🚨 THIS AGED HORRIBLY: Pete Hegseth attacked reports of additional American deaths in Trump's Iran war. Now the Pentagon has raised the official death toll to 21. Ben Meiselas zeroes in on Hegseth's choice of words: “They claim we're not in a war.”
More than seven months after a deadly Iranian attack on U.S. troops, families of soldiers struggle to cope – and several say they are angry as questions remain unanswered.

Election officials in Colorado and Washington state have issued public warnings about inaccurate information from the group tied to Musk
@nytimes.com you know how. We ALL know how. GOP states have PFILES in charge.
In @nytopinion.nytimes.com “We don’t have the moral authority to tell other countries to ban child marriages as long as we retain this abusive practice at home — defended by impractical zealots at both ends of the American political spectrum,” our columnist @nickkristof.bsky.social writes.

On October 9, the United States government sanctioned the International Criminal Court, citing ICC jurisdiction over crimes by US nationals abroad. This is an unprecedented assault on global justice and the rule of law. Read HRW's statement: https://bit.ly/4zuGQqh
Hey, @news.abc.net.au, the ICC is not rogue. WTAF? They have a solemn, crucial role in this world and Trump & co is in fear they might have to answer to their crimes. Yes, you can attach some of this to the Nobel, but he’s been attacking them since he got back in office.

I am angry tonight. Because tonight ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car. ICE makes this city less safe. We want them out. Now.

The MAGA regime recently killed the largest ancient 250 year old “Grandmother” Cottonwood tree in Arizona’s indigenous territory just to expand the orange felon’s fucking wall. I’ll never forgive anyone who chose this evil.
@wsj.com WTAF is this?! F you & the billionaire you rode in on. This is hate speech. This is intentionally inflammatory. How dare you. And couching it as “opinion” with the photo of the mayor of NY? He is NOT Hamas. Nor is he “celebrating 10/7 you worthless rag. I hope he sues you.
By "a few folks in the media," does Secretary Kegsbreath mean Trump's own Navy Secretary who reported on all the attempted suicides by sailors stuck on the USS Abraham Lincoln?
Hegseth: "There were a few folks in the media who tried to turn the USS Abraham Lincoln into some sort of symbol of dysfunction of low morale or a failed mission. I know it's the exact opposite."
