It's fascion
I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.
I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.
1/ Here's what I can share:
When you fire experienced people who know what the fuck they're doing & replace them with inept & incompetent bootlickers than disastrous outcomes like this are going to occur. Absolutely tragic what we did to that school & those girls & teachers. We will be living with the repercussions for decades

Today, Pete Hegseth banished photographers from the Pentagon, reacting to what Hegseth considered an unflattering photograph.
As a reminder, he looks like this:
WASHINGTON: Despite republicansโ best efforts, including a 24 hour filibuster-style debate โ โthe state house approved a levy on incomes over $1 millionโฆ pays for free breakfast & lunch for k-12 studentsโฆโ

Itโs almost like heโs still the same piece of shit who went all vigilante on his neighbors.
Every Democratic Senator But Fetterman Signs Call for Probe of Iran School Massacre
โMassive civilian casualty incidents like the attack in Minab are not only detrimental to the Iranian people, but they also undermine US national security interests."
- Senate Democratic Caucus
Ossoff: "The president appears increasingly to have lost touch with reality. That is deeply concerning when you have a a cabinet much more concerned with winning his favor than giving good advice & the nation now plunged into war. It speaks to the necessity of winning these midterms in a landslide."
After being found in the Epstein files, this Russian politician came down with a sudden case of the blues and Epsteinโed himself with a Luger pistol. These new American oligarchs need to pay attention as they may be Epsteinโed, too.

If you lost your job because of DOGE, this will enrage you.
They built a whole-ass crusade around โDEI,โ then sent a staffer into a deposition who couldnโt even define it.
Justin Foxโs and his assignment was to help flag grants for elimination based on a term he struggled to explain under oath. ๐ฅด
Excellent reporting here by @raphae.li about a hacker who breached an FBI server, apparently without knowing it was the FBI, and accessed the Epstein files. The hacker allegedly threatened to report the server's owner TO THE FBI bc of disgust over CSAM on the server, www.reuters.com/world/us/for...
IT canโt happen soon enough.

I donโt think unconditional surrender is imminent.

Do not let Trump or Hegseth use the convenient excuse of "outdated data" so easily. A man who will rape children in his own country will not bat an eyelash to murder them in another. Investigate this incident to the ends of the earth.
We donโt have outdated data. I mean, the data โleakedโ (or given) to russia, that russia then gave to Iran so they could target our bases, that seemed pretty current. Also, that social security data that DOGE leaked seemed pretty fresh.
๐ฎ๐ท๐ฆ๐ช A few hours ago, Iran once again struck a high-rise hotel building in Dubai with a Shahed-type kamikaze drone.
The unmanned aerial vehicle flew into one of the floors of the building and detonated. Information about possible casualties is currently unknown.
Yes. I want to bang my head into a wall. If not to self-soothe, then at least until Iโm dumb enough not to notice or care.
I *just* posted this same thought.๐คฃ
We knew this on Feb 28. Why are we pretending weโre discovering it on March 11? I feel like Iโm in the movie โGroundhog Dayโ. This administration is so corrupt that weโre forced to deal with 2 news stories for everything. The first story when the thing happens and the second one when they admit it.
Yup. No one ever hid it. The stories just keep coming and nothing ever happens.
In my case itโs just mild and occasional insomnia.
