Now that the GOP is pushing to use budget reconciliation to fund what may be the most unpopular part of government, I'm starting to wonder whether Republicans are deliberately setting things up for a Democratic blue wave in the midterms so it won't fall to them to impeach Trump.

The administration’s recent actions suggest Trump and Hegsweth are behaving like insecure adolescents, provoking conflicts that put service members at risk to project toughness and feed Trump’s ego.

Just a bit brightness for the day

Dignified, respected, respectful, loved, noble, composed, intelligent, caring. No drama and no scandals, just two hard working men who did the work required of them. Our children’s children will admire these men in the years to come. #ReleaseTheUnredactedEpsteinFiles #SheShed #Pinks

I have a question If an officer is placed in a school specifically to protect our children, but cannot be held accountable for doing nothing while a shooter walks through the halls, then why the hell are they even there?

He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

Worried that selling spyware will get you sanctioned by the US? Don't be. Under Trump, a few million in crypto is all it takes to make those sanctions disappear. www.ms.now/opinion/trum...

Interesting question that came to mind this past week. If you are sending Coast Guard Boats down to Argentina to pirate oil tankers doesn't that reduce the number of boats in US coastal waters to handle maritime issues and halt drugs boats in US waters? Is reduced drug interdiction the goal?

Stand by for an ego-fueled meltdown. Trump will be awake all night, flooding Truth Social with rants about loyalty. www.politico.com/news/2025/12...

So with all the Lawyers posting on BSKY why doesn't at least one of them explain how the F%$^& a board of Idiots, whose job is to manage the Memorials operation, change a Statute put in place by Congress in order to add Trump's name. Did Trump's appointing them give them power over Congress?

It is so very interesting that every Woman in Trump's Administration that does things, or supports his actions, that go against everything that Jesus taught makes a big deal of wearing a crucifix. Could it be due to Hope God and real Christians will ignore their actions.

You know what really bothers me about Trump's "Drug War" is that he, and Hegseth, are using lousy tactics. Unlike the Police they are attacking the little guys, the alleged drug runners, and not the big ships who pick up from them. Why? Is it that his Buddies own the ships and say who to hit?

The Coast Guard captures massive drug ships with fewer sailors and smaller vessels than the Navy. So why are Navy captains afraid to do it? They should be capturing these runners to prove they're stopping crime, instead of just resorting to lethal force. Suggests it isn't about drugs atc all.

Damn! Will someone in the DoD please slap Hegseth in the back of the head and explain to him what the "Fog of War means. It describes the difficulty in knowing the true strengths, weaknesses, and intentions of the enemy not a military facing unarmed boats or survivors. www.ft.com/content/5566...

Really? This is what they are turning too since it was shown that the Shooter was given Asylum by the Trump Administration? abcnews.go.com/Politics/noe...

Top MAGA Influencers Accidentally Unmasked as Foreign Trolls Elon Musk’s social media site X has rolled out a new feature in an effort to increase transparency—and unwittingly revealed that many of the site’s top MAGA influencers are actually foreign actors. www.thedailybeast.com/top-maga-inf...

ROFL! Solicitor General D. John Sauer trying to tell Supreme Court that Taxpayers are not paying the tariffs.

With The Post now covering how little he cares about the health care of his Constituents it looks like Sen. Fetterman has now fully taken up Sen Joe Manchin's place as the top "fake Democrat. nypost.com/2025/10/25/m...

It's notable that of the three Democrats conceding to the GOP right now two are from the same state that produced MTG; who is shifting left on health care, and the the third a stroke victim who perhaps should have resigned after his stroke.

This evening's great egret

TGIF

Sharing a beautiful night.

Maybe this will brighten your day.

When GOP Party Member Rep. Cory Mills, of Florida, claims his phone broke causing the loss of nude photos and sex videos, you know you’re dealing with a first-class stalker flimflam. Most ten-year-olds could see right through that crap. www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

It gets very interesting when you notice some of the States that are sending National Guard to DC because of it's "high" crime rates.

Handing Trump a board seat at Intel makes about as much sense as betting the farm on a rigged slot machine. But Lutnick’s sycophantic cheerleading insists on it anyway—and, trust me, Trump would bankrupt the place faster than last call in Atlantic City. www.cnbc.com/2025/08/19/l...

With all the stressful news I thought "Why not post a flower to brighten everyone's day".

So we pay higher prices from Trump’s tariffs, then get a rebate later? Feels more like a distraction tactic than an economic plan—just enough smoke to keep his base from asking questions. Like about Epstein. www.yahoo.com/news/videos/...

I despise this man-child.

A grim day on BlueSky and X when Trump's and Bondi's sleight of hand around the Epstein List scandal draws more attention than the mass killing of 85 civilians queuing for food. www.cnn.com/2025/07/20/m...

Why is Trump pushing Coke to use an ingredient made from a plant primarily grown abroad—that’ll cost more due to his own tariffs and hurt American farmers? Is it about sweetening soda or sweetening a deal for one of his Mar-a-Lago pals with a sugar cane empire in Brazil? www.bbc.com/news/article...

Why would Trump push Coca-Cola to use an ingredient made from a plant primarily grown abroad—one that’ll cost more thanks to his own tariffs and leave American farmers in the dust? Is this about sweetening soda or sweetening a deal for one of his Mar-a-Lago pals with a sugar cane empire in Brazil?

Another nice evening

FUN FACT: Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.

I have one thing I have to say today about some on Bluesky. If you have your posts set up so that the only certain Chosen People can reply then you are no different then those on X. Isn't that the reason we moved from X? To get away who posters who only wanted to hear from those who agreed

There's an irony in the fact that a Party devoted to a man who appears to have shattered the Ten Commandments more times than anyone can count is also pushing to display those very commandments in schools. Is the idea that students should use them as a scorecard to track his greatest hits?
