Ukraine offers to help defend the West from Iranian drones.
Russia helps Iran track American forces.
And the White House eases sanctions on Russian oil.
Explain that to the families of U.S. troops. My latest:

Not fired. Just transferred to another nebulous “special” position overseeing “Western Hemisphere Security” from which she will continue her sycophantic grift.
Eisenhower
We don’t have an unlimited supply of munitions, folks.
Unnecessary war. Unnecessary risks. Unnecessary weakening of our nation.
These folks never think long-term. (Guess I can stop at never think.)
“As James Madison put it: ‘In no part of the constitution is more wisdom to be found than in the clause which confides the question of war or peace to the legislature, and not to the executive department. ... [T]he trust and the temptation would be too great for any one man.’”
This from the folks who rationalized that raping 15-17 years olds is somehow “acceptable” because it’s not technically pedophilia. Disgusting lickspittle sycophants.
Sundowning grandpa can’t remember why he told Kegsbreath to make things go “boom.” He just clapped his hands & smiled like a happy baby when you rattle the car keys at him.
The emperor has no brains!
Patriarchy travels well…just like the religion & conquest that carried it to colonies across the world, killing matriarchal & native societies that threatened their “Hail the conqueror” actions.
I’m a fan of a Buttigieg/AOC ticket.
Both excellent communicators with the chops to lead a populist re-imagining of the damaged/failed gov policies & reliance “norms” not rule of law. Both champions of the populace, not the Epstein class.
He did his 30 minutes of “presidenting” for today. The other 23.5 hours is “executive time.”
Besides, his idiotic puppet-masters are on the job 24/7 executing their ill-conceived plans & making sure the boss sees ego-boosting media to keep him from having a tantrum.
Illegally committing our forces to war shouldn’t “divide” representatives sworn to uphold the constitution.
Those in Congress who support this illegal action by not holding the executive to account are oath-breakers who also should be removed from office for dereliction of duty.
Welp
He (or rather his lickspittles who actually plan the evil) needed to make sure his “favorites” would be on air to praise him for his never-ending ego-feeding.
I’m sure they also had his favorite social media lapdogs on screens, too. His puppet-masters need to manage his reality.
They both were in Epstein’s orbit.
Trump in 2011: “Our president will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate. He’s weak and he’s ineffective.”
Ah. Then Netanyahu was the last ass-kisser to flatter him into this “show of strength” BS.
The facts suggest two interpretive frameworks for Iran: a foreign war as a mechanism to destroy democracy at home; and a foreign war as an element of personal corruption by the president of the U.S.

To deflect from Epstein, low poll numbers & probably Netanyahu & Putin said it’d be nice if they were all 3 in ill-advised wars. Misery loves company & he’s a desperate sundowning narcissist.
Hurting people. It’s what they do.
Children, non-white people, young women, contractors, or anyone who calls out & stands up to them.
Insecure bullies one & all. Picking on folks “beneath them” to assuage their narcissism, racism & classism. Cruelty is their brand. Money is their god. Asshats.
Do not obey in advance. 1st rule of thwarting Tyranny (Thanks, Timothy Snyder)
We in MN will not give up our constitutional rights. We will peacefully resist. We will disobey unlawful orders.
This regime is illegal, immoral, and racist. And…weird. Don’t forget how utterly weird they are.
Last year, a note in the University of Chicago Law Review flagged a relatively obscure Supreme Court case as a potential threat to mail voting, noting that it could immunize the government from damages when postal workers steal or destroy mail ballots.
Well, bad news ... slate.com/news-and-pol...
The entire GOP universe.
This is how the U.S. declines rapidly. A pariah with ever-increasing federal debt due to reckless grifting & spending on crazed priorities of madmen.
Debt will cripple the ability of the gov to keep its promises to its people. Cost of living soars, quality of life plummet for all but the rich few.
They have been kidnapping & turning a generation of Ukrainian children into canon fodder for their expansionist aims since the invasion of Crimea. Reeducation & military training camps à la Stalin as well as “adoptions” for some too became good little Russians.
It’s a war crime per ICC.
Next up on the perjury trial investigations Kash Patel of “No credible evidence in the Epstein files” testimony.
2.4 million losing food stamps is a pretty big cut. Oh, you meant positive cuts like the ones for his Epstein Class friends.
Yeah, the rest of us get abused, but what to expect? He’s an abuser.
We will play by the Constitution and the rule of law. The very same laws they are violating daily.
Abetting these grifting criminals MUST have consequences, no?
Or is that atheift?
This may be why I’m an atheist😝
