Slotkin: "If Russia is helping to kill US forces, we have crossed a rubicon. We have to take decisive action on that. Instead, we're giving them breaks on oil. They're making a ton of money."
Another word you might use for it is "looting".
"This appears to be the first administration to take such widespread advantage of taxpayer-funded military housing to accommodate political appointees who do not have a direct connection to the military..."

I keep seeing people ask about the 25th Amendment.
Guys. His entire Cabinet is walking around in shoes that donβt fit because theyβre scared to take them off.
The 25th is never happening.
This is real life.
After losing war that he started for no reason, President Trump is optimistic that he can make the Iranians sign a nuclear deal almost as good as the one he tore up
Why are you still eating shitty food as an adult?!

Inspired by some of the International Womenβs Day posts circulated on Sunday, Iβve put together a list of 36 excellent films directed by women (one per director) - all in languages other than English.
Recommendations welcome, esp. for underrepresented regions! #FilmSky #IWD #Films

Evening from the booth.
Zalindiβs lights are still on, but the cityβs slowed a notch.
Weβre spinning a few wax for drivers, dishwashers, thinkersβ
the ones who think a little longer than the day crowd.
Funny thing about Ink Radio.
We never know whoβs out thereβ¦
but somehow the right song reaches
5/ And on the Strait of Hormuz, they had NO PLAN. I can't go into more detail about how Iran gums up the Strait, but suffice it say, right now, they don't know how to get it safely back open.
Which is unforgiveable, because this part of the disaster was 100% foreseeable.
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:
McCain was not part of this mix. I distinctly remember him defending Obama from a gop voter.
Not a huge McCain fan but he did stand up.
I wish I could say I was surprised

Rep. Ronny Jackson: "There's a lot of terror attacks that happen around this country that people don't even know about because people in DHS stop them"
Thereβs never enough money for schools or healthcare or veterans.
But thereβs always enough money to bomb people on the other side of the world.
We can support the democracy movement in Iran without bombing innocent schoolchildren and sending our American troops off to die.
πΊπ¦βοΈπΊπΈ Last August, Ukraine offered the U.S. its battle-tested technology for intercepting Shaheds and proposed joint production, - Axios
Trump administration dismissed the offer at the time, but after Iranian drone attacks in the current conflict, the U.S. has now asked Ukraine for anti-drone help.
Gaza would like a word . . .
Too late.
So we went to war w Iran over assassination plots? Not bc of nuclear weapons? Or threats to Israel?
goddamn is this a breath of fresh air after Allred 2024

NEW: The Russian military simply does not have the capacity to overrun Ukrainian defenses that Putin constantly claims. Latest Assessment β¬οΈ(
Ukrainian forces are successfully counterattacking not only in the Oleksandrivka and Hulyaipole directions but also in western Zaporizhia Oblast.
Are we still looking for waste, fraud, and abuse? I think I found some.
When a US missile killed 160 children, president shits-a-lot claimed Iran stole the missile and fired at the school. When asked why he was the only one making this claim, he said "because I just don't know enough about it".
Go ahead. See if you can make this make sense.

Alright⦠stay with me a min.
Late β70s. A song cut. About the singerβs man only coming βround when it suits him. Nothing special.
But club DJs start flipping the wax over.
And women on the floor?
They start singing it back⦠louder than the speakers.
Sometimes the B-side becomes the sermon.
Given Trump's illegal war that is devastating the Middle East and pushing up energy bills, Keir Starmer should advise the King to call off Aprilβs state visit to the US.
A state visit should not be given to someone who repeatedly insults and damages our country.
Schlossberg: If this becomes the new normal and the president is able to trademark Americaβs birthday and issue his own currency while weakening the dollar, having gold skyrocket, and increasing prices on every commodity and input cost in our economy, weβre getting screwed and heβs getting rich.
