Trump’s $1,776 ‘warrior dividend’ repurposed from military housing aid

Being passed around:

Kind of interesting that “Turtle Island Liberation Front’s” Facebook page wasn’t created until October 4. Also interesting that at least 3 former senior FBI officials were asked by Raw Story about this group and not one had ever heard of them. A cynical person might draw some conclusions from that.

Trump is a bottomless pit of hatred and narcissism. He’s a vile pig without a pig’s intelligence or class. www.detroitnews.com/story/news/p...

The extreme and psychotic overreaction by Trump and Stephen Miller to Democratic military vets in the Senate and House urging service members to remember that their oath is to the Constitution and not a man tells us a lot about the Trump admin’s plans for the military.

www.upi.com/Top_News/US/... Heritage Foundation acknowledges white nationalist Nick Fuentes is one of their “own people:” “The Heritage Foundation didn’t become the intellectual backbone of the conservative movement by canceling our own people…” Roberts said.

I love this.

OPINION: Today, Donald Trump presides over his own Murder Incorporated, less a government than a death squad.

As Trump desperately seeks a distraction from the Epstein files, the US military needs to remember that any order to invade Venezuela without full congressional authorization is a patently unlawful order which the armed forces are duty-bound to disobey.

Under a fascist regime, “Centrists” are complicit.

In an Age of Fascism, a moderate is someone who thinks a little bit of fascism is OK.

Any “Blue wave” is meaningless unless it sweeps so-called “moderate” Democrats out of office.

Excessive force. PERIOD! They called them “violent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor. 📌 Keep sharing videos, everyone, because they’re evidence.

Public procurement records show agencies such as ICE, CBP, ATF, TSA, the SEC, the Secret Service, the State Department, the U.S. Marshals, and the IRS have purchased ARC data. But opting-out isn't as difficult as we had thought. Here's how: www.404media.co/how-to-opt-o...

As usual with Trump, this is all about optics regardless of risk or benefit. If it makes him look like a strongman, he’s all in.

Not a good week for ICE Klaus Barbie.

If you are in Chicago at the ICE Protests remember to report "ICY Conditions" on Waze and Google maps. Keep everyone informed.

“Authoritarianism is as American as slavery, as internment camps, as police brutality, as voter suppression. To fight it, white people have to stop pretending government oppression arrived overnight and start dismantling the systems that have been incubating it all along.”

All too true.

NEW: Trump told top U.S. military officials it's time to turn armed forces inward against an unspecified "enemy from within" — alarming comments that come as he increasingly attempts to use the military as a domestic police force and claims to have designated some Americans as domestic terrorists.

“My friends, not only are we living in Hitler’s America—where the federal government is censoring the N-word (Nazi) to stop us all from saying it—we are also living in George Washington’s nightmare.” - from the article

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

Republicans have no issues using they/them when talking about what one single person did to Charlie Kirk.

Charlie Kirk was a horrible human being who said many abhorrent things. Murder is wrong. Those two statements are not mutually exclusive.

Charlie Kirk isn’t a martyr. He’s a casualty of the violence he incited.

WE ARE NOT THE SAME! Stephen Miller said that Kirk's last message to him was a call to dismantle radical left organizations fomenting violence across the US and he will make this happen in Kirk's name. Right extremists were responsible for 75% of all extremist murders in the US from 2013 till now. 🤨
