Bjork cover song in an ad is a recession indicator.

>>The memo, which was sent to Pentagon leaders and combatant commanders, was written without Stars and Stripes’ input. Stars and Stripes was not notified about publication of the memo, which was found during a search on a DOD website.<<

It's a very small thing in the context of an awful, ever-expanding war but I really need my colleagues in the wire services to retire the phrase "including women and children." You can say civilians! Noncombatants! Just "including children" is fine, too! But this isn't the Titanic.

Trump: "The story was knowingly FAKE and you can say those Media Outlets that generated it should be brought up on Charges for TREASON for dissemination of false information! ... I am so thrilled to see Carr looking at the licenses of some of these Corrupt & Highly Unpatriotic 'News' Organizations."

remains wild to me that the GOP is the party that's actually treating their opponents like they're an immediate and dire threat that must be eliminated at all costs meanwhile the Dems are like "hmm not sure I totally agree with all of this but let's hear these guys out, just in case"

These people are creepy, childish and just weird as shit and we should say it all the time.

the dipshit brigade currently ruining everything is always posting about how they want to go back to ancient roman times and on this, the ides of march, maybe they should sit and think about what that would actually mean for a second

There's a hauntingly beautiful irony in these morons thinking that carefully crafted American hegemony was actually weak and woke, and they would be the ones who would do Power and Dominance properly, and immediately bringing everything crashing down

it’s a very simple thing to pay attention to who is allowed to do violence and wish violence and who is not

Stephen Miller’s America First Legal and Jenin Younes’ New Civil Liberties Alliance gloated about their depositions and posted them online to get civil servants harassed but the DOGE boys are delicate flowers and rules dont apply.

As always, the Pentagon trotting out the 'Your experienced war correspondents on the ground in the war zone just can't see how well this war is going' remains a pretty good indicator that things are not going to plan.

"Americans prefer a car-dependent lifestyle." I can't tell you how much I hate this glib sentiment. The only way to determine someone's true, enduring preference is to give them full familiarity with their options. Americans have no familiarity with their options! They've only seen sprawl!

I read the “Save America Act,” so you don’t have to. Most of the media apparently *hasn’t* read it because, if they had, they would be sounding the alarm about the provision in Point 1, below, which almost none of them have even mentioned. I hope this summary helps raise awareness. 1/

The president is handing out oversized clown shoes to his cabinet — and watching to see who refuses to wear them. It's Solzhenitsyn's Stalin story come to life: the first person to stop applauding ended up in the gulag. The lesson then, as now — never be the first to stop clapping.

I feel like I’ve had to be loudly anti-war since I was 19.

Legitimately every time some bloodthirsty ghouls start advocating for another cruel and useless war, everyone with a conscience should say no and demand at least this much money be used for social services thanks to the savings.
