The only fucking country to ever need NATO to come to its defense and now we're gonna leave? Just when you think they couldn't be more idiotic, they double-down on some more bullshit.
These absolute morons are going to destroy the United States.
If you’re in favor of the US leaving NATO, you either don’t want the US to succeed, or you don’t know wtf NATO does.
Worth noting that Mike Lee voted to expand NATO in 2022.

Mr. Minority Leader: Maybe if you're going to have this kind of defeatist attitude suggesting you're powerless to do anything, you should get out of the way and make room for those willing to stand up and do something.

Happy Superb Owl Sunday. I snapped this barred owl in my next door neighbor's backyard back in December. My neighbor was nice enough to invite me over to see it. #SuperbOwl

The thing about running the federal government like a software startup is that most software startups fail www.wired.com/story/the-us...
The US Government Is Not a Startup
Elon Musk is moving fast and breaking things that can’t afford to be broken.

Thanks to the entire team at @wired.com for your tireless reporting on the ongoing fuckery happening with Musk's made up agency. I just subscribed and appreciate all you're doing to protect and ensure the truth of what's going on comes out while we can still try to do something about it.

If you aren't outraged, you aren't paying attention!
Elon Musk’s staffers have gained unauthorized access to sensitive government employee data by installing a server at the OPM. They now have access to USAJOBS, the federal hiring portal where applicants submit personal details such as Social Security numbers, home addresses, and employment histories.

My dog made a new friend today, until he showed me the dog wash station he had recently built for a client. My dog didn't like anyone giving me ideas for ways to make it easier to give him a bath.🤣

As an attorney who does insurance coverage work for insurers, the feeling of relief when our annual malpractice insurance renewal process is done is pretty great.
