Could somebody,anybody, research and post a story about enlistment and retention statistics in our all-volunteer military?

I’m so confused. Does Hegseth think there are enough willing, white, trim men to populate the entire military??

Was anybody, anywhere, calling for the release of the Amelia Earhart files??

Also, Board Members are susceptible to public pressure. Address your letters to these folks too, in care of Disney.

Have all y'all read this? It's wild, and explains a lot. No more super-sized love notes from this dictator. How a Top Secret SEAL Team 6 Mission Into North Korea Fell Apart www.nytimes.com/2025/09/05/u...

I wish some journalist would ask JDV if all the people he thinks should be showing gratitude should be thanking him, specifically, because that’s sure what it sounds like.

Even in deep Blue CT, pediatricians enter the room making the case for routine childhood vaccines. assuming they are about to hear some “I did my own research” BS. It’s nuts.

Honestly, what did the CDC director think she was getting into when she accepted the appointment? She’s the only human in America who is surprised by this.

Apparently, it is no longer the case that one can indict a ham sandwich.

Turns out my long standing Cracker Barrel boycott was prescient.

I call BS. These little red bags are used for handing out chocolates and sometimes cash to children on Chinese New Year. Any one who is volunteering on even a rudimentary campaign in a fund raising capacity knows they can’t hand out cash to anyone, much less a reporter.

Perhaps they could create some sort of gold-plated Nobel Participation Trophy to mollify our 5-year-old FOTUS?? He probably never got to play Tee Ball.

I want a statement from every Democratic Governor today in response to Gov. Newsom. Don’t leave him hanging people. Show the same spine!

Gladly!

His many minions will all also get fat media deals, including with legacy media outlets, so they can attempt to justify themselves ad infinitum.

And it’s a quick jump to making 14 the age of consent. This is really scary stuff.

Most States have a date certain by which districts for the coming election must be set. Anybody know what the deadline is in Texas??

Ashamed of my alma mater today. Both because they took the knee and because $50 Million in this context sounds like such chump change. They’re dead to me.

To clarify, FOTUS always knew he was in the Epstein Files because he was on the Epstein plane, in multiple videos partying with children together, and the list goes on and on. None of this is a surprise. He just thought MAGA would find a reason not to care, and many have.

I have no idea what message this carrot was sent to impart, but it is creepy as hell.

ATTN: If you’re one of the 1,000 FBI agents who reviewed the Epstein files, feel free to reach out to me via signal (in my bio). I’ll keep you anonymous- as I have the thousands of current and former federal workers who have sent me tips. Please share this widely. 🙏🏻

Not enough attention being paid to the fact that the dude who gave Epstein the sweetheart guilty plea deal was given a cabinet level position in the first FOTUS administration. But sure, he always meant to release the list.

The world may be collapsing about us, but at least we've solved the Presidential Cankle mystery. Happy weekend everybody!

At a small town farmers market in VT, the home-made dog treat guy suddenly had alligator shaped dog cookies with the word Alcatraz stamped on them. My pup sure is going to miss his favorites!

There is no city, state or federal district where it is legal to terrorize and detain people for being brown and working in agriculture. These raids must stop immediately. 8/

I'm having trouble understanding the outrage over the Epstein list. Did they not see the dozens of pictures of FOTUS with the dude? With Ghislaine? His name on the plane manifests? Did anyone serious think he or his minions would ever release the information?

FYI @nytimes.com, it is not the function of this or any administration to "find" that a civil institution violated any law. That's why we have a co-equal third br. . . .oh, never mind.

A little bit of my faith in humanity, and a Democratic electorate, is restored. Well done NYC!

I fought to live in a neighborhood in Charleston that would make me a constituent of Jim Clyburn. I don't regret that, but as a former New Yorker, I am baffled.

Hey @nytimes.com, "ideological flexibiity" is a charming way to say they don't believe in one single goddamn thing. But why give them that grace, when they have none for others??
