What did I miss?
I was busy filling out a form explaining why the lunch included in my registration at the science conference doesn't mean I'm leaking state secrets.
Gotta think career military will not be thrilled by this.
In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on Yemen in a Signal group--and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

I don't know why everyone is making fun of RFK for this take.
I think he might be signaling he's part of the resistance.
After we do this we'll have no choice but to EAT THE RICH.

For the love of GOD! Can the goldfish media learn a f@#$ing lesson for once?
Will one reporter ask the question, why? WHY is he doing the tariffs now?
Is it to move the Zelensky story off the front page?
Can we please demonstrate the ability to hold more than one thought in our heads at once?

Oh $#!t. Just in case you needed another example of how these twits don't even understand the game they are playing and the full consequences of their bullshit.
Russia and China, have ramped up recruitment efforts targeting US federal employees—particularly those recently fired or at risk of termination. These efforts are unfolding aggressively on LinkedIn, where adversaries are reaching out under the guise of job opportunities, networking, and consulting.

Hey, y'all remember "death panels" the GOP warned us about in 2008. They're here.
The Milgram experiment made manifest.
Luke Farritor is not “letting them die”, he is actively breaking the law and withholding life saving meds from the most vulnerable.

He is actively killing people on Musk’s orders. This is a death squad.

We won’t forget his face or his crimes.
