900,000 a day, not $9 million a day, not $90 million a day

$900 million a day

A number of European countries will likely break their sanctions on Russia and buy oil from them as a result of US and Israel’s actions in Iran that have closed off oil shipments. This will be a serious blow to Ukraine; the longer the US and Israel illegal war lasts the stronger Russia can become.

The UN nuclear watchdog's governing body passed a resolution on Thursday -- overcoming US opposition -- expressing concern over "repeated and intensified attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure" posing a "threat to nuclear safety", according to diplomatic sources.

New Human Rights Watch report finds that the US Israel massacre of an elementary school in southern Iran has to be investigated as a war crime. The US and Israel had sufficient information and intel to know whether it was a school or not.

As though we needed any more evidence that Fox "News" is a mendacious propaganda machine and not remotely a serious journalistic enterprise.

Still, this is pretty astounding.

Analysis Suggests School Was Hit Amid U.S. Strikes on Iranian Naval Base

U.S. forces likely bombed an Iranian elementary school on Feb. 28 during an operation targeting a nearby military base, a New York Times analysis suggests. It is the deadliest known episode of civilian casualties since the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran — and no side has yet taken responsibility.

Babies with Covid are 7.25 times more likely to die than babies with RSV.

And that’s only death—never mind the chronic impact that can result.

Keep newborns out of public places, if you possibly can—and buy a HEPA filter for your daycare!

A Jan. 6 rioter pardoned by Trump was sentenced to life in prison for child sex abuse Since receiving presidential pardons, dozens of former Capitol rioters have gotten into more legal trouble. In Florida, Andrew Paul Johnson was sentenced to life in prison for child sex abuse.

Non-citizens voting in federal elections is already illegal and extremely rare.

So what’s the SAVE Act really about?

Forcing millions of citizens to dig up passports or birth certificates just to register to vote.

Replacing one corrupt incompetent with another is not really a win. Nor is transferring her to yet another made up department that will allow her vindictive nature to thrive and permit her to continue to miss-spend a ton of taxpayer funds, instead of removing her completely.

Ladies and gentlemen, here’s our next secretary of homeland security - watch til the end.

McGovern: How the hell is this America first? You guys broke your top campaign promise. Good luck with that. I hope the defense contractor money was worth it. Shame on you all. The mask is off. You're all just a bunch of pathetic Neocon Warmongers.

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.

Nobody hates living veterans more than Republicans. Dead veterans they can exploit in videos. But living veterans with opinions and medical needs are literally offensive to conservatives.

Attorney General Pam Bondi has ended restrictions that barred political appointees at the Justice Department from participating in political activities, according to a memo seen by NBC. The rules were originally put in place to avoid even the appearance of political influence, prohibiting those
