Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth disclosed war plans in a group chat that included the editor in chief of The Atlantic two hours before U.S. troops launched attacks against the Houthi militia in Yemen, the White House said. It was an extraordinary breach of U.S. national security intelligence.

Posted this am about email from SS. Called local. They didn't know anything. Have to prove who you are. People said it was a scam. SS posted about it on X. I can't be the only person that has moved. Now I wonder if I will get my $ next week.

The local SS office was unaware of this. I moved to a new state and using a new bank. Will see if I get further mail from SS. Local office cleared me by phone. Hope it stands.

Maybe it's because I worked in Oncology for 10 years and 23 in hospice, that seeing a specialist that could save lives be deported makes me rage. I am unforgiving. Damn them. Damn them all.

The foulness of the cunt that did this will stick to them for the rest of their life, and in hopes there is a Hell, will suffer through eternity. I am sick to death of these goddamn motherfuckers.

Sen. Mark Kelly is ditching his Tesla

Captain Mark Kelly@captmarkkelly.bsky.social

I bought a Tesla because it was fast like a rocket ship. But now every time I drive it, I feel like a rolling billboard for a man dismantling our government and hurting people. So Tesla, you’re fired! New ride coming soon.
