@estherschindler I like an old quote from Grady Booch in which he said, "The task of the software development team is to engineer the illusion of simplicity."

Since the @WhiteHouse and @POTUS is mad about this, please don’t retweet or share

Now we understand what motivated Trump to join him in this senseless war

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

Netanyahu today:

“Jesus Christ has no advantage over Genghis Khan. Because if you are strong enough, ruthless enough, powerful enough — evil will overcome good.”

The Prime Minister of Israel just said evil overcomes good if you are powerful enough.

This is the man Chris Murphy says forced America into this war.

The man Lindsey Graham said he’s with until his dying day.

The man who declared this war is turning Israel into a global superpower.

The man whose officials just received blanket pre-authorization to assassinate Iranian officials without case-by-case approval.

Qatar’s Prime Minister said everyone knows who the main beneficiary of this war is.

Netanyahu just told you his philosophy.

Strength. Ruthlessness. Power.

Evil overcomes good.

14 Americans dead. 175 schoolgirls killed. An F-35 hit for the first time in history. $21 billion spent. Zero allied warships.

He told you exactly who he is.

Never stop connecting the dots.

Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House.

Democrats introduced 7 bills to fund the TSA.

Republicans blocked every single one.

The Transportation Security Administration protects every American airport.

Every flight. Every checkpoint. Every piece of luggage screened for weapons.

The party that runs the entire federal government just blocked TSA funding seven times.

The same party spending $21 billion on a war in three weeks.

The same party that used ChatGPT to cancel Holocaust education grants.

The same DOGE that failed to reduce the deficit by a single dollar.

The same administration hiding casualty counts and banning cameras at funerals.

$21 billion for a war nobody authorized.
Seven blocked bills to keep airports safe.

🚨UNBELIEVABLE: Pete Hegseth accused Iran of investing in missiles and weapons instead of its own people.

During a speech asking Congress for $200 billion in weapons funding.

The Secretary of Defense who:

— Refused to give a casualty count when asked directly

— Hid 30 wounded soldiers in Kuwait from their own families

— Told his 13-year-old son Americans died to stop a nuclear Iran that didn’t exist

— Banned cameras from military funerals

— Said consumer pain is “the last of our concerns”

Is accusing Iran of choosing weapons over people.

While requesting $200 billion for weapons.

DOGE canceled $100 million in humanities grants to reduce the deficit.
The deficit was not reduced.

$21 billion spent on a war in three weeks.
TSA funding blocked seven times.

Cuban doctors expelled from the Caribbean.

11 million Cubans without power.

Iran invests in weapons instead of people.
Pete Hegseth is asking for $200 billion in weapons.

The irony isn’t lost on anyone.

Except Pete Hegseth.

Donald Trump on the U.S. troop deployments:

I seem to have great support. CNN came out with a poll today that I'm at 100%. They said they have never seen a poll like that. The CNN poll said I'm at 100%.

[POLITICO @politico]

John Bolton is sounding the alarm on Trump’s Iran gamble.

In an exclusive interview, Trump’s onetime national security adviser warns the strike on Iran may deepen conflict, create a dangerous power vacuum — and plunge the region into turmoil. 👇🧵

BREAKING: BREAKING: 2016 video of Pete Hegseth exposes staggering hypocrisy: He said the military must refuse unlawful orders, the very stance he is now punishing Sen. Kelly for taking.

Make sure everyone sees this.

My Michigan State Spartans beat their third ranked team this season as they took down North Carolina 74-58. The team was led by PG Jeremy Fears Jr. who had a career high of 19 points and 7 assists! MSU played physical basketball and was excellent on defense!

@DougWahl1 He fears that Congress would override his veto, which is a loss.
He HATES losing.
He will sign it into law.
