When we defeated the Taliban, we took control of Kandahar (December 2001). That was it, we had their capital and as long as we were willing to defend it, there was absolutely no chance they'd take it back. That's winning.
We control 0% of Iran.
Connect the dots
I love the idea that *this* US government, which has been nabbing landscapers and five year olds knows where Iranian sleeper cells are but just hasn’t gotten around to doing anything about it yet.
ICE confirms that the infamous Camp East Montana will NOT be shut down. Instead, they're giving the contract wholly to Amentum, previously the subcontractor for Acquisition Logistics, the tiny VA military contractor which inexplicably got a $1.2 billion contract.

The Department of Justice is gaslighting us every single day. Their “civil rights investigation” of Alex Pretti’s killing by ICE is a sham. So what can we do? Call DOJ to demand a full investigation. youtube.com/shorts/HGnxQ...
ICE enforcement action leads to multi-car crash, standoff at South Burlington [Vermont] building

Democrats offered to fully fund DHS—TSA, FEMA, disaster response—everything except ICE. Republicans rejected every deal and chose to block funding instead.
A Haitian asylum seeker detained by ICE died after being refused timely medical attention for a severe toothache.
At least 40 people have died in ICE custody since Trump took office — a two-decade high.
The monstrous cruelty of Trump's police state knows no bounds.
A 14-year-old girl from a Boston suburb was sadistically used as bait by ICE goons in an attempt to detain her father. He is not a part of her life, her mother is dead and she lives with other family including two US citizen brothers. She was transferred 200 miles away from them to NYC. So cruel.
This is called kidnapping and it’s a crime. Abolish ICE
Smartmatic says it’s being targeted by Justice Dept. to bolster false 2020 claims
The voting machine company asked a judge to dismiss foreign bribery charges filed against it last year, alleging a vindictive and selective prosecution.” WAPO
This is says all you need to know about how little Trump cares for our military.
Imagine how different everything would be had the U.S. enthusiastically embraced renewable energy back when Carter put solar panels on the White House or when James Hansen first testified about climate change before Congress in 1988. For one thing, over 150
Iranian schoolgirls would still be alive.
This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics. It’s the root of all evil in Washington.
Markwayne Mullin is the same dude already under scrutiny for suspicious stock trades.
And he’s supposed to run America’s national security.
• No government security experience
• No law enforcement background
• No intelligence work
• No military service
• Not even a bachelor’s degree
WTF? Putin is reportedly providing surveillance to Iran regarding positions of U.S. targets in the Middle East. Trump is aware of this & says nothing. So, trump is putting our troops in harm’s way by allowing Putin to possibly injure or kill them. Do I have that right? Where is the media coverage?
Remember guys, you can’t afford a gas rig, or a coal mine, or a nuclear power station, but you can afford to put some cheap solar panels on your roof.
That’s why the fossil fuel industry has spent billions trying to kill renewable energy.
The dealer needs to keep you addicted.
We are 10 days into an illegal war costing us $900M a day which has led to the deaths of 7 U.S troops & 1200 Iranians including hundreds of children.
Everything here is far more expensive & we are far less safe. And all of it, all of it… is because Israel told us to.
WATCH — @jamestalarico.bsky.social : “Every dollar we spend bombing people in the Middle East is one we’re not spending here at home. We’re always told we don’t have enough money for schools or healthcare or for veterans, but there’s always enough to bomb people on the other side of the world.”
I can’t believe how stupid everything is
It must be so so so so bad for the Rupert Murdoch owned WSJ to run this
The funniest thing in the world is Donald trump threatening to stop legislating. Oh no more tax cuts for billionaires! Oh well!
20 percent of all oil and gas goes though the strait of Hormuz
Meaning every single gas station charging over $3.50 a gallon is price gouging.
You might not like hearing this, but the Iranian ship was a legitimate military target. But my argument all along has been that blowing it up was more like showing off than anything that made military sense.
Well-treated Iranian POWs would have hurt the regime more than a sunken frigate.
Now feels like a good time to remember that Big Oil is the reason why we're still hooked on dirty, dangerous fossil fuels.
The industry's lies have essentially stolen a generation’s worth of time that we could have used to transition to cleaner, safer energy sources.
It’s time for accountability.
A Noem aide spent $3 million on pickup trucks emblazoned with the ICE name & logo, which ICE agents -- notoriously averse to advertising their presence -- will not drive, so they're just sitting in a lot, useless. The contract went to a Trump donor who owns a regional Chevy dealership.
TPUSA is teaming up with Google and NextEra in both municipal and statewide races in Arizona, in part to control the future of a gigantic, publicly owned water and power utility, the Salt River Project.
Note the coalition here. Masks are coming off at the utility and energy intersection.
