β€œThe American military is tremendous. It is the greatest in the world.”

I applaud the members of our military and we have very expensive technology.

But organizations are only as good as their leaders, and we have some dumb people running our military. It shows.

Schlossberg: If this becomes the new normal and the president is able to trademark America’s birthday and issue his own currency while weakening the dollar, having gold skyrocket, and increasing prices on every commodity and input cost in our economy, we’re getting screwed and he’s getting rich.

Students have more power than politicians want to admit.

Your rent is here. Your tuition is here. Your vote should be here too.

Early voting in Chicago has already started. Don’t sit this one out.

Who would have guessed that the legal system in America was so fragile that a single crazy president could ignore the whole thing, from the Constitution right down to state laws?
Why does the Supreme Court and Congress let this demented moron act like the dictator of a banana republic?

We have to cut off funding before US soldiers are put at risk in a ground war. #NoWarinIran

Think of longterm health, too, of soldiers exposed to that air. Much more pervasive than the burn pits in Iraq and Afghanistan.

BREAKING: As many as 150 U.S. troops have been wounded in the war with Iran, according to sources familiarβ€”far higher than the Pentagon’s publicly disclosed figure of just 8 seriously wounded troops. The true toll of this war is already far worse than the public has been told. (Reuters)

Trump ally Lindsey Graham issues threat to Saudi Arabia over Iran war Republican senator warns of β€˜consequences’ if kingdom does not join US strikes against Iranians

So, Lindsay Graham helped orchestrate this illegal attack on Iran? Unloosed the hounds of hell? Censure him! Then beat him in November.

3 ICE vehicles were in a parking lot of a Columbia Heights restaurant on Central Ave this afternoon and there was a potential ICE vehicle by Pillsbury at pick up today.

A lot of politicians think it’s time to move on, but how can we move on when this isn’t even over.

Remember when America attacked Afghanistan to get rid of the Taliban and then reintroduced opium production and gave everyone PTSD and then just put the Taliban back in charge after 2 decades?

Not trying to be hyperbolic, I fear we are on the cusp of a 9/11 type catastrophe that this regime is unwilling and unable to protect us from.

Johnson: I think what we are learning from the Epstein files was a well-coordinated act of treason. If you think about how they use blackmail to get policymakers to act outside of the best interests of this nation and our Constitution, that’s treason.

DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate β€” and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.

He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.

The grift continues.

Now is the time for all the military who took the oath to uphold the Constitution to resign. "Ground invasion?" The felon and minions care nothing for those serving. Your life means nothing to these people. Having taken that oath, may you see/live the truth that you stated.

We can throw another $500,000,000,000 at the Pentagon this year and spend $1,000,000,000/day on a wholly useless war, but we can't afford to hire doctors and nurses to take care of our veterans? The United States is such an irresponsible, messed up country right now.

That Russia is helping Iran is no surprise. But how do they have access to our military intelligence?

We have a depraved,rogue President who has no boundaries and the GOP IS TOO COWARDLY to put up guardrails like Gen. Milley and Gen. Kelly did. The criminals running our country are now totally okay with our troops dying in an illegal and forever war. Immigrants are dying in our concentration camps.

The Constitution is clear: Congress is responsible for authorizing offensive military action and declaring war. This President – or any President – should not launch America into sustained offensive military activity in the Middle East, or anywhere, without Congress’ authorization.

He seems pretty sensitive whenever someone confronts him with evidence that Putin might not be our friend. Even when Fox brings it up.

Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social This graphic makes clear what is wrong with Democratic caucus. We are not Israel. They voted against our country’s constitution and interests. Hold them to account.

Impeach Hegseth now! He is not a serious person, leading a sloppy war that is further undercutting our stature as a country and killing noncombatants. #ImpeachHegseth #Nuremberg2.0
