His objective is to secure the win for the Rs in the midterms. The announcement is to achieve that, and he's assuming this cannot be delayed. Ballots are already being mailed with notice to return them ASAP. I'm not returning mine via USPS, though.

They are getting bad about it. I ordered something we needed, they said 2 days, and it took another week! Sounds like you got off lucky. They've simply laid off too many people to increase their bottom line. I'll be ordering early for Christmas.

The world now has its first trillionaire, but 39% of families in Florida are using "Buy Now, Pay Later" apps to buy groceries. This is Donald Trump’s America. A playground for the mega rich built entirely on the credit card debt of hungry children. What are we even doing?

Two weeks ago, the Hungarian opposition was bracing for a false flag operation, an "emergency" that would allow Viktor Orban to turn the tide or even cancel an election he is losing. Now it appears to have arrived

The Russian defense ministry has started openly recruiting students across the country for its "unmanned forces," promising that they will be able to terminate their contracts after one year - which is a lie, of course.

FYI: Dems in the senate can't defund ICE. ICE is funded by the Big Ugly Bill. Shutting down DHS on this vote wouldn't touch ICE, but it would shut down FEMA, TSA, Coast Guard, etc. Shutting down ICE requires taking back Congress in the midterms. Dismantling DHS requires the White House in 2028.

If George Washington heard Pete Hegseth’s concept of a warrior, he’d probably raise an eyebrow, according to an American history professor. For Washington, real strength came from self-control and being morally grounded. buff.ly/vPBIE6c

Where George Washington would disagree with Pete Hegseth about fitness for command and what makes a warrior
Washington’s ‘warrior ethos’ was grounded in decency, temperance and the capacity to act with courage without surrendering to rage. That ideal built an army – and in time, a republic.
