Markwayne Mullin is the same dude already under scrutiny for suspicious stock trades.

And heโ€™s supposed to run Americaโ€™s national security.

โ€ข No government security experience
โ€ข No law enforcement background
โ€ข No intelligence work
โ€ข No military service
โ€ข Not even a bachelorโ€™s degree

When children die in war, real leaders show grief & accountability.

Trump says heโ€™s willing to โ€œlive with itโ€, if a U.S. missile killed girls at a school in Iran.

That sentence alone should chill all of us

Little girls
A school
Girlsโ€™ lives matter no matter what country theyโ€™re born in

One excellent way to place Americans at greater risk of retaliation is to convince Iranians that America isnโ€™t just attacking their countryโ€”weโ€™re attacking their faith.

Pete Hegseth is smart that way.

WATCH: โ€œEXPLAIN THE BILL, THEN.โ€๐Ÿค”

MEMPHIS REP. GILLESPIE just voted AGAINST a bill that says they canโ€™t refuse a mother pregnancy-related medical care by claiming a โ€œreligious or conscience objectionโ€ - because he thought it was a Trojan horse for abortion.

As Womenโ€™s Rights Falter Globally, US Moves To Weaken UN Support For Gender Equality - Health Policy Watch The United Nations Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) began its 10-day session in New York on Monday, amid efforts by the United States to weaken womenโ€™s

Did you know:

That women only have 64% of the legal rights of men.

Globally, 54% of countries lack consent-based legal definitions of rape; 72% allow child marriage in all/some circumstances.
