Candidly, as a civ-mil watcher, this scene at Bragg is freaking me out more than anything else that's happened so far. Just an absolute collapse of professional military norms.

And some people wanted us to believe Susie Wiles was going to keep the White House drama-free

I am sincerely moved by Sen. Van Hollen. Sometimes Members of Congress do stuff that is brave. I didn’t say this while he was there, but it kind of reminded me of Rep. Leo Ryan in 1978.

We need more MOCs to show the same spine for their constituents. We do NOT accept our neighbors being disappeared

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

“Slow Pay, Low Pay or No Pay” Blue Cross authorized mastectomies and breast reconstructions for women with cancer but refused to pay the full doctors’ bills. A jury called it fraud and awarded the practice $421 million.

This how health insurers screw everyone for profit. Republicans will cut off sick people before they even lift a finger to investigate the real fraud in our healthcare system.

How much do you think it costs to make a pair of Nike shoes in Asia?

Before you open this thread, take a guess. Settle on a number and then compare it to what you'll learn in this thread. 🧵

Golly gee whiz, wonder why

And then he can brag how countries are kissing his ass right now to make deals.

This all points to confidence in US treasury bonds rapidly degrading, and the consequences of that go well beyond a simple recession. The US bond market imploding would make 2008 look like child's play.

So good. 🤡

This is Senator Jim Banks from Indiana. No need to tell you he’s a Republican—it’s clear by the cruel disdain he shows his own constituent who was laid off.

Note: he waits until the door’s about to close before telling him he deserved it & calling him a “clown.”

He’s not just cruel—he’s a coward.

Jesus Christ, at least just play the numbers game and stand up to them because nobody who’s on the right side of history needs this much free legal work.

no offense to Jeff but if you are alleging the head editor of the Atlantic was cunning enough to circumvent all your security safeguards that kinda makes you sound even worse

so telling that Hesgeth’s reflexive reaction was to trash Goldberg as

“deceitful and highly discredited so-called journalist who’s made a profession of peddling hoaxes. This is a guy that peddles in garbage. This is what he does.”

That’s what happens when you get a Fox News guy at Sec DoD

No, no,this is a great idea and they should keep testing it til they get it right.

She doesn't mention cloture specifically. But I think it's clear what Pelosi is saying here. And I think her saying it is a pretty big deal.

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill.

Do not let anyone play games with you.

Sweet jesus this is how it’s fucking done. Bravo to the reporter pushing to get an answer to a simple question.

In which the Department of Homeland Security struggles to answer a very simple question: "Is any criticism of the United States government a deportable offense?"

The Adolescent Style in American Politics The version of manhood placed on display by Trump and his aides is the one imagined by teenage boys.

I'm glad someone finally pointed out that the new "masculine energy" is extremely fucking childish. Grow up. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

My cats would love it if I had a butthole lazer.

Just like ladybug said, “if we nominate Trump we will get destroyed.”

wolf840 said: Does anyone else remember when Elon was like "if anyone knows how to end world hunger for 6 billion USD, I'll fund it" and UNICEF was like "we're going to spend a month to make a plan to end world hunger for 6 billion USD and Elon is going to fund it" and Elon was like "actually, nah" and then bought Twitter instead? I think that was one of the worst things I'll ever see in my life. tiredspacedragon replied: I still think that should be the thing for which he's the most famous. It should be brought up every time he's mentioned. In any news article, any interview, any history book. "Elon Musk, who was offered a chance to end world hunger and turned it down." Put it on his fucking gravestone.

“put it on his fucking gravestone”

Eric Schmitt was just asked to game out how Ukraine holds elections right now. He said we did it once so they can too. Only thing is when we did it there weren’t missiles flying through the air. Always wild to me how willing they are to show how fucking dumb they are.

I mentioned this to some friends in Trump 1.0. Never in my wildest nightmares did I think this would be so much worse in 2.0.

And added new musical performances on top of the homecoming concert Friday. The entire reunion was great!

I hope they keep spending money on this. You’re so close to real people movements. You just need to burn more billions and you’ll get it. People will totally love this.

Maybe do a Craigslist ad, in missed connections and see of you find em

“MaYbe shE’s goiNg to be in TroUble nOw”

Maybe he can learn to read. The Constitution would be a good place to start

If George Soros held an Oval Office press conference explaining his plans for the Biden administration and then the State Department awarded a nine figure contract to the Open Society Foundations then Washington D.C. would’ve consisted of mostly ash and blood within 72 hours.
