During Tuesday’s hearing, Gabbard told Warner that the Signal thread didn’t share any classified information but refused to share its contents, or even admit that she was on the chain.

“If it’s not classified, share the texts now,” Warner told Gabbard. “Share it with the committee. You can’t have it both ways. These are important jobs. This is our national security.”

Bitch, we can smell the bullshit 500 miles away.

    Yes, these are people’s lives, and now everyone is mad that Trump is being incompetent about murdering those people. The only sane reaction to a dictator failing to massacre a population is happiness that he’s not competent about it. The reactions I’m seeing only imply that liberals are okay with the actual bombing and only mad that Trump is not following opsec. By the way I’m not MAGA; leftists hate liberals too.

      No one is upset about the incompetence threatening our ability to murder Yemenis, they’re attacking them for being incompetent broadly. It could have been plans for arming Ukraine or where our spy satellites are looking and the reaction would be the same: “look at these incompetent MAGAs fucking up governing” with an extra glee at being able to tag it as “national security” that conservatives lean into so heavily.

      And they weren’t incompetent at murder. The murders went through just fine, because very little of the actual operation was handled by this crowd of idiots and some combination of a US citizen being rightly scared of his government and assuming our murders are justified and should not be hindered.

      None of this is to say liberals aren’t morally bankrupt about our well oiled murder machine, just that they’re not angry about the risk to the murder operation. They don’t care one way or another whether some Arabs got murdered. Haven’t before and don’t now.

        Yeah I know; that’s what I was trying to criticize here. They care so little that to them whether Trump goes about it competently or not is more important than the fact that the US military just killed 53 Yemenis. Notice that I said they’re okay with it, not that they like it. I guess what’s pissing me off is that the people here on the Fediverse were supposed to be (and certainly think of themselves as) better than that.

      By the way I’m not MAGA; leftists hate liberals too.

      Uniting around a shared hate of liberals is how the weird leftist/MAGA alliance happened.

      It’s why leftists give MAGA a free pass on things like genocide.

      That’s why you prioritize posting about randoms on social media you perceive to be liberals, and not the people dropping the actual bombs.

        Most blueMAGA thing I’ve seen today, but just in case leftists don’t in fact give MAGA a pass on genocide. Gaza protests are going as strong as ever, and if anything most leftists (that I’ve seen around here) are unwilling to even entertain the idea of breaking with liberals.

          You’re the most MAGA I’ve seen today, not that I’ve been online that much.

          From real activists, not a weird lemmy rando whose highest priority is beefing with liberals (actual or perceived), to prove what a “leftist” they are.

      I read that as the typical finger pointing, it’s only okay when our side commits the atrocity, thanks for clarifying.
