NY Times reports Hegseth just struck 2 Black and 2 female officers from a promotion list — and says Hegseth’s Chief of Staff told the army secretary “Trump would not want to stand next to a Black female officer at military events”

I’ve read this simple tweet five times and am still reeling.

Before the war, Iran was exporting 1.1M barrels of oil at $47 a barrel Right now they're exporting 1.5M barrels of oil at ~$120 a barrel

It’s a struggle to stay calm when you see just how much damage the weedkiller/poison Phoenix Community Housing/Glendales maintenance folk have been spraying in Hope Close. SE12 @phoenixtogether @GlendaleLew @LewishamCouncil So unnecessary

❝Switzerland ordered some Tomahawks years ago. Now the US said they can't deliver them.
So Switzerland said then we won't pay.
The US have now seized the funds we paid for the F-35s (which we probably won't get as well) instead.❞
"Trust in the USA is suffering"
The development has been poorly received in parliament. "It's infuriating when we halt payments and then the money is simply diverted,"

Drones Flew Over America’s Nuclear Bomber Base for a Week. Nobody Stopped Them.
During the week of March 9, waves of 12-15 unidentified drones repeatedly overflew Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana. The base is the command headquarters for Air Force Global Strike Command, responsible for America’s entire strategic bomber force, including B-52s capable of carrying nuclear weapons.
The United States was at war. The drones came anyway.
According to a confidential briefing document leaked to ABC News, the drones displayed non-commercial signal characteristics, long-range control links, and resistance to jamming. They varied their routes. They left their lights on, not out of carelessness, but to monitor how the base responded. Analysts called it deliberate reconnaissance.
The Air Force tried to jam them. It did not work.
Barksdale issued a shelter-in-place order on March 9. Flight line operations were halted. B-52s carrying AGM-158 cruise missiles and 30,000-pound bunker buster bombs were grounded. It was the first time a U.S. air base had been temporarily put out of operation in wartime, something that never happened in World War II.
The drones were assessed as far more sophisticated than anything seen in Ukraine, and well beyond Iranian capabilities. No operator has been identified. No one has been caught.
The incident received limited media coverage.
It happened three weeks ago.

@PhilipCarm96996 I pretty much sat out the 80s when I was living on the farm. All I can think of is Zappa. youtube.com/watch?v=R5Q1yV…

This could not be more true. We're ruled by a guy whose sole focus is on his money, petty revenge and renovations of his living quarters.

Goldman: It is a joke for you to say that Republicans were treated so unfairly… George Santos got a pardon. Every single Republican under investigation had their investigation dropped. Every single political person that Trump has investigated is a Democrat

I'm playing a music game with some new friends. Today's category was 70s novelty songs. I still remember most of the lyrics to this one.

@pkalina Yes. I meant to post Pyrex bowls. It was too late to change it. I plead distraction. And they are often conflated in the public mind.

DHS entered 2026 with 150 billion. Noem squandered it on vanity video, lux private jets and a fleet of branded armored SUVs no agent will drive. They can afford to pay TSA.

🚨DUCKWORTH CONFIRMS: DHS could have been paying TSA agents all along using existing funds.

Do I have any friends in Maine? Take this into account when you vote.

Susan Collins sided with Donald Trump and Senate Republicans, voting against paying TSA agents.
