The White House put out a series of hype videos about the war. Some have been defending it by saying military members themselves share these kinds of videos.

This is true. But they aren’t the White House. The WH is a bunch of children, and have no sobriety about the serious business of war.

Also, "The only side that targets civilians is Iran..." says Hegseth

This is disgusting, but also a tacit admission of just how horrible and indefensible it is.

There are a lot of posts out there with the close-up visual of Markwayne Mullin on January 6, but this is a better perspective.

He’s not protecting others; he’s protecting himself and hiding. You can see plenty of people at the entry door, ready to take on the insurrectionists, but not Markwayne.

Question: why would anyone come to the World Cup here?

@fifa that “peace prize” isn’t aging too great huh 🏆

Need to reinforce: These documents contain unsubstantiated allegations against Trump.

Notable: These documents were posted the day after Pam Bondi was subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee.

BREAKING:

The Justice Department just posted online three FBI interviews that had been missing from the massive trove of Epstein files initially released.

They're related to unsubstantiated sexual assault allegations against Donald Trump.

I love it!! 🤣😝😜

I think the answer is that there is a type of person who wants to build consensus and there is a type of person who wants to be a boss. Mullin wants to be a boss.

Now Senate can put hold on Mullin until Dems DHS demands are met

This is psychotic behavior by Sheehy. My goodness

Pass the War Powers Resolution now.

I just signed the petition with Common Defense to stop the strikes on Iran. As veterans and military families, we know exactly where "vague objectives" lead. We can’t afford another forever war.

Add your name and tell Congress to vote YES on the War Powers Resolution. app.sosha.ai/s/70hnJ8YN

Noem asked to retract comments calling Renee Good and Alex Pretti domestic terrorists Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., pushed Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to retract her previous statements labeling Renee Good and Alex Pretti as domestic terrorists. Noem said she was ...

Americans watched as federal agents killed two Minnesotans.

Now their families have to watch Kristi Noem continue to lie about it.

KENNEDY: What got my attention was you blamed your 'domestic terrorist' comments on Stephen Miller

NOEM: No

K: Here's what you said. 'Everything I've done I've done at the direction of the president & Stephen'

N: Where?

K: Did I read your words accurately?

N: I enjoy working w/POTUS & Stephen

KLOBUCHAR: Alex Pretti's parents said what you said was one of the most hurtful things they could imagine. Do you want to say anything to Alex's parents?

NOEM: I did not call him a 'domestic terrorist.' I said it 'appeared to be an incident of'

KLOBUCHAR: I think the parents saw it for what it was

DURBIN: How does taking dad from child dying of cancer qualify as a violent crime?

NOEM: I don't know what you're speaking of

D: Ruben Torres 2 weeks ago buried his daughter. When he was arrested at Home Depot, he said, 'Please. My daughter is dying.' They deported him. Was he a violent criminal?

CNN-SSRS poll:

59% of Americans disapprove of Trump's decision to take military action in Iran

60% do not think Trump has a clear plan for handling the situation

62% say Trump should get congressional approval for any further military action

This is a Medal of Honor ceremony. The military veterans and their families are here listening to this. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Just curious, how long does it take to obliterate an already obliterated nuclear program?

Asking for 8.3 billion friends.

I still can’t believe we have a Fox News host running our military.

This is the post I’ve been waiting for from a Democrat.

Oralè Resister
This was the best post of the day

This is a terrifyingly non-specific and opaque word salad in response to an essential question: what are our objectives?

The Pentagon appears to have zero clarity on what it is doing and why. Be afraid.
