I don't think we can share the side-by-side of Elon Musk doing the Nazi salute next to Nazis doing the Nazi salute enough.

While Spending Billions on Iran War, Trump Quietly Moves to Boot Millions More Off Food Aid | Common Dreams "Americans can't afford their groceries, they can't afford their medicine, they can't afford the cost of living, and yet we're dropping a billion dollars of bombs, it seems, every day in Iran," said o...

PHOTOS: A new "Titanic" themed statue docks on the National Mall. Spray-painted gold, the work depicts Trump standing behind Epstein and facing the Washington Monument on a replica of the bow of the ill-fated ship in the same pose as the movie’s lead characters, Jack and Rose. (Maxine Wallace/TWP)

Iran’s Cheap, Plentiful Weaponry Puts US Military Under Unprecedented Strain As the conflict extends towards a third week, an arsenal of attack drones and ballistic missiles has helped make Tehran unlike any adversary the US has faced.

The US has burned through over 1,000 Patriot interceptors ($4 million each) to stop an onslaught of Iranian drones ($20k to $50k each).

Using my last gift link from Bloomberg, which is doing some of the best reporting anywhere on the war.

The Shajareh Tayyebeh girls' school in Minab, Iran had been civilian since 2016, clearly walled off from the nearby military base.

The war bros fired the experts, didn't update a 10yo target list, used outdated intel, and fucked up.

Now they are in lying damage control.

The end.

Netanyahu has tried for years to get a US president to go along with his desire for a war with Iran. He finally found one. Then he used chemical weapons on Lebanon. This man is committing war crimes and igniting hatred that will start more killings and destruction everywhere.

Do I Have the Right to Film ICE? Despite government attacks against protesters and the press, documenting interactions with law enforcement and federal agents is protected by the First Amendment. Here’s what you need to know.

Yes.

ICE agents don't get to carve out a First Amendment exception for themselves.

I have a cpl serious questions for any and everyone who might see this post.

How serious are you about your political views?

Would you end a friendship and or relationship about a difference on politics?

I'd really appreciate your thoughts.

Yes. I definitely would. I'm searingly angry. I hate it for all of us, but especially I hate it for the generations after me, because if/when we get out of this, how long will it take before they can have the lives they deserve?

The minute someone shows me they are MAGA, they are persona non grata.

We've had so much snow here in Chicagoland! Sorry about your ski hills though, that's such a great outdoor winter sport.

(I'm honestly over it, tho, it's March, I'm ready for spring.)

Meanwhile, the rest of us feel betrayed by the idiots who saw Trump's first term, his insurrection, his 80+ indictments, 34 felony convictions and still voted for him.

Trump continues to threaten to cut off trade with Spain to β€œpunish” them.

But the U.S. runs a $4.8 billion trade SURPLUS with Spain. We are winning that deal. And Spain is in the EU, so you can’t just target Spain alone.

This isn’t America First, it’s America Confused.

"The war goals DO NOT involve destroying Iran's nuclear weapons program. This is, uh...surprising...since Trump says over and over this is a key goal.

But then of course we already know air strikes can't wipe out their nuclear material"

U.S. Dept of Heath & Human Services’ post on Facebook on the left reads: You can’t defend women if you can’t define what a woman is. This week at the UN Commission on the Status of Women, the United States stood alone in support of women and against radical gender ideology. One nation one vote one backbone. America doesn’t outsource values. On the right an article from the Daily Wire’s headline reads U.S. stands alone defending women in gender identity fight at United Nations. A white box above it reads β€œDefend women? you attack them , silence them, and mock them. Releases the Epstein files.

The ghouls at HHS really thought they were on to something they posted this garbage yesterday on Facebook.

Keep your hands & policy decisions out of women’s health & trans health.

I know it’s difficult given that this admin is full of white men who like to ignore the word β€œno.”
