That’s nice, Jeffy, but far far too little and way too late to buy back any credibility.

The Washington Post @washingtonpost.com · 1d

The policy says reporters cannot obtain or solicit any information the Defense Department does not explicitly authorize.

Media members that don't sign the policy by its deadline have 24 hours to turn in their media credentials and clear out of Pentagon facilities.

This idiot keeps bragging about the 20 hostages being released in another country while he's kidnapping thousands of people a day here in America.

Fuck him and the fascism he rode in on.

Today is the last day of my subscription. Been reading WaPo for 47 years. It’s profoundly sad that Bezos has turned a once magnificent read into fishwrap paper.

Democracy does indeed die in darkness.

Bezos joins Muskrat, Murdoch and the other billionaire boys in turning out the lights.

Lmao WaPo has fewer than 100K circulation now. It turns out “alienate your liberal subscriber base” is not a good strategy when the Republicans also hate you. www.forbes.com/sites/andyme...

The Washington Post Is Running Out Of Readers Willing To Pay

Once a titan of American journalism, The Washington Post now struggles to reach even 100,000 print subscribers most days.

From my point of view, the correct form of the word in the context of MAGAism is “Christian” with sarcastic parentheses.

The design of the Glock allows the gun to be easily modified with a Lego-sized piece of plastic known as a "Glock Switch" that can be 3-D printed to turn it into a fully automatic weapon

Gov. Gavin Newsom signs law banning new Glock sales in California

Glocks are among the most popular handguns sold in California. Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a bill that bans Californians from buying new Glock guns in the state.

Sorry about the timing, dude. By coincidence it’s also the last day of my subscription to the Bezos fishwrap paper. No connection to you of course. Best of luck to you.

There are not many things that environmental activists and defence officials agree on but here we find great common ground.

Restoring wetlands along NATO’s eastern flank would fuse two European priorities that increasingly compete for resources: defence and climate.

It will be an interesting city council meeting when the locals hear the permit request for the new halal butcher and food purveyor.

#BlueSkyVets The arrival of Qatari nationals, will present cultural nuances, communication styles, & differing societal norms.

These people complained Mexicans were stealing their jobs…Trump & Hegseth is fulfilling the the ‘jumbo’ jet gift; your thoughts?
