Husband, dad, V Vet. All in all been pretty lucky. Profoundly dismayed by US's rapid decline. I'll not live to see the recovery. Even more sadly, my grands are not likely to either

WAR CRIMES. At the highest level!

Yes. It's part of a continuum, not an aberration.

The principles of kakistocracy apply to warfare as well.

Lawyer: You don't regret that people might have lost income?

Cavanaugh (DOGE): No, I think it was more important to reduce the federal deficit from two trillion dollars to close to zero.

Lawyer: Did you reduce the federal deficit?

Cavanaugh: No, we didn't.

A couple hundred kids, but the price of Wheaties is way down.

Trump literally has no understanding of risk at all. He does not think what he is doing is risky because he is completely unable to separate reality from whatever self-serving lie he last uttered.

If you are watching Trump's presser right now, you are seeing beyond reasonable doubt a person not mentally suited for any position of responsibility. Even running a small store.

GOP members of the House and Senate: You are seeing this too.

Most observers of power realize the difficulties in getting and giving complete and accurate information. The powerful often don't actually want it and those with information are at risk when giving it

Most citizens are not political, don't pay attention, are naive, are not educated or have magical ideas. Money to advertise very simple talking points controls much.

Yea, kinetic conflict. You know, sort of like football.

<Don't call it a war, don't call it a Special Military Operation, that's already taken, don't say Vietnam Conflict; Kinetic Conflict, yeah, that's it.>

Trump apparently spoke with Vladimir Putin today but didn't mention that Russia is giving Iran intelligence that could harm our troops. You'd think that would be more of a big deal.

It is a disgrace. One wishes they could feel the chest compression of a nearby incoming and have smelled rotting bodies, but I fear it would not help. We are protected by two oceans and imagine the empire is immortal. They don't see the rampant fester.

The vast middle class are comfortable living comfortable lives, no cultural memory of war on US soil so half don't even vote and few stay informed. Add to that the fatal flaw of the Senate, RW media and ability of rich to buy votes.

β€œConservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit:
There must be in-groups whom the law protectes but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.
There is nothing more or else to it, and there never has been, in any place or time.”

They are torturing and killing people in our concentration camps, and I wish more people were actively bothered by that

Agreed. But actually where do they begin? The treasonous list is long. Getting into the felonies will consume half the country's lawyers
