For the record, our division commander BANNED things called “presence patrols” in Iraq. “If you don’t have a specific task & purpose, your ‘presence’ doesn’t do anything.” National Guard stating they are now doing presence patrols in DC. A complete waste of soldier’s time & effort.

“Both of them.”

In light of Tulsi’s recent ridiculous claims, a friend just posted this old explainer from 6 years ago about the scope of the Russia investigation that I’d completely forgotten about! 😂 youtu.be/o-CCxLmkn-w?...

My home of Missoula just voted to establish the pride flag as an official government flag of the city, thereby circumventing the state's asinine pride flag ban. 🏳️‍🌈 Missoula is once again showing how to fight back against policies that seek to erase the LGBTQ community.
