The litmus test will be, whether they will follow illegal orders, like the NAZI Generals did.

Well… the whole world can now see that the emperor is naked. How embarrassing.

So after over 8K complains of sexual assault in the military in 2024 alone, Unqualified Pete Hegseth declares his answer: “No more anonymous complains... no more walking on eggshells.” Just like Trump, instead of addressing the problem, he is silencing the victims.

Trump appears to really be struggling with the lack of audience reaction. What a low energy, meandering, incoherent dumpster fire of a speech this is

Trump- openly promoting killing instead of capturing criminals.. no one is fishing anymore.

This now covers the words from both of them bsky.app/profile/plan...

The flew the entire military leadership in so they could see for themselves that the Secretary of Defense is a mouthbreathing dipshit and the Commander in Chief is a senile, weak old man who might keel over at any moment.

Rest assured, if the September jobs report doesn’t drop because of a shutdown, you’ll know exactly what happened. We’re living in the era where “no news” is basically confirmation of government collapse.

This is the cringiest MF on the planet. He’s actually saying this to our most senior military officers from around the world.

The Secretary of Defense who only got the job because the president saw him on the teevee is complaining about military leaders who were promoted "for the wrong reasons"

We have an assclown as Secretary of defense

Whiskey Pete summoned the top military brass from around the world to call them fat.

i'm guessing this is for his buddies who have been accused of war crimes or blatant racism

FYI. If the Govt shuts down, everyone stays in town including the president but you’re just bored with nothing to do because it’s all messaging and negotiations. GREAT TIME TO RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

Hundreds of generals and admirals had to fly in from all over the world so Pete Kegseth can live out his Patton fantasies.

And after 40 minutes of cringe-Thunderous applause from the generals! Just kidding. Total silence. 👀 🦗 🦗

Imagine getting flown out of your command to hear this idiot ramble about politics and the Gulf of America

Make it stop. Bla bla baby trump babbling to the generals while everyone yawns.

A shutdown gives Trump a stage for firings. He could use furloughs as “proof” that jobs are unnecessary, revive Schedule F to strip protections, and push permanent cuts. Temporary pain, lasting damage. Mike Johnson knows this.

This is the most inept administration to let the government shut down. Is it because then there will not be a vote to release the Epstein files? This regime is holding us hostage and Mike Johnson is enabling it to the detriment of Americans! We deserve better than this! #ThisIsTrumpsShutdown

Two civil rights attorneys who had spoken out against the Trump administration’s efforts to weaken enforcement of the Fair Housing Act were dismissed from their posts. Their work enforcing the Fair Housing Act (a cornerstone of U.S. civil rights) involved investigating and prosecuting landlords,

The party of NO responsibility! Gotta always blame someone else.

So…let me see if I have this right. The federal government is gonna shut down in 30hrs, and the party that controls the ENTIRE federal government is trying to blame the party that controls NONE of the federal government for the looming shutdown?

Another big tech company capitulated today as YouTube agreed to pay $24.5 million to settle a bogus lawsuit brought by Trump. Here's what I can promise you: Democracy Docket will never bow down. It will never compromise. It will never obey. Support the work of its 20 person team. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

They’re not law enforcement. They’re terrorists.

It's being reported time and time again that ICE agents are a group of paid thugs. They are not law enforcement agents. They are law breaking gestapo thugs.

ILLINOIS — BROADVIEW POLICE CHIEF ON ICE: “I was shocked. I’ve never been spoken to by a fellow law enforcement officer in such a way.” ICE is routinely gassing cops and negatively impacting the community as their detention facility faces protests.

Mass shootings in the US, per Gun Violence Archive: 2015: 332 2016: 383 2017: 347 2018: 335 2019: 414 2020: 611 2021: 689 2022: 644 2023: 659 2024: 503 So far in 2025...324 mass shootings in just 272 days. We do not have to keep living like this.

📌Just this weekend alone, an Iraqi war vet pulled up to a bar in his boat, and murdered people, while another drove his truck to a church, slaughtered people, and burned others alive. 📌How many more troubled war vets with easy access to weaponry are out there? Why isn't this a national discussion?

Wright is just wrong- coal was increasing global warming, killing northeast lakes from acid rain (sulfur), emitting harmful pollutants like mercury, and coal mining devastates landscapes. For an MIT grad, he is just offscale ignorant.

Coal jobs were lost due to automation. Western coal surpassed eastern coal due to the three-fold combination of easier access to the coal (near the surface), better railroad access, and less sulfur content (so less acid rain).

🧵Coal in the US was mostly dying because of cheap natural gas beginning in the 2000s. Then cheap renewables began to clobber it in the 2010s. It is a filthy power source and horrible emitter of greenhouse gases. There is zero economic justification for this & it will amount to corporate welfare.

It’s so important for New Jersey to turnout for Mikie Sherrill by Nov 4: If 47 thinks he needs to send troops into “war ravaged Portland” what happens when he decides the only way to save Cherry Hill is to carpet bomb it? Can we trust any R to say so much as “bad idea”? #VoteNJ

China has not bought a single soybean from the U.S. in over 3 months, thanks to Trump's disastrous tariffs. https://www.politico.com/news/2025/09/28/soybeans-sacrificed-in-trumps-china-gamble-00583232?utm_content=politico/magazine/Politics&utm_source=flipboard

Spare us your hypocrisy, Pam.

yeah they're just murdering random people on these boats

He's a 24K POS! 💩

Trump obviously didn't *read* anything. Probably the same official quoted here told him what everyone in MAGA-land needed him to hear so he would cancel talks. They're nosediving the country, starting with the federal government, so that control freak billionaires can buy it all up for pennies.

Trump to middle class and poor voters of all colors and creeds: DROP DEAD!!!!!!

I remember when White House officials didn't say "sh*t" and "f*ck". I miss the decency.

apple.news/AUG_PpOVDQFy... This guy wants so much for himself he tells people how to please him. Sound familiar? !Epstein!
