When i was stationed overseas and when I deployed, S&S was always there with fair reporting I could trust. Hegseth is destroying this legacy because a free press is dangerous to him. This is an important read.

Trump's DOJ is pushing 384 denaturalization cases, calling it a "first wave" of such cases they want to pursue. The article notes that between 1990 and 2017 there were only 305 such cases total. This is ominous, especially in light of calls to denaturalize people like Rep. Omar and Mayor Mamdani.

A picture is worth a thousand words.

You ever try to code switch at work and fail? 😂

Heartbreaking description of the pointless, thoughtless damage being done to the Kennedy Center. It was such an important part of life in Washington, and is now being destroyed for no reason www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

He’s lost his damn mind. Also, if he thinks Iran will “never close the Strait again” he’s delusional. He’s acting like the war is over because it’s back to status quo…ish. Still haven’t solved uranium or missiles. All we’ve done is get the Strait re-opened.

Without saying your age, post your favorite movie from the year you turned 18.

If members of Congress believe Trump's illegal war is justified and worth the incredible costs, they should vote to call it a war. Instead, they are hiding by not voting. A No vote for a vote = a Yes vote for a war.

I hate when fantasy films I made a long time ago begin to come true in real life.

Melania Trump wants these photos and emails to be scrubbed from the Internet. Please stop liking and sharing them. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

He literally said *yesterday* that he was considering a “joint venture” to help Iran charge people for using the Strait. He said the day before that he didn’t care if they made a little money off of it. Someone give pawpaw his dementia meds.

This is getting confusing. Is the Iran war a distraction from Epstein? Or is Epstein now a distraction from the Iran war?

WTAF?

It just doesn't stop. He's a lunatic.

Thank God we aren't going to destroy a whole civilization tonight. But have mercy on us for having a deranged psychopath as president with access to a nuclear arsenal that is actually capable of doing such a sin.

In an age of creeping relativism, a universal moral law still exists. Threatening to end an entire civilization of 90 million people in order to bend a nation’s conduct to your will is grossly morally wrong. It is evil. And we should say this loudly.

I’m sure that’s news to them…

Donald Trump just posted a video of Somali people enjoying the Mall of America to the soundtrack of “Mad World” because he is a bigoted POS

It's remarkable that the Muslim Mayor of New York has a better understanding of Easter than the Christian Right favorite US president.

This is how an actually Christian former President sends out greetings for Easter, unlike the vile that our current president, who is beloved by Chistian Right but has no concept of Christ's sacrifice, sent out.

His Easter morning post. And just 2 days ago, one of his “religious advisors” compared him to Jesus Christ. He will forever be a stain on this country. And the world. 25th Amendment. Now. And to everyone else who, unlike Trump, understands & celebrates today - Happy Easter.

first time really tuning into a war? welcome. Let’s go over some rules of how to behave. These are going to be especially important if it’s a war you oppose. 1. You are allowed an opinion. This is America. Whether you served or not. It’s done in your name so might as well speak up. 🧵

This was a beautiful goal!

I mean, you don't really need a translator

If you ever meet an Air Force PJ, buy them a drink. They’re some of the bravest MFs you’ll ever meet. They’ve been at this all day trying to find the WSO, despite taking fire every time they go out. “These Things We Do, That Others May Live”

Of Trump's wildly incompetent and corrupt Cabinet, Donald has only fired two people: Kristi Noem and Pam Bondi. Both women. Just a coincidence, I'm sure. I mean, Pete Hegseth may be the worst Secretary of Defense in history, but at least he has a penis.

I just don’t think you need to love war crimes to be a real man.

Both of Marco Rubio’s parents were born in Cuba. Marco Rubio was born in Miami in 1971, before they became US citizens. He is a US citizen because he was born in the US under birthright citizenship. #Hypocrites

Just a reminder that the senator who sponsored the bill which became law with broad bipartisan support that states a president cannot pull the US out of NATO without congressional approval was … Marco Rubio.

🧵 A masterclass in creating a dysfunctional command climate. Also, just existing in the military is dangerous business. And it's why we take safety so seriously. And when the SecDef reaches down and cancels a subordinate's investigation out of hand, brother, bad things are happening.

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

"Look at his track record" is one of the most unintentionally ironic statements Hegseth has made.

You might forward this story to every Marine you know.

Burying the competition 🥶 With the win tonight, we’ve become the 4th team in the NHL since 1995 to have beaten every team in the league in a season.

FBI Director Kash Patel is pressing to release a decade-old investigative file involving Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-California) and a suspected Chinese intelligence operative. Kash Patel’s push against Democratic lawmaker raises concerns within FBI www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Jaw-dropping admission by DOJ to court. DOJ admits to having repeatedly made "material mistaken" representations to judge - ICE never had authority (under 2025 Guidance) to conduct arrests at immigration courthouses! DOJ admits court "relied on...prior misrepresentations." DOJ blames ICE (page 2)

It regularly blows my mind how much evidence of Trump's corruption and incompetence there is, yet Rs still act like nothing is wrong. Now we know he's showing off classified maps like a new toy and keeping classified documents related to his business interests.

Trump: Mail-in ballots is cheating and must be eliminated! Also Trump: I should be able to mail my ballot in because I live in DC and vote in Florida. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Good

Got so excited to see our Captain #92, Gabe Landeskog, back on the ice here in DC!!

The US to temporarily lift sanctions on oil from Iran for 30 days, the only exceptions are they can't sell to North Korea, Cuba, or occupied Ukraine.

I've liked Smith for years. He understood critical national security issues and approached them in a bipartisan manner. He's a country first guy. And he's saying fuck no to paying $200 billion for Trump's illegal war.

Go Denver!

New via NYT: Paolo Zampolli, a former modeling agent and a longtime Trump ally who appears in the Epstein files, was in a custody battle over his son. He called ICE and told them his ex was in the country illegally. An ICE official agreed to help.
