Just so we're all clear, this is a war crime and would be punishable by life or death under U.S. law.

πΊπΈβοΈDiplomatic source RBC-Ukraine:
"Easing US sanctions against Russian oil will definitely not help stabilize the market, but will help Russia fight longer - and this is despite the fact that it is Russia that is helping the Iranian regime destabilize the Middle East."
Republicans are meek little mice.
Trump launches a war against Iran, Russia then sides with Iran and helps Iran locate & kill American service members, Trump then rewards Russia by lifting sanctions on Russian oil.
Tell me again Trump doesnβt work for Putin. Tell me again Trump isnβt a traitor to America.
Competitive authoritarianism watch. Ominous.
No money for SNAP, cut Medicare & Medicaid. No money for healthcare or for housing for poorest families . BUT Pete Hegseth spent $93 billion in September alone- $225 million on furniture, $1.8 million on musical instruments, and $12,000 on fruit baskets etc
Please help me share the post below. I donβt have a huge following, but this nomination is a bit under the radar and deserves more attention. His committee vote is this Thursday.
You can judge a family by the company it keeps.
This is real life.
Media: More questions to him like this one from reporter Shawn McCreesh, please!
The State Dept. painted humanitarian aid cuts as a necessary βdisruption.β
For the World Food Program, that disruption meant telling 300,000 refugees half of them would receive a meager portion of rice, lentils and oil.
The rest would get nothing.

Trump denies responsibility for the deadly girls school bombing as evidence points to the U.S. The Pentagon underreports wounded troops. Iran threatens Hormuz shipping. Oil markets swing. GOP infighting grows. Lindsey Graham melts down on TV. And more.
Latin America reacts with distress over Hegseth's sudden proclamation of regional hegemony and demand that Latin American governments either join the US military in illegally shooting drug suspects or the US military will operate on its own in (invade) their countries.
BRUSUELAS: At $125 per barrel, $4.25 per gallon of gasoline and 4% inflation, the U.S. economy βwill feel the pain quickly ..

Here is my opening statement to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee today.
Look, it's just purely a coincidence that Donald Trump started a war just days before the release of FBI 302s of interviews of a victims claiming he raped her when she was 13 years old.
Spot on, Ben!
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.
Feb 13 β White House on Noem, in a statement: βThe President continues to have full confidence in the Secretary.β
Mar 6 β White House on Bondi, in a statement: βThe President has full faith in the Attorney General.β
Start the clock.
Side-by-side collage of two images. On the left, a man with a beard sits in a legislative chamber seat, leaning forward over a desk with papers. On the right, two men stand behind podiums during what appears to be a debate or TV segment; a pink circle highlights a block or platform under one of the menβs feet.
Trump wants this guy in charge of Homeland Security.
Wow. The corruption and self-dealing is boundless β in the billions.

Yeah, I'm seeing predictions of gasoline being $15/gallon next week, but thanks to Donald Trump remaining laser-focused on what really matters to ordinary Americans, very rich people will soon be able to waltz in this:
Lol
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"
The video of a United States Senator joining the violent removal of U.S. marine from a hearing and hideously breaking his arm in a door is an example of what has been unleashed in this country. Theyβre tapping in to get in on the violence.
And then he bragged about it on X later.
