I still can't believe they're trying to make a war happen out of thin air. Not just their abrogation of Congress's role in formally declaring a war -- that's been a slippery slope for decades -- but their total unwillingness even to go through the motions of drumming up public support.

i really hate that rumfeld's "known unknowns" is constantly mocked because it's a legitimately really useful description

I genuinely hate how many Trumpisms have worked their way into my daily speech. He operates at the perfect level of buffoonery.
