"If you see something that comes out that's a crock, speak up and rebut." Senator Mark Warner hopes members of the intelligence community will speak up if Trump tries to invent a crisis to take over the voting system.

I suspect we’re going to find out these next few years how serious our military was about protecting our democracy. I’m worried they’ll fail that test. @usarmy.bsky.social @navytimes.bsky.social @airforcetimes.bsky.social @armytimes.bsky.social @deptofwar.bsky.social

My guess is that military personnel willing to do obvious war crimes abroad won't really mind shooting Americans.

Oracle just fired 30,000 workers via email after a 95% profit surge - tech companies are cutting almost 1,000 jobs/day ⚠️ All the while, we give them tax reductions and incentives with the promise of job creation... We need to change course and support smaller businesses instead

Facts spoken by an ex-trumper...

I'm sure any serviceman that became captured by Iran wouldn't suffer any consequences of trump's rhetoric...

Jeff Bezos has $222 billion. If he paid my wealth tax this year, we could fund insulin in America for everyone who needs it plus free school lunch for every kid in Texas—and have plenty of money left over. And Bezos would still have $215 billion dollars to spare.

If you think this is a coincidence, you aren't paying attention:

Dr Stacey Patton: They’re not gonna force you to wrestle with the fact that the same spirit that put Jesus on that cross still shows up in power, in politics, and in the language of domination today.

Every day, every hour, every minute, I become more and more ashamed that we let this man and his hateful cult following lead the USA.

As a historian, I've always been careful with the word "fascism." We've all seen how it shuts down debate when everyone throws it at everything they don't like. But at some point, being careful with the word starts to mean being blind to the thing itself.

Of course. Their job is to be the controlled opposition, preventing the Left from ever being able to get a foothold.

Project 25 playbook came straight from Orban!!!

Trump wants to increase the defense budget by nearly 50% without any review of what the money is for; this is strategic nonsense, and has to be understood as a payoff for the men who, as he imagines, will help him install a dictatorship.

“Better to die in Iran for your country and your pride, Then to live in a nation that would ask you to be kind.” Thank You Jesse Welles!

When someone has it

THIS is the kind of Democrat I want!!!!

Spot on.

Mockler has bigger balls than ALL of the so called "journalists!"

The president's first post since an F-16 was shot down over Iran with one American still missing.

An AG pushed out, a war message that rattles markets, and a direct challenge to birthright citizenship at the Supreme Court.

Do you remember when private citizen Trump and then 2016 presidential candidate Trump pretended to be anti-war? When he said US wars in the Middle East had “bled our country dry,”... “wasting lives and money” overseas? When he insisted that those billions should be used at home to “rebuild the USA”?

"The cable warned that foreign adversaries wanted to sow division in the United States and among its allies while promoting alternative worldviews, the officials said." 🧐

Thank you for your service Governor. You would make an excellent senator.

US Army Chief of Staff Randy George has been asked to step down by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and ‌take immediate retirement, two defense officials and a source familiar with the matter told Reuters reut.rs/4togFhR

Early morning food for thought about Corporate Dems 🤔🤔 www.facebook.com/reel/8859843...

What he says…

"We need a 5% wealth tax on America’s 938 billionaires. Over a ten-year period, this bill would raise much-needed $4.4tn for public coffers," writes @sanders.senate.gov. "Let’s choose democracy over oligarchy."

One of the many reasons I'm glad she's shit-canned. Now, let's put her on trial.

I don’t know why American Catholics think doing the “he doesn’t actually understand the United States plus he was talking in general terms not specific ones” schtick will work with a pope who is both from the US and also clearly follows the news

Bondi gave up all her integrity to keep her job; now she will leave with neither.

Pete Hegseth sent U.S. troops to fight and die in Iran. Was he trying to cash in on the war behind closed doors? This would be a massive betrayal. I’m pressing for a full investigation NOW.

Ditto!

He is not worth the end of our Republic, an imperfect but determined two-hundred-and-fifty-year experiment in Democracy having its life and liberty choked out by a sneering, narcissistic, intellectually fetal, morally bankrupt bottom feeder. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/he-is-not-...

Just in: The suits are the most ambitious effort to date that the Trump administration has gone to try to override state laws and set the rules for the fast-growing and increasingly divisive betting industry.

All over the country ICE is spending billions to divert local law enforcement to federal immigration enforcement. www.daytondailynews.com/local/ice-ag...

Trump: we are the only country in the world stupid enough to allow birthright citizenship Also Trump: my mother came here from Scotland Also Trump: my father's parents came here from Germany Also Trump: all my kids but one have mothers who weren't US citizens when they were born
