Erin's post misses the key detail: According to the US Army - JDK is a code for "servicemember endangers national security". Which means that we're not just talking about them losing their job in the military. But they're automatically disqualified from every job with a background check.

Always great to see and stand up for democracy with @governor.ny.gov and @governorwalz.mn.gov.

Basically what I said a few days ago, the Marines are going to "comply" with the order, because it's legal. And stupid. But they in no way intend to put Marines and protesting civilians in the same location. So for the next 29 days, they'll sit on their packs,work on MCIs, or do their annual PME.

The fact that no one made CT shaped bbqs is a missed opportunity, frankly.

I encourage people protesting to be non destructive and non violent. And I remind: Proud Boys like infiltrating crowds, whipping up normies (this is what happened on 1.6) and creating chaos. Putting you, using your 1a, in peril. Distinguish yourself from these goons always. Heads on swivels, folks.

The S300 may be worthless in defending against modern military aircraft, but it'll shoot down a civilian airliner quite effectively, which to a nervous operator looks like a B52. This is just a very prudent decision on everyone's part. Yes, you may arrive late. But you'll arrive.

I am begging you guys to recognize that leveraging the flag is basically the closest thing to One Weird Trick in American politics because regular people don't hate America like you do

Not gonna lie, it took about half a dozen posts before I realized they weren't talking about the system of measurement.

We condemn in the strongest terms this violent assault on Sen. Alex Padilla. Elected officials should be able to ask questions of a Cabinet member without getting handcuffed by security. As Trump’s attack on our democracy and freedoms continues, Jewish Dems stand with Sen. Padilla.

Jim Acosta pointed out that this is a crucial moment for Sen. John Thune. The Senate majority leader needs to speak out and condemn this treatment of his colleague Sen. Padilla. "The clock is ticking," Jim said. I just called Thune's office and left a voicemail - Phone: (202) 224-2321

Pentagon rules sharply limit US Marines and National Guard activity in Los Angeles, prohibiting arrests, surveillance, and other customary police work. Here's what federal troops can (and can't do) while deployed in LA as ICE protests ramp up.

There are about to be a LOT of confused people on here when they find out the people of Palestine are celebrating these strikes because they blame Iran for Hamas.
