Today marks 106 years since my great uncle, PVT Sylvester Stephen Payne, died of pneumonia in France on the final day of WWI. His last letter home to his father, my great grandfather, was written two months earlier.

People who think like this have no business in the business of war. It's not heroic to watch someone die alone and in pain. It's not honorable to watch someone cry to their God or their mother. We have Laws about such things.

So it’s not about the drugs????? But Republicans are just gonna shrug while we invade Venezuela because of drugs. What the fuck are we doing? When is it enough with these clowns? Are they willing to burn our entire country down to be king of the ashes? Remove this sociopath.

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.

CNN, NYT, AP, and other media orgs literally have interviewed families of people killed in Caribbean boat strikes, including some who say they were just fishermen. Lies nested within lies, all in service of violating the laws of armed combat, for no evident national interest advancement at all.

Today in history, 1863: Lincoln delivers a 272-word address at the dedication of a military cemetery in Gettysburg, Penn. It became one of the greatest speeches in U.S. history, expressing Lincoln’s conviction that the Civil War was a struggle for a “new birth of freedom.” /1

For every surveillance state to function, there must be a critical mass of people who willingly act as snitches to further the regime's ideology. I lived through this firsthand, money isn't the motivating factor for these people, it's the satisfaction of seeing people they hate suffer

With so much abuse of power by ICE around the country, it’s important to remember there are plenty of DHS employees performing their duties in a respectful manner. And without a paycheck. Kudos to the CBP officer at Newark airport who conducted our return interview yesterday. He thanked us!

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 80th day out of the last 92. The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown. It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

The governor is the commander in chief of his/her national guard units. No need to request federal approval to deploy units in state service. Unless you don’t want to use state funds to pay for that deployment. This is performative BS on Landry’s part.

1. We should talk about two weekend stories and what they say about the true objective of Donald Trump. First, the admin closed a bribery investigation of Tom Homan. Before Trump was reelected, Homan took a $50K bag of cash from an undercover FBI agent, per Reuters.

Trump aide Homan accepted $50,000 in bribery sting operation, sources say
In the alleged scheme, Homan promised immigration-related government contracts when he joined the Trump administration in exchange for the money.

Exactly like with the assassination attempt on Trump, the right has decided to ignore the actual identity of the shooter and instead pretend that the entire left end of the political spectrum was behind it. Their feelings don't care about facts.

The White House Press Secretary, the official spokesperson for the Trump administration, told reporters in an official briefing that the president wants to invade "every Democrat-run city" with troops. Any media still pretending that this is about "crime" is making a conscious choice to lie to you.
