NEW: The Iranian drone strike that killed 6 U.S. troops in Kuwait at the start of the war was far more devastating than previously disclosed.
Dozens suffered traumatic brain injuries, burns, and shrapnel wounds. At least one required an amputation. More than 30 remain hospitalized. (CBS News)

Another word you might use for it is "looting".
"This appears to be the first administration to take such widespread advantage of taxpayer-funded military housing to accommodate political appointees who do not have a direct connection to the military..."

🚨 Pentagon officials told Congress that the war with Iran has cost the U.S. more than $11 billion in its first week
The injunction is silent as to the use of force. And it is not necessary for the injunction to address that use-of-force question because the Fourth Amendment’s reasonableness standard continues to govern the officers’ use of force and to prohibit excessive force. To the extent that excessive force has been used, the Fourth Amendment prohibits such action, and remedies should be available in federal court. I agree with the dissent on that point. But to reiterate, this injunction against brief stops for questioning does not address the useof-force issue.
It's not the most important part of the issue but Kavanaugh saying "well they should just sue if they're the victims of excessive force from ICE" when he himself has previously voted to bar lawsuits against federal officers for violations of the 4th Amendment in immigration cases takes chutzpah.

Let me be clear, in no way do I condone this attack
Still, it’s interesting. That six people being killed in Jerusalem is major news while dozens to hundreds of people dying in Gaza daily is left uncovered or buried as filler.
Let that sink in.
Release the Epstein files.
Let’s be clear: deporting Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda makes no sense—it’s not his home country. Nothing about this process has been fair. ICE is targeting him with cruelty. This is the weaponization of government, not justice.
Wow! Congress is actually attempting to do something! In a rare bipartisan stand to defend its own authority, lawmakers are quietly pushing back against Trump’s attempt to take control of the Library of Congress.
True facts are true
To anyone who is not clear: The First Amendment protected Rumeysa Ozturk when she published her op-ed. The same way it has protected me.
Rule of law means that we should be treated equally.
Sometimes you just have to ask—why? The Senate voted to strike down a rule capping most bank overdraft fees at $5, a measure introduced by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau that was expected to save Americans billions each year.
The Dumbest Administration In the History of Our Country?!

Bernie Sanders, AOC, and Greg Casar on stage in Tucson in front a crowd of 23,000 people.
Tucson, Arizona today.
Original projected attendance was 3,000 people.
23,000 showed up.
By moving to the “center,” Democrats have failed to fight the forces that led us to Trump: widening inequality and the unchecked power of billionaires.
There's no "center" anymore between a takeover of the government by oligarchs and true freedom.
Dems need to learn this.
Welcome to all our new followers! 💚
And that’s on that 😌
Truer words were never spoken.

I just signed the first bill of the year: lowering costs for small grain buyers.
Prosperity for our ag community is not a partisan issue. I’m glad to see legislators come together in a bipartisan way to get this done.

The cover-up…
USAID officials were ordered to destroy classified documents, raising concerns about compliance with federal law. An internal email sent to remaining bureau leaders at the agency’s Washington headquarters provided guidance on “clearing our classified safes and personnel documents.”
