"As the commander of military forces in E Africa, I asked the American Forces Network (TV) to replace Fox news during meal hours. Why? Because they were inimical to America's outreach overseas. Put troops in jeopardy. Made my job harder. And they now have accomplices." Admiral Mike Franken 2021

The location of the plaque that was just hung, is in a place that it will not be visible to the public. While I am thankful for this first step, our lawsuit continues until they plaque is hung in accordance with the law.

Kamala Harris: "I predicted a lot about what's happening right now. I'm not here to say 'I told you so,' but we did see it coming."

Why was this story on the front page of the UK’s Daily Telegraph — but NOT America’s leading newspapers?

Why is Trump live-tweeting his own victory lap over a war that’s still unfolding? And telling the world, including Iran, his attack plans. Every serious military leader just cringed.

It is amazing youd give up a first term job in the SENATE for a brief stint atop a game show host’s secret police police

They tore down the memorials for Epstein’s victims. We’re rebuilding them. This Sunday for International Women’s Day, bring flowers to ABQ to lay them together to honor the memory of the girls whose lives were stolen, and whose stories were ignored for too long. 🌸 bravewomen.us/newmexico

Who taught Trump this stupid tug of war thing with his handshakes? Fred? Roy Cohn? Epstein? I guess it’s supposed to be some kind of dumb power move. This morning with the President of Paraguay.

Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions.

DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate — and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August. He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA. The grift continues.
