The shrunken E-3 fleet isn't getting any younger, and a replacement is still far off while demand for its services would be far greater in the Pacific.

New — This was projected on the US Institute of Peace building this evening ahead of the first meeting tomorrow of Trump’s farcically-named “Board of Peace.”

Photo taken by person who was over there tonight. Unclear who’s behind the projection.

It needs to be said clearly that it would be absolutely insane for the United States to start a war of aggression against Iran. If anyone thinks that Trump gives a rip about democracy or human rights you are kidding yourself. It’ll be another campaign of domination and plunder.

DO NOT LOOK AWAY.

Two-month old babies, choking on their own vomit while detained by ICE? I can't even believe I typed that sentence.

MAGA, you can't keep clinging to your "oh, they need to come here legally" bullshit. These are BABIES.

Where is the humanity?
Shut these concentration camps DOWN.

This Streisand effect might have very funny consequences

OP alt text: Post @LoganR2WH via Laura Bassett saying James Talarico is gaining momentum in Texas after a Colbert interview, with Google Trends showing a sharp spike in Texans searching his name ahead of early voting.
This may end up being a massive own goal for the Trump administration.

Elections have consequences, part 463,789.
NEW — An obscure Navy contractor program is making Trump’s plans to quickly build out and supply immigrant concentration camps around the country a reality.

Here I explain WEXMAC TITUS, an acronym you need to understand:
For ICE to build concentration camps quickly, they're leaning on this Dept. of War program
WEXMAC TITUS helps contractors bypass the traditionally lengthy government contract bidding process
