@COMMONSENSIBL3 @kaitlancollins No......it is a valid question! We shouldn't be in a war that wasn't authorized by Congress. Presidents aren't kings.
@DVinny84 @kaitlancollins So you're attacking the reporter who asked a valid question, and not the DOD, the VP, or the one who started the war??
Statement from Libby Klinner, the widow of U.S. Air Force Major Alex Klinner: “Our family was initially told that certain combat-related benefits were not available because of classification issues surrounding the circumstances of Alex’s death. That was the information I shared publicly at the time. As the story spread, however, it created the impression that our family’s military benefits had been broadly denied or withheld, which was not the case. The Department of Defense has since completed its review and confirmed our benefits, and I’m grateful to everyone who helped bring clarity and resolution to this deeply personal matter. What this experience made clear to me is how difficult it can be for a grieving family to navigate classifications, terminology and government processes at the very moment we are least equipped to do so. No Gold Star family should have to become an expert in government language to understand what they are entitled to. Alex understood the risks that came with his service, and he trusted that if the worst happened, his family would be taken care of. Now, I want the conversation to focus on making sure every family facing an unimaginable loss has that same clarity from the start. Getting this right for the families left behind isn’t a footnote—it’s part of how we honor the service and sacrifice of those we lost.”
The Louisiana v. Callais decision may have dealt a devastating blow to the VRA’s core protections, but it cannot and will not kill our resolve. demos.org/blog/voting-ri…
@DylanByers This is such a betrayal of journalism as truth seeking and storytelling. CBS News was a pioneer who has now become the Onion version of its former self.

@Dr_Crypto28 @sirDukeDevin He speaks the truth. Think, then speak/post video. We must teach our whole history, including the ugly, racist attacks of the KKK on Black communities.
@Alicat5551 @sirDukeDevin Yes, a heartbreaking reminder of the brutal cost of slavery. Slaves endured harsh treatment on the voyage across the ocean and many died.
If only the Atlantic Ocean could speak, it would remind us of the countless black African slaves who were tragically lost in its depths. The Grenada Underwater Sculpture Park offers a poignant tribute to this history. Located off Grenada's coast, the park features "Vicissitudes," a sculpture by Jason deCaires Taylor, depicting children holding hands in a circle. While the artist's stated intention was not explicitly to address slavery, the local community, whose ancestors endured its remnants, finds deep connections to the Middle Passage in this work. The linked hands and its placement near historical slave routes evoke a powerful tribute to those lost and unspoken memories in the Atlantic's depths. Yes, we should move on, we have moved on, but we will NEVER FORGET! To avoid being characterized like your ancestors, I simply state, do not perpetuate their behavior, and we will all get along.
@sirDukeDevin I cringe every time he opens his mouth. It is either a lie, an exaggeration, an idiotic comment like this that is wrong on so many levels, a complaint about how badly he's treated, or bragging about ending six wars in six months.
BREAKING: Trump just posted on Truth Social complaining that "The Smithsonian is OUT OF CONTROL" by mentioning "how bad Slavery was." Take a long hard look, Donald. Slavery was bad.
🚨NEW: Rep. Nicole Collier is suing over "illegal confinement" after Republicans locked her in the state Capitol for refusing police surveillance. RETWEET to thank Rep. Nicole Collier for standing up to Texas Republicans.
This is true. Right @grok.
President Trump can sign whatever executive order he wants to sign — but it won't change the Constitution. And according to our Constitution, the authority to set our election rules belongs to the states. We will protect mail in ballots in Pennsylvania.
Pray for these warriors who still fighting on the front lines. Faces of Freedom 🙏
