Sure, we have had senior Cabinet officials who seethed about this story or that from time to time that they felt was unfair. But we’ve never had a Secretary of Defense who spends every single day so completely consumed by media coverage to the point where he can’t even function.

So a pathological liar says on the global stage that Iran’s nuclear sites were “obliterated.” Actual intel says that’s not true. Why would anyone believe the pathological liar who’s desperate to be seen as a strongman and a winner, if they’re not a cultist?

Not to focus on the obvious. But if it's important to end Iran's nuclear program, and if the effort in fact failed and the Hegseth is lying about it, the patriotic thing to do (setting aside the journalistic thing to do) is probably to make clear that it failed.

And then this shit just came out. When you’re making over $700k a year, gaining $12k is nothing. It’s a nice vacation, redoing the garage, giving a niece/nephew a car. When you’re making $23k a year, losing $1600 is “are we paying for food or for the house or for medical bills” territory.

Do they really think they can scare us with the word “socialist” when they are literally sending out men in masks with no warrants and no badges to disappear people off American streets? I know what I’m scared of, and it’s not a socialist.

We’re in the second Gilded Age just like the first — when America’s wealth was in the hands of a few, money corrupted politics, and working people were abused and exploited. It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the first Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back.
