β€’ Veterans who were discharged from the uniformed services due to sexual orientation or gender identity/expression.
- They do not need to live in Washington.
- They do not need to enter school within a certain amount of time after separating from the military.
- They maintain resident student status as long as they stay continuously enrolled.
- Does not apply to veterans who have a dishonorable discharge from the uniformed services.

TIL that military service members who were discharged for their sexual orientation or gender identity qualify for in-state tuition rates in Washington regardless of their residency!

I have seen the old footage way more than the recent footage, so it seems to be working. Maybe, when pointing out Fox's lies, it'd be good to show the true image more than the false one.

Hey remember when every Team Trump excuse for this proved false and then everyone moved on?

BREAKING: The US has bombed Tehran’s main refinery and burning oil is now flooding down the streets into the city’s sewers.

This is a vision from hell, unleashed by the US tonight.

Judge Royce Lambert in Washington rules that Kari Lake’s appointment violates both the Constitution and federal law, and that all her actions as acting head of the U.S. Agency for Global Mediaβ€”including attempted firingsβ€”are invalid and cannot be ratified.

Worth watching the whole clip, but purely in propaganda terms it seems to me, admittedly just an amateur observer when it comes to war fighting, that it may be useful to send the message to the 91+ million Iranian civilians that we are not trying to kill them.

This thread should be the death-knell for Platner's claim that the army didn't ban him for the Nazi tattoo and for his defenders' claims that he didn't know it was a Nazi tattoo.

It's the reason he was barred from re-enlistment, and he knew it.

He's a liar who deliberately kept a Nazi tattoo.

I'm teaching about early 20th century eugenics today and was reminded that 9 years ago Republican Representative Steve King was stripped of his committee assignments by his GOP colleagues for this post that simply states what is now bog standard GOP policy/rhetoric on immigration and "civilization."

I know that the people who need to read this aren’t here, but here goes:

Rules of engagement aren’t for the enemy. They’re for you. They’re for your soldiers when they’re captured or wounded. They’re for your civilians when they’re in range of the enemy. They’re for your allies, to reassure.

I wonder if there's a connection between the lack of any stupid rules of engagement and the US/Israeli missile strikes that killed eighty or ninety schoolchildren 36 hours ago.

It's like the most obvious display of projection yet. He knows what he's about to say about the admin is bad, so he swaps Biden for Trump.

OpenAI posted the terms of the deal. Reveals that it absolutely does allow for domestic surveillance. EO 12333 is how the NSA hides its domestic surveillance by capturing communications by tapping into lines *outside the US* even if it contains info from/on US persons.

Hate to lib out here, but even if there was some sort of clear, strategic goal, this would still be highly illegal and the president should be impeached and removed from office immediately.

Just like we're voting for candidates who will hold the Trump administration accountable, the cis population needs to make it crystal clear to Democrats that we will not vote for "centrists" who seek to sacrifice the trans community for the appearance of being a moderate.

Senator calls for DEA to provide info on "incredibly disturbing" Epstein drug investigation Federal drug enforcement investigators targeted Jeffrey Epstein and 14 others in a yearslong probe first reported by CBS News.

This is a big one. A newly uncovered document has revealed the existence of a mystery Epstein investigation. It was spearheaded by the DEA and involved drug trafficking and money laundering. Epstein was one of 15 targets. The other 14 names are redacted. I've got questions.

He's going to release the unredacted Epstein files and go to jail in order to create the precedent that presidents can go to jail, thus paving the way for Trump's incarceration.
