So once again @SeanParnellUSA and @PeteHegseth are going with the old “fake news” angle. So, we should expect the entire group chat screenshots to be released later today. Strike plans are top secret. Anyone who has served knows that. These two idiots know it too. Don’t fall for their bullshit.

He's a full-blown Banana Republican ...
Trump is now talking about shipping U.S. citizens to prisons in El Salvador. Let me say that again: U.S. citizens. To foreign prisons. This is not just unconstitutional—it’s unhinged. apnews.com/article/trump-cit…

Hmmm, reading tea leaves or a slight lack of confidence?
If Republicans are worried about losing a seat that Stefanik carried by more than 20 points, they are in some deep deep doo doo for the midterms

Dear @JackCarrUSA and @GarySinise and @GarySineseFoundation Can you guys speak out about this? This is wrong. You guys need to call this out and help fight this.

Pete Hegseth removed Colin Powell’s name from a list of notable Americans, buried at Arlington National Cemetery. Hegseth also removed the names of every person of color and every woman on the same list. Only white men were left in place.
Community note
No service members were permanently removed from the Notable Graves section from the Arlington Cemetery website. General Colin L. Powell is among those listed. arlingtoncemetery.mil/Media/News/Pos…

This is why Russia desperately needed help from Iranian drones, North Korean soldiers, and the American president.

UK Defence Intelligence confirms Ukraine's General Staff reporting on Russian casualties. Russian fascists suffered 900,000 casualties with 200,000-250,000 killed in just 3 years according to the British. 100,000 casualties since January 8th in 71 days. That's 511,000/year pace.

Ukraine did not start this war, and they did not ask for the constant missile and drone attacks that have terrorized the population. Government officials who can’t acknowledge factual information should reevaluate their career choices.

So sad ...
Heather Jarrell, the Chief Medical Examiner of the Office of the Medical Investigator in New Mexico, says that actor Gene Hackman's cause of death was heart disease, with Alzheimer’s disease being a contributing factor. Jarrell cited February 18 as his date of death, based on data from his pacemaker. She determined that Betsy Hackman, his wife, died before him on February 11th. The cause of death for Betsy Hackman is Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome, a rare infectious disease caused by rodents. It's so sad knowing that Gene Hackman was in the house alone and confused with his dead wife for a week before his death. 🥹
