Quick note for evangelicals: war in the Middle East doesn't trigger the second coming.

If you think he cares about gas prices, housing costs, home electricity costs, inflation, no jobs, troops getting killed, grocery prices, health care costs, or anything else that would improve the lives of most Americans, you are wrong.

Donald Trump is notorious for filing lawsuits at the drop of a hat. He's filed over 4,000 of them. Many for defamation.

But Donald *will not* sue Ted Lieu for defamation. Why? He's been told by lawyers that in defamation actions, truth is an absolute defense.

β€œdeclaring no quarter constitutes a war crime punishable by up to life imprisonment under the DoD Manual for Military Commissions.”

Bombing campaigns put billions of dollars back in the donors pockets who then make more bombs and contribute more money.

Trump says in response to the Ukrainian leader's comments on committing to holding elections after the war with Russia is over.

β€œDuring the war, you can't have elections? So let me just see, three and a half years from now, if we happen to be in a war with somebody, no more elections? That's good,"

Tweet by No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen referencing cuts to food assistance for hungry children, quoting a report claiming Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth oversaw $93 billion in Pentagon spending in one month, including $2 million on Alaskan king crab. The image shows Hegseth speaking and a photo of king crab legs with sauce.

I was told the GOP cares about fraud, waste and abuse.

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 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.

⬇️ For your consideration: Watch to learn about the $220M taxpayer-funded ad campaign that's tied to a mysterious Delaware LLC and a horse named Gill.

Chris Murphy: "I Just came from a two hour, closed door classified briefing on the war. It just confirmed to me it's totally incoherent. We are not gonna be able to achieve any of our stated objectives ... this is a disaster of epic proportions, a 10 day debacle"

The right has systematically labeled anyone left of far right as radical, crazy and socialist. Democrats need to stand up, push back and call them on their bs. It is not radical to support healthcare for all, fair living wages and respectful human rights for all.
