Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.
Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Aaaaaand…this is exactly why the six lawmakers needed to remind servicemembers about not obeying unlawful orders (this will get driven home when Hegseth gets a pardon but no one else does)
NYT:
Five officials told us that Hegseth had nothing to do with the second strike
Washpost (which broke the story 2 days ago):
“This is ‘protect Pete’ bullshit,”
and
“It’s throwing us, the service members, under the bus.”

Truth
Hey US Navy – get your house in order! Stop blatantly murdering people on the high seas! Where in your military doctrine does it say that you must subjugate yourself to the whims of a madman? Sure, you have plenty of physical courage – not disputing that – but where in TF is your moral courage?!

So, to recap:
Washington Post story breaks on Hegseth.
Pentagon says fake news.
White House confirms the story roughly 12 hours later - and defends it.
Press Sec confirms that Hegseth personally ordered the execution of the two stranded men.
This isn’t going well.

“That no one down the chain of command refused this patently illegal order is shocking and sheds more light on the breakdown of the rule of law within DOD under the leadership of Secretary Hegseth.”

We're entering a geopolitical world that divides green energy countries and oil countries that go to war to control access to oil
Energy transitions can happen faster than we think:
In 2000 almost 90% of Denmark's electricity was from fossil fuels.
In 2024 less than 10% of Danish electricity was from fossil fuels.

If you’re more upset about Democrats reminding members of the military NOT to commit war crimes than you are about Republicans using the military TO commit war crimes, then congratulations, because you are an idiot, an asshole, and you’re in a fucking cult.

Quite possibly Americans are the best slaves on the planet. They labor incredibly hard to enrich their oligarchic masters.
GUARDIAN: “Per head, 🇺🇸 output is six times China’s, and yet, inexplicably, there seem to be more abjectly poor Americans than Chinese. 🇺🇸 inequality is breathtaking… keeps getting worse…”
Wanting to address this isn’t radical.
