Of course it is only Democrats that disrespect "The Troops". Simple con artists and grifters now own the GOP.
Read this. This is God Damn important.
with govt insiders betting on nuclear war they've got the potential to become a serious threat to the future of humanity tbh
In other words, the short term will be an absolute shit show, and I hope your viewers can appreciate that all their problems are caused by someone else.
Solidarity with @kschake.bsky.social. The US military gains nothing from this systematic banning of scholars. It snacks of fear of facts- another sign that there is a design of ideological indoctrination.

For those of you wondering why all the nerds are pouring one out for this Habermas dude and wondering why he was so important. If you've ever heard or used the terms "public sphere" and "private sphere," you are using Habermas terms.
Trump claimed yesterday that he doesnβt need Ukraine (spoiler alert: he does), but other countries have requested Ukrainian assistance in building up drone systems, both with offensive and defensive capabilities. The latest requests have come from Japan and Israel.
These messages, which only came to light through FOIA requests, are deeply disturbingβand a serious betrayal of public trust.
They include veiled threats toward protesters, crude jokes about "shithole countries,β and quips about βpissing off the libs.β
This is the toxic culture DHS has created.
To put this in language that members of this administration can understand: Pete Hegseth is scared of a girl.
There's a hauntingly beautiful irony in these morons thinking that carefully crafted American hegemony was actually weak and woke, and they would be the ones who would do Power and Dominance properly, and immediately bringing everything crashing down
Sending LOVE to our friend & hero Jello Biafra, pictured here w/our own Spit Stix. This was taken in SF in April of 2018, @ Orphan Andy's restaurant. Last year, Biafra appeared in the video for our song 'The Maker' (which is on his Alternative Tentacles YouTube channel). @alternativetent.bsky.social
I was just disinvited from the Air War College where Iβd been asked to lecture on my book, which is a history of U.S. civil-military relations.
I cannot adequately explain how fucked up the World Cup situation is wihen the president of a host nation *threatens the safety* of one of the participants (Iran).
The USA should be removed as a host nation and if it's not, the games shoud be boycotted and ANYONE WITH A MORAL CENTER should see that.
so cool how he was warmly welcomed at a semafor event two weeks ago
His whole life, Trump has always had someone else around to bail him out of the messes he creates: his father, Allen Weisselberg, the "adults in the room" in his first term. Now all those protectors are gone and he is openly begging for someone to save him from his own folly.
Inside the Department of War are two wolves:
"We've shut down the Colleges of War because book learnings are woke, gay, and irrelevant to war fighting."
"How come no one told us the Strait is important, there are different kinds of Kurds, Iran is big, and air power historically doesn't win wars?"
The two DBs who voted Republican
"I ASSUMED the US Military had an active plan to open the Strait." How can people who are paid to understand geopolitics be so bafflingly naive?

Just so we're all clear, this is a war crime and would be punishable by life or death under U.S. law.

The Strait of Hormuz is perfectly safe...

Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning:
Denial of quarterβeven the declaration of no quarterβis a war crime.
And recognized as such by the US Government.

I have met a lot of people recently who have convinced themselves that antisemitism is exaggerated and I really don't understand what toxic media a person must swim in to think that just eight years after Pittsburgh
The boon for Russian oil revenues β essential to its war effort β came after The Washington Post, CNN and The New York Times reported that Russia is providing Iran with intelligence to target American military aircraft and naval vessels via sophisticated satellite imagery.
PokΓ©mon Go has a huge cloud of photogtammetry from in-game "Field Research" quests (go film something & upload it with gps tags). Now Niantic sells that data on the open market. Not quite Palantir levels of Aneristic cabbage-ry, but we certainly live in **interesting times**.
