Wild that the current leadership at the DoD is more concerned with spinning narratives and attacking the press than addressing casualties that were completely avoidable. apnews.com/article/us-i...

Hegseth: Why do the headlines say inflammatory things like “war intensifies”? Pentagon official press release 3 days ago: Hegseth says war intensifies

Hegseth is in so far over his head he can't see daylight. This is a mediocre guy whose claim to fame was accidentally hitting someone with an axe on TV, and now he has to sell a war to an exhausted country that nobody can justify. He's scared, angry, and lashing out because he can't hide.

Two things here. One, you don't sit there and whine about media coverage and headlines if things are going well. Two, the administration is just outright saying that they fully expect Ellison to use CNN to be a Trumpist propaganda organ.

Disco!

This might be the greatest split-screen ever broadcast. They’ll play this in museums in future. (🎥 LCI 🇫🇷)

"Trump gets donations, you get massive Ticketmaster surcharges — service fees, platinum fees, per-order fees, payment processing fees, facility fees, magical money-sh*tting unicorn fees — on top of already sky-high ticket prices." — @lizdye.bsky.social

There are more instances of United States Citizens being detained by ICE than there are of illegal immigrants voting in elections.

This Miyazaki episode of Lupin the 3rd had a huge influence on Katsuhiro Otomo -- he learned how to storyboard partly by watching it over and over again From: Thieves Love the Peace (1980), dir. Hayao Miyazaki, Telecom

Once you see the Hotel Guyon in person, there's just something about it that will not let you go. It is hauntingly beautiful, even in its current state. These pics are from 2023, before they put up the scaffolding. Architect: Jens J Jensen, 1927

✊⚖️ "I Am Somebody!" 🌟 🕊️ Rev. Jesse Jackson, 1972 Sesame Street

Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"

Sharpton: "We're still here! We've come this far by faith. It was against the law to read and write! It was against the law to marry, but we've come this far by faith. I don't care what they do in Washington, I care what we do in the community. We've beat people bigger than Trump!"

Ryan to Colby: "In his victory speech, Trump said, 'I'm not going to start a war. I'm going to stop wars.' How can we consider that anything but a straight up betrayal? I think you are lying to the American people about it, I think the VP is lying about it, I think the president is lying about it."

pollera dancers with swords... is this anything

McGovern: How the hell is this America first? You guys broke your top campaign promise. Good luck with that. I hope the defense contractor money was worth it. Shame on you all. The mask is off. You're all just a bunch of pathetic Neocon Warmongers.

Ohhh I am not going to be happy if they eff around with the Chicago Stock Exchange room, one of the best things to see at the Art Institute of Chicago - in part as a living testament to the need for historical preservation rules

I wanted Cass to have a phone call with her dad and @polluxery.bsky.social delivered. She's about to make Bane have a really bad day. #Batgirl #CassandraCain

Loved @polluxery.bsky.social 's Cass so much that I commissioned him for more art of her. Can't say I've ever done that before but it's peak #Batgirl

The Constitution clearly gives Congress the power to spend taxpayer funds, and no law allows the president to halt if he feels some US states aren’t being “good stewards” of the money. In case there’s any confusion on this, the Impoundment Control Act forbids it. Taxation without representation.

Former U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement lawyer who was responsible for training new deportation officers warned Monday that the agency’s training program for new recruits is “deficient, defective and broken.” youtu.be/s6TrCEeJW0M?...

Look, a lots happened.

Whenever I see the Absolute Catwoman design, I kiiinda think like... it needs a little blue. I kid. But there is a bit of a resemblance. Which is likely a coincidence! Besides, Motor Minx was partially inspired by a different Bat character all together. ;)

So we can agree now that this “Board of Peace” is 💯 a front to launder money into Israel that’ll likely never get into the hands of any Palestinian?

So much of what Trump does is fake. Board of peace is fake. Venezuelan regime change was fake. Credit card interest caps were fake. Wall was fake. Its all about optics, the apperance of winning. Its all comms and marketing to make the base believe in the spectacle. But its not real and never was

I think my profile pic agrees!

ok

Donald Trump is stripping critical public health funding with one goal in mind: harming states he doesn’t like. It’s a slap in the face to Illinoisans. We will not stand by idly as Trump illegally cancels the Congressionally-allocated funding we are owed.
