We have received comments that the feed feels heavily congested, difficult to get through as well as intimidating due to such high volume of posts. We’d ask that individual members limit their daily posts to 2 or 3, so that we don’t monopolize on the space and keep it inviting for new contributors, as well as make it easier to catch up on the feed for those who log in.

In his Recent speech about the mid-terms, Trump claimed U.S should've destroyed Iran 51 years ago. He emphasized that its was supposed to happen 51 years ago and not 47. Now 51 years ago, Iran was ruled by the Shah. The revolution happened 47 years ago. What reason would the U.S have to go agaisnt the shah? I'm starting to feel like this is isn't a war against the regime, but rather Iran as a civilization. Lindsey Graham had even said this should've been done 2,000 years ago.

This is the 60 minutes interview of one of the pilots who was shot down and rescued in Iran. Amazing guy, exemplary Airman. Aim high, fly, fight, win. 🇺🇸 https://youtu.be/KNhO1Umj1so?is=e9dmYCdekU8jR3L5

The most intriguing impressions of 19th and early 20th century America through the eyes of people born in the 1830, 40s and 50s. So riveting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-5DCZ4uTFY

Rogers was among Republicans who voted against the 2010 James Zadroga Act to fund healthcare for 9/11 first responders and survivors, which was used in part to treat and monitor 40,000 people who worked in toxic conditions in the attack’s aftermath. The bills’ funding also helped treat responders for more than 50 types of cancer linked to exposures at Ground Zero. In committee, Rogers argued it “jeopardizes the financial health of the United States”. Rogers was joined by 156 other Republicans who voted against it, largely over its $5.1bn price tag, but 17 GOP members broke from the party and supported it. The final package passed the House over Rogers’ vote. “Here’s the thing: Republicans like Mike Rogers love cops and firefighters until one gets shot or burned in a fire and can’t do his job,” Feal said. “That’s their playbook. They say: ‘You’re a hero. Oh, wait, you’re sick? You’re a drain on the municipality and the federal government. Get out of here.’” Rogers sent an email to supporters criticizing El-Sayed over his 9/11 comments, and appeared to lie about seeing Osama bin Laden’s body. In a bold-typed section of the email, Rogers wrote: “I saw the dead body of Osama bin Laden with my own eyes, knowing that together, we had delivered justice for America.” But Rogers was not in Pakistan when Bin Laden was killed by US special forces, nor was he in the White House Situation Room, where then president Barack Obama and senior administration officials followed the raid.
