NBC’s Richard Engel: “The White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”
If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected — young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! — and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.
Texans pay MORE for gas than they did a week ago. 70 cents more per gallon. In ONE week. Trump started a war with Iran and YOU are footing the bill at the pump.

Thought I would have gotten used to it by now, but I’m still grappling with the realization of just how stupid the men running this country are.
Also known as "using insider knowledge for war profiteering."
The SAVE Act is a major attack on voting rights. It is not a genuine voter ID reform, but rather an attempt to suppress turnout in future elections.
Wouldn’t it be good if every country in the world could ignore and ostracise The United States of America 🇺🇸 until Donald Trump presidency is over and hopefully the American electorate could get their shit together and vote in a decent president next time.
The bottom line is Trump sacrificed 8 American lives (& counting) and more than 1,000 Iranian lives (& counting) for nothing. He hurt the US & global economies, destabilized the Middle East, & will pull out with the same Iranian regime in power. There's no silver lining.
A senseless, criminal waste

the mantis shrimp has 16 types of color receptors.
humans have 3.
we see roughly 10 million colors and think that's impressive.
the mantis shrimp is sitting there processing a visual reality so hyperchromatic that scientists genuinely aren't sure what it's like to be one.

I heard the audio. He said it.
Lord. What have y'all done.

Truly unbelievable stuff. Just up there shamelessly lying his ass off
The way the USA is attacking Iran, you'd think they have the hard copies of the Epstein files!
Not trying to be hyperbolic, I fear we are on the cusp of a 9/11 type catastrophe that this regime is unwilling and unable to protect us from.
Good read!

I went a bit overboard taking #PHOTOS of the last night's #Sahara sunset! So, here's another ... It was lovely of the egret to come out for a little night fishing, exactly as I started taking snaps. I did have a heck of a time keeping all those horizontals straight tho! #NatureIsMagic #photographs
I think this is a good idea, no new bills until the Moron is out. Limit the damage.

I want ICE agents to be afraid. I want them to run and hide from the justice that will come when this regime ends. And I will personally advocate for their life sentences.
I’m of the same opinion. Rump, Bondi, Lutnick, etc appear, by their actions and words, and the Epstein revelations, and Mueller report, to be Russian assets. It’s extremely clear. Will people see it?
Chris Murphy: "I think it's likely the United States that carried out this attack on this school. I think it's unforgivable under any circumstances, but the fact this was one of our first targeting decisions speaks to the incompetence of our leadership at the Dept of Defense."
Unemployment is up to 4.4% after losing 92,000 jobs in February.
Are we great again yet?

Considering he has failed in almost every endeavor he has initiated, it seems likely he will fail at the presidency too. As Rick Wilson says, everything Trump touches dies. I don’t believe we will recover as one country. The American domination of world affairs is over; a new world order is coming.
Well then wtf😡
