Rubio is the Secretary of State. This is his job to assist Americans abroad. He is failing. 🇺🇸🛂👇🏾

23 year old Ruben Ray Martinez’s last words? “I’m sorry sir”.

ICE shot him 3 times and killed him.

Renee Good’s last words? “It’s ok I’m not mad”.

Alex Pretti’s last words? “Are you ok?”

These are the people DHS calls domestic terrorists. Threats. Aggressors.

Abolish ICE

There are only two types of people who love war. Those who don’t have to fight in them and those who profit from them. And they are very often the same people.

On March 4, a U.S. sub torpedoed the IRIS Dena. Of 180 aboard, 87 died and 61 are missing; Sri Lanka rescued 32.

Sinking a ship that was someone's guest, that was following peacetime protocols, that couldn't fight back. Then leaving sailors to drown thousands of miles from home. That’s a war crime.

Not for the killing of Americans
Not for ethnic cleansing
Not for illegal arrests
Not for leading violent criminals to terrorize American cities

But for wasting money

I can’t believe that not one of the so called patriotic generals hasn’t ended him. That is the greatest service to the country they could possibly provide.

Siri, what is a confession of premeditated murder?

You are so lost, USA.

No one will trust you in the next 100 years.

Perhaps your 250th anniversary will be the end of the USA.

A brief footnote in the course of history.

BREAKING: Pentagon preparing for US war with Iran to last until September according to Politico.

Trump told some regional leaders that the war would last max 4 days.
After Trump's Plan A came crashing down, he changed it to four weeks.
Now Pentagon says 6 months.
Sure is starting to look like a quigmire...

Very normal people. Very normal administration. Not at all an unspoken holy
war in Iran.

If you genuinely believed you were 18 months from building a superintelligence that could cure cancer, you probably wouldn't pivot the entire company to horny chatbots. But I'm just a person with priorities. Maybe the path to solving death really does go through AI girlfriends. I don't have an MBA.

The United States has spent EIGHT TRILLION DOLLARS fighting and policing in the Middle East. Thousands of our Great Soldiers have died or been badly wounded. Millions of people have died on the other side. GOING INTO THE MIDDLE EAST IS THE WORST DECISION EVER MADE.....

Oh.

“We have agreed” — how nice of them! Surely they’re doing this work pro bono right?
