Pentagon bars press photographers over β€˜unflattering’ Hegseth photos Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s staff took issue with photos taken in a rare briefing last week and decided to shut out press photographers from two subsequent news conferences.

All press should consider this an invitation to sift through their archives for the most unflattering Hegseth photos they can find. It should be pretty easy.

I'm not a military strategist but it seems less than ideal if we have to spend about a thousand times more to shoot down one of their drones down than they cost to build.

Chris Murphy: "I Just came from a two hour, closed door classified briefing on the war. It just confirmed to me it's totally incoherent. We are not gonna be able to achieve any of our stated objectives ... this is a disaster of epic proportions, a 10 day debacle"

This is the same level of stupidity and ignorance that is currently judging exhibits at the Smithsonian and National Park Service.

An excursion is a pleasure trip. I think the term he's looking for is INcursion, but I wouldn't put it past these guys to take pleasure in killing schoolgirls and civilians.

As we mark the 61st anniversary of Bloody Sunday, I’m thinking of my friend and American hero John Lewis.

This weekend’s US clock change is a problem, and there’s a deep divide on how to fix it This is the weekend when clocks move ahead, causing angst, lost sleep and health issues for many. Over the last decade, at least 19 states have passed laws to let them stay in daylight saving time if ...

A lot of nonsense here. It's not as if (1) the US is the only country that shifts its clocks and (2) there aren't countries where sunrise at 9 am during winter and 4 am during summer isn't routine. The real problem is the jarring shift DST causes the adapting body.

I certainly hope that when rule of law is restored, she is prosecuted along with all the rest of the Cabinet. That she was removed doesn't count.

Watching the Reverend Jesse Jackson's memorial service & I just have to say that you have to be obstinately, willfully, ignorant of the Black Church to ask the question that Ezra Klein asked. You have to literally not see Black Americans, & Klein never has, to ask this question.

We can pray; but I admit to a good deal of cynicism on that count. If it's harder for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven than for a camel to get through the eye of a needle, I think it's harder for the extreme right wing religious than for the rich man! (But for God, nothing is impossible.)

To clarify, Jesus said, "Blessed are the peacemakers," scolded a disciple for taking the sword to one of those arresting him, and in depicting the Final Judgment, suggested a group with very GOP-like characteristics would go straight to hell.

Basic translations of MAGAese to English:

"politically correct" β†’ "moral"
"woke" β†’ "decent, respectful, honest"
"law and order" β†’ "lock up Democrats"
"America" β†’ "white, male-dominated, abusive"
