extremely emblematic of a senate that is utterly detached from reality and the outcomes of their actions, i don't think they think anything matters (except for whatever pet issue they might have is)
Thing is, we DID hear about it at his confirmation hearing.
Every single senator who voted to confirm Hegseth knew he held these views about the laws of war.
They voted to confirm him anyway.

Everyone should read this terrifying thread about Hegseth’s published views wrt war crimes. It’s pretty fucking radical …. We needed to hear about this in his confirmation hearing.

It’s not a popular opinion because it’s a very bad opinion to have. Enjoy your fell for it again awards as they come in
This won’t be a popular opinion, but I don’t think the instructor was right here. The assignment said that the goal was for students to demonstrate they completed the readings *and* they could do so by reflecting on, among other things, their personal experiences. www.oudaily.com/news/ou-stat...

Since our fucking government isn’t observing World AIDS Day, I will. In 1990, I started taking care of people in the last stages of AIDS in their homes. I did this for nearly two years. The home care company I worked for had meetings for those of us who solely (or nearly solely) took care of PWAs.

there's a lot of dumb shit that you can pin on media and how Americans perceive the world but it is a little unfair that Sicario became the "cool badass operators taking out cartel guys" movie for morons because the very explicit text of both movies is that none of that shit works

The fact that 12% of federal judges are Black shows the corruption of DEI. The fact that 67% of Supreme Court Justices belong to a small legal cult called the Federalist Society shows the power of meritocracy.

The last university I worked at had daycare and childcare. University faculty and staff got a significantly decreased rate. It was very common to see colleagues and coworkers walking to/from work with their kids. Wild that this isn’t normal.
Hear me out: child daycare at workplaces. Small business can coordinate with other neighbouring small business. Take your babies to work. If there's a problem, your right there. Fund it publicly. Like school.
After school programs- kids are brought to workplace daycares.
It's an equity thing.

Never in my lifetime have I witnessed a politician so indignant, righteous, and combative about throwing the activists and door-knockers who got him elected under the bus. He's spent his term wooing his opponent's voting bloc while telling his own voters to kick rocks. No endgame here.
Brandon Johnson repeated this on WBEZ this week saying incredulously “there are people who want me to cut the police budget.”
I’d really love for him to reveal exactly who is asking that of him.
Because I can tell you this: a lot of people who want him to do that held their nose to vote for him.

Johnson vows to veto any budget that includes a property tax increase or makes cuts to the proposed $2.1 billion for the Chicago Police Department.
CONTEXT: No one has seriously proposed either.
Days until the Dec. 30 deadline for the City Council to pass a budget: 43

"No ceiling" results in what we have: a couple dozen psychopaths control several trillion dollars and the power has made them go stark raving mad. They are obsessed with using their concentrated wealth to punish the population and remake the country into a failed state and international pariah.
No value, no villain, no vision. Sounds like the tagline for the earnings call of a collapsing appliance retailer

They’re simultaneously arguing that soldiers have to follow all orders from the president, legal or not, but they get to ignore orders from a federal judge if they feel they’re not legal.
KARL: Did you know about the judge's order when you issued your order for the planes to continue?
KRISTI NOEM: This is an activist judge. We comply with all federal orders that are lawful and binding.

BREAKING: The majority of executives and upper management are totally talentless hacks.
A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.
I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?
