Pete Hegseth wants to live in a world in which the US military can drop bombs on scores of children and face no serious media scrutiny for it. His vile claim that he can't wait for David Ellison to run CNN shows he pines for oligarchic control of media.
New from me:

We put an alcoholic rapist in charge of the military and heβs confessing to war crimes from the Pentagon podium.
When we restore democracy, we need to put the people who committed crimes in prison.
Search-and-rescue crews were βflying blindβ trying to rescue survivors from deadly tornadoes that hit the Midwest last week.
Why? Because Kristi Noem hadn't approved FEMAβs $200,000 contract with a tornado-tracking tool.
But she had time to spend $220 million on anti-immigrant ads. Priorities.
βThe clear winner of this war is Putinβ
Must be a coincidence π

YOU WILL NEED A $160 PASSPORT TO VOTE IF TRUMP'S BIG FUGLY SAVE AMERICA ACT PASSES!
It's a poll tax!
In America, you shouldn't have to pay $160 in order to vote!
ALSO, obtaining a passport CAN TAKE MONTHS!
This unprecedented media consolidation will disrupt the TV & film industry and threaten our free speech and free press. A family of billionaires with a political agenda should not control most of our news and entertainment sources.

I had an amazing time today at the Women's March in North Charleston!
We celebrated women, our strength, our passion and our unity.
We heard from several candidates including @ashleypainter.bsky.social ,
@kelly-hough.bsky.social & @rustycletus.bsky.social .
An amazing day all the way around!
JD Vance in 2024: "Our interest very much is in not going to war with Iran. It would be a huge distraction of resources. It would be massively expensive to our country"
Trumpβs own business interests are now coming under fire from Iran. Itβs likely the bulk of the Trump wealth is now tied to one Middle Eastern royal family or anotherβQatar, UAE, Saudi, etc.
So: How will he balance whatβs good for the US vs. his business partners?

#ICELawlessness is absolutely horrific.
Pure cruelty & savagery.
Spainβs Prime Minister Pedro SΓ‘nchez on Iran:
βRemember that one can be against a hateful regime, as is the case with the Iranian regime, as is the whole of Spanish society, and at the same time be against an unjustified, dangerous military intervention outside of international law.β

A few weeks ago, I posted about Hanne Engan a woman with diabetes who almost died of neglect & mistreatment while being wrongly detained in one of Trump's ICE torture concentration camps.
This isn't a one off. Dozens of people have died. People are being tortured, even babies!

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."
-Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953
We only had the one. He was charming.
Look what showed up at the protest today. MAGA looks just like you expected it to.
"The attack came despite US intelligence assessments that Iran was unlikely to pose an immediate threat to the US mainland within the next decade."
So why do it?
"A weeks-long lobbying effort by Israel and Saudi Arabia..."
Ah. Not just weak, but cheap, too.
