I’ve joined twitter so I can fight Ryan Zinke’s plans to destroy our public lands. We must fight to protect the lands we have fought for. #vetsvszinke @VetVoiceFound thinkprogress.org/ryan-zinke-sup…
ICE is developing an unfortunate reputation for thuggery. This will likely not help. I sense a repeat of McNamara’s 100K - ICE Run Amok open.substack.com/pub/mmansour/p…
In the military the Commander is responsible for everything that happens or fails to happen. After six months that is absolutely true. 47 just hit the six month anniversary. POTUS. You now own your own ____ show. No more whining or blaming your betters. You got the buck.
Watching FF45 in the Oval Office. Noticed his new decor. When we occupied Saddam Hussein’s palace in the Baghdad Green Zone, the troops comment of the Republican palace was Saudi Gaudy. Now. The American White House is …Saudi Gaudy. And the Fed’s building makeover? Modest.

‘Have you no sense of decency, sir?’ by Army Counsel Joseph Welch to Senator Joseph McCarthy was the beginning of the end of extremist McCarthy’s reign of indignity. Time to hear this from every US Senator directed at Mr Trump. Mr President. Have you no sense of decency sir?
Reminds me of that song. Where have all the real men gone? Why Are So Many Men Wearing Bright Blue Suits Now? nytimes.com/2025/06/30/fas… via @NYTimes
Secretary Hegseth. Do you remember Sean Spicer?
Just watched the Pentagon briefing on Iran mission. Truly a tale of two briefers. One, a breathless, defensive, grievance loaded Fox News talk show host. The other, a sober, knowledgeable, adult and superb Air Force General. General Caine gave us all a lesson on BDA patience.
A difficult post but necessary.
🚨🚨A Trump political rally at Fort Bragg. Soldiers cheering attacks on the press and elected officials. And silence from U.S. Army leadership. MG (Ret.) Paul Eaton calls it what it is: a stain on the military—and urges top brass to correct course. Now.

So much for ‘No Cards Zelensky’ When Trump uttered the insult, President Zelensky knew his assault on the archers was imminent. Ukrainian Warrior meets (fill in your best shot). Ukraine launches massive drone strike on air bases deep inside Russia axios.com/2025/06/01/ukr…
First Trump/Hegseth attack veteran employment and the VA. Now they go after where our troops live, to fight the fake border mission. Take Congress back!Pentagon Diverts $1 Billion from Army Barracks to Fund Border Mission military.com/daily-news/202…
Watched Newark Mayor Ras Baraka do his job, only to be attacked by federal forces. Message to state and local leaders: Stand your ground with overwhelming armed force. Make your way in your jurisdiction and brush aside federal overreach. Baraka led the way. States rights.
The next President - be he or she a Democrat or real (non-MGA) Republican - will have to spend the first 100 days undoing the chaos and national security damage of 47’s 1st 100 days. Then the apology tour to reestablish America’s standing in the world. You know. Real greatness.
Watching Kim Jong Un holding a staff meeting in the Roosevelt Room was revealing. Hang on. Now told it was Trump (FF47). So the US Cabinet collectively behaved as Kim Jong Un’s staff. Fawning. Lying. Exaggerating. Surreal watching Americans behaving like third world puppets.
