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.
1/ Here's what I can share:
Trump's got about 39% support right now. How is that possible?
two things:
1. fascism has a constituency
2. partisanship is powerful
I talk about both at some length here. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/why-isnt-t...
Families is where our nation finds hope, where our
wings take dream. Put food on your family!
Knock down the tollbooth!
Vulcanize society!
Make the pie higher! Make the pie higher!
Will the highways of the internet become more few?
How many hands have I shaked? They misunderestimate me.
I am a pitbull on the pantleg of opportunity.
I know that the human being and the fish can coexist.
But he did say everything in this classic collage of a poem:
I think we all agree, the past is over.
This is still a dangerous world.

Rarely is the question asked
Is our children learning?
Sovereign Cereal is my new 1968-nostalgia band name.

… who need one more class to hit full time, and who don’t know any biology.
Put another way: Teaching “military [anything]” would be catnip for gung ho vets and armchair warriors.
Yes, but my first high school biology class was taught by the wrestling coach. That is, may be overestimating the degree to which classes are staffed by experts.
there's a thing I like to call "load-bearing assumptions", that you don't notice until they're suddenly gone (e.g the air you breath has oxygen in it).
the post-ww2 order is a load-bearing assumption for basically the entirety of american life. trump took a sledgehammer to it in the last 90 days.
… and THEN some.
Yes let’s please skip over the starving in the rubble of our cities while mourning our dead phase, and get right to the trials.

Interesting graphic from Pew Research.
They have a storefront where I can stuff envelopes or something?
I’m in!
Their sophomore release, “Love at Second Bite,” was a banger.
They share a WeWork with Vegetarians Against the Klan.
If there was video of a Senate Dem giving a compound fracture to a Marine while wearing his dress blues, that guy would've been burned at the stake by close of business
Let’s get #GraphicDesignSky working on this in time for the upcoming #NoKings on March 28!
If anyone is friends with any Georgian air traffic controllers, buy them a nice bottle of wine. As guardians of pretty much the only narrow gap still available between Europe and Asia that avoids both Iran, the Gulf, Ukraine and Russia, they are under some substantial pressure.
Trump is throwing away a billion taxpayer dollars a day on another war in the Middle East.
All while cutting funding for health care, SNAP, and children’s cancer research.
