Are we great yet? Here's a guy who took a bullet for this country, turned his life around, spent 48 years here and now has to leave because of a 14 year old drug conviction. I hate this government. And the 77 million people who made it happen.

US bombings in Iran only set the nuclear program back a few months according to DIA assessment which was leaked to the press leading to Karoline Leavitt throwing a Class A hissy fit. Briefings on the intel for Congress also postponned. www.cnn.com/2025/06/24/p...

Look at this scared little Nazi boy with his hand on his gun. He needs to be back at home playing video games. These thugs indict all law enforcement because local cops are, by and large, not interfering. ACAB always

If they assault and beat you, I guess they're real ICE officers. The brutality is the point. But you won't know until you defy them because anyone can get all their gear on Amazon or other military gear stores. All I'd need is some nifty fake patches and voila! ICE officer.

Mike Johnson: "Many respected constitutional experts argue that the War Powers Act is itself unconstitutional. I’m persuaded by that argument. Many more scholars believe the president is correct to use this executive authority in exactly the manner that he did over the weekend." FASCISM

What it is all about is grabbing brown people. Status doesn't matter, it's all racism. After they've grabbed all the brown people they can, they will further criminalize blacks. More prisons, more gulags, Misery

It will literally be a giant open air prison. Somewhere Joe Arpaio applauds. It's an American gulag surrounded by alligators to catch anyone trying to flee. Sickening.

Trump admin sues Washington state, standing up for the right of Catholic priests to keep confessions of child abuse secret. I just can't here. Catholicism,and Jesus spoke very clearly about the evil of child abuse. And now in the name of religious fanaticism the Trump admin wants to protect abusers

Lunatic Southern Baptist ignoramuses speak out in The Guardian: “I’m not real political, and I don’t look at what’s going on a lot … for me it’s just processing towards the end of the world, and I think Israel will never be defeated again. That’s biblical.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

So this is where we are: Bove tells DOJ lawyers to tell courts "fuck you." I knew this was coming but to see it expressed so blatantly is still something of a shock. I think we've arrived at a fascist dictatorship with flagrant disregard of court orders.

What did they get? They got bupkis!

Just gotta love the Old Grey Lady: "Trump Stresses New Era in Speech to West Point Graduates President Trump gave the commencement address at the academy, which included references to his efforts to rid the military of diversity policies." Not 1 word about how utterly daft he was.

The face of Trump America's hate for gay people. This is what happens. Part of me knows America was always like this. I'm outraged but I shouldn't be surprised.

If she gets it, it will only be because Jeffries is willing to go to the mat with the Dems geriatric mafia to make it so. I'm rooting for her.

IF we can't win elections because we won't engage modern young men's racism, sexism and toxic masculine fragility, then maybe, just maybe, the country is beyond saving. If we told young men (looking at you Hogg) that gaming and getting laid was a life plan, what would we stand for?

They were praying to a hateful, spiteful racist god.

So now RFK Jr and the rest of his Army of Quacks will be inserting themselves between you and your doctor. And they will do everything to get Doctors to toe the line. Dystopia advancing on all fronts, unfortunately. www.politico.com/news/2025/05...

The scariest part of this clip is the line "root out the evils of anti-Americanism in society and campuses." It's a direct assault on the First Amendment. They will come for all of us eventually.

Where will World War III start? There are a lot of contenders but one of the biggest flashpoints could be the Arctic. Here is a BBC article laying out why: resources, shipping and strategic positioning. www.bbc.com/news/article...

The first "patriotic" holiday under Trump and all I feel is a heavy sadness that the sacrifices of so many led to their children and grandchildren living in a fascist dystopia. And he's just gotten started.

I find it somewhat humorous that they paid all this money, were served hospital quality food and Trump ducked out without even speaking to them. Suckers. Trump collects suckers wherever he goes

It's easy for Trump to beat up on Harvard and other Ivy league universities. It's because his voting bloc of Homers, Jethros and Betty Sues have always envied Harvard students as "uppity lib'ruls lookin' down their noses at us honest folk." Hell, they're cheering this.

Somewhere Sinclair Lewis is saying "I told you so."

Another Saturday morning with strong coffee, news and listening to our local classical music station (WQED) trying to remember that there is still art and beauty in America and that the fruits of decent civilization are still there to be found and appreciated.

Once again, like it or not, in US politics, appearances are everything. After the disastrous debate performance, Biden was toast. A lot can be forgiven in US politics but appearing weak, feeble and confused, even for a few minutes, is unforgiveable. But Trump of course, overcomes that

I've seen better meals in hospitals

David Plouffe should never be allowed near any Democratic candidate ever again.

Executioners never look at their victims. Even if they were once members of the same family. Nothing personal, you understand, just business. For billionaires. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Would YOU take a job in America making Iphones at sub-minimum wage? That's why they don't get made in America. Tell Trump.

The Trump administration looks at brown children the same way the IDF looks at Palestinian children. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

(Free article) David Wallace-Wells does a brilliant job of tracing the social and cultural changes from the Pandemic period that brought us to this perilous state of affairs. Well worth the read. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

The impossible leftist purity standards of "don't be a sex monster" and "maybe don't let your political donors kill elderly people in their care while hawking your book about how you solved covid"

Truth. The beast you create will always eventually turn 'round on you.

|Erasure of people and ideas are a hallmark of fascism.

What I believe we are now seeing is the end of the "Allied" or allies era in US history. What's happening is we are seeing the formation of a Washington-Moscow Axis, perhaps soon to be the Washington-Moscow-Beijing Axis powers as they seek to divvy up the world into three controlling spheres.

A roomful of semi-literate suckers who voted for Trump. They get what they voted for.

"Talkin' 'bout a Revolution" - Are Americans up to the task? We take a shot at the latest from our Imperial President and what it means to all of us now and in the future. Is the resistance up to the task?

This is a short 15 minute bonus episode on President's Day I record this podcast in a bomb shelter built into the house in 1956. It got me thinking what being in a bomb shelter represents. I also remembered "The Shelter" episode from The Twilight Zone that scared me so much as a kid.

My God they're straight up rewriting history

They should have refused (agents will be killed because of this) and then formed a hit team. As the CIA goes, so goes America.

24 Democratic Senators voted for the VA nominee who is an election denier. They're not going to save us, only themselves.

Even God wants the Army to step in and put things right
