So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.
That's roughly $1 billion per day.
$41,666,667 per hour.
$11,574 per second.
People do not want this.
They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

"It is fraud" -- Neguse nails Kristi Noem for lying during her testimony yesterday when she told the Senate that DHS's $220m ad campaign starring her "went out to a competitive bid" (it did not), and tells her "I think there's gonna be accountability" (1/2)

@blessedtxnavyvet.bsky.social Without using physical characteristics, how do you judge someone's ability to lead? Posting just because I"m curious about different perspectives.

Sounds great in theory but this is a very privileged take, most of us can't afford to quit our jobs or take trips because we struggle just to pay our living expenses, we have no money for savings, our safety net has holes, and private charity is out of funds for help with bills.

Anyone for a real dagger in the heart of MAGA, how about a AOC-Rand Paul ticket for 2028, pretty sure they would defeat Vance or whoever MAGA is backing, pretty sure that most of the minor parties and many independents would get onboard?

This is the guy they killed. His face radiates kindness and they are calling him a terrorist.

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

The glue that bonds the cognitive dissonance together is fear. These are fearful people. They fear others, they fear change, they fear the world.
They crave "strong" leaders who tell them what to do and think. They'll gladly trade their freedom for perceived certainty and comfort.

"A man has been federally shot in Minneapolis."
This is what happens when you hire white boys whose only experience in life is playing video games in their mother’s basement. There are no statute of limitations for kidnapping & murder. There will be accountability

Correct. It was never about “the government,” it was about right-wing white nationalist politics.
