Charlie Angus: Heavy crude from Alberta has served American refineries for a long time. It has served the US economy super well. But hey, you threaten us, well, we’ll have another pipeline and it can go elsewhere. The message to the MAGA administration is: Keep pushing, sucker, and see what happens

This guy has been doing everything he possibly can every day to use his position of SecDef to tamper with the midterms, from speaking at Republican campaign rallies, to giving partisan political speeches to troops, to this. Do all federal employees get a day off to vote?

The idea is to feed helpless dependent people into a privatized system of incarceration that loots the government of taxpayer dollars, funnels money to people who bribe Republicans and tRump, and delivers abominable care that hastens their deaths to make room for the next batch to make more money.

I mean, it's not that much of a shock at this point. Trump, RFK Jr., and all the rest in his cabinet are openly eugenicists who would sooner see everyone who so much as catches a cold drop dead than ever fund a single disabled person.

They're holding up a major escalation in Iran and a crackdown on abortion until after the midterms to limit political damage. To the extent that the last two years have been a right-wing smash-and-grab operation, the next two will be worse.

US military spending isn't just DOD. As David Vine writes in @motherjones.com, it is spread across at least 15 other federal agencies, and the total likely exceeds the combined military budgets of every other nation on Earth. These figures are "likely to stun most Americans,” notes one expert.

Think Trump’s $1.5 trillion Pentagon budget request is outrageous? This'll blow your mind.
We already spend at least that much on the US military each year, and maybe a lot more.

Amidst a failing war the US started, the SecDef chose to focus on measuring military members’ hormones, and injecting testosterone into personnel whose hormone levels he dislikes. He also fixates on PT while losing an air war. If you said this to someone a few years ago, they wouldn’t believe you.

NEW. The Court that have tried to make Trump king continues to suffer record low approval rating. The Roberts Court current approval rating remain in the toilet at 34% just 1 point off record low. @semafor.com Should be in the 20s.
“Supreme Court faces sour American public
Chart showing trust in the judiciary 
As the Supreme Court prepares to kick off its new term next week, the justices face an increasingly pessimistic American public. Thirty-four percent of US adults say they approve of the job the high court is doing, according to new Gallup polling, on par with the 33% who said so in July as the court ended its last term — a record low in the history of Gallup’s polling on this question, which dates back more than a half-century. Thirty-five percent, also a new low, say the court is “about right” ideologically, while 43% label it too conservative, as it deals out a mix of decisions on Trump’s policies. Forty-six percent of Americans also say they have a great deal or fair amount of trust in the federal judicial branch, also a low, driven by declining trust among Democrats and independents.”
