A person who consistently constructs honors to himself is a narcissistic fool honoring a sociopathic idiot.

They are beating people who maybe once had a broken taillight and sending them to foreign slave prisons while freeing the worst fraudsters and every corrupt pol. The juxtaposition is so stark and appalling.

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

Sen. Mark Kelly: “President Trump is trying to silence me. Threatening to kill me for saying what is true. And he sent his Secretary of Defense after me. And it's not going to work.”

NEW: President Trump has never before been in such an echo chamber His domestic travel has basically stopped. He sees rich donors and MAGA media, not actual voters Everyone around him is saying he is right. But polls show more Americans think he is wrong www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime. If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder. It’s that simple.

Nobody outside this country is wondering, like the pundit class does, what was wrong with Kamala Harris. Everybody outside this country is wondering what’s wrong with US.

Bash: "Do you believe if there was a second strike to eliminate any survivors that it constitutes a war crime?" Mark Kelly: "It seems to." Bash: "If you received that order, would you have carried it out?" Mark Kelly: "No…Going after survivors in the water is unlawful."

Former US military lawyers speak out: "The Former JAGs Working Group unanimously considers both the giving and the execution of these orders, if true, to constitute war crimes, murder, or both." Statement on Media Reports of Pentagon “No Quarter” Orders in Caribbean Boat Strikes 1/2

Absolutely. Doing this remotely with drones or bombs is no different than pulling up in a boat and shooting them in the water. If this isn’t an illegal order, hard to imagine what could be.

Every single congressional Democrat needs to be out there, right now, insisting that Pete Hegseth resign right now and announcing that he will be held accountable for committing war crimes. If you do not demand accountability here and now, they will only become more emboldened.

The 'psyops' revealed by X are entirely the fault of the perverse incentives created by social media monetization programs.

Want to hear from the people who resigned rather than participate in Trump’s serial killings on water

Apparently, Trump sycophant Pete Hegseth failed to grasp how despised his arrogant speech before military officers was. So now he wants to go after heroic veteran and astronaut Sen. Mark Kelly for speaking up for the Constitution? Can’t wait to see this former Fox weekend host out of a job.

BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling. 🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states. This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

The Founding Fathers required Senate confirmation for key appointments for a reason. Donald Trump doesn’t like that reason. It’s to ensure high ranking government officials are loyal to the country not just the president. That’s not what Trump wants. joycevance.substack.com/p/explanatio...

If there's one thing the mainstream news media love to overlook, it's the impact of the mainstream news media. The petite Tea Party in all its elite-backed astroturfiness was hailed like a sacred comet; the historically huge No Kings was played down by the NY Times, among other publications.

Listen, Trump. Your continued threats will not intimidate me or keep me from doing my job, which includes oversight of the executive branch. Stop the threats of execution, hanging, and sending a mob before someone gets hurt. America deserves better.

Senator Mark Kelly says he first learned of the DOD investigation against him (which may lead to court martial proceedings) via social media.

Again, every elected Democrat needs to put out a video stating exactly what Kelly and the others said. If ever there were a line to draw in the sand, it’s here. The military is not the president’s Praetorian Guard.

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

Going after a popular Senator and Astronaut and husband of a national treasure will not go the way these dog shit guzzling Nazis will think

The “Department of War” is investigating Sen. Mark Kelly for saying troops must refuse illegal orders. Since when is citing the UCMJ a crime? Impeach this un-American disgrace in the Oval Office! Why shift from defense to war? Is empire-building now the plan? Respectfully,

Hegseth is now threatening to recall Sen. Mark Kelly to active duty in order to court martial him.

Ex Trump WH Lawyer Ty Cobb: “The Constitution is not adequate to deal with a President as evil as Trump, whose desire is to accumulate & abuse power - total authoritarianism… lawyers, judges, the military don’t have to follow illegal orders even though they have been rampantly.”

Mark Kelly: "The message he sent a couple days ago was he declared that loyalty to the Constitution is now punishable by death. Those are serious words coming from the president. He's trying to intimidate us. But I'm not going to be intimidated."

If you receive an illegal order, you have a duty to disobey. This isn’t controversial. A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.

Its very very bad that the President publicly posts a statement that, were I to post the same thing about him, would have the FBI knocking on my door.

BREAKING: The U.S. Coast Guard just announced they won’t classify swastikas and nooses as hate symbols anymore they’re calling them ‘potentially divisive.’ Potentially divisive? Listen, a noose isn’t a conversation starter. A swastika isn’t a debate topic. They are dangerous hate symbols. Full stop

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted. If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Important: House Dem leaders just said Trump's call for execution of Dems has prompted them to contact US Capitol Police and House Sergeant at Arms to "ensure the safety of these members and their families." Treat Trump like an unhinged menace. He's weak and in deep political trouble. Don't let up.

It’s unfathomable how much great science the US government is responsible for only to let a deranged crank shit all over it

Shame on Rep. Clay Higgins & shame on anyone who thinks this is acceptable. This man didn’t just cast the lone “no” vote on exposing a global sex-trafficking network… he also grabbed a citizen for daring to ask a question he didn’t like. I hope this young man presses charges.

My literal life goal is to never actually hear Trump’s voice ever again

This is so so disturbing. Trump is now pardoning January 6th rioters for unrelated crimes, just to reward them for their violence to keep him in power. The Republican Party is in the full time business of endorsing and incentivizing political violence. So scary.

There is absolutely nothing old or consolidated about *multiracial, pluralistic democracy* in America. It only started 60 years ago. And the conflict over whether or not it should be allowed to endure and prosper has been the central fault line in U.S. politics ever since.

President Trump: "And then I'm going to call her Marjorie Taylor BROWN, because Green grass turns Brown when it begins to ROT!" Other people in the room also awaiting their brain MRI: "That's brilliant!"

The crisis of elite impunity that is ruining our society cannot be more clearly or convincingly demonstrated than with the fact that all of these people wrote all this stuff into an email and hit Send.

Megyn Kelly is not just problematic in her defense of Trump and Epstein…she is emblematic of the decline in humanity infesting the Republican Party. The double standard for the definition of a child. The excuses…the rot at the center of the GOP. open.substack.com/pub/jesspipe...
