"Military Brass Warns Hegseth About Prolonging Iran War Operations. Top U.S. military officials have warned Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth against continuing large-scale operations in Pres. Donald Trump’s unpopular war of choice in Iran, privately expressing it could be taking away from their forces’ abilities to respond to threats at home":

Jamelle Bouie described the conspiracy that Pres. Trump is engaged in. There is some hope: if we work to help Democrats win big and gain majorities in the House and the Senate, then Trump could be impeached and removed from office in 2027.

Paul Rudnick: "Kash Patel has loosened the requirements for joining the FBI, with theft, prostitution, and bestiality no longer a barrier to joining.

Kash is seen here with his fiancee Daisy, who he met through the app #FarmLove."

Jamelle Bouie: "The president of the United States is engaged in a conspiracy against the voting rights of the American people, which is to say that the president is engaged in a conspiracy against the Constitution itself. This is part of a larger effort, spearheaded by the most fanatical of his allies, like Stephen Miller, to end the American republic and supplant it with an authoritarian regime in which Pres. Trump holds sovereign authority over the whole nation."

Terry Moran: "Donald Trump says he will push for his anti-weaponization slush fund.
He’s ruining the stable, growing economy he inherited.
He’s jacking up inflation.
He’s losing a war to Iran.
He’s making billions of dollars for himself through his massive corruption.
He does not care about you."

James Talarico: “You may not be interested in politics, but politics is interested in you. Your boss at work, he cares about politics. Your landlord, he cares about politics. Your insurance company cares about politics. Until you care about politics, they’re gonna keep using the political system to screw you over.”

Many Republicans realize that Donald Trump is dangerously wrong about their safety:
"Pres. Donald Trump and his Health secretary, #RFKjr, are cutting the federal budget for initiatives that aim to make illicit drug use less deadly, such as needle exchanges and drug testing strips. But some red states are responding by boosting their own funding for those harm-reduction programs":

"Investigators found that some male managers at a Norfolk, Virginia, Navy shipyard demanded oral sex from female employees in exchange for promotions and overtime pay, and that Black women had been paid less and promoted less frequently than men. On January 21, the day after Pres. Trump was inaugurated, he directed the Labor Department office conducting the investigation to stop most of its work, effectively shutting down the inquiry":

Aaron Reichlin-Melnick: "It's not hyperbole to say that the US plan to force 350,000 Haitians to leave the country and return to Haiti would lead to mass deaths. Earlier this year, the bodies of four women deported by ICE were found beheaded in a river on the Haiti/Dominican Republic border."

Corruption in the Trump Administration, at the Federal Communications Commission:

"Expensive Gifts: Despite regulating broadcast media, FCC commissioners have accepted pricey tickets to the Kennedy Center honors gala from CBS or its parent company, now Paramount.

Conflict of Interest: Ethics experts say that by accepting the gifts, FCC commissioners are compromising the agency’s impartiality":

The United States is losing its war against Iran. Meanwhile, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth is winning his war against women: "Opportunities Narrow for Women as Hegseth Blocks More Promotions.

For the first time in more than a decade, no active-duty female Navy officers are likely to be promoted to admiral this year":

"Lindsey Graham was an unprincipled man who betrayed his country for power and his decency for attention. He knew exactly what Donald Trump was from the very beginning, and chose him over his country. He chose Trump over his duty. He chose Trump over his oath. Now Lindsey Graham is dead, and Trump is his rotten legacy. The high court of history will pass a brutal judgement about a man who knew better, but chose worse":

I added it to my Mastodon bio. What should I do to opt in?

Yesterday, Donald Trump denounced: "thieves, radicals and lunatics" who "loot and pillage our nation”:

It sounds like Donald Trump is speaking about himself and his family, the #TrumpCrimeFamily. Donald Trump "earned more than $2 billion last year" from crypto schemes and other schemes, although "earned" may not be the best word for it.

Bad news for Donald Trump and good news for E. Jean Carroll: "The Supreme Court on Monday declined a request by Pres. Trump to review a $5 million civil judgment against him after a jury found in 2023 that he sexually abused and defamed the writer E. Jean Carroll":

Nicholas Kristof: "Elon Musk says no one can name a person who died from his aid cuts ...
Gbessey Kiadu, age 1, died of malaria because of his cuts to malaria medication in Liberia. I talked to his mom in her village.
Achol Deng was an 8-year-old girl with HIV in South Sudan who died when Musk cut funding for the health care worker who provided her medicines. I talked to the healthcare workers."

(Kristof's list of victims continued.)
