I used to think you just got caught up in a tough spot. With perspective, I see you were a large part of the problem.
The real smash and grab… 🚨 Social Security is on the chopping block. Thanks to Trump’s so-called “One Big Beautiful Bill,” retirees are now staring down $18,000-a-year benefit cut in just seven years. Seniors who paid in their whole lives are left holding the bag. We’re…
I served with Colonel DA Sims in combat & peacetime in Iraq & Europe. I watched him deploy his division to Poland in the early stage of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. He is a brilliant commander, values-based leader & selfless soldier He should be a 4-star commander.
“Hegseth’s actions could shape the military’s top ranks for years. His insistence on absolute loyalty, backed with repeated threats of polygraphs, creates uncertainty and mistrust that threaten to undermine the readiness and effectiveness of the force” nytimes.com/2025/07/26/us/…
Brendan Carr. Authoritarian thug.
Remarkable quote from Trump's head of the FCC: "government officials allowed [broadcast media outlets] to dictate the political narrative." Yes, that's how the 1st Amendment works. Media outlets - even broadcast ones - tell their stories, and the govt does not dictate to them…
“The passing of time”
Senator Thom Tillis, the NC Republican who cast the deciding vote to confirm Mr. Hegseth, this month called him ill-suited to lead the Pentagon. “With the passing of time, I think it’s clear he’s out of his depth as a manager of a large, complex organization,” Tillis told CNN.
The DNC is launching a digital ad campaign pressuring the GOP to release the Epstein files — targeting vulnerable Republicans in their home districts.
CONWAY: “The notion that they would give Ghislaine Maxwell clemency is just insane. What could she possibly say that would be believable? — It really just goes to the complete lack of shame by people that want to defend Trump no matter what.”
As part of the $200 million deal Columbia made with the Trump administration, an outside monitor will assure the school complies. To critics, this represents an unprecedented governmental intrusion into the affairs of a private university. wapo.st/45cecN5
We did this to him. This government. This country. We condemned him to this torture because he dared to follow our own laws and seek refuge here. Utterly sick.
Epstein accuser Maria Farmer on Ghislaine Maxwell: “I’ve never met a more predatory, terrifying human being in my entire life. She’s a very dangerous person. The woman is not a victim, she’s a victimizer.”
Trump is a wideopen racist ... in our faces. Trump wants people to know that he is a racist. Trump doesn't want any doubt. His cult - folks, they are ALL racists. Stop making excuses & being naive.
Why do you think Trump didn’t give Tim Scott or any other person of color a place in his Cabinet? 🤬
The. Fix. Is. In. Todd Blanche and Donald Trump will free the architect and recruiter of Epstein’s pedophile ring. Ghislaine Handed DOJ 100 Names in Shameless Pardon Quid Pro Quo thedailybeast.com/ghislaine-hand… via @thedailybeast
That is false The Democrats have an agenda and a policy proposal or 2 on every conceivable issue But it takes a brain and patience to listen People are pissed at Democrats for not putting Trump in jail & they have been manipulated on race & trans issues
South Park's show about Trump is showing up in graffiti. Los Angeles, California.
Exactly. It's horrific what happened to them, and Trump's DOJ is looking to bribe a convicted trafficker to lie about Trump's involvement.
Listen MAGAs, if Trump's DOJ was actually interested in justice they'd be interviewing the 1000 victims of the Esptein clients instead of giving immunity to Esptein's accomplice

🚨 Metallica forced Trump’s Pentagon to remove a drone video that used “Enter Sandman” without permission, exposing the Defense Department to unnecessary legal missteps. open.substack.com/pub/theintelle…
Just a thought: what if we stopped measuring the economy by the state of the stock market and started measuring it based on how many people are housed and clothed and fed?
When I see Donald Trump's personality disorders (including narcissism and sociopathy) manifest themselves, the two behaviors that most jump out at me are his enormous sense of entitlement, and his overwhelming need to portray grandiosity. Any behaviorist will tell you that…
