this is the simple answer to people who keep saying NATO expansion matters. Sure, it matters because it presented an obstacle to Russian imperial ambitions. Putin didn't invade because he hated NATO expansion, he hated NATO expansion because he wanted to invade

ECU, without its OC, DC, top QB, RB, TE and No. 2 WR, beats Pitt to win the Military Bowl.

Blake Harrell is 14-5 since taking over as head coach, he's done a real solid job there.

Not that anybody asked, but If you accumulated all the flora, fauna, and metal that your True Love gives you each day in the “Twelve Days of Christmas” song, you would own 12 Trees, 40 Gold Rings, 140 Humans, and 185 Birds of 6 different species.

I don't think Trump should get access to standard medical care, he should have to let RFK Jr treat him

It seems clear that the full Epstein files will only come out while Trump is President if someone leaks them, period.

For the umpteenth time: Donald Trump is one of the worst, most horrible, most despicable human beings who’s EVER lived. Shame on us as a people for putting him in power. Shame on us. To any Trump supporter, please defend this post of his. Defend it. I dare ya.👇 www.mediaite.com/politics/tru...

The thing about measles is that it’s the only known virus that triggers immune amnesia - it causes your immune system to forget everything it has previously learned. Meaning you essentially reset to zero and are now at risk of basically everything.

It can take 2-3 years to get immunities back.

The first reporter to speak up, interrupt, and call Trump out to his face while he is berating, insulting and personally attacking another female reporter for no reason will be a national hero. You may lose access, but you will be a legend forever. At some point, someone has to.

I hope people understand that if Trump gets his way America will soon be part of the global axis of evil if we aren't already. You see it in the Caribbean, you see it in Ukraine, and you see it with Trump trying to buddy up to Xi. We are a malevolent force.

RFK Jr. and his anti-vax ACIP are responsible for doing harm to generations of Americans living in the shadow of his anti-science leadership, and Hep. B is just the tip of the iceberg

It's time for Congress to impeach and remove RFK Jr. No ifs, no buts. Enough is enough. #ImpeachtheQuack
ACIP votes to end universal HBV birth dose for newborns. The consequence? Prepare to see a reversal of our rates of chronic liver disease and liver cancer as more children are left unprotected.

The birth dose has an up to 90% efficacy rate of protecting newborns from Hep B, which is incurable.

When I served on the Pentagon's Defense Innovation Board (under part of Obama-2 and all of Trump-1), what impressed me most about the commitment of Military Officers was their sworn allegiance — not to a leader or commander or a king, but to the US Constitution.

Millions of people are living paycheck to paycheck. They're struggling with the cost of food, housing, and other basic necessities. 70% of U.S. adults say the American Dream is dead.

How does Trump respond?

By crying about how the word "affordability" is a "Democrat scam."

Hello?

Matt Gaetz, James O’Keefe, and Laura Loomer have replaced the Pentagon press corps.

I am not kidding. Look at the thread below.

One of the military’s most critical lines of accountability is now a closed-circuit conspiracy carousel.
