Strict SCIF protocols generally prohibit any electronic devices that aren't specially approved and 'neutered' (e.g., no mics, no wireless capabilities, or fully Faraday-caged).

War Is Not a Meme War requires strategy, discipline, and clarity. Instead we’re getting memes, trolling, and a mission that still hasn’t been explained.

America’s military belongs to the American people β€” not Donald Trump.

In a war with Iran, the country deserves more than memes and shifting talking points.

We deserve a clear mission.

Wait. Stop. If you’re doing something that’s supposed to be FUN and you’re not having fun? It’s ok to stop or slow down or change how you’re doing that thing. Adjust until you’re actually having fun, because that’s the point.

Estimated cost of Trump's war: $1 billion PER DAY.

That's enough to pay for
- Medicaid for all 16 million people losing it because of Republican budget cuts
- AND daily food stamps for all 41 million people who rely on them

Imagine if we had a government put people over profit.

[2/2] Earlier he indicated he may dispatch American ground troops into Iran, since air attacks can take him only so far. This is a path to endless Middle East conflictβ€”quagmire Trump. He can distract for awhile but ultimately his costly failures abroad will only add to his failures at home.

Almost every time I volunteer to do the actual work with some group - from phonebanking to door knocking to folding zines or whatever - the crowd is anywhere from 70 to 90 percent femme. Also, primarily OLDER people.

Older ladies actually make shit happen.

Good morning Gary & friends. He has never never cared about anyone. He’s a sick, nasty , pedophile POS! He has threatened a draft. We know he does as he pleases. I do wish everyone a nice and peaceful Monday.

Trump tries to hide behind his wars but an entire city became a billboard. Epstein files. The client list. Projected across buildings for everyone to see. No one could look away. No one could scroll past. The streets became the screen. This is what happens when the internet goes outside!

Thought I would have gotten used to it by now, but I’m still grappling with the realization of just how stupid the men running this country are.

The US striking an Iranian desalination plant on Qeshm Island could mark a disastrous precedent. The Gulf is highly reliant on desalination to meet its water needs. If Iran retaliates against plants in the region, water shortages could become catastrophic.

One of the most depressing things about the war in Iran is how a bunch of grown ass men are acting like this is a fucking video game.
