Yep. Too bad. Hegseth is one of many things we tried to warn the country about.

Screenshot of a tweet by Ro Khanna criticizing insiders profiting from war, calling it morally corrupt. The image shows Khanna being interviewed on CNN, seated across from a host, with a news banner about federal probes into prediction market bets related to U.S. actions.

This would have made even Dick Cheney blush.

A great point!

Soulless sociopath says what?

🤮 🤬 🖕

Lieu: "I want the White House to send Kevin Hassett to every single TV channel and to every single swing House district where he can tell the voters of America that hurting consumers is 'the last of our concerns.'"

He was certainly afraid of Vietnam-style combat in Vietnam.

💯 on 🎯

Khanna on Fox News: "There was no imminent threat. Now there's a threat to the United States. We've created a threat."

CARTOON OF THE DAY

(From slyngstad )

We are a nation of 349M, yet one man decided to launch our nation into a reckless, illegal war without congressional authorization or counsel or the support of the American people. He didn’t think he had any duty to sell it or serve the people’s interests. This is why despotic rule is so dangerous.

Wow, is that the reason? I never wouldn’t have known that.

the country is at war and the president is leaving DC this afternoon for a weekend at his private club in Florida that he'll spend with his paying customers

Happy Friday the 13, Sassy!

Text on a pastel gradient background reads: Every time he lies his canckles get bigger and his rash spreads. Pedo Pinocchio.

Oh just a repercussion of his war that we will pay for.

"The spirit of liberty requires moral courage among the people who are elected to Congress... but it also requires all of us It requires us to speak out without fear It requires us to tell others unpleasant truths that they do not want to hear."

FETTERMAN: We should kill every last member of Iran's leadership

VARGAS: His son is now in charge

FETTERMAN: They should kill him too

If his brain were mush it would be an improvement

This is Trump's America.

Noem's use of Coast Guard resources strains her relationship with the military branch, sources say Some early decisions by the homeland security secretary, including to divert Coast Guard resources from a search and rescue mission to the deportation of immigrants, set the tone early.

"When Lewandowski was told Noem's personal items had been left behind, including a heated blanket, he yelled at Coast Guard staff

The pilot came out of cockpit to see what was happening & Lewandowski insisted plane return to collect Noem's items

When he refused, Lewandowski announced he was fired"

Good grief. Everyone knows they were just friends.

The Epstein scandal is taking down Europe’s political class. In the US, they’re getting a pass. As Europe moves to address its shame, it’s highlighting the comparative lack of accountability in the U.S.

Federal Judges have a very real and well-established reason to fear doxing and violence and yet I doubt anyone thinks it would be acceptable for them to preside from the bench in a hood.
