Another word you might use for it is "looting".

"This appears to be the first administration to take such widespread advantage of taxpayer-funded military housing to accommodate political appointees who do not have a direct connection to the military..."

BREAKING: As many as 150 U.S. troops have been wounded in the war with Iran, according to sources familiarβ€”far higher than the Pentagon’s publicly disclosed figure of just 8 seriously wounded troops. The true toll of this war is already far worse than the public has been told. (Reuters)

We're spending $1 billion per day on war as millions of working people struggle to get by.

Meanwhile, America's ultra-rich have never been richer.

Blumenthal after getting briefed on Iran: "We seem to be on a path toward deploying American troops on the ground in Iran to accomplish any of the potential objectives here. There's also the specter of active Russian aid to Iran putting in danger American lives ... China also may be assisting Iran"

Bush on why he quit golf during the war: β€œI didn’t want some mom whose son may have died to see the commander-in-chief playing golf. I owe it to the families to be in solidarity as best I can. And I think playing golf during a war sends the wrong signal.”

It's difficult to end a war if you don't know why you started it in the first place.

Trump bragged Putin was β€œimpressed” by his moves in Iran. Hours later the Kremlin embarrassed him. Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Trump didn’t even ask about a ceasefire in Ukraine during their call.

So he’s surrendering without accomplishing any of his stated objectives while declaring victory. Exactly what we said would happen.

It was a US strike that killed 165 schoolgirls. Mostly aged 7-12.

While it was likely unintentional, the decision to strike a military target in a densely populated civilian area was not.

Yes, difficult decisions have to be made in war.

I don’t trust this bloodthirsty regime to make good ones.

β€œA country that can instantly fund endless wars but debates every dime for healthcare and education doesn't have a budget issue--it has a values issue."

A billion dollars a day going towards the war in Iran so far.

He seems pretty sensitive whenever someone confronts him with evidence that Putin might not be our friend. Even when Fox brings it up.

We’re 7 days into something that looks like a war, feels like a war, costs like a war, has the same economic effects of a war, but we’re not supposed to call it a war because it would require the President to follow that annoying thing called the United States Constitution.

Calling in the Clinton’s in for a closed-door testimony while ignoring other widely implicated individuals is no mistake. This is an active, and massive, cover-up.

The costs of this Iran war debacle will likely be more than the cost of extending the ACA health insurance subsidies.

If you asked Americans, which do you want: another war in the Middle East or lower health care costs at home, is the margin 90 to 10? 95 to 5?

So now that Hillary Clinton has testified to the Epstein Files, the other 900 hundred MEN named in the same files are being called up to testify, right?

Here’s a thought for James Comer.

There IS a First Lady who has had a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. And it’s not Hillary Clinton.

It might be worthwhile for Comer to subpoena the First Lady who actually knows Epstein.

You know, just to see what she knows.

While Lauren Boebert is snapping pictures of Hillary Clinton in a closed-door deposition…

This is the only photograph of a First Lady that matters when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein.

Depose Melania.

Prior to 2015, if any candidate for elected office had begun a public statement or tweet with this sentence, he or she would have been laughed out of public life.

Now, Americans re-elect them as commander-in-chief. I will never allow myself to become numb to his insanity.
