This commodification & normalization of weapons trafficking is bad. What’s criminalized for gangs is ok if the govt does it. US Defense Dept is branding its immoral activities: “US Merchants of Death, Inc”. We need a leader to confront the powerful Defense lobby & its cronies in the govt
Throughout multiple administrations the US has blatantly ignored Eisenhower’s warnings and consecutive presidents allowed the Military Industrial Complex to run amock, enriching the defense industries while impoverishing American taxpayers who subsidize them.
Dwight D. Eisenhower, US General and President, warned against the destructive nature of the Military Industrial Complex in his final address.
How to make lemonade out of lemons of normalization of weapon trafficking? Exploit the opportunity for greater accountability for immoral activities of the US Military Industrial Complex. Members of Congress can identify strategies to reduce Defense Dept spending.

Matthew Arnold wrote “Dover Beach” to his wife Frances on their honeymoon. The thesis was that love and human kindness are the antidotes to war. Poems are balms for the soul in this time of division and war. “Let us be kind to one another.”
Matthew Arnold’s poem “Dover Beach” with the famous ending: “Ignorant armies clash by night” culminating the beginning lines: “Let us be kind to one another.” One century ago, war because of colonialism and rivalries persist among “ignorant armies.”
Our powerlessness against the moral corrosion in our government challenges me daily. How could Americans be mere bystanders to ICE atrocities & war crimes? With a stroke of his DOGE pen, Elon Musk condemned 1/2 million children in the global South to die in misery. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/09/o...
Presidential candidate Kamala Harris answered on an interview that US’ greatest adversary was Iran. Whether this was a brain freeze— who knows. But I give Kamala 💐 for this 👇🏾
Anatomically incorrect left shoulder and left upper arm suggests AI manipulation 👇🏾
Sorry. This isn’t DEI. This FIOS what excellence looks like 👇🏾
Don’t forget renovations of the $400 million “flying palace” jet will cost US taxpayers $1 billion appropriated for missile projects.
One of these is not like the other: Senator Adam Schiff denounces the war with Iran.
This year the Pentagon had $150 billion windfall they hadn’t asked for and had no idea what to do with. But defense contractors’ lobbyists fixed it for them, so Trump’s ready to drop some bombs on the beautiful dark-haired children of the Middle East.
Board of Peace Mission = End United Nations Resolutions placing sanctions & End ICC referrals of despots committing war crimes &/or human rights violations. Up 👍🏽 with Board of Despot Peace and Down 👎🏼 with UN multilateral negotiations. Thank you for your attention to this matter (Irony is dead)
What a shame that fascist oligarchs will have monopoly on Loony Tunes
Subtext for Trump’s school yard taunt: Crude brag that his wife Melania’s more beautiful than Michelle. Michelle’s reputation as a beloved First Lady must irk him. Trump’s obsessed with ratings so news that viewership of Michelle’s 2020 Netflix documentary has surged 14,000% must be very sad for him
Hakeem Jeffries better whip this vote or be primaried. This is Lucy with football.
Bezos probably considers political minefields of WAPO not worth the hassle. F—ck him. It would warm my heart if Mackenzie Scott & Melinda French Gated purchased WAPO & rescued its journalistic reputation. Paging “good” billionaires!!! Sisterhood is powerful
